"That's not what the decision says at all! Recant your fabrication or prepare to be a criminal defendant under the Croatian Insult statute. I suggest you get a good lawyer, because I will never let this go until my dying breath." - Lloyd, probably.
Oh noooooos. I've been added to the suit.

Just in! Opinion of the court:
"Most of the time I'm proud of my work as a judge. I work tirelessly each day to deliver just and legally rulings. This case, although straightforward, took the court an extended amount of time to rule upon. All documents had to be reviewed and all evidence considered. And herein caused the delay, as I found it difficult to get through more than two paragraphs at a time without vomiting uncontrollably. I think it's fair to say that I had more control over my fits of projectile heaving than Mr. Evans had over his penis."
Ouch.

Did the court render a decision?
"It is the opinion of this court that if Mr. Evan's penis mastery was supposed to be a garden, it would, in fact, be a desert. And since absolute truth is a defense against defamation claims, and it seems absolutely true that Mr Evan's wants to bork every professional sex worker, "definitely over 20", in Thailand- case dismissed.

my grandfather who has been dead for 37 years would not recognise the borganisation today.
he would turn in his grave if he knew the end didn’t come by 2023.. back in the 1970s he really believed in the 75 thing.
he was so disappointed and almost blamed everyone else why the end didn’t come.
The WT won't go out with a bang. It will go out with a whimper, slowly declining and shrinking. Somewhere along the way there will be a "come to Jesus" moment (pun intended), and the entire 1914/607/adventist root will be discarded. At that point the WT will be a bland Christian sect, no different than your local Baptist church, with a somewhat (but not much) larger membership, scattered about. Heck, probably people will me members of JWs and the local church.
It will remain small, only gaining members among the truly religious.
Probably won't happen in my lifetime. Maybe my kids.
according to a new harris poll shared exclusively with fast company, most americans would prefer to live in a simpler era before everyone was obsessed with screens and social media, and this sentiment is especially strong among older millennials and gen xers.. asked whether they would like to return to a time before humanity was “plugged in”—meaning before people had wide access to the internet and smartphones—77% of americans age 35-54 said they would, the highest of any group.. .
what would you consider your ideal level of the internet?
as a gen x'er, i would not want to go back to the per-internet world, but i would like to go back in some specific technologies.
I am GenX. I would not roll back the internet. People look at their phones because they choose to look. Some are addicted, yes. It's their responsibility to recognize the issue and do something about it.
For example, I'm a software dev. I'm involved with the internet all day long. But I purposefully do not have an account for Twitter, Instagram, Faceplant, Truth, Mastodon, etc. I made a conscious decision not to engage there.
In other words, each individual GenX that prefers a world without screens has the ability to make that happen for their own life, and should do so.

Intellectual masturbation.
Are your sure it's not just plain, old masterbation? He does have that problem - as if he has mastery over his penis.

It's because you are a fascist, Simon -- you right-wing biggoted pig. All you can do is spew your right-wing QAnon conspiracy theories.
