  do you think the watchtower will ban commenting at the meetings one day?

  if you are pimo, you might want to try to make some comments to make others think about the “truth”!

  Yes, Q&A is a teaching method. But I used to be in 6th grade, now 3rd, 2nd on the horizon.

  Rules

  That picture reminds of a well traveled trail locally. If you jnow you take one fork. If you are not familiar with it you take the more traveled fork which is a dead end so it has twice the traffic. There can be an analogy in our life choices.

  GB 2021 Update #10 - "get vaccinated"

  by neat blue dog in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  am the turd comes the closest to just coming right out and telling jws they have to do it.

  he says, 'there's no need to worry, just keep doing what works: wear masks, wash your hands and get vaccinated when possible'.

  the busybodies are going to be even more insufferable now than they have been.

  Dating in the Org

  2. experiences

  you men, who were brothers in the congregation and you were dating sisters in the congregation, did you find that they cared more about how you made them look in the congregation than they cared about you?.

  you women, who were sisters in the congregation and you were dating brothers in the congregation, were you more concerned about how he affected your status & how you were viewed in the congregation, than you cared about him?.

  50 years ago there were few chaperon rules, dating was easier. I still had to compete with pioneer brothers from better off families who had fancy cars. on the other hand the pretty girls knew it. We did the beer joint club stuff, along with some worldly friends at times. There was some heavy making out and petting that went on; this was before the free for all that followed so there were constraints.

  I had one serious girl but was not in a position ti support her in the manner she was accustomed to. That came down to her dad competing with me.

  Second girlfriend came from humbler background and was a solid good person. Very pretty too. She has been a devoted wife and I am a good husband.

  Now I have no idea how you would go about dating. Too many stupid rules. I know one woman who had to wait until a day her husband was home to get a plumber in.

  your opinion, please, on the above video.

  1. before jesus, humans were judged either by the law (jews and converts) or by natural law (noahide law).

  Huh?

  Of there is no sin on the 1000 years because of no temptation how did angels get tempted before the flood.?

  If I make it into paradise I may well be tempted by a strawberry blonde. I will have greater ability. Do we get a spear through "there"?

  I don't know if these guys need to drink more or less.

  2. bible

  you think org is gonna start disfellowship elders or dissociate with congregations that don't want too sell there kingdom hall's?

  with all the begging of money seems org is lacking funds.

  Halls have long since been owned by the WT. And they have already put new elders in where needed

  according to a recent pew report, ones who are not affiliated with any religion are the fastest growing group.

  if they were a religion they would be the largest.

  's who are leaving religion, but cuts across a wide spectrum.

  Geoffrey Jackson- soliciting?

  by molybdenum in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i listened to geoffrey jackson’s latest talk “assisting our brothers materially “.

  jackson presented some arguments, one of which was….jesus did not stop the widow from putting money in the contribution box in the temple.

  basically saying regardless of your financial situation you have to donate.

  When was this talk given? The assistance always comes down to me giving to someone else. The most the WT does is introduce us. The arrangements are usually to find some with the means to donate. All my (wife is pimi )donations go to the local congregation and then any misuse falls on the elders.

  Is it time to trot out the least of christ's brothers again? The great 8 are not least in my mind

  In old wars the bones were gathered and ground into fertilizer. Officers (noblemen) maybe got a burial.

  Dead people really stink, and dont forget the maggots
