"Generation of 1914" Countdown Timer
by ILoveTTATT2 inso proud of this counter that i made!.
very simple yet shows the estimated amount of people that are living that are from the generation of 1914, defined as "all the people who were alive, even just barely being born, when ww1 started".. here's what i assumed:.
10% of the 1.7 billion people alive in 1914 were infants, just children.

Prayers for special servants
by road to nowhere inmy very much in wife commented with no prompting that they have a hierarchy in prayers.
bless the gb, co, elders, pioneers.
if the ill or shutins are mentioned that is all, not so much as a phone call let alone a visit.

Appalling start to the new year with this Cult!
by ZindagiNaMilegiDobaara inthe cult is so screwed up its appalling!first thing this morning and this shitty text is what i get for the start of the new year.
"the 20th century ended on 31st of december 2000 at 23:59:59 +1 second so technically, yes, the next decade according to that would begin next year.
but the twenties started to day.i hope these are the roaring twenties!

The 20th century didnt end until 2001. This has always been a losing battle so we should just admit that the first century had 99 years.
I know one elder who said to avoid service on January 1. I think he even had the audacity to name the holidays instead of calling it a worldly day off. We all know it is new years, Christmas, Thanksgiving or whatever.

Hip Replacement Surgery
by titch ini'm not really sure where to put this post or "thread", so i'll just put it in the physical activities area.
i just want to know if anyone on the forum has any experience with having a hip replacement surgery done on them, or perhaps a friend or relative.
what was your experience, if it was you?

Do not do the twist. All the muscles are stretched and if you dislocate it can do damage and the fixes get more complicated and dangerous. Do follow the precautions and do therapy

Is it possible to nullify a baptism?
by idk123 inhope you are all well,.
i was wondering within the organisation if there are any guidelines or grounds for nullifying a baptism.
see i grew up a jehovah's witness and was baptised at age 13, i didn't get baptised for the right reasons, i felt pressured to because my friends were getting baptised at the same time.

The newest scenario is not answer phone, keep track of thru relatives, go to hospital uf they are in, or as noted elsewhere return any mail. And absolutely no funeral That will bring them back to loving jehovah.
In practice most of us feel a responsibility and love our family, warts and all.
There are some who will have to walk away and make a life as an orphan.

I had a friend who was told he needed to be rebaptized as he didnt mean it the first time. I think he was DF, but this was 50 years ago. From comments made by tge GB about getting dunked at early years I think they just assume you are trapped. Hopefully you have friends, or more i.importantly parents of friends who will fill some of the void

Has leaving made you racist
by Steel inso i use to go this hall that was basically 100 percent white and basically anyone under the age of 40 has either faded or makes a token effort to keep the peace at home, of course outside of the usual dregs of society .
the hall went from two congs to one and i was quite happy that in ten years they would be lights out.
then in the last two years about six young filipino families have moved in and three of them are newly baptized .

Noting a fact is not racist.
Denying facts is reverse racism.

Big elders meetings?
by road to nowhere ini hear of whole circuit meetings being held, taking all day.
maybe just usual yearly stuff, but it seems the local elders immediately held a followup.
i am sure it will be about better local control, more charity, kindness, that sort of thing.

I have heard a rumor if at keast one congregation being low attendance. Go figure, hall sold ( actually an old one with no parking, so that made sense), but the reassigned one was 30 to 40 minutes of bad traffic away. I joke that they still have a big congregation, just half of them are in gridlock.
If they draw a new line it will devastate my wife as the logicall street for it is between her last true friend and her.
I cant chance telling my specific area

I used to have a string of sisters. The boxes were dumped and counted by brothers only. The sisters could straighten bills and sort only. If you have ever been involved with WT money you know that the most honest people on earth cannot be trusted. What i have really observed is a complete honesty by most people, they will not steal given an opportunity
