WT brags about suing indigenous peoples and winning!
by Slidin Fast ini know we get a bit cynical and hard boiled about the exploits of wt inc. but this takes the biscuit.
apparently these ecuadorian indigenous people objected to being targeted by the sect.
so wt inc rode in and guess what?

WHY THE WATCHTOWER TREATS MEN LIKE DONKEYS OF BURDEN
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/tppmprdxxzw?si=shh5vkmuzfp6c9_m.
so the watchtower has come out with sn article, study article 2 in their newly released study watchtower magazine for 2025 and we see from the start how they keep perpetuating the same old outdated narrative that when it comes to marriages the husband is the one at fault, we'll thats i think when i read paragraph from this article where i man has to work on a whole list of things and not once the wife is instructed to do any of these things, but let's just read together paragraph 14:.
what are these steps?

"Apparently, there is a problem with a lot of JW men abusing their wives both physically and verbally or why the article?"
I learned many years ago that when a WT article says "True Christians don't", it really means "A lot of JWs are".

There's no reason why they couldn't bring back the book studies and make them zoom only. Weren't they abandoned due to the high risk of CSA incidents in private homes?
BTW, what is the Tuesday night meeting that I "witness", as I pass the Kingdom Hall, on my way to a different church's Bible study? Lots of cars in the Kingdom Hall carpark, and people getting out of them.

Why November the 14th? Is there some financial deadline that the WT is working towards? Perhaps part of the tax/payout cycle?
Boogerman, great suggestions on your part. 👍👌🙏

The new shunning, same as the old shunning. 🙄 I hope that the Norwegian Government doesn't fall for this trick.

by ukpimo inrealistically, between now and 2034, what do you think watchtower will change or reform to appear more mainstream?
what business opportunities do you see watchtower getting involved in?.
my predictions are as follows: .

"I wonder how Jehovah’s Witnesses will respond if 20 years pass and the end has not happened?"
The way they always have. Watchtowerites have been expecting the end within a very short time for about 140 years.

Watch Tower PA sues Russia in DC district over confiscation of Bethel
by Corney inthe watch tower society of pennsylvania filed a lawsuit on september 3, 2024, naming as defendants the russian federation, the russian ministry of health, and the almazov national medical research center.
unfortunately, i can't access the case documents, including the complaint.
i would appreciate if someone with an active pacer account could make them available.. anyway, it is enough to know the almazov center is one of the entities sued by the wts to say what this case is about.

Most organisations, both religious and secular, would probably "take the L" materially in order to protect their people living in those situations. The WT have no such scruples.

Loss of a Jehovah’s Witness who I considered a friend
by Fallen_Winter ini have known a jehovah’s witness for approximately 15 years and i have considered her a friend although i know that jehovah’s witnesses cannot have friends who are not jehovah’s witnesses.
approximately two years ago, i was going through a very difficult time and i asked my friend if we could have bible study.
she said yes and we have been studying the bible since.

"However, pioneers (including ‘auxiliary’ pioneers) still have an hour requirement, so they have to report their time."
She was probably happy to while away pleasant hours with the OP in order to fill out her hours, but as speculated throughout this thread, it sounds like someone has pulled the plug on that. It's an ingenious system, in its own sinister way. By requiring the reporting of exactly what is being done where and with whom, it can highlight possible friendships blossoming outside the hall, and such things can be quashed accordingly.

It's all digital these days, even in the mainstream churches. But I imagine that there's a better chance to guilt people into dropping a bit more into the contribution box if they're physically present. It's probably some psychological principle of which the WT is well aware.
Is trolley/cart ministry for the privileged few? I see a few people manning those in town. At the Sunday market two days ago I saw a rather substantial group gathered around the "Free Bible Course" sign. I haven't seen anyone door to door for a few months, though.
