I'm in central California and yes the wt is delivering food, mainly product, to many congregations. Everyone, the jw's, think that the supplies are being provided by the wt and none of the elders have said anything to the contrary!

so a couple of weeks ago my wife (who is an active jw) got a delivery of apples, oranges, potatoes, carrots and onions.. the story i heard was that the "branch bought a bunch of food that would go to waste and was delivering it".. i am in california and a friend of mine in another cong.
50 or so miles away had the same thing happen.. a few days ago we got another delivery and as a matter of fact my wife was asked if she could "help jehovah with delivering his gifts".
unfortunately she is in poor health and unable to so so.. anyway, the story seems fabricated to me and i am wondering what is really going on.. does anybody have any ideas?

this sort of thing ?
"jehovah's witnesses state that black lives matter, as all lives matter".
" jehovah's witnesses join black lives matter rally".
I'm basically a born in also and am certainly not a racist. But it sure took a very long time for a person of color or even a non American white man to make it to the top tier of the wt organization! 'Logically' it follows that jehober must favor white American men!

i still like the commentary on the jw.org monthly’s, i can skip through some parts.
but it seems like he is pushing too hard to put out videos and the quality is getting very low on the content..
Everybody don't like everybody but everybody likes somebody. Personally I like John Cedars. His commentary is sometimes a bit much but it's usually factual and up to date.'
You can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time!

hello, i am in the beginning stages of a slow fade.
over the years i have become more and more dissatisfied with the beliefs, teachings, and organizational practices of the organization.
i no longer have faith in it.
How can what is going on right now be any worse that what took place in Europe during the time of Hitler?
just saying!
just an odd thought i guess.
i saw a large snake in the back of my house the other day and it went on its merry way.
i just asked myself, what if the snake turned around and wanted to have a philosophical discussion on life, the universe or the origin of creation and then began to ask me questions?
most bible believers have never really even considered how absolutely absurd this bible tale is! Once you wake up you see a lot of things differently1

God's chosen nation (lol lol) the Hebrews, had some very bizarre rituals to say the least. Getting 'high', being 'under the influence' would certainly have helped them to do some of the shit they were required, by god, to do!
Senseless animal slaughter considered sacrifices
Use of the magical Urim and Thummim described by the wt as: Objects used to ascertain the divine will when questions of national importance needed an answer from Jehovah.
What else?

In my efforts to 'reverse witness' I always encourage people to watch and listen to Stephen Lett. If they can take him seriously, I know that my efforts are in vain!

i'm reading babylon the great has fallen, god's kingdom rules, published 1963. this was studied years ago when i was about 10-12 years old.
i wanted to just read some of the beliefs from decades ago.
my wife wants to know why i'm reading this book.
You gotta wonder what kind of dementia drug that "Mad Freddy" was on when he wrote the Babylon book? I needed drugs to sit through the book study when that book was on the menu!

archie bunker from all in the family was considered by many as a racist.
there are still many people who think and act like him.
of course, in today’s world, there are many extremes.

Also, the white guy being killed wouldn't be on the news and wouldn't be used as an excuse to riot and loot.
I respectfully disagree Simon!
If 6 black cops pinned down and suffocated a white man in public, the outrage would be of such a magnitude that you can be sure that the racist president of the country, tRump would be all over the news, twitter, and every other means of media and outreach to express an immediate need for action, arrests, and Congressional action!
There is quite a vast chasm of difference in the 2 scenario's.
Senario # 1----- A "black cop of Somali origin gunned down an innocent and unarmed white woman"
Senario #2------ 6 white cops (probably of USA origin) allow, watch, or do nothing as black man is pinned to the ground cutting off his ability to breathe for 6-8 minutes!
I do condemn rioting and looting---------but we all know that desperate people do desperate things!
