I showed on of my JW (True Believers) that Kingdom Halls will be opening soon. He had a fit!
by pistolpete inso i showed one of my older uncles the link on jw.org.. https://www.jw.org/en/news/jw/region/global/the-governing-body-announces-that-some-in-person-meetings-will-resume-in-select-areas/.
keep in mind that this is one of the relatives that is a true believer and used every excuse you can think of for the cancellation of all kingdom hall meetings.
and he also used every scriptural argument you can make up to justify the end of the door to door ministry.

Haven’t written one. I have no intention of writing one because I’ve reached an amicable point with my PIMI JW family. I also can’t see the the point of it either.

If wt wanted to give PIMOs a legitimate excuse to fade. I’d say they vaccination rule might be the thing to do it.

You're DISFELLOWSHIPPED, Please---DON'T CONTACT US, Until You Return to Jehovah's Organization!
by pistolpete ini just heard this story from one of my relatives.
i'm leaving a lot of things out.. a jw couple had three kids and raised them in the religion.
the oldest one got disfellowshipped at 18 years of age because he committed fornication with a jw girl.

I reckon that lawyer should be stripped of his license for saying that. Even that video a few years back shows the mother not answering the phone, when her DF daughter called. Has anybody tried to file a complaint with the law society. It would be interesting to see what happens

Activity does not mean growth. Last year they went backwards and i expect this year will be the same.
I won’t repeat myself.

Really, it just goes to show you how ineffective their witnessing is if in the birthplace of Jehovah`s witnesses the USA is 1% or less .
I totally disagree. Compared to the LDS the JWs have twice the activity rates. A JWs are also more engaged in their faith. Quite frankly JWs would blow the lds out of the water.

Question about Congregation accounts in ECUADOR 🇪🇨
by suavojr inwondering if anyone here knows why local congregations in ecuador do not have accounts under the congregation’s name.
i just found out they use the personal information of one of the elder’s 😳 wtf .
what’s the legal reason for this?

I’m guessing if the bank account was in the elders name, and supposedly with no auditing accountability. Wt would just be leaving themselves wide open to be ripped off.
