i’ve been thinking about it for a few weeks and i’m sort of surprised that no one else has introduced this topic!.
what better time than now for a fader to fade?
no meetings, no field service, no elder visits, no assemblies, no convention, and no other bullshit busy work going on.
Zoom meeting, daily zoom text, letter territory pushed out. Encouragement to dress up for the meeting and have a non controversial backdrop and camera on. Not much aid offered though to those out of work. Phone calls to watch every damn video made.
They are afraid we will relax and fade
co is coming and expecting to zoom it in july.
also there is no talk about starting to slowly go back to the hall.
like having 1 group at the hall and the rest on zoom, etc.
Rub. You didn't notice how poorly they handle cameras.
Downside is no snow days
the watchtower witch-hunters are still sending out subpoena's and closing down websites.
it is safer for simon, this board, and us if we send out internal confidential documents privately.. from time to time i will let you know something has arrived that you might want.
just send us a "pm" and we will give you the download links.. you do not need to include any personal information.
Can someone post a brief summary? Thanks
are they revered like the pope is to catholics??
back in the 1960s , fred franz and n.h knorr were the only men that counted.
after franz died, the governing body became more of an idolized entity.
Was told they are the smartest men on earth. That discounts the helpers ( handlers)
i don't like micheal moore at all but he produced this doc and it is exactly what i have been saying about the renewable energy myth for years.

I hate to have to agree with you. You cannot dislike Moore any more than I.
the lucrative events otherwise known as assemblies and conventions are cancelled, which i'm sure has hit the wts in the pocketbook a little.
so the newest article on jwdotorg reminds us all yet again of the online recurring donation feature that takes credit and debit cards.. https://www.jw.org/en/news/jw/region/global/making-electronic-donations-in-view-of-covid-19-precautions/.

I donate locally where I can see an affect. Leavs an extra 5 for food bank ag store, take something to beighbors.
i had a patient admitted from a skilled nursing facility/rehab that is an active jw.
the patient had covid-19 as did most of the patients at that facility.
typically the local elders are all involved in these admissions but there is a strict no visitor policy which includes clergy.
If you separate antibodies from plasma is it a conscience matter? The waters are so muddie. A pimi spouse would probably leak the monthly insurance EOB.
jws or mormons.
from a public point of view not from people within the religion as that would be obvious.. examples of extreme beliefs or behaviour would be useful..
Witnesses dont vote, military, go to college. The mormon friends I had in school didnt stand out as odd. Jws did.
The more bizarre things aren't flaunted, underwear and such. I have more offers of help ( real) from Mormons, than from my supposed congregation, and I am in
this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.
latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.
the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.
Aren't there stories of Antarctic researchers getting sick after their isolation? There certainly was less around here. Traffic went to near normal, stores full, but I saw no queues. Of course if you need a new suit too bad, that is still closed. I expect a bump that will extend the home arrest orders into June
