interesting read.
while the daily news is not a high-brow paper, it does get a lot of views.
(i have known jw families this extreme towards children).
Owen was drinking and just experimenting with “stuff”
When you get older Owen and develop some life experience and maturity you may well realise that such behaviour is damaging to your health and is detrimental in so many ways. There really are great positives in living by Bible standards. As many other religions also attest to.
now that the time has past i can give up the surprise that i sprung on the elders before my da'ing announcement.
i emailed the entire congregation!
or at least as many addresses that i had which was most of those who use email.
An update? It’s so painful to try and listen to this video as it’s over 2 hours.
And it is of very little substance and should be condensed down to say 10 minutes to highlight the main points of what is trying to be conveyed. The host does get hyped up as if he has something vitally important to convey but always comes up short and just becomes extremely boring and empty of anything that’s meaningful. So hard to see what the fuss is over these empty videos. But may appeal to some individuals.
hope everyone on board is happy and well!.
jw's don't know what they are missing.

We don’t have that in Australia.

I’m intrigued What are we really missing?
this morning i decided to log into the local cong meeting on zoom, during the public talk the speaker likened the covid vx to jesus ransom sacrifice, saying that those who didn't avail of the vx, the 'anti vaxxers', are just like people who refuse to put faith in jesus.. i felt sick, knowing my unvxed but active jw parents were sitting there, i logged off immediately.
surely such talk is pure blasphemy or am i just over reacting?!.
i appreciate your thoughts, it will hopefully help me to approach my jw family with facts and logic, i'm praying they wake up fully and 'get out of her', i know they have reservations that's why they refused the vx..
Apparently the Amish in Pennsylvania refused the shots and are so much healthier for that decision. Are they smarter than JW’s?

Anti - vaxxers are just like people who refuse to put faith in Jesus. Well that would have to be one of the most absurd comments I have ever heard. The GB are not health professionals and they certainly do not have the training and experience of those who have thoroughly researched safe alternatives. For example natural therapists and herbalists who have practiced for decades know about safe and effective treatments.
As Samuel Herd said it is a personal choice as to what kind of health treatment each of us wants to pursue. That to me is the bottom line. With the 100,000’s of people who have succumbed to many serious side effects due to taking these vax shots my view is to practice extreme caution when it comes to protecting one’s health.
if not, what's in it for the gb?.
but seriously, how is it supposed to work?
pictures of jws in paradise show them raising crops, wearing clothes and building houses.
Definitely no need for money in the New World.
Barter and share things out of a generous spirit. Money to me is a necessary evil
in this evil insane Satanic World, but why would it be needed in the paradise?
we might have russians involved in the middle east and are attacking israel.. wait.. i thought the watchtower and tract society was the central figures in the end times.
.
not that i believe in any of this nonsense but any news in jw world about how the evangelical narrative might be playing out closer than the wts stupidity.
So in your mind is Armageddon as far off as ever?
Or being just speculation as you put it it will never come?
That to me is a dangerous approach.
what's the current jw stance on retirement savings?
i know it changed.
pre1975 it was an attitude of "don't worry about retirement, this system is ending soon".
They have vaults full of gold and silver?
How interesting, where are these vaults and what do you think WT intends to do with this wealth prior to Armageddon?
thank you atlantis!!!.
