do you think the jdubs will start up the door whacking again one day?.
there has to be many inside the org that are dreading having to do that again and as for the general public seeing this, it’s hard to imagine.

But they are still stuck in a 50s or earlier mindset. I wonder if the Saturday ritual was ever more than busy work. I remember not one single person at home; best part was donuts or if lucky waiting in the car while a study was conducted because only two were allowed to go in.
Remember Sunday meeting at 6? Go out in the morning and guilt those who missed church.
I may have to burn my covid card
my apologies if it was covered.
mark sanderson was stressing several times how timely the watchtower teachings are.
my thoughts on his example : the article on neutrality from november 1939. .
Spanish civil war 1936. Russian revolution. Armenia. On and on
i have been on m any different forums, and only carm is similar to this.. all the rest have rather hypocritical trust in god.. this and carm are for those who apostate to the wtbs and to god.. turned off by the gb, or hypocritical examples in the congregation, they drop worshiping god and their belief in the bible... for they know too much,.
that's why scripture isn't discussed, and jws like me, are demonized.. i am cool with that!
maybe some of you will come to their senses!.
Simon. Can we end this? No meaningful discussion. Thanks
has the gb been hijacked by tony morris?
hes the host many times on jw videos.
saying gb members wanting him too host.

A reference I think to the call for doing a few weeks as tourist missionaries. No idea what civid has done to it
wait, you don't go drinking on wednesday nights?
you don't get drunk and drive?
neither do i.. but, one of my neighbors does!.
Yes I have chased. Not as good a story tho. And I didnt catch. One consideration around here is the numbr of gun carrying drunks.
how many times did you see elders hounding congregation members to quit their jobs due to missing meetings?.
my brother worked at a grocery store at 16 years old.
he would miss tuesday's ministry school due to his work schedule.
The new hound is zoom service every Saturday. And during the the week.
hi,.
as far as i can understand is that male-female friendship is a no go for jws.
but how do things work if you want to date someone of the other sex if you can’t have close friendship with?.

With out assemblies, construction, cleaning, or even gatherings it is improbable.
Assuming you want to stay in become a public speaker do you are front and center. Even zoom is guarded so you cannot visit other congregations.
Beware of dating sites, or even matchmakers.

Half the elders are in a position to not worry. The others are lazy
I never had overtime that wasnt for jobs that had to be done. A CO had a fit over it once, last time I ever gave a golden handshake.
There are experiences where someone got fired for going to assembly. Every one I had any insight on were poor employees to start with.
i have a real problem with this one.
jesus said follow his steps closely.
never read in new testament about people living in convents.

Yes, but WT has held special regard for Lydia because "she was rich". It was in one of the study books
with the current discussion if someone in his twenties can be elder or not.
i'm interested in what a elder in jw land really do.
all speeches already come in video format from headquarters.

Except they are not older,neither in life experience nor necessarily age.
They are overLORDS with varying degrees of ability.
In theory the ancient older men took advantage of the wisdom of the crowd
