Good to know. There's an awful lot of information on JW policies that affect every community. One on one doesn't get it done the way a newspaper article can.
It's gonna be a TV News story...I'm interested to see how they're going to frame it. Might be interviewed tomorrow. She's trying to work out logistics. They have a sister station here in my town. I'm also only about 1 and 1/2 hour away from Orlando...

Hi Nikki...
Facebook has some great exjw groups for support and some of them organize meetups.
South Carolina is a pretty cool state! We visited Charleston last year and had a great time (even though it was hot as a $20 pistol.) Callie's Biscuits was AMAZING. Definitely on my "last meal" list.

From my understanding when I was at bethel it was only brothers that could go to China due to it being under ban. The brother we knew was also not married and in his fifties.
My sister in law served in China as a single sister. Her parents were there, but she was in a different city than them.

She is likely using the term missionary in a colloquial sense so that the concept can be grasped by mainstream readers.
New York Times readers aren’t going to know what a “need-greater” is.

What is wrong with Hollyweird?
by LoveUniHateExams inso, the trailer for the new batwoman series was released a few days ago.. proof positive that hollywood, cw network and other movie/tv producers live in their own bubble and are continuing to push their sjw agenda.. the trailer itself has unbelievable levels of cringe at times.. batwoman happens to be a woman (if you hadn't already guessed) and an out and proud lesbian.
of course, there's nothing wrong with any of this, it just feels so forced.
within a few seconds of the trailer you get some girl-on girl action, just to hammer home the sexuality thing.

I hate "woke media", but this just looks like your average run of the mill CW show. Arrow was cringey, Flash is cringey, just about all their shows are cringey. This isn't anything new.

Ladies First
by snugglebunny ini know a lady who says she feels demeaned if a man walks on the outside or opens a door for her or stands aside to let her pass.
i just think it's good manners.
being a gentleman has nothing to do with equality in my opinion..

A random lady got upset with me once about holding the door for her, and I told her the truth. I said, “Lady, I hold the door for everyone regardless of gender. It’s the polite thing to do for others. If you don’t know this, I’m sorry for you.”

Did you ever needlessly quit ajob as a witness ?
by Steel inmy wife has a friend ( male ) with a six month old baby who just decided to be unemployed and had a fairly good paying job.
without giving up too much information it seems quite weird.
the reason i ask is because i have been in meetings and assemblies and some of the advice they like to give doesn't seem very intelligence about being a productive member of society.

I quit a job one time, because a coworker asked me out on a date, and I wanted to go on a date with her. So I decided to quit in order to flee temptation.

Hitfilm Express is a great, free video editor.
It's very similar to Adobe Premiere Pro in it's interface.
I am a professional video producer for corporate business videos and used to have an exjw YouTube channel.
If I didn't have the money for Adobe Premiere Pro, I'd be using Hitfilm Express.
