As an unbaptised publisher in good standing I separated myself in 1991 from what turned out to be a high control organisation claiming to be the Abrahamic gods "non-profit" "charity" "prophet" and purveyors of "Truth"....later in 2014 and moreso in 2019, I decided to join the "frey" of the exjws to show my support for both victims, and survivors of abuse.
I saw Lloyd as a voice I could relate to and promote as someone who was calm and well expressed.
While I did notice a few quirks that indicated to me a likelihood of an underlying mental health issue..(such as his tendency to rock back and forth)..I was not overly concerned; because of the type of people who were promoting him and working with him.
However the rumours of his harsh encounters with CSA survivors and reports from close friends of Lloyd behaving badly was becoming too loud to ignore...and then Kim Silvio's exposé came out.
While I still wanted to be cautious about how I reacted to this potentially mentally unwell man's actions, and I didn't like the way it appeared to disintegrate into a dog fight....after a few days and weeks it became abundantly clear that I was wrong to continue subscribing to Lloyd Evan's channel or trying to see his side with any benefit of doubt.
I, for one just thought he had a shit personality, like so many Exjw's who were and always will be assholes; the evidence was overwhelming on that front....but what is dynamically transpiring from the man himself, as we post our responses and comments will give everyone in earshot a clear picture of what and who Lloyd Evans really is.

Hi Atlantis👋
Doing really well, thank you.
It certainly is a challenge for many to stay home and safe as much as possible while infection numbers are high , and only venture out as necessary with a mask and hand sanitizer handy, being careful to be aware of where your hands have been etc.
Like most vaccines, there will be mild side effects for some and others may be allergic, but if a majority are inoculated against the virus, that will provide a protection for those who can't have the vaccine....just like the polio vaccine.
I've been quite busy with work, family and other commitments, but we've just had some time off work enjoyed an extended long weekend for Australia Day and had time to relax.
Looking forward to your next round with a smile🍻🍻
Warm regards,
RayoFlight2014.

Thanks again Petra, I'm amazed they didn't discard the brown "Reasoning" book.
Page 200 and page 234 and the argumentation in between, under the heading "last days" has become untenable surely?

Members or Individuals
by Dazed_Confussed inany truth to the thought that instead of being considered "members" of the jw organization, that they will shortly be considered only as "individuals" of the organization?.

RayoFlight2014
Watchtower has always kept two sets of books, in one way or another.
Unless they are expecting to, and have accepted they will lose their non-profit, charity status; they will have to maintain membership and have a means to positively identify those active or "financial" members...that means is currently the field service reports - AKA "The Publisher". "The Member". Same thing. That is what identifies an individual as an active member, and is what Watchtower claims is their charitable programming - the preaching work is 70% of their activities and the only component they can claim to qualify them as a charity.
Without members, there would be no preaching work, without the preaching work there would be no programming, and with no programming there would be no charity, and without a charity they wouldn't be able to own the properties, land and buildings that are assigned to registered charities.
Maybe they should start selling them off?....oh wait...
I'd really love to know how they are rearranging the chessboard.

Is Watchtower meant to be an actual shelter from reality
by ToyFish inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yciaw0m2-nqi'm a former member that has been out for the past few months and have been doing a lot of personal research.
i've been having mixed feelings about the gb whether or not their intentions are good or not.
the fact they have a protocol of moral lying through "theocratic warfare" very much turned me off from having anything to do with the org.

Is Watchtower meant to be an actual shelter from reality?
No.
It's meant to distort reality.
The Watchtower sets up the stage with real, but overrepresented, horrific, and positively depressing features of world conditions. The cult then offers a glossy, promising alternative to a gloomy outlook.
Watchtower is an insular organisation, it allows you to see only what it wants you to see...within and without.
Internal and external facades are protected by copyright , anti hate speech and religious freedom laws.
And those facades are also protected by the intenrnal judiciary process that has little thought for human rights or due process when dealing with rank and file or, ( as in the case of The Purge 1980 ) high ranking officials who went rogue.
While watchtower portrays an exaggerated negative worldview, it goes to great lengths to keep the curtain closed on its own dark secrets and to maintain a whitwashed appearance.
Keep reading and researching, free from undue influence.
If you haven't already, read Crisis of Conscience, and In Search of Christian Freedom, by Ray Franz.
