  Overweight Jehovah’s Witnesses

  what was your kingdom hall like when it came to overweight witnesses?

  i remember counseling some people on their drinking habits.

  a few snickered that if we were going to counsel them because they have had way too many at a wedding reception, what about very overweight witnesses that have a lifestyle of overindulgence?

  Confidential Letter from the Watchtower to all full time servants.

  by pistolpete in

  2. medical

  this is a confidential letter for all full time servants like cos, regular pioneers, bethel and branch workers so please don't tell anyone about this.. reminder 20,000 jws have died of covid and 99% of those who died or were hospitalized in the united states branch territory were not vaccinated, so whose fault is that???.

  my question, how did they get the information that all these 20,000 jws were not vaccinated?.

  hint; if you want to continue to share in spiritual privileges--------------------get vaccinated.

  Lloyd Evans keeps doing parts on how the JWs are guilty of follwing the bible.

  i have been watching evans videos for a while.

  he keeps attacking the cult for following the bible.

  women are to be subservient to men.

  "I wish he would do 10 minute videos, to the point."-- Lloyd please take note.

  I began to watch his report on the recent wt video and found myself saying.."get to the point!", and so i didnt finish watching it and the referring to others who had a laugh about this or that; killed it for me.

  His videos follow the wt style of using 100 words where 20 would do.

  Just my take.

  Have a heart condition and the last 'flu' type shot I had put me on the floor.

  I have a similar regime to Stonewall, above. I also take one gram of Vit C a day and other complementary supplements.

  ---------------------
  

  1. The breakout in NSW-Australia has been caused (IMHO) because the warnings have not been given in the languages of the main groups concerned.
  2. Packing people into hi-rise bug breeders always was asking for trouble.
     

  I am sure a far better situation would be there if the State Premiers nightly rant was printed across the screen in those languages as she spoke.

  The SBS television network have translators of every hue. Why are they not being used?

  Yes I have written to the respective people, no answers.

  and i am very glad I live on the opposite side of the country.

  On the current migrant crisis

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. current

  thousands of migrants have come to england this year, already beating last year's total.. some may have fled syria and other war-torn countries; others are economic migrants.. let me try to get my head around this phenomenon: migrants are relatively safe in france and other countries.

  they then leave the relative safety of continental europe and risk their lives and that of their children by crossing the english channel in rubber dinghies.

  there's just no fixing stupid, is there .

  Did You Experience People Always Seeming To Get Offended?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there always seems to be someone offended by something.

  in today’s world if you don’t see eye to eye with someone they claim to be offended.

  if you don’t support a cause that someone deems important, they get offended.

  My brother was an elder for many years. He told me once that the phone rings constantly from jw who are offended by something.

  We had an overseer who gave us this advice in his last talk, "to be aware of those with a hyperactive conscience.".

  At that I had the thought that he had been cornered by one elders wife who knew all about all.

  ---------------------

  and in the media there is this so called political correctness in all its various forms.

  Don’t Trust the Courts! Splane’s Latest Anti-Apostate Talk

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  david splane’s talk “put up a hard fight for the faith” was that last talk presented on the saturday of the annual convention.

  this talk was to largely address apostates and restated ideas and arguments often presented before.

  however, this year, watchtower is spending more time in disqualifying negative findings originating from secular courts and here is the segment of interest here: .

  So, "settling out of court does not mean they are guilty".. well he would know as the wt has used this facility and then whacks a "gag" clause on the payout.

  after listening to the zoom meetings the past two weeks, i started to wonder, what is the real purpose for such short comments.

  policy for 5 or more years now.

  supposedly, it is so more can comment.

  30 seconds? This should apply to those long-winded includes every thing prayers at the end of meetings and conventions.

  There was a time when I began using my own experiences when answers had to be the print in front of you. Later the wt said to use own experiences and later still they went back to quoting the 'party-line' only.

  some folks never answer up at any time of course.
