Let me know if I'm missing something
Common sense and critical thinking
do you have any evidence that the gb had bad intent?
as opposed to blind faith/cognitive dissonance and honest mistakes.. i'm inclined to think they have the best of intentions and are just wrong (primarily because the bible is wrong), but i'm willing to consider the evidence otherwise..

I disliked your post, and your comments afterwards, you have obvious bias.
Actually I find that many derogatory comments here are extremely biased. I think most of them are amazing people, and I wish more non-Witnesses were like them.
You’ve labeled people apostates and the JWs as amazing.
I’m not going to feed you any further

...while under house arrest sheltering in place?.
i'm editing a (non jw related) novel i hope to self publish soon.
i may be making an announcement about that in the near future.
I love yard work, I have been spending heaps of time outside and given my very limited social life nothing much has changed for me.
There is a massive native and fruit tree nursery that home delivers plants Australia wide, I’ve been doing my bit supporting the local economy and staying isolated with my plants.
I miss sports on the tv though, without doubt the hardest adjustment I’ve had to make.
prudent decision even if the pandemic is over you are going to have people that.
lost jobs can't afford to go.
not allowed any vacation time rest of year.
Sir82 absolutely nailed it, I know a few that loved putting piles of cash in the box, at least one of those won’t contribute a dime electronically and I think you could multiply that by thousands of individuals.
what the hell is the problem with the famous “men of old” in the bible?
for some strange reason those old geezers (and some not so old) could not recognize who they were screwing?.
my wife was listening to this week’s bible reading about jacob, laban, and the sisters leah, and rachael.
It’s so stupid, the Lot story is morally repugnant.
Who mistakenly fucks the wrong person?
I’m no expert on the female anatomy, I have noticed that the vagina is always attached to a body and a face. Pretty hard to get things wrong or mixed up, this indiscriminate rooting that was taking place in the bible is inexcusable on many levels
this period of crisis seems endless and absolutely weird but end it will.. in the mean-time people are working successfully from home, the skies have cleared, international meetings are held on line.
lots of frustrating commuter journeys are just not necessary.
the world is cleaning itself almost visibly in days, the skies are clearing.
Sport too. Can we live without it? I think so.
Never trust a man that doesn’t love sport
background info: although i'm an apostate, i don't hate jehovah's witnesses, or the organization itself.
actually i find that many derogatory comments here are extremely biased.
i think most of them are amazing people, and i wish more non-witnesses were like them.
Also, many here a shunned by the JWs simply for not believing in the rubbish any longer. Not just the odd JW, but systemic shunning from lifelong childhood friends, shunned from your own parents or children.
I’d be careful about announcing them as special
good day former jdubs, i'm a new member, particularly looking for it experts whome can verify if the jw apps track its members and record audio, particularly the khonf app.
if you download app on google play store and click the headphones, a pop up requiring user to click pop up to enable audio recording is displayed.
i'm minorly aware of the evolution of tech and tracking scandals.
I think you should assume that any company tracks as much about you as they can and the platform allows, because that data is valuable to them to make decisions about their services and possibly to others in ways you may not imagine
.. is the data for sale? Maybe it’s not supposed to be, but we know how the world works
imagine you or a loved one have to go onto a ventilator and are given the choice of how it should be powered.
what are people picking?.
coal or oil powered energy.
back-up power: dieser diesel generator.
Obviously, I have two diesel motor vehicles and a tractor that runs diesel, so I’m buying gallons of the shit anyway, but haven’t needed to run a generator for power.
I’ve got no moral problem with burning fuel, if you see me driving it’s obvious.
The thing with renewables, and I could go on but I won’t, is that our state and federal governments invented botch schemes, miserable failures that are screwing everyone over, we all pay more and it does nothing whatsoever for the environment.
Now they are busy inventing schemes to fix the covid19 crisis, god help us all
