This is in reply to your letter of May 11, 2021, wherein you ask why we quote information from United Nations officials and others in our recent website article, “Protect Yourself From Misinformation.

Today, you have access to more information than ever, including the kind that can help you stay safe and healthy. But in your search, you need to beware of misinformation, such as: Misleading news, False reports & Conspiracy theories. For example, during the COVID pandemic the secretary-general of the United Nations warned of a dangerous epidemic of misinformation. “Harmful health advice and snake-oil solutions are proliferating,” he stated. “Falsehoods are filling the airwaves. Wild conspiracy theories are infecting the Internet. Hatred is going viral, stigmatizing and vilifying people and groups.” Of course, misinformation is not new. However, the Bible foretold that in our day, “wicked men and impostors [would] advance from bad to worse, misleading and being misled.” (2 Timothy 3:1, 13) And the Internet now allows us to receive—and unintentionally spread—false news more easily and quickly than ever. As a result, our email, social media, and news feeds can become filled with distorted facts and half-truths. How can you protect yourself from misleading information and conspiracy theories?

Here's a copy of what Winder/Watchtower claims to be the dress of 100 years ago in Update No. 3

Listener you are right, Winder is making an extreme point so by comparison his reasoning sounds moderate and legit

The CNE.news has come out with an article on the developments in Norway and the aftermath of the deregistration of the Watchtower there only last month. CNE stands for Christian News in Europe and it is a Christian news site for continental Europe that

Has been running since 2021 and has become one of the best-informed Christian news websites in Europe.

Here is what they had to say in a recent article titled "Jehovah’s Witnesses ease shunning rules after blow in Oslo court"

Jehovah’s Witnesses worldwide have eased the discipline for youth members after “serious wrongdoing”. The new guideline came within two weeks after the decision of the Oslo District Court in Norway to strip the Jehovahs of their official status as a registered faith community. The faith community seems to be trying to get a better position in the appeal case in Norway. (=So that is why they announced changes so fast after they lost the court case, they are positioning themselves now before the appeal to the higher court in Norway or ECHR which ever court they choose, we don't know yet)

The community came under attack for its rigid rules regarding disfellowshipping “baptised minors”. Among Jehovah’s Witnesses, it is quite common for have teenagers being baptised between 12 and 16 years. (=In fact I won't be surprised if they change that soon, and come out with another change for a minimum age for baptism, because you know that had gotten to be ridiculous with some children even being baptised as young as 6 years old in some countries. That has to come to an end purely based on this loss in Norway)

Religiously, they are seen as responsible members than, who can be disciplined. There have been cases of “disfellowshiping” after “serious wrongdoing”, resulting in “shunning”, isolation and contact bans. For individuals and families, this can be rigid and feel like psychological violence.....

The Watchtower's nightmares have just began in France. On April the 9th the French Senate passed a new "anti-cult" law that will basically strengthen the hands of MIVILUDES, the French Agency, the official anti-cult Agency that is cracking down on dangerous cults. And guess who is their new target?

The Watchtower has been in their crosshairs for years with the Watchtower having been branded as a "sect" , a name that the Watchtower didn't like it one bit and has fought the Agency long and hard for years to reconsider. Well now with this new "anti-cult law" that the French Senate approved with 146 "yes" votes against the 104 "no's" the anti cult Agency MIVILUDES has been given new powers to go after cults that cause psychological traumas to their members. Reminds you someone you know?

The law’s name refers to “reinforcing the fight against cultic deviances.” The reason offered for a new crackdown on “cults” is that the number of reported incidents, received by the governmental anti-cult agency MIVILUDES is growing. So here really some of the main changes in the fight against cults that this new law introduces:

CHANGE 1:

Note that the State Council, when examining the draft law, recommended to drop this article as dangerous for freedom of speech and “the freedom of scientific debates.”

However, the government rejected the recommendation of the State Council and kept the article. The fight in the Senate only led to the introduction of a new paragraph protecting the “whistleblowers” who reveal questionable practices of medical companies. Although this primarily applies to medical companies it has broader ramifications in the way the French goverment will go to protect whistleblowers that expose cults and their practices. That of course extends to exjws who go after the Watchtower, as it stands in most cases they are not protected by the Law and Watchtower lawyers are free to go after them with the threat of legal repricautions....
