  1. That’s why I wrote this 🫣:- “Any advice to start doing these things needs to be carefully considered as you really need to speak to your doctor about your plan and review the taking of your new medication. Being on diabetic medication and going on a no/low carb diet and practicing intermittent fasting CAN BE DANGEROUS.”
  2. If I was diagnosed with diabetes type 2 I would reject the medication and go on a strict Keto diet or the Carnivore diet. I would also set up an intermittent fasting protocol and stick to it. The benefits of this are well founded. Any advice to start doing these things needs to be carefully considered as you really need to speak to your doctor about your plan and review the taking of your new medication. Being on diabetic medication and going on a no/low carb diet and practicing intermittent fasting CAN BE DANGEROUS. I would review many of Dr Jason Fungs videos again if this happened to me because he is an expert and has helped his patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
  3. Unfortunately this Scandal would have effected those brothers and sisters that accepted the clotting factor viii fraction derived from the contaminated pooled plasma.
  4. Here in the UK there is uproar about the cover up by the government in relation to the contaminated blood products used on patients "More than 30,000 people were infected with HIV and hepatitis C from 1970 to 1991 by contaminated products - about 3,000 have since died". "The infected blood inquiry has concluded that the scandal could and should have been largely avoided The inquiry's final report says that patients were knowingly exposed to "unacceptable risks" The five-year investigation also accuses doctors, the government and NHS of trying to cover-up what happened Sir Brian Langstaff, the report's author, says people "put their faith in doctors and in the government... and their trust was betrayed"..... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-69025640
  5. This is really hitting the news here in the UK after the enquiry here. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-69025640
  6. Hiya, I too have been involved in those discussions https://jwtalk.net/search/?&q=beards&author=Cool Cat&search_and_or=and However brother Lett mentioned that some of us may of held strong views for a long time even promoting our own opinion on the subject and saying how ridiculous it all was that elders had the view they had. Brother Lett:- If that was us we are encouraged to change our view. It is great that many people have patiently waited for this change without being critical of Elders and Elder bodies who found it hard to accept beards.
  7. Dear Bob, brother Lett explained that feeling like it was a long time coming and that it was a stupid social taboo is not how we should view this change or the wait we have had until now for it. Rather it is a well done to all those who have patiently waited for this change and for all those who were loyal and spoke of one mind and didn't verbalise their own view on this matter during that time. 🤗
  8. It happened to me too. I lost it on my android phone and tablet. Managed to delete the app and reload it on the android phone and some of the data has come back but not all. Still missing my groups information and contact details. Still nothing on the iPad like yours is showing. There is an error on the pc scheduler part as well in the app section. Hopefully it is just them fiddling with it for the update. 🙏🏼
  9. If you have asked for shepherding visits and not received one and only had 1 in 12 years then I would try to work with the circuit overseer when he next comes and explain this. He would be interested to know that there is a lack of shepherding going on. This knowledge could have a beneficial effect on the whole congregation. They simply may have lost their way and need some encouragement. 🤗
  10. While fully vaccinated status is required for Elders School, Pioneer School and School for Christian Evangelizers, being fully boosted was only mentioned as something we should consider or think carefully about. Looking at what counts as fully vaccinated status in the US https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/travelers/proof-of-vaccination.html You are considered fully vaccinated: 2 weeks (14 days) after your dose of an accepted single-dose vaccine 2 weeks (14 days) after your second dose of an accepted 2-dose series 2 weeks (14 days) after you received the full series of an accepted COVID-19 vaccine (not placebo) in a clinical trial 2 weeks (14 days) after you received 2 doses of any “mix-and-match” combination of accepted COVID-19 vaccines administered at least 17 days apart* If you don’t meet these requirements, you are NOT considered fully vaccinated. A booster dose is not needed to meet this requirement. Also fully vaccinated in the UK:- https://www.bma.org.uk/advice-and-support/covid-19/vaccines/covid-19-mandatory-vaccine-guidance At present, booster jabs are not required in order for a healthcare worker to be considered fully vaccinated. https://metro.co.uk/2022/02/11/what-is-classed-as-fully-vaccinated-current-uk-france-spain-rules-16091297/ In the UK, ‘fully vaccinated’ means you’ve had a complete course (usually two jabs) of an approved Covid vaccine. So, you’ll need to have your first and second dose of either the UK’s best-known vaccines: Pfizer/BioNTech Oxford/AstraZeneca Moderna ……. So being boosted is not a requirement at this time but was asked to be considered. It was also mentioned that brothers and sisters should seriously consider before these schools wearing a mask and protecting themselves so as to not jeopardise the school.
