in the last 4 months my eyes have been opened to ttatt, my biggest issue is that the elders have been grooming me to appoint me as an elder.

Forum Owner and Member Integrity
by Simon insome people recently raised concerns about security of the site relating to whether forum members could be watchtower plants trying to obtain information about people.
apparently, this was because a previous forum that was setup was either owned by or later handed over to someone who used it to collect personal information about people which was then used to harrass them.
i don't know all the details, i'm just paraphrasing what i've heard and recognize that it's a concern to some people.. i want to first of all put people's minds at rest: i've been running this site for what will be 13 years next month.

Copyright of Food at the Proper Time?
by The Song Remains The Same in1) i wonder why (or how) the wts can claim copyright over the food it dispenses, given that it says the food is spirit directed and from jehovah?
surely the copyright should reside with jehovah himself?
can you copyright god's word(s)?.

long time lurker (3-4 years) first time poster
by Patient-dude inhey i have come to love some of the discussions on here and the information.
i am currently awake and have no plans to fade, in my case i am patient enough to in time become an elder to at least help the younger friends here in my area, in the sense of helping them wake up/if elder have their back..

JWgift.org - the UK's Watchtower-sponsored website that "should not be seen as the soliciting of funds in any way"...
by cedars in...even though it has a massive button on the home page saying "make a donation.".
https://www.jwgift.org/welcome.aspx.

Saying this is not a solicitation is like saying "the disfellowshipping arrangement is loving"
Another bald faced lie !
FYI this site was registered ten years ago .
