there was a comment that in australia ( i think) the experiment ended with no apparent outcome.
anyone know how this is working any where?
there was also a mention of a hall being sold.
As of last week the Australian branch issued a note to co's stating that there were no plans to resume in person meetings till April.
This would be reviewed on a monthly basis thereafter. And let me tell you, the rank and file are dreading the return of the in person circus.
The memorial which is sometime in April would still be on zoom.
As I mentioned on another thread, all pilot meetings in West Australia have ceased and are back on zoom. Other states are all on zoom I'm led to believe.

should we refer watchtower as to a online religion now?
i mean we could discuss if they ever return to kingdom hall's in the future.
if most of them haven't been sold.
Well,
In West Australia all the 'in person pilot' meetings have now ceased.
They have all gone back to zoom and word has it, they are loving it.

in a recent post ffghost made a comment about how they're always inserting modern concepts into biblical narratives to make it relatable to jw's organization.
here are some that come to mind:.
- the capitalized term "governing body" when referring to the older men in jerusalem (really just another group of christians that paul outspokenly disagreed with and didn't look to for approval).
found this among my parents' keepsakes.

apr 20, 2020. novak djokovic sparks a backlash after publicly opposing the covid-19 vaccine.
he says: “personally, i am opposed to vaccination, and i wouldn’t want to be forced by someone to take a vaccine in order to be able to travel.”.
asked by sky news australia anchor danica de giorgio why djokovic was granted the visa in the first place, the home affairs minister said: “they’re entirely separate processes”.. “to gain entry to australia you need both – you actually need the visa, which is determined quite separately, and then you have to meet the entry requirements,” she said.. “i know that people are putting the two issues together, but the visa application process and the granting of a visa is very separate to the additional entry requirements that every traveller needs to meet to be able to enter australia.”.
Any how.
The US CDC reckons Australia is a level four risk even if you are vaccinated..
can't get the link to work. Here is a paste of the edict.
Level 4: Very High
Level 3: High
Level 2: Moderate
Level 1: Low
Level unknown

See all COVID-19 travel notices.
Do not travel internationally until you are fully vaccinated. Getting vaccinated is still the best way to protect yourself from severe disease, slow the spread of COVID-19, and reduce the number of new variants. CDC encourages you get a COVID-19 vaccine booster dose if you are eligible. People who are not fully vaccinated should follow additional recommendations before, during, and after travel.

Mate. I'm five years behind you but am fully aware of all the notable events you documented.

Happy birthday and may you enjoy as many more as we all hope to.
