Why does the US only give us candidates that have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel already? Sheesh.

ELM - Elderly Lives Matter
by BourneIdentity ini believe a light has to be shown on the elderly, forget blm.
sure, blacks are being mistreated by law enforcement at times, but there are hundreds of millions of people on a daily basis having no regard for the elderly by not wearing masks in the middle of a pandemic.
they believe the elderly have to be casualties for the economy and getting normalcy back.

What I hate about JWs is they want all their adherents to live in a constant state of paranoia and fear of these things to come like the GT and Armageddon. The fear and anxiety motivates them to do more. I wasted decades of my life worrying things that never happened. I’m so glad to be free and not stress over any of that bullshit now.
It appears you have traded in that for something new to be in fear of. Life is too short, just enjoy it and stop stressing.

Matt,
What about the millions of doctors around the world that wear a mask their entire shift every day they work? I don’t see them gasping for air, getting sick and keeling over and dying Get real, such a weak and stupid argument.

Let's reason on a few things.
Assume the virus is real and you are wrong. Most likely you are not wearing a mask, so you are putting your health at risk as well as possibly putting others' health at risk.Assume the virus is a hoax and there is some other agenda. What are you doing to change that agenda's outcome? Nothing, if there is something going on, no one can do anything about it.So with your stance, you cannot make a positive impact with either. Your in a scenario that you can’t win, you're fucked either way. -

They believe the elderly have to be casualties for the economy and getting normalcy back. I say fuck BLM, when are the elderly going to be shown any respect or dignity? I can’t stand this generation of people, so fucking selfish and self absorbed.

I can understand being in a judicial committee if someone ratted you out, but as has been said already by others, you are a complete fool to open up to the elders about ANYTHING! No matter how close you are to them and if you consider them like a father figure or best friend, their number one priority is keeping the congregation clean and answering to the circuit overseer. They don’t care how much they fuck up your life, just as long as they can feel a sense of pride by upholding the cleanliness in the Organization.
No one should ever approach men and ask for forgiveness or try to prove your repentance to them. That’s what prayer is for if you believe in God. Why even feel guilty about sinning, we have all been born sinners, it’s what we fucking do!

Black Lives Matter—Do You Agree With Their Philosophy?
by minimus ini agree with people who say all lives matter.
i think blm is a racist group.
if white people pushed an agenda saying white lives matter, some people would have a conniption..

Racism will never end. The biggest improvement the police force could make is requiring all body cameras to be on the entire time. If police can shut them off at their discretion, they are worthless. It needs to be like an airplane black box, it’s always recording.

Witnessing Work to Stop?
by Sea Breeze inmy 87 year old dad called me for the first time in 16 years the other day .... just to chat.
i was floored to say the least since he didn't even bother to call me when my mom died several years ago.
he called again today to inquire how i felt about jehovah's witnesses.

I would assume the GB or branches are analyzing this the same way as businesses are, weighing the risk versus reward of reopening.
Some businesses have the majority of their employees working from home and have been surprised how amazing things have gone from a productivity and revenue generating standpoint. With those types, to have everyone return into office buildings, there is high risk and very low reward.
With JWs and being at meetings, you will have several older ones at high risk and for what reward? The same spiritual food can be taken in from home on Zoom. And no doubt if they reopen, they will have to encourage all who don’t feel safe going out, to stay home and join by calling in or if Zoom is still an option. You will have many do that and the ones attending in person will probably be discouraged seeing the KH so empty.
In my view, the reward has to far outweigh the risk to have things go back to normal. I don’t feel that will happen until everyone is vaccinated or we test everyone and they have antibodies. The only other way the reward would be higher than the risk is if the internet went out. Boy, wouldn’t that be incredible, truly an end of the world scenario!
i know this topic is about the door to door work, so I went a little off topic about the KHs. But I’m assuming they are going through this thought process for both things.

Yes SBF, this does appear to be another case of the brothers and sisters running ahead of Jehovah’s celestial chariot. How many times do they have to be reminded not to do that.
