  Did your congregation have cliques?

  did your congregation have cliques?.

  usually centred around two competing elders (or the elder's wife).

  it could made obvious by whether you got to answer in the wt study.

  the main reason most got the vaccine was to protect others.

  now they’re being told they can spread it just as easily as the unvaccinated.

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses subtly directing the brothers to have homes with attics?

  My initial reaction; which way does fire go?

  and, what about them who dont not have attics/basements..eh? As most jw are in s*** jobs due to reliquishing the best their society could offer them, well, they cant afford a house with eith attic or basement.

  Perhaps the gb are pushing for these to make a series of rabbit holes for them to use when the military boot them out of the NY palace.?

  2/2022 WT: a repeated request & more doubletalk

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know the now famous quote, "all of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not.

  " well, this point is regurgitated in the latest wt, along with yet another new bunker scene:.

  "during the great tribulation, we may receive instructions that seem strange, impractical, or illogical .

  So what might happen (Its-just-around-the-corner") is going to be so profound that as we are a bunch of brain dead dip-sticks we must obey now or we will forget how to obey then..

  and .."You will likely do.." seems to me to be some sort of legalistic cop out for them; as if there would be any redress after the gt that is.

  ---------------

  and what with the bunker think anyway? Does the almighty and angels have to have jw in a bunker to protect them? What about homes that dont have basements?

  The WT brings up the theme of fleeing

  1. jw
  2. friends

  https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-study-january-2022/those-seeking-jehovah-will-lack-nothing-good/.

  this article explains what a modern time application to fleeing might involve in the prophecy jesus told about the last days.. that is a timely reminder.

  i think it will become soon possible to flee to australia from the mark of the beast.

  or the wt/gb will create some international scandal in an attempt to frighten the masses back into the fold.

  As Australia has been a source of so much distress to the gb with the CARC and the wt here having, been forced, to join the NRS they will excommunicate Australia.

  Screen time or Green time..

  by zachias in

  1. social
  2. family

  "girls who spent less than an hour on screens and boys who spent less than 90 minutes on screens were not negatively impacted by it.

  but at higher amounts of screen time, their life satisfaction dropped significantly—they were less happy with their lives, and it got worse the more time they spent.

  if screen time went above 105 minutes per day for boys or 75 minutes per day for girls, their mental health also got worse.".

  direct quote from Epoch times, I believe it deserved a bigger audience. Positive comments welcome.
