TheWallyB, what is your channel, please? I think I saw it named a few pages back, but I didn’t make note of it.

Yes, Wally. How can people disassociate mentally the kind of person a speaker is from what that speaker is saying? Would we listen to and support one who speaks against killing elephants, but who then goes to Africa and kills elephants? Would we pay money to a “save the forest” fund if we know the recipient bulldozes rainforest on vacation?

I do have to say though that his 2 little girls are some of the cutest I have seen.
I agree, ForeverAlone. Little girls don't get any cuter than that.

How would you like to have those faces across from you over your cup of coffee every morning?

So, that's Tibor behind Evans? Yes, run, Tibor. Run! Working "for" and "with" a person who has low, or no, moral values drags a person down emotionally and spiritually.

Toblerone5 said,
"And instead of going to the Gym, or sing in Karaoke bar ,he could have also go back to college..."
Yet, people turn to Evans for advice on how to handle crises in their lives when exiting Watchtower. JW's who are exiting the horrible "high control group" don't know where to go for information on their new situation. They had previously thought that "the elders" should be consulted in a crisis. Evans presents himself as the "go to" guy for all things "exjw". Kim Silvio has done a huge favor to exjw's by providing insight into the "qualifications" of Evans as a "counselor".

Wanting to see Kim's credentials fades into insignificance and even more so when her standard of work speaks for itself.
Well said. I always do a mental adjustment of my own opinion whenever Kim pops in to explain some phenomena relating to the Evans Debacle.

Lloyd seems, to me, to be angry with “God” in general. Exposing Catholicism as a false religion does nothing to wake up Jehovah’s Witnesses from “their” Watchtower false religion. Neither does exposing Catholicism as a false religion protect any CSA victims from Watchtower’s counter-productive judicial meeting rule book.
Wiki gives a newly minted term: slacktivism.
”Performative activism is activism done to increase one’s social capital rather than because of one’s devotion to a cause. It is often associated with surface-level activism, referred to as slacktivism. The term gained an increased usage on social media in the wake of the George Floyd protests.”
