I feel we’ve turned the corner as well and things are looking up. But I feel a lot of this shit has been rigged to accomplish many agendas. Just give it a few weeks and the next big thing will happen. I hope that I’m wrong.

Economic Recovery after COVID-19
by Simon init feels like we've really turned a corner, this morning especially.. the covid lockdowns are ending and medical systems were not overwhelmed plus there are existing treatments that have been proven to be effective (like hydroxychloroquine) and new vaccines and medicines in the pipeline.
a week or so ago the dems were dead against opening things up but since they are encouraging protests (which often turn violent) they can't continue that stance - thus proving trumps claim that it will soon be gone.
the majority of the deaths were politician-assisted (which i hope people are prosecuted for) so it's not the big risk we were led to believe and (over) reacted to.. the bls reported this morning that the us economy just added a huge number of jobs (most on record) and will undoubtedly benefit even more from a drive to source local production and supply chains going forwards.

by phoenixrising inthe fake news wants us to believe that one cop who murdered one person sparked all this.

JWs and Covid Benefits
by minimus inwhat a wonderful time to be a jehovah’s witness!
for the most part you don’t have to go and preach you don’t have to go to meetings and you can stay home and watch what happens on your ipad.
these are the glory days!!

The typical morning is drive to a territory and take 8-10 houses. By that time, the group is ready for a break. It’s easy to sit and chat for 45 minutes over food and coffee. Then you have a person take a return visit on one side of town and then someone else on the other side of town and your morning is complete. Everyone feels great that they served Jehovah fully that day! 🤮 -

JWs want to preach right now so very badly, they feel the fish are biting
by BourneIdentity inthey know many people are fearful and feeling vulnerable due to world events.. but something i’ve always considered is how will they be better off by becoming a jw.
they can be a jw, but the world events still are happening causing everyone anxiety.
and no, jws are not immune from this, jws are more anxious and paranoid as ever right now.

I should have said the Uber Dubs. I would agree, the majority are very likely loving this break from it. Most only go through the motions to appear spiritual and appease family and friends.

I think the majority of JDubs are going to find it VERY hard to want to go door to door once things get back to normal. The hardcore ones will be balling their eyes out and so grateful to be back out.

Thunderous Applause Around The Stadium
by Number 6 ingrowing up in the 70's and 80's in the jw religion who remembers the massive stadium gigs the watchtower used to hold?.
we used to denounce false religion in the starkest of terms.
we were right and by god we were letting anyone who listened know it.

I do recall those times and how motivating they were. You would leave Sunday and really ponder over how you could give more to Jehovah, it was like a drug. We thought it was Holy Spirit working on us. I don’t know if it was more exciting back then or we were so deeply entrenched and brainwashed.
All I know now is the conventions are boring as fuck and there is no semblance of those past times and excitement.

If Trump has his way and the military comes into the larger US cities, I think the population will be begging to have the corrupt cops back in power.

So really, what benefit do they get by converting? Is it just to feel like your better than everyone else and have all life’s answers? Which we know isn’t the case.
They can’t even feel comfortable about learning there is no hell and going to a paradise earth, because most JWs I know aren’t sure they are good enough to make it. That comes from all the leaders preaching they are never doing enough, do more, give more! They are much worse off I feel, in a past religion they believed they were going to heaven with no doubts in their minds.
Do any of you see what strong benefits someone gains by becoming one? The only thing I can possibly think of is the instant group of friends they gain.
