thankfully my best friend who got this terrible malady is doing well after being in the hospital for more than two months!
i see some people who are still petrified over this virus.
they are still virtual prisoners in their own homes.
I get out all the time - grocery store, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, Lowe's, Walmart, etc.
I eat a lot at a couple of local truck stops / travel centers, and worry about them most because people from all over are stopping there.
So, I'm carrying on with life mostly as normal, but I am a little worried about getting it because I don't know how my body will react; I'm 60ish.
A coworker's mother died from it last week; however, she already had a liver problem.
2020-pioneer seminar video in german.. .
this file was sent to us by an anonymous kind person.
all files that are sent to atlantis are re-named, and a different download link is generated from the link the sender used.. .
Petra, thanks for relating the steps Atlantis takes to remove any possibility of the org's finding out who sends material. And, to think, they say us old farts don't know much about new technology and such. I can tell Atlantis knows what he's doing; I understand the reasoning behind each step.
By the way, I would like to be added to your list to receive new material. Do you send the material by PM or should I send you an email address?

Damn, Jofi_Wofo, how could you say that stuff is cute??? Now, if those items had Mickey Mouse and/or other Disney stuff on them, I'd agree with you. BUT... "The Best Life Ever"??? A picture of a panda in paradise??? I want to know how you feel about it when the weed you're smoking wears off.
And don't get irritated at me. I'm not a critic; I just have the ability to criticize. I don't think you're wrong; I just think I'm right.

My post above had some pics in it, but they're gone. So, some of the post doesn't make sense.
The first pic was of a tag with the phrase "The Best Life Ever". The second was of a tag showing a panda in paradise and with the phrase "everlasting life".

Yeah, barf. JWs have become so corny - almost churchy. Nothing like the old days when there was a semblance of seriousness, boldness, dignity, etc.
"Best Life Ever", my ass. It was a miserable life for me.
Sorry, folks, time ran out on that prediction. According to what I was told for decades, we should have been petting pandas for a good 30 years now.
i know several older retired witnesses who comolain abiut how little social security pays.
all of them made more than i ever did but were self employed.
they fudged the amount t they reported on taxes and thought they would never get old.
hybridous, thanks for the response. My wife and I literally everyday say we wish we had awakened in our teens. If we had, we would be retired now. However, we both have to work fulltime with no retirement prospects, and will have to work until we drop.
We didn't awaken and leave until we were mid 50's. We suffered greatly while in and will suffer the rest of our lives because of having been in.
Thanks again for the response.
this dude must have family that are jws...i can't imagine any "journalist" doing a piece on the wt and not highlighting any of their scandals.
the public does not care about jws why waste any time on them.. (link is video of interview with wt spokesidiot re: conventions, covid etc).

Oh, by the way, I forgot to mention that I agree with what you said about the video.

I watched part of the video (it was referred to in this post: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5172728314200064/interview-going-viral). The interviewer says that he is not a JW, but that his mother is.

hybridous, I am one of those who was burned because I believed at the time that JWs had "the truth" and I lived accordingly - as if the end of the world were imminent and billions of lives were at stake. Did you ever believe it?
did you notice this?
2020 governing body update #5. https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/latestvideos/docid-702020307_1_video.
why do they show the black goat in the picture?
I don't think there's anything underhanded, either; it's just odd to me. The thing is so prominent in the frame. I do think it's intentional as is every molecule atom in JW photos and videos. They might be trying to indicate "Oh, look this is Africa where they have unique animals. We JWs are so worldwide."
