Do Jw's Dress up in meeting clothes for Zoom meetings?
by jeremiah18:5-10 ini am just curious if anyone knows whether the "friends" still are required to wear "meeting clothes" for attending meetings through zoom?
such emphasis on dressing in a godly manner over the decades, would be interesting if some attend in pajamas or their work clothes, no makeup, etc....

Yep, stand up and join our voices in harmony for song __ entitled__. At least they do mute it. Wife sounds like someone stepped on her foot, I sound like a frog with a sore throat. .No holding hands for prayer and keep your eyes closed. Not even a seat back in front to keep your balance.

WTB&TS And The Lawyers They Employ.
by smiddy3 ini have been thinking about the legal departments that look after the wts interests around the world.i can`t believe these legal eagles offer their services on a voluntary basis like the r&f do.and i don`t believe their services would come cheap.. as an organization the size of jw.org and its offshoots of companys and interests around the world ,the cost of keeping them gainfully employed must amount to a considerable sum of money.. especially the law suits against them with child abuse court cases that arise on a regular basis ,and the government inquiry`s into the jw religion that is happening in different countries now.. all paid for by the voluntary contributions that come from the r&f for the worldwide preaching work .. contributions to pay for the wt organization`s legal department to defend themselves in court ?.
did jesus and the apostles pay lawyers to defend them in a court of law with funds donated by their supporters ?.

I thought the brownstones were for the elite; lawyers, doctors etc.
They need lawyers for child abuse, privacy, real estate, tax dodges. I sure would not want one of their lawyers help me plan my estate; nothing in the will for them. Any assets go to my undereducated kids.

Every talk and song is entitled. Never named, called, about, on the subject, or titled.
I guess I am entitled to be a grammar nazi

More blank screens every time, or a photo background. Quote:" it is disrespectful to jehovah to not dress up".
Comments on decorations made too don't want ant any distracting backgrounds.
No apology about nagging people for missing the daily text ( a meeting not authorized by the wt) they spend a half hour to hour bloviating. Even those of us with nothing to do have things to do.

How service is being conducted with the zoom meetings
by newsheep ina friend of ours who is married to a jw said that this morning for service everyone who was on zoom got to do a call while the rest listened in on the call.
there were thirty-one this morning listening in on one who would call someone to preach to.
shouldn't the person they are calling on be warned first that there will be so many listening in on their phone call from the zoom meeting.

Non profits and charities are exempt in the US from nuisance calls laws. I dont think they are recording video of the callee. How often does anyone even do more than hang up?
Who has a phone number you can find? You know how wicked it is to make a witness call in an adjoining territory.
