i just turned 62 and celebrated my first birthday at a local restaurant.
nothing exotic, just draft beer and a burger.
i've been using my spare time to make my community a better place to visit.
My wifes parents bought into this crap hook line and sinker. He quit a good job with a pension to go to where the need was great.
Boy that sucks.
I'm glad I was born in the age of the internet.
I'm 30 and technically I can retire now, but I love my work.

Do jws in the USA get a ------"Get Out of Jail FREE" -----Card!
Maybe the USA is where all the pedos with money to donate hang out
i think she has the happiest laugh i’ve ever heard!.
Does she want the people to come or does she not? I wish she would make up her mind.
Here is you answer!
i ran across a pretty early treatise.
we were all taught that "real" christianity was lost to history and was only restored once russell and then rutherford restored it so that the wt could be appointed as god's "mouthpiece".
but, aristides wrote to the emperor hadrian and gave a pretty good synopsis of core christian belief in 125 ad.

I find it interesting that the author doesn't put a name to the gospel. It's just the gospel.
Pick ONE.....
Gospel
of Thomas – The Gospel of Thomas
Gospel of Marcion – 2nd century,
Gospel of Basilides – composed
in Egypt around 120 to 140 AD,
Gospel of Truth (Valentinian) – mid-2nd century, , most likely in the form of a dialogue between Jesus and his disciples
Gospel of Mary – 2nd century
Gospel of Judas – 2nd century
Greek Gospel of the Egyptians – second quarter of the 2nd century
Gospel of Philip
Gospel of the Twelve – a Syriac language gospel titled the Gospel of the Twelve,
Gospel of Perfection
Coptic Gospel of the Egyptians – also called Holy Book of the Great Invisible Spirit
pastor russell: follow the money.
charles t. russell, age of 13, joined the congregational church (dumped presbyterian).. he went (like girl scouts are sent out with cookies to sell) door to door to raise money for the church.. russell hated fundraising.
he had to ask poor people to part with their money.
Jehovah's Witnesses become deluded with years of ideological ideas of the WT Corporation
Charles Russell became deluded with his own imaginations!
Both of them reach the end of their journey-----with a wasted life!
i always understood the term 'black' (or 'black', if you write for the guardian) to refer to sub-saharan africans or people of sub-saharan african origin.. but, perhaps in a rush to embrace victimhood, more and more people are today are using the term black to refer to other people.. so, apparently barack obama is black - 'the first black president of the united states'.. and lewis hamilton is supposedly the only black driver in formula one.. and jordan peele is a black film director, apparently.. and then there's meghan markle.. there may also be people of pakistani heritage who refer to themselves as black.. and, sorry to say, it's all a load of bullsh*t.. barack obama, lewis hamilton, jordan peel, halle berry and meghan markle are all biracial (mixed-race).
they're not black.
disregarding the other half of their ethnic heritage is intellectually dishonest.. .
White or Black?
so you all probably heard that the awake magazine is back, .
https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/?contentlanguagefilter=en&pubfilter=g&yearfilter=.
and one of my jw relatives said they were told by some elders that meetings and field service will resume before the end of the year.. they said this covid virus was a test, like when the romans breached jerusalem and retreated, only to come back later and sack jerusalem.
. So this week he said "the organization" is recommending getting the vaccine, so now he will be getting it
So what happened to all the research he did that made him believe he didn't need to get the vaccine???
These jws really trust 8 old men with their medical advice, some of who never even finished high school because they decided to pioneer.

Who made the announcement above?
This is what the post says, It was a letter being read to the Congregation.
The letter was more detailed but that’s what I got from it. Maybe I should ask for a copy of the letter. Feel free to add more if you also heard the announcement.
And Bethel will begin lifting the lockdown soon.

The latest news on reddit, One post said they read a letter that the lock down will be ending soon.
However this past Sunday they made another announcement saying they’re not gonna tell you what to do, but that a significant number of the bethel family has gotten the vaccine and they’re now able to resume semi normal activities. And Bethel will begin lifting the lockdown soon.
