If nepotism and favouritism are qualifications .
Then yes many meet them,as others have said there was always a few that genuinely did the best they could to be helpful, which often didn't make them popular among the body .
in my opinion, in a body of elders let’s say with 7 elders , 2 or 3 were pretty much on the ball.
they were reasonable, intelligent and moderate.
the others were either extremely extreme about everything or very liberal.. did you have qualified older men or were they all lousy to you?

how could he be, regardless of how god impregnated mary, as she was a sinful human just like the rest of us according to the bible.. mary was subjected to the adamic sin like all other humans, so jesus had to at least be part sinner himself.. to believe otherwise is just deluding oneself imho .. the only way jesus could have been really without sin is if god created him the same way he created adam.. what do you think ?

Is there any eyewitness of this Jesus outside of the Bible ?
the watchtower—study edition | september 2021. study article 39. when a loved one leaves jehovah.
2 think how heartbroken jehovah must have been when members of his own angelic family turned their back on him!
(jude 6) and imagine how hurt he was at seeing his beloved people, the israelites, rebel against him time and again.
The picture shows a husband and father leaving ,why because he has found the ttatt and simply no longer wants to be a JW , but he is not happy but will respect his wife choice to continue to be a JW, because of her unreasonable behaviour and being manipulated by the elders and other Jws that he is to being viewed as a spiritually dangerous individual and he was forced to leave for simply exercising his basic human rights and because of that will suffer from having no or limited contact with his children.
Many other couples have different beliefs and still love each other and keep the family unit together this shows how manipulative and controlling the JW org is , and happy to destroy the family arrangement.
jehovah’s witnesses claim to be the only religion that has the truth.
they claim to be representing god himself.
can you think of anything that you could use to prove that the witnesses do not have the truth?.
That my generation (late 60s) would never finish school, start a job,get married have a family etc .and now the overlapping generation's have left school , have a job and married with children.

Upsetting the locals again .
my mom studied with me in the paradise book before i went to kindergarten.
i remember the book vividly.
it creeped me out as a kid.
Occasionally when my dad did study with us it was the study edition of the watchtower , this was in the 70s , the different covenant's and types and anti types etc , sometimes even on the Friday night when circuit assembly included a Friday so we were prepared for the Saturday.
i know this recent video has been talked about already but i just watched it and here are a few things that got me annoyed as usual:.
splane says that if a bible student says he saw some negative information from apostates and asks us to explain it, we shouldn't look at it or address anything specifically, but instead we should tell them to go to meetings and hear what we have to say about ourselves and also tell them to befriend people at the hall.
for any person with integrity and/or intelligence, this is not a satisfactory answer.
What is projection? ... Ed, LCSW, projection refers to unconsciously taking unwanted emotions or traits you don't like about yourself and attributing them to someone else. A common example is a cheating spouse who suspects their partner is being unfaithful.
The gb are projecting ,they now know that what they have been teaching and preaching is a lie ,they know that they can't just say "the Bible says " and it's believed and true , and they simply cannot defend their teachings any longer, so the only option to them is to try and discredit anyone who can prove them to be lying as apostates and anyone else who questions them judges, lawyers and jurys are untrustworthy as well.
Hopefully this will be shared in the upcoming court cases against the gb with all those involved.
