I'm very grateful for this forum ,cause now we have at least 3 videos that he deleted
Make sue you don't confuse something being removed from a listing with being removed. If the video is still on his YouTube channel then he can ultimately remove it completely.
To have a secure copy for reference, you need to download it from YouTube so your copy is out of his control.
It's OK, I heard from good authority that there is no such thing as copyright ...

He's said in a few of his videos and his book that he was like a wannabe elder when he was a kid, like the class policeman - even the other JW kids didn't like him because he'd tell on them to the elders.
So basically, he was annoying little cunt even as a kid and liked to use whatever power he ever had in a retaliatory manner.
Then he grew up and didn't change.
Ha ha, I appreciate the sentiment though :)
I'm glad you find the site useful, but it's only what it is because of the community of contributors.
since i cannot update my bio at this time let me introduce myself.
ex jw of 2 years.
was pimi for 24 and df'd for almost 3 years.
Please bear with me, I'm working on a revamp that will fix a lot of issues and add improved features (including a vastly better search, you'll be happy to hear)
i can see it that watchtower will become an online/tv based group with just con-vention hall$.. field service would be letter writing and phone preaching, door to door is done.. watchtower will have pay to view programs and still ask for donations after all that.. zoom meetings are here to stay.
kingdumb halls will be sold off except for con-vention venues, or need for new ones$.. df'ing will continue.
the craziness will continue.
As much as many of us would love to wake up one day to read headlines about some shock collapse of the WTS we have to accept that it simply isn't going to happen.
I don't believe the vast majority of JWs really know what the current doctrines are, they are largely unimportant to people's "belief" in the current thing. It's how they feel about being a member, being part of it all, and the morals and lifestyle they promote.
Remember that they fill a niche, so even if the WTS was magically removed, something else would evolve to fill the position that they occupy and to appeal to those members.
This is why it's a waste of our time, energy and money to make destroying the WTS our goal.
But what isn't a waste is to help those who do want to leave to do so successfully and with as little negative impact on their life as possible.

I notice he Re-release some old video he made. I vaguely remember him mentioning he was going to make Tibor edited some old videos of his
I wonder what embarrassing snippets he's removing? All the red flags?
I don't believe he would pay someone to do something that isn't of direct benefit to him.
IMO he's removing things for a reason and the "edited re-release" excuse is just cover.
Or it's a distraction from the fact that he doesn't have any new content now people don't want to work with him.
the supreme court corrects a mistake.

I think the JWs have the right to believe in certain moral standards. She clearly broke them.
The "reinstatement" will be academic 'cause everyone will know about it and won't accept the government overruling of the decision, so what's the point?
But more important I think in this case is someone appears to be willing to cry "rape" after the fact simply to excuse their own behavior, because it's convenient to them.
EVERYONE should shun her, not just JWs.
years ago, the jws did not like modern medicine.
vaccines and other things were all deemed bad.
this gave rise to a lot of jws getting into alternative medicines.
I remember people talking about this and it wasn't in a dismissive way, it was the same crazy belief that they gave the WTS claims.
It's clearly fraud, and yet the government allows it. But then if they started to clamp down on health-related fraud there would be a lot more industry and revenue being shut off.
This is still an excellent sketch:

Yeah, didn't you hear? SS and Nazis are the new cool according to the media, we're supposed to love them because "grr, evil Russians!!!"
Thank god people are more sophisticated now and can't be led into wars like happened under Bush ...
This is an interesting listen on the topic:
i need a new religion.
it can't be trinidadian and it must be a christian church.
it's been a while since i've been to the hall (and i'm not interested in returning either) and i need a new religion.
Try Heavens Gate, I heard they have some spots open ...
I would suggest it's a silly think to ask on the internet and it's based on a false premise, that you need a new religion.