  11. 50 hours for pioneers 30 hours for auxiliary pioneers 15 hours for auxiliaries special months This is an answer to many peoples prayers all in one go. Jehovah knows exactly how to care for his people in times of hardship. Praise be to Jehovah 🥰
  12. Has anybody elses Branch Zoom Account  suddenly downgraded to Basic?

      That’s okay it’s all fixed now. 

  13. My favourite Whisky is Laphroiag Quartercask. I also liked Caol ila 12. I am a big fan of very Smokey whisky’s. Just wish I had enough money to buy some of the very Smokey Octomores. 🥃
  14. I think the question from the pew research which they got their information from was worded in such a way that it made it difficult for a Jehovah’s Witness to answer correctly. It was recorded by working out the % of adults who say abortion should be… Legal in all/most cases Illegal in all/most cases Don’t know I would of either not filled out that question at all or thought about Gods laws and put Illegal in all/most cases. However I don’t think with those computerised surveys you can miss out a question.
  15. I am hoping when Matthew 24:21 and 21 says “then there will be great tribulation such as has not occurred since the world’s beginning until now, no, nor will occur again. In fact, unless those days were cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen ones those days will be cut short… It will hopefully mean that large scale and worldwide Nuclear war won’t happen. But it will get pretty terrible and be a tribulation greater than World War 1 and 2 so who knows what might happen. 🫣 Thats why we need to stick close to Jehovah and his organisation and be prepared for anything. The nations will faint out of fear at the potential things that may happen. - Luke 21:26 However, we must not, instead we can lift up our heads for our deliverance will be near. At least we can be a lot more prepared for bad things to happen but the world in general will be in complete shock.
  16. It would only take one rocket. Russia has been boasting about their nuclear capabilities. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-28_Sarmat One missile can carry 10-14 nuclear warheads https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_independently_targetable_reentry_vehicle The payload is about 400 times that of the previous 2 bombs that were dropped on people. This is why those in power don’t like the mention of the potential use of nuclear weapons. It won’t be just one at a time like Hiroshima or Nagasaki and they would be much bigger.
  17. Are you looking for a desktop or a laptop. MacBook Air and iMacs are solid. Or you could go the normal pc route and try linux which would be fun learning how to use. iMac 2021 https://www.techradar.com/uk/reviews/imac-24-inch-2021 MacBook Air 2020 https://www.techradar.com/uk/reviews/apple-macbook-air-m12020 Although a new MacBook Air is coming out end of this year. Tweaked pc from awd-it no operating system
  18. The OSBBOT is what they use for assemblies. If you can get away with buying that one at nearly 2-3 times the price of the recommended one then congratulations.
  19. That's kind of what I meant. If the situation keeps on developing as it is with Russia he will end up having no helper on the world stage. Jehovah may then of judged the rulership of the north King as deserving of being ended and may use us to announce it. I am already writing in my letters the things in Daniel 11 that have so far clearly been fulfilled. As things become clearer the North king will not like being identified as being about to come to its end.
  20. It wouldn’t surprise me if the North king became just Russia and he ended up with no helper. - Dan 11:45 It also wouldn’t surprise me if we proclaimed this will happen in a special campaign and that is why he turns his attention to us. - Dan 11:44
  21. We have received a letter today which gives us the parts we need. Logitech C920 20meter USB repeater and a projector bracket is mainly what you need. Should be about £120
  22. Looks like the black horse and his rider is going to start galloping again. https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/watchtower-no3-2017-may/who-are-the-four-horsemen/ https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60653856 War in Ukraine: Crisis is unleashing 'hell on earth' for food prices https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60623941 Ukraine war 'catastrophic for global food'
