Nicholas King at a gay bar

by neat blue dog in

How or why did he ever become a Jehovah`s Witness in the first place ? Looking at Kings -lifelong-Songbook-Journey.?

I just don`t get it.

The day the music died.

by Fisherman in

is there any new music or singers whatsoever nowadays or just junk?

and how about movies, besides documentaries is there anything at all, any movie at all, any new actor at all that that has any real worth to watch and enjoy or is it all a boring waste of time.

Free to air TV drives me nuts ,I try not to watch much of that except for doco`s or current affairs and the news.I like some foreign movies / TV series on SBS or Netflix Stan and so forth.

Music ? To me the forties ,fifties and sixties were the best years to listen to .

Whatever happened to the big bands of yesteryear ? The likes of Glenn Miller , Tommy Dorsey ,Benny Goodman etc,etc.

OK I`m showing my age now.

In person attendance

by road to nowhere in

we got the inevitable letter today.. meet, associate and "encourage" in person unless sick or infirm.

also dress up for zoom if you must use it.

locally over half are on zoom, 3/4 no picture.

smiddy3

Any chance that they will do away with Zoom meetings in the hope that they will force people to go back to meetings in person ?

Or otherwise make restrictions and set guidelines as to who only can attend zoom ?

Family division

by joao in

the worst part of my experience of getting rid of the shackles of wt is not the shunning.

i can live with that.

if people don't want to talk to me, there are many more who do!

I`m sorry you are going through that joao ,I hope you are coping as well as can be expected.

Take care,

but yeah that’s it as far as that goes, oh and i suppose i should mention my pronouns are he/they.

that should do it for now, thanks for reading if you made it this far n have a good day/night :3!

Welcome deeno,to wake up to the struth about the struth at a young age is a blessing for you ,it took me 32 years. Just don`t divulge too much info about yourself here as trolls come here to see who they can "expose" and get brownie points in their cong,I don`t know if that`s true or not but hey you can never be too careful.

And forget about this pronoun / woke BS and just be yourself ,you don`t have to follow any of these fads as they come along, otherwise you might as well have stayed with the JW BS .

Take care ,friend.

Do you believe that this life is all there is

by Fisherman in

the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.

what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.

smiddy3

Their must be millions of different life forms on this planet alone from the most simplest to the most complex ,so I see no reason not to believe life in one form or another doesnt exist somewhere in the Cosmos.

Whether we exist in some form or another after passing our earthly life is another matter and we will just have to wait and see.

my wife had a hip replacement on june the 17th and while the op itself was apparently succesful ,she has had a reaction to the anesthetic ?

and has suffered delirium and is still in hospital with no apparent improvement.. its been very distressing for me to say the least.

sorry if i sound a bit morbid but i just had to share,.

Ray,

Feel free to share and thank you.

According to Jehovah's Witnesses, who will be saved?

by Vanderhoven7 in

i know who won't be saved according to witnesses and that includes just about everyone alive at armageddon who is not a jehovah’s witness.

.

others who are permanently lost include adam and eve, those who died in the flood, people of sodom and gomorrah and apostates to their one true religion..

smiddy3

There are places on the Earth where the neither the Bible or Christianity has ever been heard of.

And more specifically Jehovah`s Witnesses

Movie Review YOU CAN LIVE FOREVER (Jehovah's Witness film)

by Terry in

jw
friends

movie reviewer chris stuckman himself is an ex-jw and his review is here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1t5otvlcnzq.

smiddy3

The OP made me think its produced by the JW`s themselves but that`s not the case is it .

And it`s not done my a mainstream film studio is it . That is it wont be shown in movie theatres will it ?

Is it only available online YouTube? Or how else is it available ?

My point is it will still probably only be seen by ex JW`s and very few active JW`s and not a wider viewer audience of the public , which will be a shame if its as good as claimed .

Hopefully I will be able to watch it tomorrow.
