Secret Sin hey? That is so far below the belt, this was also suggested about the sister beheaded in Sweden(?) a few years back.

first new zealand's dictator resigned and now nicola sturgeon the first minister of scotland has announced her intention to go.. nobody is certain exactly what the trigger was but there are plenty of possibilities.
the final straw may have been her 'gender recognition' act that would have made it possible for anybody 16 and over to legally change their sex on a whim.
the vast majority of scots were opposed but she battered the legislation through holyrood regardless.
"Good riddance to evil bitches."
Lets hope Woke Queen Trudeau is next.

in the november 2022 study watchtower, "jehovah's organization" (or variants) is repeated at least 37 times.. the word 'organization' - like 'governing body,' 'trinity,' hell-fire,' & 'immortal soul,' - doesn't exist in the holy scriptures.. interestingly, jesus christ is mentioned only twice in all of the study articles - as an aside..
Think of the org as a brokerage scam, where they have muscled out Jesus at set themselves up in his place.
Greedy middlemen, skimmers.

a thoughtful read in today's huffington post.
it reminded me of how glad i am that 1st gen and i left the cult together and worked on keeping our closest relationships alive.
it wasn't easy.
Trisha's story is so sad, even sadder is the fact that most of us here have similar stories.

i mean, the jws have many faults, as each of us have.. do you know any other group that does?.
Not many poor religious leaders around Christianity.
For sure, just remember that when America was down and out during the great depression JF Rutherford had the audacity to be driven around in one of his 2 V16 Cadillacs - the most expensive locally made vehicle of the era.

16 note the example of geydi, a sister from guatemala.
her husband, edi, was murdered as they were returning home from a congregation meeting.
The real moral of the story is that they should have stayed home!
Ding ding... LHG takes the prize.
