hello all, hope everyone is doing good!!!!.
so my wife tells me yesterday....on saturday we having a emergency disaster class on saturday.
kinda like most corporation have and it's through zoom.
What we are going through now is a world wide disaster of sorts and all that JW's have to offer is information that they've cut and pasted from government guidelines and empty soothing words but nothing in terms of tangible help.
So true, so very bloody true.Never was a truer word said.To coin a phrase.
i don't know if anyone remembers me on here but i'm here to do an update again.. well, i'm 15 going on 16 soon i still remember watching my first video on youtube and learning that all the jw teachings are false and everything that follows.
crazy times, i have chosen to just focus on school and just trying to be a kid well a teen now but you get the point.
i'm not really mad about all the jw stuff i've come to accept that i couldn't have done anything to prevent it i was born into a family that was already into the religion.
Good for you sinboi ,good to hear your dad DA`d and that your mom is half-way there also.Enjoy the rest of your life out of the Borg.
And I thought I was going to see some busty beauty with curves you could only dream of ...Oh well
this was sent to me by a cooky uber-dub.
apparently it's making the rounds locally...it's typical lighthearted jw satire (that they think is great!!
smh :-/ ) .
The people of Sodom and Gomorrah resurrected , yes, no, yes ,no, yes, no...........
so after much research, i'm convinced that my dad and both my older brothers have aspergers.
they can come across as jerks at times especially when their guard is down.
however, they can hide it extremely well when they want to, with pointed effort.
It never ceases to amaze me how JW`s turn to Christendoms various charities and services when needed .
The only " TRUE " religion has no time for them anymore .
how many kingdom halls are there worldwide?
even better how many in the years 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019.. i'm asking this to get a picture of the total real estate owning of the jw and how this become to the money-cow in these days..
I tend to agree with the criticisms of Kim & Mikey ,and I do find its a shame because they do come up with valid points to consider against the WTB&TS .
Maybe its a case of dont shoot the messenger ,just analyze the message for what its worth.
the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (iicsa) is holding a public hearing in the child protection in religious organisations and settings investigation for the next two weeks.
the provisional timetable for the first week was released today: https://www.iicsa.org.uk/key-documents/17795/view/2020-03-12-cpiros-public-hearing-week-one-timetable.pdf .
five witnesses will testify on the jw issue next thursday, 19 march:.
While I really don`t like the delays ,however it is out of our control and it will eventually happen . Jw`s who think Jehovah is stepping in with these delays will eventually have to face the music. It`s not going away.
is it still going to take place?
maybe we could all participate via zoom.
2 can play at this game.
Speaking of flipper ,has it been a month since he last posted on here ? I hope he`s OK ? Is it just me ,or is that unusual for him ?
BB that could be a good idea that I might even be interested in.
i posted what follows elsewhere but thought it might be of interest here as well.
my forst posting here so i apologize in advance if this is not in the correct place.. a tribute to ray franz (on what would have been his 98th birthday) and to ed dunlap, his collaborator.
last week would have marked the 98th birthday of a man for whom most of us here have high regard.

cardinal george pell the australian catholic who was the 3rd most senior person in the vatican was acquitted by the high court of australia of all sex charges against him this morning.. after serving about 400 days behind bars he is now free to walk out of jail, to the shock of many.. this should make news headlines all around the world judging by past experience..
Thank you Witchettygrub I have just watched it .
