Now that they can`t go D2D to distribute these mags to the general public,surely these numbers will have to be reduced dramatically .

Nitty Gritty,
To get you back in so that you can start putting money in the contribution box of course . its all about the money .
Commercial Printers / Authors etc. were all envious of the WTB&TS printing all of these books and magazines that were then sent out by unpaid volunteers to sell them to the public and bring in the money.
Millions of gullible Jehovah`s Witnesses around the world making the JW Organization filthy Rich.using religion to do so.
That alongside with their multi-million Dollar Real Estate Empire ,buying and selling property ,that was and is the topping on the cake giving them Billions of Dollars now.
I wonder where all of that money is going ? and don`t make me laugh and say it is all going back into the preaching work .
YEAH RIGHT ! PULL THE OTHER LEG.

So Satan has got one up on Jehovah eh ? He has outsmarted the big guy upstairs and effectively shut down the D2D work that has been a trademark for decades of Jehovah`s witnesses .Not to mention the cart work.
Satan 1 Jehovah 0 Strike 1 JAH
When you think about it he has also been instrumental in ,if not shutting down but certainly reducing the numbers to near Zero of Watchtower and Awake magazines in print version around the world.
Satan 2 Jehovah 0 Strike 2 JAH
Then again Satan has stopped them from physically associating themselves with each other at not only congregation meetings but also Circuit Assembly`s ,District Assembly`s ,and International Conventions .
Satan 3 Jehovah 0 Strike 3 JAH
3 strikes and your out Jehovah.

JW patient with covid-19 received blood transfusion
by adjusted knowledge ini had a patient admitted from a skilled nursing facility/rehab that is an active jw.
the patient had covid-19 as did most of the patients at that facility.
typically the local elders are all involved in these admissions but there is a strict no visitor policy which includes clergy.

I think nowadays their would be quite a few who would take blood if they can be assured nobody else could know about it .And taking advantage of the strict visitor policy they could get away with this .
Of course the RN who is a JW could break confidentiality and spill the beans on anyone they know who is a JW to the Elders in the area where the patient lives ,and they could do this anonymously of course.
And a patient would not know or be aware of a RN being an active JW now would they.

Do You Believe Joe Biden Sexually Assaulted A Woman In The 90’s?
by minimus inthere is an allegation floating around saying he assaulted one of his female staffers .
most mainstream media do not report on this claim.
they either don’t believe it or don’t want to believe it.. funny how if it were brett kavanaugh or donald trump, they would be all over it.

Isn`t there anyone in American politics from ,either both parties between the ages of 40-60 capable or competent { or wealthy enough } to run for Office of the American Presidency ?
Why do they have to pick old geezers who are candidates for Alzheimer's ,a Stroke , or Dementia ? within a couple of years ?

" We know people are dying waiting for fair compensation for the horrific abuse and injustice they have faced ...."
And that no doubt that is what the GB of the JW religion is hoping for that they all die off before they have to pay anything .

Mehlisue , In my awakening period which did take a long time ,I read a book written by an ex Jesuit priest whose name I just can`t remember ,though I know he was married and lived in the suburb of Ivanhoe Melbourne Victoria Australia .
I remember this bit of info because at one time I too lived there .
If I remember correctly the title of the book was , "The rise And Decline Of Christendom " It had a profound effect on me as I could relate to what he was going through in his crisis of faith even though he was Catholic and I was a Jehovah`s Witness.
It was a book I picked up at a Library and making contact with that library didn`t get me anywhere.I`m trying other avenues now to see if I have any luck.I would love to read it again now that I am fully out and free of religion .
Welcome to this forum , its a great site I hope you stick around.
Thanks for your post Melinda

All religions are man made with writings of men / women, that they base their Beliefs ,Traditions , and Doctrines on.
Presumably you are talking about Christianity and if so ,why do you need any organised Church to worship in.?
Why don`t you just stick to what is written in the Bible and follow your own path ?
Just remember the Bible was written by men and basically Jewish men who had their own agenda in mind.
Welcome Talkie , this is a good forum to discuss anything and everything.
