a small incident happened to me today that has triggered me to say this.. how many of you have seen that jw are fairly hopeless and being anywhere on time.. an obvious one is the families that never miss a meeting and never miss arriving late with resultant fuss.
.
but in day to day things as well.arriving late for a paid job.. leaving early, ditto.. not turning up for a bbq without even a phone call.. being in all things disorganized.. and, how many of you have seen the above become the norm in people once they become jw that were not that way before....

he has a tv show coming up in 2022!.

So long as he does this on the broadest basis; With any exposure as international.
ivy hill congregation of jehovah's witnesses is currently suing the pa department of human services.
it requests "a declaration that its elders are entitled to" clergy privilege, or, in the alternative,.
to the extent that the clergyman privilege is determined to exclude its elders on the basis that they are "members of [a] religious organization[] in which members other than the leader thereof are deemed clergymen or ministers," the court declare the statute to be unconstitutional.
Yes they obey. sort of.
If the law does not require m.r. then they dont report and in wt logic(!) they consider they are obeying the laws.
re clergy privilige.--They tried to pull that one on at the CARC in 2015 here in Australia and it flopped, big time. As the justice said you claim one thing in your publications then want to claim the oppositte (when the going gets hot) you cant have it both ways.
as the title says, we are nearly at the end of the 2nd year of the 2020’s, and already jw org is not only a car crash, but an absolute train wreck.. i’ve watched the annual meeting 2021 already, and it seems the gb are in fighting, morris openly disagreeing with lett, that is massive, and it’s something that has largely not been commented on by this community.
covid-19 is not going anywhere, any trial meetings will surely be shut down, now omicron is doing the rounds.. it looks highly likely we will see a second negative growth year.
“young ones” are waking up by the masses.
Hi to you all. what a great posting.and,
consider the value of any wt figures..
"Lies damned lies and statistics"....
-----------------------
and as the social chaos in the US winds ever tighter around the masses the wt will reflect this in their pronouncements. Keep in mind folks that the wt in its entirety by thought by every culture is first and foremost parochial ..American. If folks in the us cant see this there are nations around the world who can.
So I fear that should the wts/gb suddenly be "inspired" to call on all jw to do a death to the masses campaign it will be seen in the US as another weirdo spin off from the current chaos happening there. In other countries it might not be seen so charitably and the wt might get the martyrs they seem to want periodically.
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.
yep.

definitely.
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.

it seems if you have an attic, you'll be safest there..
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.?

smiddy 3, you have done it again.
