There is so much silence about the JW's in the Ukraine conflict. Are the jw men arrested because they don't want to fight? How is that going in the hyper nationalist fase the country is in? I mean the side of "democratic" Ukraine.

Should you abandon your cash flow??

i was wondering what your guys' meeting attendance was like.
our meetings here is like 50/50 with zoom and in person.
the spanish has it a little "better" with it being like 30% zoom attendance with most attending in person.. i've heard of congregations in other states having attendance where most (even elders and ms) attend meeting only via zoom and even have their cameras off.
I asked my JW family and they gave no direct answer to this. They did not like the question 😁.

watchtower lawyer david brumley has been fined for misleading the court during the discovery process of the montana case.
the result was another 17 months of the courts time and the plaintiff having to produce evidence that wtpa did have a pivotal role in congregational business, which brumley had denied hoping that the courts would take his word for it.
he will be personally responsible for reimbursing the costs accrued by the plaintiff, due to his misleading affidavit.. see mark o donnell's twitter statement here:https://twitter.com/mark_j_odonnell/status/1562205475374043136?t=emdh163jnfi8kb6zch-uga&s=19.

there seems to be a push to fast track the younger men to become elders.
beings jesus was 30 when he took up his ministry, i would think that would sort of be an age gauge...the older men were to have their children in subjection, so some were old enough to have children that were old enough to want to rebel.
( that's my slant ) how will the ones who have been jw for years respond to being counseled by those younger than some of their grandchildren?
I became a young MS in 1990. They need new recrutes then.

i met freddie franz who was born in the 1880’s and many others from the 1880’s.
but as a very small child i remember someone very old aged 106 and that person was born around 1856 which means that he was around people from the 1700’s..
Yes, my great-grandfather, born in 1889.
Hè told me many story's.

thursday while i was at work, a new elder stopped by the house (almost 3 years after fading) to encourage us to go back to meetings.
said everyone misses us.
if you did, why not stop by and say hi every now and then?
Take care I should say, old chap.

for a bit of back ground.
i’m a full blown pomo apostate.
nothing would please me more to see wt burn to the ground.
Same scenario here. We have good contact with all the JW family. Of course there is an Elephant in the room. But we are happy with it.
