New light came about in the 1950's because the top brass couldn't travel out of the country without vaccinations. Air travel was really taking off! Suddenly the heavens opened and its ok!

Past Watchtower Society Comments On Vaccines
by BluesBrother intoday there is a lot of hope placed in a vaccines to immunise against covid 19 , and relief that they are soon to be available.
that will be shared by the eight million or so jws in this world.
they should be thankful that the wts has moved away from its teaching ,that lasted for decades , proclaiming that vaccination was wrong, and a tool of satan.

how do spouse's treat their partners if they leave the cult?
by mickbobcat inso i was fortunate enough to have a wife that listened and saw what i was saying was true and that the cult is bs.
but i wonder how bad it is in a relationship that one goes out of the cult and the other stays in.
i can see that being a real issue for a marriage.

My previous post, i meant to add that it all depends on the couple and the strength of their relationship. It’s one day at a time. Some JW’s that wanted out of the marriage , use it to say that they are spiritually endangered, thus opening the way for a separation. This could spread to other things, such as new relationships. With all of that said, it varies.

My wife just threatened to go to the elders and tell them that I no longer believe. She says that if i go talk to an elder of my choice, she will drop telling them i’m an unbeliever. She says she doesn’t have to know the specifics of the conversation.
I mentioned that maybe i should get my own place, if i’m making everyone in the household so uncomfortable, and she started to cry and said that’s not the outcome that she wants.
Maybe I’ll shave my beard and go talk to an elder that i’m close to. Shaving keeps my fade out of the org going and i don’t come off as rebellious, so that another meeting is necessary. I know it’s crazy right?
I mentioned some things that most witnesses don’t know, such as, Jesus not being their Mediator. She emphatically replied that Christ is her Mediator. After researching in WT literature, she now says He is not!😢 WT trumps the bible.🤬

Most that I met over 40+ years seemed sad and beaten down. Very few seemed happy and outgoing. Some acted as if they were afraid to speak. I found out in later years when the C.O.‘s wife would be AWOL for several visits, they were being treated for depression or substance abuse in a facility in Florida. One D.O. and his wife were hooked on pills and had to be removed (Simons was the name). One had gone home, was going to leave Circuit work, and got persuaded to come back.

Will The Magic Number 270 Mean An Automatic Win For Biden?
by minimus ini don’t think so.
the election results will probably be decided by the supreme court..
-

Don’t you wish Minimus. By the time this election is over President Elect Biden will have over 300 electoral votes + the popular vote. The Supreme Court doesn’t dare try to change that! The will/voice of the people has spoken loud and clear.

My Prediction: Trump Wins Big
by minimus ina month ago it might have been questionable.
not now.
after bader’s death and biden’s inability, this shouldn’t be close.

DOC, humans don’t breed, animals do.
If the inept are getting all of this free stuff, maybe they are the smart ones, and we are slow. Just a thought .

Truth be told, the sky is not falling!! All of these Dooms Day prophecies makes me think that some here are JW’s. The USA will continue on and so will life. If gas goes to $4 or $5 per gallon, it won’t stay that price for long. Remember, it’s been that price before. Covid will be controlled , a vaccine will be made and i’ll be able to go to a concert, movie and out to dinner. Might even have a Super Bowl party. There are checks and balances for most everything. It hasn’t been too long ago that some here couldn’t have a beard, tattoo, wear tight pants, or brightly colored socks! I predict that everything will be OK
