  Do Jw's Dress up in meeting clothes for Zoom meetings?

  by jeremiah18:5-10 in

  i am just curious if anyone knows whether the "friends" still are required to wear "meeting clothes" for attending meetings through zoom?

  such emphasis on dressing in a godly manner over the decades, would be interesting if some attend in pajamas or their work clothes, no makeup, etc....

  I know at least one growing a beard. Looks very distinguished now that he is past the homeless stubble. Hope he keeps it

  Yep, stand up and join our voices in harmony for song __ entitled__. At least they do mute it. Wife sounds like someone stepped on her foot, I sound like a frog with a sore throat. .No holding hands for prayer and keep your eyes closed. Not even a seat back in front to keep your balance.

  WTB&TS And The Lawyers They Employ.

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been thinking about the legal departments that look after the wts interests around the world.i can`t believe these legal eagles offer their services on a voluntary basis like the r&f do.and i don`t believe their services would come cheap.. as an organization the size of jw.org and its offshoots of companys and interests around the world ,the cost of keeping them gainfully employed must amount to a considerable sum of money.. especially the law suits against them with child abuse court cases that arise on a regular basis ,and the government inquiry`s into the jw religion that is happening in different countries now.. all paid for by the voluntary contributions that come from the r&f for the worldwide preaching work .. contributions to pay for the wt organization`s legal department to defend themselves in court ?.

  did jesus and the apostles pay lawyers to defend them in a court of law with funds donated by their supporters ?.

  I thought the brownstones were for the elite; lawyers, doctors etc.

  They need lawyers for child abuse, privacy, real estate, tax dodges. I sure would not want one of their lawyers help me plan my estate; nothing in the will for them. Any assets go to my undereducated kids.

  Every talk and song is entitled. Never named, called, about, on the subject, or titled.

  I guess I am entitled to be a grammar nazi

  More blank screens every time, or a photo background. Quote:" it is disrespectful to jehovah to not dress up".

  Comments on decorations made too don't want ant any distracting backgrounds.

  No apology about nagging people for missing the daily text ( a meeting not authorized by the wt) they spend a half hour to hour bloviating. Even those of us with nothing to do have things to do.
