I don't get it - Marriage in WT world
by menrov inin wt world, a marriage is only seen (considered) as legal if it is registered in the municipality (or similar governmental organisation).
now, if you look at the scriptures, there was no requirement to have a marriage legally registered in order to be considered married.
is it not strange that the wt subjects themselves to and adopts an worldly arrangement setup but governments rules by satan when it comes to a marital status?.

The legalities are the bigger reason. the bible also had girls married at 13 ( despite jonah's old maid sister).
There is mention of a certificate of divorce, so there must have been some legalities back when

Baptism during Covid - pool must tough the ground?
by jwfacts inthe july 2020 announcements mentions that baptism can be held in an “inflatable pool” as long as it touches the ground.
the pool must not be “on a terrace, flat roof, balcony, etc.”.
has anyone ever noticed that as a requirement?.

Just like in the bible. This comes from new york people who do not even know what dirt is. What about stock tanks? Just go down to the river.

The “simplified” congregation donation arrangement
by slimboyfat indid anyone else experience a nostalgic throwback to the 1990s when the latest watchtower announcements presented their demand for increased donations from congregations as a “simplified” arrangement?
5. adjustment to resolved congregation donations: in the past, the congregation was presented with multiple resolutions to donate funds to the branch office in support of vari- ous activities cared for by the organization.
this arrangement has been simplified.

Wife is the bookkeeper. as for concealing donations either way, there should be discretionary monies for each to use as wanted.
Wait until mom finds the local congregation having 7000 instead of the max of 5000. Of course the new enhanced donation will eat that up.

I think biden will run but I would not bet on his life expectancy. May 2 years, just long enough the take over by the vp will not count as a term, hence 10 years.

It includes the insurances that were separate so that should be it. We were told what the resolution was but they forgot to take a vote. I think ours tripled.

It is the melanin. In the summer I am more colored.
The woke people deny history. Moors mixing in with red haired fair Spanish; the black african mixed with cuban indians; arab slavers breeding with skaves, American slave holders breeding slave girls (quadroon, octoroon) on and on.
It makes me question the black diseases with few blacks not having a lot of European blood.
The real standard should be morality: no theft, no laziness, nuclear family vslues, no murder. These things cross all ethnic lines and beliefs.

JW's and the National Anthem/Flag
by Anony Mous inone thing we were always taught in the past is how we should sit down and pray (kneel) to jehoober whenever we were at an event where they played the national anthem.
we had to actively disrespect the flag and anthem and be no part of the world, because we were our own country with jesus as king.. given kneeling/sitting for the national anthem is now the favorite pastime of the far-left and if you do so, you get associated with democrats, how do jehovah's witnesses now 'become no part of this world' when they have to disrespect the flag?.

"Please stand during the announcements and song--you may be seated". Maybe we should all face the blue square with our shining faces. How about a new stake, crown, and logo pin?
I used to avoid the events. Last time I got caught was a funeral for a vet. I was respectful for it all. As for all the arguments, it is worship and a prayer being required of everyone.
