a jehovah's witness has agreed not to show his son religious cartoons and has been banned from taking the six-year-old to some church events because it could cause him "emotional damage".
the man is embroiled in a family court dispute with his estranged wife and has been barred by a court from taking the little boy to jehovah's witness assemblies, annual conventions and memorials.. district judge malcolm dodds also said that the father had agreed not to show his son "jehovah's witness cartoons", a decision he described as "wise".

I’m glad the Father is trying, mine never did, at least to my knowledge...
Its not easy to be a parent as there are so many ways to make a mistake. You can never teach what you don’t know.
At least this guy is taking a stand.
I’ve heard JW parents laud Caleb and Sophia as “Brainwashing at its finest..” as they set their toddler in front an electronic device.

my uber cousin and wife are going back to wallkill this weekend for the annual meeting since they have a daughter and son in law in the inner sanctum so they are always invited.
cousin said it was going to be broadcast from patterson to wallkill.
anyone hear anything else about subject matter etc?.
Maybe they started keeping track of the Annual Meeting with Solar years? We all know that can throw off your timing....

i just finished looking through the circuit overseer manual, so here are some highlights.
first up, regarding circuit assemblies:.
if a brother is so extremely overweight that others would be distracted if he had a part on the program, good judgment would need to be used in deciding whether to give him an assignment.
Any organization that has so many arbitrary rules is going to alienate their best and brightest. They won’t attract anyone from the outside that has any type of intelligence, and if you happen to be born into the organization you’re going to wake up and leave if you have any self-esteem and intelligence.
That just leaves behind and Idiocracy, so is it any wonder their “best” are not great??

As a divorcee who married young I can tell you this: Screw cleaning and cooking/spiritual and medically obese/doesn’t care cause Jesus is coming, AND..... go for hot and fit because you can always get take out and hire a Maid..

Who knows? The GB are just old, delusional, irrelevant men and their wives are equally delusional.

if this has been posted before i apologize.
this about sums up what the grovelling body is looking to do!
I think the Monthly Broadcast will eventually morph into a Mister Rogers style presentation. Once the lawsuits hit with full force from multiple sources, assuming the smartest ( relatively speaking ) Dubs leave the cult, only the Idiocracy will remain.
I like to imagine Lett getting the latest spiritual food from a puppet that pops out of a tree, or perhaps King Friday. ( Jesus??)
DD 🤔
is it your understanding that any jw can have holy spirit indwell them or is that an experience a part of the anointing that the wt teaches is reserved for the 144,000?.
please provide references if you can..
I don’t have time or the inclination to look at the literature anymore, but here’s the Holy Spirit in a nutshell....
( Hey!!! Someone get me out of this thing!! )
Err...yeah... So all Dubs can be influenced by the Spirit. That’s what makes them go to meetings, and go in service, and contribute money. The Spirit is why they are Dubs in the first place as the GB say the Spirit draws righteously disposed ones to Da Troof.
BUT......
The Spirit does not influence of lead any non-anointed Dub, or any anointed Dub in any way contrary to the “Genuinely Anointed” Dubs at World HQ. ONLY the GB have the Spirit operating on them in a unique way regarding the continuing revelation of Jeehoober’s purpose.
How do we know the GB are the only Dubs who are receiving messages via Holy Spirit? Because they are at HQ! Why are they at HQ? They are “Genuine Anointed” and not mentally and emotionally unbalanced. How do we know? Because they are at HQ! Why? Because they are “Genuine Anointed!” How do we know? Because Jeehoober’s spirit acts on them in a special way. How do we know? Because they are the GB at HQ! .....🤪
Its pretty easy to see that the Spirit does whatever the GB/Legal Department says it does.
