Your shopping list would be a better fit for Tinder, you know, looking for a one night stand? I wouldn't expect such criterias when seeking for a husband!

I'm not knocking anyone here who has been happily married to the same woman for the past 30-40-50-60 years

But the world has changed.....the Culture has changed-....Society has changed.

My generation has Dating apps.

We are not confined to your local High School, or you local town. The world is our oyster. I've dated girls from Japan, Spain, Ukraine...Yes Ukraine, form Russia, all over the world. From 18 years of age to 24 the oldest. I've had to pay for their plane ticket because I hate flying, but this is the way the world works now.

If a young man is looking for a "Conservative girl that loves Jesus" you're out of luck. They may say they are conservative and they may vow they follow Jesus, and they may convince you that all they want is a loving husband, children they can raise in a Godly Home, that she wants to stay home and be the Home Care Taker. but her actions will speak the complete opposite. And if you're not smart enough, she is going to trap you like a Venus fly trap and you're the fly.

The real good looking girls that look like models don't want to get married, they just want to have fun, they want to sleep around with as many good looking guys as possible. They are not interesting in the average guy that is 5' 9 inch tall, who is morally clean, courteous, gentleman, chivalrous. Young very attractive "Girls" not women, want the tall-good looking, Chad with plenty of money to splurge on her.

The world is not like it was 20 years ago, it's a completely different monster. And the average good guy will do better if he becomes a priest or buys a female robot for his needs.

Sorry that's reality in today's world, but humans choose that route, now we got no choice but to live with it.

Look at this video, it tells the story very truthfully of today's internet society.

I'm very tall, I'm young, and I won the genetic lottery, plus...... I'm rich, and I have no desire to ever get married. Read my old posts.

The USA laws favor women in a divorce, even with a pre-nup. Smart rich young men DON'T GET MARRIED.

The problem is not in the mythology they teach from, which they did not pen,

but that people wish to be angry with myths.

It is not up to me to judge those who wish to pick fights with Bigfoot, the tooth fairy, Santa Claus, or whatever else you wish to spend your time arguing with.

Yep, words of wisdom KalebOutWest.

What's scary is people rest all their hopes, their lives, their family, on Characters created thousands of years ago by men who didn't even know that it's the earth that rotates around the sun, not the other way around. And now we are listening to those people as they describe to us what kind of Being the Almighty, the Omniscient, the Creator of Everything is like

If some random person that I never met is telling me the Sun Rotates around the earth, How in the world is he going to be able to teach me What God is like and what he requires of us.

I'll stick to Santa Claus. At least I know that if I'm not naughty but nice.......I'll get a cookie for Christmas

I just found this Today on exjw reddit. It was an invitation for JW lurkers to create an account and start posting and not be afraid. Some poster asked the same question about disfellowshipping.

Ok I got a question.

Have they changed disfellowshipped to "Removed".......because it sounds better?

I thought I read here that they are now getting a little bit better with young minors. And instead of immediately meeting with them judicially, they let the parents handle the situation with their minor children.

And elders are reaching out to disfellowshipped ones and will reinstate them as soon as possible if they come back

Answer

Over the years they have changed this expression around. Principally the NWT only lists the expression 'removed' now - which is actually a word used in Strongs concordance.

A number of other translations use the term remove, expel, purge. Nowhere is the term 'Disfellowship' used. Anywhere. As to the context in the bible WT has carved out the whole thing to fit their own narrative of mandated shunning. It doesn't matter what term they use, but since the heat is currently on in Norway - as the WT tried to defend the entire concept in court to keep/continue their government subsidy and defend their only control mechanism of fear through ostracism. So they switched it around to get rid of exclusivity to their group.

As for the rest of 'getting a bit better' etc. - its all smoke and mirrors and the core concept continues as explained above.

This seems like pure emotional blackmail to boost their numbers.

Of course it is.

But humans do what they do, even if it makes no sense. That's the way it has always been in religious Organizations as well as non-religious organizations.That's the reason the Watchtower exist and people continue to join even with all the exposure of their Child Sex abuse, deaths resulting from their No Blood Ideology, and their shunning practices. .

Look at the history of the Catholic Church, They use to execute people if you opposed them. And even with all the proof, over a billion people continue to proudly call themselves Catholic.

But it's not just the Catholic Church.

That’s why History keeps repeating itself despite all the evidence. Most people prefer to stay ignorant rather that face the harsh reality of life.

All we can do is try to help them see. Some will listen, some won’t.

Catholic Inquisition

The exact death toll of the Catholic Inquisition is difficult to determine, but estimates range from thousands to hundreds of thousands. The number of deaths depends on the region and the time period.

Spanish Inquisition

The Spanish Inquisition resulted in 32,000 executions. The Spanish Inquisition lasted for over 200 years and was a major force in Spain

Inquisition in Italy

Italian historian Andrea Del Col estimates that around 1,250 people were sentenced to death out of 51,000–75,000 cases in Italy after 1542

Inquisition in Portugal

In the 16th and early 17th centuries, about 5.7% of the people tried in Portugal were sentenced to death

Many executions were carried out by non-church tribunals, such as witch hunts in Protestant countries

Anonoy Mous What evidence do you have that they truly changed their ways. The disfellowshipping arrangement is still in place, the 2 witness rule is still in place, social control is still a thing.

As I mention in my other post, there was a letter to the elders posted a few months ago on exjw reddit. Now the term is Removed not disfellowshipped. Different guidelines on handling a person involved in conduct not becoming. A lot of the posters were furious because many had been disfellowshipped for years and still were being held back by some elders to not get reinstated. But now the letter had guidelines on reinstating disfellowshipped people immediately. Elders have been reaching out to many disfellowshipped people, and many are coming back to be able to talk to family. I remember the letter because many were pissed off, I believe a PIMO Elder posted the letter for a couple of days and then took it down for obvious reasons.

Can you honestly tell the elders that you are posting here on apostate websites and get away with it?

As I already said in my other posts, I never got baptized as a JW, but I have lots of family that are JWs. So the elders can't do shit because I post on Apostate websites.

It appears Jesus had a problem explaining his views to others.

Suddenly not everything Jesus said was true?

Jesus tells them the girl is NOT DEAD BUT SLEEPING.

Jesus is the TRUTH....He has no Sin......He cannot LIE.

So who do we believe? Jesus to tell the truth, or the People who said she had died?

Halcon, it's called "Sass"

I was trying to make a point since many believe Jesus was sent by God to perform miracles. The resurrection is a big thing to them, but three resurrections is not enough to prove anything. Worse is two resurrections, especially when Jesus admits the girl was not dead which now makes it to two resurrections.

I'm not trying to confirm Jesus was sent by God. I'm trying to show how it all falls apart when examined carefully.

‘I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’ ? He is not the God of the dead but of the living.

It appears that neither Abraham, Isaac nor Jacob died either.

It appears Jesus had a problem explaining his views to others. But others used his explanations as a means to get ahead in life. And it worked for many people

This was Liam's original issue. If the little girl was only sleeping according to Jesus, did he resurrect her or not? Liam implied that Jesus lied.

NO, I said Jesus said the Truth, because he is suppose to always tell the truth because he is God's son or God whichever form of Christianity you believe.

Jesus said; "She is not Dead, but sleeping" So he never resurrected this girl because she was never dead to begin with, and Jesus tried to tell the Crowd that but they refused to listen to Jesus

The crowd kept saying; "The girl is Dead" ...........Jesus kept saying NO SHE IS SLEEPING.

Who lied, The crowd or Jesus?...........The Crowd lied.
