Were this a real scenario, I'd question their relationship. But even then, it'd be none of my business

Confirmation that religion is dying.
by Phizzy inthis is from a site called "atheist republic" :.
" the phenomenon of "nones" — individuals who claim no religious affiliation — is rapidly reshaping america's religious landscape.
recent surveys by the associated press-norc center for public affairs research indicate that 30% of u.s. adults identify as nonreligious.

On the other hand, I've known a couple of people yearning for 'Christian values' in a reaction against the so called 'woke' agenda. Now, whether this means they'll be getting 'religion' or not, only they know. It did interest me though.
Christian values.....might mean different things to different peeps.

Psalm 35:6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.
I don't know about encouraging but this one made me laugh out loud when I read it

Noah + new understanding
by dothemath inso they mentioned noah couldn’t have preached to all the population back before the flood.
do you think they might start using common sense regarding not being able to get every animal type on the ark from the whole world?.
maybe the poor sloth from south america didn’t have to crawl all the way?

Have they considered that the flood story might just be a metaphor or parable rather than literal?
Or more likely the Ark was actually a TARDIS,

At it's most extreme, the Jobots will see it as a 'test'. If not the other extreme could be 'a loving arrangement(tm)'
I imagine most Jobots will carry on 'business as usual'.
I can't imagine it 'stumbling(tm)' many because they're all too 'idiocracy' for it.

If you were to design a new religion?
by ExBethelitenowPIMA inwhat the jw sect has become and is slowly becoming is far more near what i thought could be a good religion based on the bible.. no more counting hours and no more blindly following direction now they admit they are not inspired.. i would like to design a new sect inside the jws.
it has to be kept secret because the elders would not like it.. this new sect involves giving a tick every month or so saying you are still kindof active talking about the bible.. going to meetings occasionally and attending on zoom sometimes.
very rarely go to ministry groups but don’t ever do first call, just say you are doing street work and have a nice walk somewhere maybe the shops or the park.

If you were to design a new religion?
I wouldn't.
Religion has caused enough problems in the world. If you want to take a Biblical view, it was 'religion' that gave Jesus such a bad time and then killed him.
I wouldn't stay in a cult like the Jobots, undercover, overcover or Wombling free.

I’m not sure what this means!
by NeedsProof inyesterday i was visited by 2 witnesses, and we had a long chat about lots of things!
one of them named claire took the lead and i instantly felt some sort of connection to her, after we had spoken and they had left i started to have this overwhelming feeling to research her and what she had spoken about but i couldn’t find her anywhere on any website or social media, so i left it and thought nothing more of it all day….
however the strange thing is i had a dream that night and claire was in it, many things happened in this dream that i was told i was only allowed to speak about with claire, i can speak of the dream to others but the details only me and claire can know!

It means you had a dream. I don't believe it goes beyond just that.
