I did it after many years out and I couldn`t give a stuff if they read a letter or not.
I veiwed it as my DF the cult.
All of my family are out with only one niece still in.It`s her loss not talking to any of her family.
Just my 2 cents worth.
sig other is half assed still in, one family member is in... its been years... wondering if i should just let it be or just call up hq and say i resign... i will be pissed if they announce shit at the kh, though i dont even remember the last one i went to... lol.
for me, its none of anyone elses business... thoughts?.
i just recently had my will set up and have decided to leave them some money.
i’ve left instructions to not tell them how much and they must attend the will reading when i die.
i’ve have left them the princely sum of 1 pence.
And even if they become aware of this "trend" they still won`t be able to resist going to the reading ,just in case it`s legit .

if jesus memorial meal is meant to follow on from the jewish passover celebration, would someone explain to me why the jehovah's witness community are holding their "lord's evening meal" on tuesday 4th april; when the jewish community are not holding their 2023 passover until the 5th april 2023?
doesn't this mean that the jehovahs have got their date wrong?.

Don`t they get everything wrong ?
we're you regular at the 3 meetings days watchtower hade?
i remember our was tuesday, thursdays and saturdays.
in reality it's crazy they hade so many meetings.
Yes ,and I`m ashamed to admit it as it shows how stupid and gullible I was and to bring my two boys up in this cult of a religion.
But thankfully we are all out now and getting on with our lives.
My memory is failing me somewhat now ,but I convinced my then GF who became my wife and remained a JW for between 30-40 years

Regardless of what qualifications he claims to have he can`t be too bright if he is a practicing JW as he claims.
we know that with our hands we touch what everybody else does: money, handles, buttons, etc.. we also know for sure, since the xix century, that our hands carry bacteria and germs causing serious illnesses because of that.. despite more than 25,000 jws dying because of the covid, showing they are not immune, they were proudly declaring how good they were in handling this pandemic.. now, jws have started to shake hundreds of hands per week at their meetings, like before, even if covid is not over yet demonstrating hygiene knowledge back to medieval times.. i am wondering: are they the only religion/community/group still doing this or others are doing the same?.

Is this a fact ? 25,000 dying because of Covid ? If so ,then they haven`t learnt much have they nor has their God apparently, ,and they still shake hands ?
as a jw, did you ever know of totally unchristian behavior ( boners) by some "fine" witnesses?
i know of more than my fair share and will reveal some.
an elder/pioneer kicked his elderly wife who had alzheimer's out.
In years gone by if I ever had a boner my wife was the first to know about it ., sadly those days are gone now.,i never get a boner
re-posting this for reference.. #1 protein functional redundancy comparing the sequences of amino acids in ubiquitous proteins confirms the relationship between all living things..
#2 dna functional redundancy comparison of the dna that codes for the amino acids of ubiquitous proteins predicts the tree of life with an astonishing degree of accuracy..

Thank you cofty bookmarked ,done.
during the massacre of many witnesses at a kingdom hall in germany the other night, where was jehovah's holy spirit ?
.
It should be a wake-up call to any JW ,however I bet it isn`t.
