How much do Elders actually get along with each other?
by Davros ini was reading in the shepherding book that elders should “ cultivate and maintain friendships with one another.”, and thought to myself “bulls$it!” i remember that most of the elders in my old congregation were nothing but nasty asses.
i know it may vary from congregation to congregation, but do elders generally get along with each other behind closed doors in elders meetings?
or, are they often in conflict with each other?

I can add quite a recent story from my former congo.
My friend who is an elder now, complained me about his fellow-elder and his wife who are known to be bullies, slanderers and outright liars. When this whole conflict story had got to the CO's attention, he said, in effect 'Shut up, all of you - unless you both want to be removed!'
Now, they both quietly hate each other...
P. S.: It's so cute :)

by Pallbearer inrussia's reason for banning jehovah's witnesses is said to be due to extremism.
but what exactly does that mean, or refer to?

I'd say 'ALL of the above' plus some other local (rational and not too rational) reasons

The retiring of our dear Atlantis and Petra will definitely make the Borg super happy.
Still, I'm very grateful to them and their team/sources for all the work they've been doing for years!
I would love to see them back to work, of course :) - but fully respect any decision they make.

"She could have just walked out."
by Lost in the fog incan you really imagine that a young teenager in a room full of stern grown-ups is going to say "i've had enough of this and i am walking out."?
i really hope it will go to trial.
utah high court weighs case of woman who says church made her listen to audio of her rape as a teenager.

I wouldn't trust this sick and tricky lying bastards from the Borg to deal with any children in general, and with CSA in particular. -

Thetruthhurts - did they tell you there were non-white slave-owners, and white slaves?
Did they tell you the world is not that uniform to make such broad statements like 'whites inherently having privilege that minorities do not'?
P.S. I too could go on about this but I'll stop here 🙂

New Discord server.
by Mike1 ini recently created a discord server in order to create a community of exjw and associated ones.
the decision to create it came from a desire to have an inclusive and safe environment for those affected by the wt.
one in which we can share ideas and experiences, and meet other people with similar interests.

The link doesn't work, though :)
We use Discord heavily in the Russian-speaking XJW-community for quite a while.
It's actually, quite a handy platform - as far as I can tell, so far.

Zoom meetings, how long ?
by Phizzy ini was wondering two things, 1: how long in total are the zoom meetings, i presume the sunday one is the longest ?.
and 2: if you use zoom for free, the session only lasts 40 minutes, so do they have an intermission so people can log back in, or are all jw's expected to pay for the "privilege" ?.

I wonder will they even ever end. Or all the Kingdumb Halls will go for sale...
Smth like "GB loves you and cares for your health. Reports from all over the world show the great feedback about Zoom meetings. So, dear bros and sis we've decided to keep holding all our meetings online, bla-bla-bla. Click the DonateNow button at the top right. Love, your 8 GB-Tubbies"

They Are Going To Start Clamping Down With Staying At Home - Local Needs + GB Update #4
by thedepressedsoul inmany of us have watched the gb #4 update.
most of us jumped for joy when they basically said that there will be no meeting in person for a long time to come.. one aspect we overlooked was how hard they hit home the "love of neighbor".
how this "love" is what makes a true christian and as a result our love for our neighbors will motivate us to stay at home.. well now they released a letter that is instructing all kh's to view this video during their local needs part.

I've only showed up for the first couple or so Zoom boast sessions.
The elders then tried to enforce my camera being on - but didn't push that really hard .
So, I just used that time for my own business. And I've missed last couple meetings even without Zooming in.
It's hell lot easier these days, actually. And BTW, I'm not that different from the eldubs/pioneers who similarly do next to nothing for the borg, in fact.

Last week in our congo, we had that funny Announcement about receiving 'apostate replies' while preaching online.
