perhaps i missed the comments, but i did not see a lot of comments from, or about, the memorial.
it happened last night, right?.
in years past the jwn board was hot with comments.

In years past the JWN board was hot with comments. This time, not a lot. Does this mean that the event is no longer significant?
i salute you.
many of you, like me, are probably under enormous emotional pressure, whether from a lingering false sense of guilt from your indoctrination, whether from "invitations," and assumptions that you'll naturally be coming, or whether from outright emotional blackmail, even begging and pleading.
i am thinking of you whoever you are, all of you, even though i don't know you in person.
I am not attending tonight. It has been over 10 years since I quit attending. But I don't consider my actions "taking a stand." I have simply moved on. I doubt any knows or cares that I am not attending.
The Governing Body wishes you...
wt has made a number of references to this alleged quote by j. paul getty:.
“money doesn’t necessarily have any connection with happiness.
nothing in my wt life brought more stress and anxiety than not having enough money.. this quote makes far more sense:.
As my father used to say "what good is happiness, it can't buy money."
mrs phizzy and myself will be eating out, sure in the knowledge we will not have jw's using the same restaurant.. i may have a cigar along with my brandy at the meal's end to celebrate my (our) freedom..
I teach an auditing class that night.
like the question asks: if you could relive any one day of your life, any age, any place and remember everything about it afterwards, would you be willing to live one year shorter at the end of your life?
one day for one year?.
i realize that someone well on in years would think twice about it, but, what about you younger ones?
If I was able to live this day over again, would I know what I know now? And if I was able to make a change, will it affect the trajectory of my life? If the answer to these questions is yes, the I agree to your proposition.
Where do I sign up?
I don't think I ever felt "love." They tolerated me but did not love me.
Which is just fine, I am not very loveable. On the flip side, I did not show a lot of love to my fellow r&f at the kingdom hall. I hope I was nice to everyone, but I never got the whole "love" thing.
an innocent picture of a city in my country, spain.
the pic says everything.
many jw are really disgusted about everything, even their new preaching cart.
What a freakin' waste of time.
suposedly babylon the great lost her power and influence over the people and government rulers back in 1919. flash forward to today the russian orthodox church is behind the banning of witnesses in russia.
yet another failed prophecy!
have these guys gotten anything right?!
It is funny that we no longer hear about the fall of Babylon the Great occurring in 1919. Does the Wt still believe this? Or is this old light?
i've seen discussions here about how jehovah's witnesses seem to be prone to believing conspiracy theories... https://digest.bps.org.uk/2017/04/05/why-more-highly-educated-people-are-less-into-conspiracy-theories/.
this last paragraph seems particularly relevant:.
importantly, van prooijen said his findings help make sense of why education can contribute to “a less paranoid society” even when conspiracy theories are not explicitly challenged.
Good thread. Thus, we know why the Watchtower does not want the R&F to get an education.
There is no bigger conspiracy theory than the God-Satan battle for world sovereignty.
