  so there was a time the awake magazine was printed every 15 days but now since jehovah is blessing them so much the magazine is printed once a year, and here you have the 1st edition for the year , which is nothing more than an informatial of how good of a charity they are to their local community.

  so we read in the following box: what we are doing firstly, jehovah’s witnesses promote a balanced, healthy lifestyle.

  Where is Tony?

  by Athanasius in

  on february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.

  a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.

  in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

  What if JWs voted in elections?

  by Las Malvinas son Argentinas in

  all this political banter is exhausting, so i want to ask a question that has probably been asked before, so here it goes….

  let’s try to keep this non-partisan - just give your opinion and why you think that way.. i’ll go first.

  i think jws would generally lean to the right, but not by a whole lot.

  Almost all I know lean dem. Big believers in the dole, gun control, reverse racism(equity), soft on crime, belief that money (other people's only) equates wickedness. Fully believe in the green stuff despite the evidence of the costs and constant climate change is all mans doing. They believe migrants all come through the turnstile. They look at a benevolent talking person ignoring her history (horizontal harris) and cannot look past the jerk personality of trump-he is not alone in his philandering

  If you go to the congregation where a friend lives there are more educated upper middle class who covertly support guns for defense, personal responsibility. So maybe more conservative.

  Abortion is not mentioned. This is a pro abortion(past pro choice) state.

  I am middle right

  perhaps we could post the pictures the wt have presented in their literature that depict their version of paradise here for comment/discussion:.

  from: spirits of the dead​—can they help you or harm you?

  do they really exist?.

  apparently, the downsizing is still happening and from what i read those let go are over 50!.

  sad because these people expected to be lifers.

  now they have to make their way in the world at an advanced age with no education or desirable skill!..

  Jw Broadcasting Sept 24 : Making up stories about Miriam

  by raymond frantz in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  https://youtu.be/mvhvtxh3fn0?si=yw_pszgyh8xvmoy8.

  so the following video is part of the latest jw broadcasting for september 2024 the script for this video is taken from the publication "immitate their faith" which is like "my book of bible stories" but for adults but is full of inaccuracies and outright falsehoods and here we deal with an outright fabrication about miriam, the sister of moses:.

  under the subtitle "miriam the proud" we read: privileges and prominence bring blessings as well as dangers.

  Once upon a time the pope came and tv asked for accomodations-almost all teens. City opened up big time. I think I would just as soon have catholic kids over JW hillbillies.

  Back when dad n mom had 3 extra families with kids (they were old friends/family) for a convention; one bathroom, camp cots in the yard. I think grandma (not witness) 3 blocks away took some cousins so that made 2 bathrooms

  They read it again, or take 2, added travel trailers to the list and full bath instead of private. This time I was awake. LDC accomidations for maintainers.

  Well maintained halls but they are not ours like in the old days when locals did it with local flairs

  The CO"s regularly bragging about their trips; always done on someone else's money. I know of ONE who saved the green handshakes and retired in a desiresble area and home. Been told he married money too.

  The few reassigned ones I had dealings with had both a chip on their shoulder and a mean personality.

  Tony is special because of what he knows. Note he gives up the real-estate at death and still has a aging car

  I have a list of things I never did or will never be able to again--not world tours, just midweek retirement camping etc. because of deferring them for "service" and health concerns.
