It’s hard to know what’s true or false these days with AI and deepfakes. But I know what you mean about the flood of info. And all the names being dropped have made me wonder if it will make the world angry enough to cause a major shake up in the power of the governments. It’s like the twilight zone right now. The weirdest stuff being talked about. I saw one story talked about today so bizarre I had to fact check it looking for news articles. Unfortunately it was true. People are weird, bizarre and gross. The system has to end soon. The rot of all three parts of satan’s system is being exposed-religion, governments and big business.

I agree. I think for many years, since WWII, the US has sat on their high horse of being the force of good in the world. Even other nations have commented that they look to the US as an example of freedom, democracy, successful economy, etc. Even with the history of how they took over this continent and enslaved people, the world saw the US as a beacon of light in regards to government. Now the world is seeing more truth of the real goings on. Hypocrisy, bullying, fragility of the dominant world power in all aspects. It shows those who are not blinded that no matter how great one type of government may seem for a time, it doesn’t last. Mankind’s greed and selfishness is always exposed with time. More cracks in the feet and toes of daniels statue. Gods Kingdom is the only hope.

In the typical fashion of invasion or takeovers, it’s not really the reason they say. If Maduro was giving them oil, they wouldn’t be prosecuting him for crimes. Always about money and power. The crookedness of governments is being revealed more every day.

I went to a place in Orlando a good number of years ago. We had googled for Turkish food. When we entered we were surprised it was full of hookah tables but since we were there for dining, they put us in a separate area. So really it depends on the establishment.

That announcement applied to branch committee members, not the governing body.

What do you mean by groups of 4? We usually have groups of 4-6 depending on the vehicle. But only 2 go to the door.

Or the AI robots will have taken over. cue space odyssey movie….

It would be up to the ones who work in the industry to decide. Not for us to judge what they decide. Many of the friends have jobs as estheticians, massage therapists etc. How they choose their clientele and services would be up to them. Each person has different weaknesses so what would not work for one person could be fine for another.

Same. It used to drive me nuts that it took 30 minutes for everyone to leave the hall, another 15 to get to the territory and then after an hour, we go on break. However, now I view Saturday ministry as a relaxed way to get to be with the friends and do some doors and rvs together. Not as some mad rush to do as many houses as possible. That change of mental disposition makes me happier and makes Saturday service more enjoyable.

Why are you worried about some very rare hypothetical situation? Unless you are needing to get waxed yourself, I don’t understand why you are concerned about this.

The political mud slinging has descended into the other kind of ‘mud’. Really looking at the state of leaders around the world, very few seem to have any decency left. Or care for the common people. They are all more interested in power, money and their own legacy. The fact that this is so plain to see now shows how close we are to Jehovah acting.

All on the left side of the pacific. Does that usually mean the other side gets it soon? I’ve seen a couple videos pop up on YouTube about something coming in California. Haven’t watched the videos because I don’t know enough whose info is really valid or just fear mongers.

Everything is “unprecedented “ these days. How long before the word loses its meaning and nothing is unprecedented? I’ve actually come to loath the word. My face goes all scrunchy every time I hear it. 😵‍💫🥴😒

I don’t have the info but I remember an announcement as well. Still see friends using it though. I don’t know that it’s “wrong”. I think the intent behind the announcement is to avoid people taking advantage of others, pressure to give and to maintain dignity in situations. Technically speaking, I believe the order for helping is: relatives, group, congregation, available programs, etc. However, I can see how it’s helpful in certain situations too. I’ve even seen friends put the call out for anyone willing to donate an organ.

My grandparents were married and anointed. They had a 20 year age gap. Last one died in the 90’s.
