i was thinking that since russell started the movement in 1879 which became jehovah's witnesses in 1931 never has there been a period in time when all their activities just - stopped.
especially the preaching work.. do you think they will find some obscure verse in daniel that talks about this period of time and try to make a greater fulfillment?
like the 70 weeks of years or the 42 months?

Hi all,
It's been a while. Lot going on. I had a Covid divorce last year over Zoom. Not pretty but I got a good deal.
Anyway,
My friend who is still active said there is unconscious resistance towards going back to meetings. There was a very low turnout and the rest were on zoom.

i been seeing several experiences by jws who are waking up very quickly.
not years, not months, not even days-----but minutes.
it seems that all the hypocrisy of the watchtower is becoming more obvious to the members.
It's great that witnesses are waking up.
i just launched a new website to talk about my books.
the website has links to all three books in the alternate history trilogy i published over the last year.
of more interest to this group there is a description of the suspense/thriller i plan to release this summer.
Good job JeffT!
I'm also using lockdown to write a novel.

last night i dreamt i was at a circuit assembly; i even had a walk-on speaking part early in the morning program.
i spent the rest of the day “working” the event in a security detail.
the dream lasted until the entire day’s program was over.
Yes I do. What's interesting is that the JWs are shunning me when I dream I'm going to the Kingdom Hall.
Some dreams are so real.
i often wondered over the years what happened to a lot of the old posters from this group.
going back to the late 1990s a few of the names i recall...blacksheep, gypsywildcactus (i know she's ok as we're friends on facebook still), onacruise, minimus, veniceit, flower, prisca, bendrr, refinersfire, kent, englishman, shit...dare i say it evilforce lol, snittlesnacks (what a twat), scully, mouthy, talesin from nova scotia, xenawarrior.
littletom (from glasgow in scotland), outlaw, goaty, bisous, uncle brucey (australian character who loved his wildkife photography) - struggling now to remember more names.i know there are many more.
I've been reading this forum since 2000 and plucked up the courage to join in 2003.
Used to be a member of Witnesses.net and Hour Glass 2 outpost.
every now and again i would miss meetings due to health, surgeries, work etc.. when i would miss a meeting here and there i didn't particularly feel this "weirdness.".
it wasn't until i would miss 3 or more consecutive meetings that i felt this weirdness upon entering the kh.. i can't really explain it but it feels like i was entering the kh for the first time.
it's not like when you take a 2 week vacation and come back to work.
Yes. I was inactive for three months. And when I went back to the Sunday meeting an elder said to me "we've missed you" which was cobblers because he never even reached out to me to find out why I wasn't there.
