Any signs that Kingdom Halls will re-open soon or door to door work will re-start again?
by eyeslice ini've not heard anything from pimi wife about going back to the khs yet let alone the door to door work.. many churches round here have re-opened if only for private pray and i am guessing that things like singing may be a factor in the reluctance of the witnesses to get back together again.
i also detect that many older ones are still quite afraid to go anywhere they may come in contact with people, even for shopping.
on the other hand, here in uk you can now go to a football match with 70,000 others shouting and chanting.. the door to door work may a total different issue.

They are taught to be deceptive, by the WT.
For Example, if they find a new Bible study, they wont talk about "Birthday and All holidays" are evil, blood transfusions, shunning Etc... They are taught to slyly indoctrinate this when the new member is half way through their brainwashing.

Deuteronomy 23:2 No one of illegitimate birth may enter the assembly of the LORD, nor may any of his descendants, even to the tenth generation.
I think an elder should be appointed at the KH door to inquire about this, for all people entering.
Also, how does one know if his/her great, great, great grandfather /grandmother was illegitimate ?

You have the slave put their earlobe against the wooden door and you pierce a hole it by hammering the sharp pointed awl through it until the awl stuck into the wood door. I imagine they'd put some sort of earring into the hole once the person stopped screaming and they cleaned up the bloody mess.
And still some call Bible the good book.

I bet my JW wife that these GBs fly in business class. She vehemently denies it.
Does anyone have evidence for this or any affirmation from any Ex-Bethelite Please ?

Exodus 21:20-21
20 “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, 21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their propertyTHe Bible can be banned for these above two verses.I have gone bald, scratching my head when I read the Whole Bible -

The Bible - God's Word or Man's
by truth_b_known inthat is the title of one of the watchtower's seemingly endless list of books that was pushed out for sale placement in the jehovah's witness' ministry.
the title does ask a great question.
those who would deny that the bible is divine in origin usually point to failed prophecy, events that do not mesh with historic evidence, scientific evidence, or even plagiarism from other religions.

Maybe God knew we would figure much of these things out by ourselves.
A parent doesnt allow the kids to figure things out by themselves. Its dangerous for the kids too. And god allowed nearly 5600 Years for mankind to figure out that diseases are caused by germs ? And that the earth spins around the sun ?
The Bible speaks a lot about core values we need to embrace if we want the human race to survive long into the future.
How about stoning a man to death because he picked up sticks on the Sabbath
How about owning slaves as well as beating them. These are all gods commands.
How about Jesus saying "Leave your family and come after me". "Hate your family and come after me"
How about Pauls advise that "Women should not speak in the congreagation"
There are more core valuses in Buddhism that are more humane than those in the Bible. I am not a Buddhist. Just saying.

I got sucked into this cult, while in India and was in this religion for 11 years until I came to know about TTAT and freed myself.
Yes Indian elders consider themselves as Angels and look down upon the common Rank and File JW. Too much of self righteousness and control. I have experienced this
