this is from tass.
a criminal case has been opened in moscow over the resumed activities of a jehovah’s witnesses admin center.
although russia’s supreme court outlawed the extremist organization back in 2017, the center has been active since june 2019. apart from moscow, searches were carried out in more than 20 other regions throughout the country, izvestia writes.. work to ferret out the banned cells of jehovah’s witnesses has been going on for several years.
Cult researcher Alexander Korelov points out that the number of Jehovah’s Witnesses followers has significantly declined. There used to be about 150,000 adherents nationwide but many people have walked out on the sect and some have left the country.
If it`s happening in Russia, "the walking out of the sect" ,maybe the Governing Body of JW`s did us all a favour when they instructed their associates / volunteers / R&F , to join the internet ?
hello all interested persons,.
whilst driving to work this morning listening to the radio, my ears pricked when the presenter began talking about jws.
it was on a programme which airs between 8.00 and 8.30 entitled am, and broadcast on the abc national radio.
It can`t come soon enough for me and I`ll bet thousands like me.Hit em where it hurts in their hip pocket .$$$$$$
I believe it would have Cheeses , I normally listen to AM after the news but today I just didn`t turn it on.
And i`m in Victoria.
I hope you guys and gals in the USA had a great Thanksgiving from down under.
i thought i would post an encouraging experience i found today.
i've been seeing a lot of 70-80 year old jws waking up, and their children are posting their experience on reddit.
these are old elders, pioneers, circuit overseers who have given their everything and finally at the end of their life, are walking away.. maybe the key to waking up is that a person has to have a deep sense of right and wrong.
When I read this experience I had a tear in my eye , whoever said "you can`t teach an old dog new tricks" ?
And the line from this gentleman is simply the best .
The whole thing is now morphing into a new online trash internet religion with no real substance .
Never a truer word was said.
The fact that he never shunned his son was also telling ,he was just a slow learner .
But eventually he got there.
i had to read this paragraph twice in case i'd misread it the first time.
who is he trying to kid!?
mr gomez says, "there's very little rules, if any, most of our conduct is governed by principles, and there's a lot of room for us to make personal choices.
Jehovah`s Witness company men "speak out of both sides of their mouth" ,they wouldn`t know "Truth" if it was rammed up their arse , they would still speak out of both sides of their mouth.
australian senator anna rushton has said that all orgs who "don't take reasonable steps to join the redress scheme" will be stripped of their charitable status come feburary 2021.. https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/k1pur7/the_jehovahs_witnesses_will_be_stripped_of_their/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share.
Angela Sdrisis ,told ABC news reporter "it has been going on far too long" the lawyer involved in the case.
And ain`t that the truth .
I`m thinking that if the Borg signs up to the Redress Scheme ,they will be admitting there is a problem with child sex abuse in the organization and also admitting it`s not Apostate lies, as they have been telling the congregants for so long. ?
It could be a twofold effect on WT ,in that they wont get Govt. funds as a Charitable Institution and they would also have to pay taxes themselves.
And that`s going to hit where it hurts ? loss of income . YEAAAAAA
Bring it on.
whilst i have never quite understood whether petra and atlantis are one or multiple entities i recognise the value of their work and web of contacts.
i think it is fair to say that no-one has consistently contributed more solid gold intelligence to this site.
no one has reliably passed on more bomb shells and solid news as well as day to day minutiae.
Thank you JeffT for the link , I wondered what the hell was going on , what did I miss !

What I want to know is why does the date keep on changing ?
Wasn`t the deadline December the 31st? and wasn`t that after it had been changed once or twice before ?

Amen to Sliding Fast post.
Atlantis/Petra ,please reconsider , this has come as a shock to me.
unbelievable.
okay actually it's very believable.
check out the latest video on jwdotorg:.
In it the GB helper rails against many major apostate talking points, mentioning specifically the criticisms of how child abuse cases are handled, the financial cutbacks and downsizing, dogmatic statements of prophecy made in literature in the past, and more.
Isn`t that enough to start some serious questioning of what one was lead to believe ?
Maybe it could be a wake up call for some ? hopefully .
