I never understood how jw's handle their history.
When a witness dies, he or she is forgotten in a year.
When a local jw building is left no one cares.
If the HQ is sold for billions to Kushner, Trump and Reibling / Taurus (witness) no one cares.
A sect. All for the money.

straight from the horse's gb's mouth - from the 2022 convention broadcast.. it's at the 38 min.

30 secs.

point of the jw broadcast: https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/2022convention/pub-co-r22_1_video.

When I watched this, I fell from my chair. Since then I avoid watchtower "education" at all terms.
They are mad.

"Jehovah God"
by Jeffro in
1. jw
2. experiences
the expression "jehovah god" has always seemed strange to me.

even when i was a jw, i found the term awkward, and never used it myself.

both words are nouns intended to be synonyms of each other, unless the name "jehovah" is being used as an adjective, which is also weird.

The last years in the organisation I only used the prase "heavenly father" and "almighty father in heaven".
Of course I was more and more on the elders radar.

It says also a lot about the human vision of jw.org.
Destruction and deportation. Or obey.
North Korea style.

the last 2 1/2 years have been extremely stressful.

while the rest of the world was dealing with covid, i was also dealing with cancer.

in fact it seems none of my doctors knew about it.
