1Anthony "expensive scotch" Morris seems to revel in the thought of this destruction he wishes on people. Perhaps he forgets the thoughts from Ezekiel 33:11 Say to them, ‘As surely as I live, declares the Sovereign Lord, I take no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but rather that they turn from their ways and live. Turn! Turn from your evil ways! Why will you die, people of Israel?’

Remember when the WT lessons used to have all those Greek or Hebrew words? It was always a hoot to see how badly they were pronounced by the WT reader at the meeting. Sent a note to the teaching and writing committees when I was working on some special projects at Crooklyn asking that they at least include the phonetic pronunciations in the lesson. Never got a peep of a reply.

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.

Bethelites are exempt. Test out on the sheeples first see how many die.

I guess it would be OK if they are planning to be disfellowshiped themselves.
BTW ever notice that they have spelled it both disfellowshiped and disfellowshipped in the publications.

Could end of November be special?
by Kosonen indid you know that noah entered the ark in the end part of november and also that jesus' followers flead jerusalem around 25th of november 66ce?.
could it be that a significant group of jehovah's witnesses would begin to flee to the "wilderness" in the end of november?
revelation 12 speaks about a flight of a symbolic woman to a wilderness.

The only thing November brings to me annually is bills. My house insurance, car insurance, and house taxes all come due in November. So I'm bill poor each November.

Does the Watchtower/JW Organization Regard its Readers & JWs as Fools and are they Secretly Laughing at Them?
by Disillusioned JW indoes the watchtower/jw organization regard its readers & jws as fools and are they secretly laughing at them?
for some examples consider the following.. the wt literature has many times used odd language where they say one thing but word it in such a way as to suggest something else.
they have said that a number of jws drew incorrect expectations about a number of things, including about 1914 and 1975, though it was the wt itself which proclaimed and taught those expectations in the wt's literature to jws.

One thing about sheep... sheep are stupid.
That's the WT concept in a nutshell.

What Do You Think?
by Atlantis indo you think the tower is getting money from the government for encouraging people to get vaccinated?
or is there just too much lemon in my tea?.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit that they are on the take. Takers always take and never give. Givers always give and never take.
Remember when they made a big thing of the Quick Build program entering into a special arrangement touted as a national buying program. Allegedly to save the brothers money. In reality it was so they could get kickbacks from all the purchases.
Always looking for an angle they tout as a benefit. BAH!

Get Vaccinated or Get laid Off
by StephaneLaliberte ini’m personally for the vaccine, took two shots and would take a third if asked.
but i know a friend of mine that doesn’t want to take the vaccine who works for the government and now is faced with this choice: get vaccinated or get laid off.
i don’t agree with this measure as it is totalitarian and runs against my core belief in individual freedom.. now, with that being said, what i don’t understand is that my friend still won’t get vaccinated.

I remember getting a smallpox vaccine, them scratching and scratching a circle on my arm. Polio wasn't so bad, a few drops on a sugar cube as I recall. I'm curious what would happen if today this was the smallpox or polio? There were nay sayers then, but would people politicize, antivax, protest yah or nay and get all hot and bothered about one side of the issue or another? Would these dreaded maladies get reduced in threat despite an uproar?
Thoughts?
