Doomsday has happened several time on Earth. Extinction level events have happened several times. If humans don't start colonizing other planets, even the moon, we will eventually be wiped out.

Is doomsday coming as the Bible predicts or will nothing happen eventually?
by Fisherman inthe bible predicts that at some point, the god of the bible will take action.
this is very convincing when reading bible prophecy and history to back up prophecy as represented in the bible.
—exactly when god acts is another subject..

Jehovah's Witnesses - Where is Your Money Going?
by Sea Breeze inafter discouraging and in many instances prohibiting jw's from getting an education, like in computer graphics, film-making and design, the wt is employing these kinds of professionals and throwing vast sums of money at their new film-making adventures doubtless from all the properties they confiscated, sold that the local members paid for.
kim and mikey talk about this primarily starting at 13:15https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqafxmsjirk&ab_channel=kimmikey .

I think the Watchtower needs a giant sign the reads "W-A-T-C-H-T-O-W-E-R" in the hills behind the studio. Kind of like this one.

“The United Socialist States of America?”
by Fisherman inwhen i was growing up, some people were on welfare but the vast majority were working people that paid their own rent, doctor’s bills, medicine, food, etc.
—and saved money.
so, a working person did not need financial help from the government if they didn’t have vices.

In addition it seems the government is doing this in an attempt to prop up our consumer based society which is an unsustainable model. It is an exercise in keeping the zombie walking. That is to say, the consumer based societies of the world are like an animated, rotting corpse.
I think the elite are alright with this because if the bottom falls out our fiat currency will be totally worthless. Then everyone one will be equally destitute.

he for real, had to give an answer why.
this is pharasees total rubbish.

Rutherford hated beards. He said "No beards." Since Watchtower math is "obedience = everlasting life" they did not question. Any attempt to answer the question outside of this is just an ignorant Witness trying to sound pious.

The position of Christ in the Godhead
by JW Answers inwhat is your views on christ?.
do you hold to the view that christ and the father are the same person?
do you hold to the view that jesus is a lesser god than the father?.

Is the governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses REALLY the "faithful and discreet slave" of Matt. 24:45-47?
by Roger Kirkpatrick inthesis: when someone who is given a responsibility mistakes that responsibility for authority, bullying is very likely to occur.. jesus spoke an illustration recorded at matthew 24: 45-51 which well illustrates this thesis.. jesus asked, “who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over all his domestics, to give them their food at the proper time?
happy is that slave if his master on arriving finds him doing so.
truly i say to you, he will appoint him over all his belongings.

What I could never understand about the wording of that parable is that the faithful and wicked slave are one in the same. - Nowwhat?
Yes! This! Nowwhat for the win!
First, it is a parable. Second, in this parable there isn't a separate evil slave from the faithful slave. Third, there is no mention or even insinuation in this parable that there is a class of people who comprise said slave.

PunkofNice:
I know I do. It was worse in the past. I do take solace in the fact that more Witnesses are quitting. I had Witness friends in high school who are now our age. Their kids all stopped being Witnesses right out of high school.
I have a close friend who got our long before I did. He is uber resentful. He wants to file lawsuit against the Watchtower for all his time that was spent in the door-to-door ministry as a child.
I think it is natural. It is more of a matter of how much it is interfering with your ability to enjoy life now. Some time it does require some sort of resolution.
I haven't explained anything to my own father. I just made it clear in recent history that I will never be one of Jehovah's Witnesses again.

Jehovah was with the Watchtower, and they took possession of the mountainous region, but they could not drive out the inhabitants of the plain, because they had war chariots with iron COVID-19. - Judges 1:19 NWT
