Same here, the vast majority of brothers ignore the news and the few who know close themselves on the defensive citing health reasons ... cognitive dissonance
Just one thing: what does "R&F" mean?

for the PIMO question as to A. Morris
by enoughisenough inhave the rank and file been told not to "gossip", or "question" about mr morris yet?
i am mindful of how questioning decisions was discouraged and being told to keep things confidential.
( maybe too soon, but do share if a special needs part comes up) you would think that common sense would tell them they cause the questions when they don't share reasons.

I hope that the same end befalls Splane (for the infamous overlapping generation and other ambiguous speeches like the plea bargaining in the courts he spoke about in the 2021 congress) and Jackson (for the infamous statements to the ARC), as a start may be enough.. .

@ Fisherman
he was in Vietnam only as a nurse, I don't think he ever killed anyone also because given the huge ego he suffers from, he would certainly have mentioned it in one of his rants

Will the Chinese retaliate someday?
by Fisherman inthat’s all we need, to lose china’s economic friendship.
since the chinese explained it was a friendly balloon, shouldn’t we expect the same from china?.

from a non-American's perspective, the image the US is giving of itself is that of a people obsessed and scared of ghosts, unable to converse without resorting to threats or always having to bang his fist on the table... the world is tired of this

Are Both The JW And The Ex-JW Community a Cult?
by Vanderhoven7 incharlie ryde writes:.
let us use the same bite model for determining if something is a cult to both being a jw and being ex-jw.
mind you this is a short summary.. b- behavioral control.

@Diogenesister
you have a like from me :)
I'll try to clarify my position a little: I'm certainly not here to defend nonsense about WT, like disfellowshipping or preteens baptism or CSA policies. I also don't believe, as someone above ironically implied, that the JWs will be the only ones to be saved. But I believe in Jehovah and in Christ's ransom sacrifice, I believe that divine mercy is something unimaginable, and that after death we will all be resurrected and given a second chance, free from the influences to which we are subjected today. I believe that everyone will be accountable for their misdeeds, individually, subjectively, and in terms of their responsibilities as members of an organization. This is to say that WT's cover-up sins regarding CSA and others will not go unpunished! I was not born into a JW family, I became one on my own initiative because I had seen things that had convinced me of the goodness of this people: above all political and military neutrality. But things have changed over time, the organization I had known over 30 years ago is no longer politically neutral and this worries me a lot...

as far as I can see I am a PIMO and at the moment I am fine with it, I have no intention of leaving just because certain behavioral models of the GB and the management find me in complete disagreement. But what I've seen both here and on Reddit is that as soon as someone like me tries to defend his belief in God, the Bible or other JW teachings then he gets attacked regardless. This in my opinion is exactly the behavior of a cult, no offence

When is the time to say the GB were wrong about the jabs?
by Indoubtbigtime init’s now becoming obvious more and more by the day that everyone was wrong about these vaccines being a good thing to take.. when will rank and file realise the governing body were so wrong to push them so hard saying jehovah helped get 99% of special full time servants fully vaccinated?.
its something we are all afraid to talk about.
we can’t say the words the governing body were wrong????????.

A U-turn on mandatory vaccines would implicitly mean an admission of guilt and responsibility, as well as a total failure from the point of view of alleged divine guidance

@Indoubtbigtime I can't figure out who gave you a dislike! From the beginning of this global social experiment I have been wary of these vaccines and I was sure the GB was making a huge mistake promoting them, the truth is finally coming out
