  "breaking news | 2023 conventions.

  we are pleased to announce that the governing body has decided that, jehovah willing, we will resume in-person regional conventions in 2023. branches will now begin scheduling dates and selecting venues.

  we pray for jehovah’s rich blessing to be with all those involved in the planning.".

  Resume! Resume! Resume! ...

  even if it means re-redefining the JW "highest sanctity of life" rhetoric WT used to cower down millions of JWs inside their homes for 2 years by fear of viral propaganda.

  There are more cases of active community transmission now than when WT suspended in-person activities.

  Apparently, when cash calls, the GB becomes suddenly willing to have millions of JWs venture out to contract and/or transmit a deadly plague & pestilence during this 'last day of the last/last days'... 💰💸

  'a jehovah’s witness who partnered with a couple he trusted based on their shared faith is suing them over ownership of a religion-themed gift shop in orange county.. greg holland of victoria, british columbia, claims in a federal lawsuit that thomas and nanci matos of pine bush, coerced him into relinquishing his property.. “through deceit and intimidation, the matoses stole holland’s investment and interest in ministry ideaz llc,” the complaint states.

  Since WT attempted to litigate those pettily monetised Lego spoof videos, might WT legal file litigation against the df-JW owner of Ministry Ideaz for a share of those substantial profits?

  WT will probably turn a blind eye if Ministry Ideaz was/is a generous donor to WT.

  question/s for the PIMO

  to maintain the facade of being a jw, when doing the ministry, are you not advocating for the gb?

  the bible studies, after all are to get people to understand they can't gain life without the "faithful slave" ( you have to be baptized as jw to survive) .how does it make you feel?

  if you are parroting an answer in a paragraph that you know is wrong, how does it make you feel?

  @Kgirl

  You make some interesting points, from an ethical perspective; but why the scriptures strategically plugged in throughout your paragraphs? It reads a bit like a WT study article.

  Do you expect the forum to sit down and bible study the verse citations while we read your post?

  Are you POMI?

  Without PIMO JWs we would not be receiving the steady stream of WT document leaks received these days.

  PIMO JWs can also perform helpful relief efforts from inside the WT cult. PIMO elders are often very compassionate, and can be valuable advocates during times of dissonance.

  PIMO bethelites may eventually rise to offices of highest authority where they could possibly reform or dismantle the harmful features of JW culture.

  It is entirely asinine to here criticise JWs that choose a PIMO approach, which in most situations is intended to better situate themselves, or compassionately preserve marital union and other beloved relationships; which rightly take precedence over acronym.

  It is not always a black & white "in or out" issue.

  Religiously "divided" households can certainly coexist happily peaceful, and it is a beautiful magnanimous thing when it can be achieved. Good on them.

  Freedom of personal belief is a human birthright. It is also a private decision.

  Disgraceful that any here would denounce or assign guilt to "PIMO"...

  PIMO should be commended for awakening from the WT cult cocktail, and subsequently navigating a careful retreat that they find is best for themselves and their loved ones.

  That being said, PIMO should not be confused with WT apologism, which is rightly excoriable.

  here in 2022 if anyone says anything against the vaccines even a little bit you are almost apostate.. someone once mentioned all vaccinated sports stars collapsing and someone else said not to speak badly about the gb or by extension jehovah.. the gb can’t get out of this one, it’s gone too far.

  it’s now the case that if you speak against the vaccines you are speaking against the gb and by extension jehovah .

  the org.

  was all too willing to emphasize to the government - especially the left that they very obedient to the calls for mask, vaccine, and lockdown mandates.

  those that know about the great reset know what i'm talking about.

  Placebo was randomized into the jab lots. That is standard procedure for experimental pharmaceuticals, and is also why a person may experience neither risk nor benefit.

  The CV19 "vaccine" was, by definition, an experimental pharmaceutical, and could be administered on a massive scale only by way of emergency authorisation which temporarily relaxed standard research & development safety protocols for experimental pharma. In 2005, revisions to the legal framework of International Health Regulations pertaining to phases of a "pandemic" were enacted which were later cited during CV19 to justify declaring a state of emergency and introduction of the jab.

  The general public itself, once accepting injection, unknowingly became the safety trial of an emergency experimental use project.

  Under normal circumstances, experimentations should PRECEDE introduction of pharma to the public masses. Safety trials (animal/human) require years of analysis. CV19 jabs lack such a proven performance record.

  WT may never acknowlege liability for its mass endorsement of what is slowly becoming recognised as a broadly harmful experimental pharmaceutical.

  Only if a sizeable number of jabbed WT elites and their wives mysteriously fall ill or drop dead (which they probably won't) might we ever see some sort of cunning backpedaling act from WT corporate.

  WT spinsters will likely claim: 'we always said it is a personal decision, and regardless of our strongly slanted policies, ultimately YOU made the personal decision to bare skin for the needle.'
