Do elders have to stop after a certain age?
by LostintheFog1999 ini know from friends who are pimi that circuit overseers are taken off when they hit age 70. since most of them are long serving men it might explain why they are pushing mid-20 year old lads into the circuit work.. are there any similar age restrictions on congregation elders?
because we've known some doddery old men in the past who shouldn't have been kept on as presiding overseers but refused to relinquish their role.
does anyone know?.

Some I know fall forcm the rags to riches story. No mention of her working up on her back or knees and that is irrelevant.
Stick to the vision for the country and how it will affect webelows.

What the watchtower demands from you
by Ron.W. inperhaps you considering joining the wt cult - here is a concise list of why you should not.. what the watchtower demands of you:.
1.complete obedience to them.. 2. be willing to lose your life for zany blood teachings.. 3.put other cult members before your real family.. 4.refusal to let you leave their religion when the penny drops it's a cult.. 6.accept that they can backtrack and change any of their flip flop teachings at any time.. 7. you can't change your mind about their teachings without harsh discipline,.
8. insistence that you humbly and quickly apologise for your mistakes and errors.. 9.gladly accept they will never be apologising for any of their mistakes or errors of judgement.. 10.accept that even ones who follow and believe in the bible, but not the governing body are worthy of destruction.. please feel free to add more..

Actually it was a pimp offering services.

Ages of each user here?
by ukpimo ini'm interested to know the age demographics here.
it must be significantly different to other exjw forums.
it would be a damning report for watchtower if most of us appear to have left for decades.. you don't have to mention your exact age, you could always say "in my 50s".. i am in my 70s.

Working class congregation. Donations seem to slowly exceed expenses until the magic ceiling hits and then a non Robert's resolution is made.
There is no breakdown; donations, "bill", and amount in WWW box. Any special need like aroof,paving, vandalism etc.is seperate.
Add the hospitality coercion and feeding pioneer school.

New instructions on not using sisters to manage KH computer ?
by fifth.column insince covid in france, especially in the countryside with lack of brothers, it was quite common that some sisters were using the computer at the back of the kingdom hall to manage zoom session.. i heard a rumor that new instructions, maybe a july letter, stated that this was reserved for male only, even unbaptised publishers, but no sister if there is at least a male available.
that would be a steps back and disappointment for these sisters.
last week i heard at my mom’s house how they were happy that this service was available for them, a proof that the org was moving forward.

Except Pogo was and is true. Digging at political party conventions and news media right now, even though the commentary was written on 1952
