  1. Well you should know the majority of Protestant churches are very pro lgbt, especially in wealthy/developed countries. Catholic Church has been moving in that direction but much more slowly. The other large branch of Christendom is orthodox.
  2. They have now posted a second link to the socials, without posting it to the “what’s new” section. It’s also not in the JW.org RSS feed. It seems pretty clear this is intentional. But why tell us we don’t need to subscribe to the socials in order to keep up to date with everything new on our website, when clearly it’s necessary? This articles can’t easily be found without regularly checking the Global Communications / Pressroom page.
  3. If you click the button here, it will try and show you how you are related to Charles Russell: https://www.geni.com/people/Pastor-Charles-Taze-Russell/6000000014487889313 you may have to click and wait, and then also choose the in-laws option and search again
  4. The latest social post seems to link to an article on JW.org that is not even listed in the What’s New section of our website 😳 (and therefore not in the RSS feed!) I thought they specifically told us to keep using jw.org — but now JW.org is falling behind the social posts? here’s the article in question, for those who don’t have ig/tt: https://www.jw.org/en/global-communications/country/bulgaria/European-Court-of-Human-Rights-Unanimously-Affirms-Freedom-to-Peacefully-Share-Faith/
  5. There’s an unofficial app for android tvs. I Forget what it’s called. Not sure if Samsung supports Android tv apps anyway tbh edit: found it again https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.dok.mjd.mpfjwb
  6. Is it going to fix all these bugs on iPadOS 26/27: https://jwtalk.net/topic/63127-jw-library-bug-ipados-26-ipad-mini/
  7. Here’s another screenshot showing how the new top buttons stay visible when using “full screen” option in JWL:
  8. iPadOS27 adds even more bugs to JW Library: this screenshot really does not do it justice. When resizing the window, the buttons move from the usual bottom to the very top (as you can see). The bug regarding having the iPad in “upside down” orientation intersects with this new difference in UI placement so now it’s almost impossible to “reset” the buttons back to normal spacing (even when the window is small enough to display them at bottom). The media player and optional “full screen” setting in JWL add even more display bugs that cut across the other issues…
  9. I’ve been using socialblade.com to track both of the official accounts. It shows how many followers are added each day, and lots of other statistics.
  10. We already have that (or tried that). it’s called JW Broadcasting for Roku/Fire/Apple TV you just press the shuffle button and it literally streams nonstop… do people forget we have this?? It’s been around since 2014
  11. Oh, I thought you meant we preach door to door there. Do we do organized/formal witnessing there?
  12. “Healthy people do not need a physician, but those who are ill do.” — Matthew 9:12 You didn’t mention your son’s diagnosis, which makes it impossible for anyone here to give relatable advice, but I strongly encourage you to watch this video and see how a sister with mental health issues was able to apply the above verse in her life: https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/VODIntExpEndurance/pub-mwbv_202309_1_VIDEO Here’s a sample from the transcript:
  13. different authorities seem to be giving slightly different numbers
  14. What is your son’s view of homosexuality, cross dressing, and other similar moral issues? I would just directly ask him. But make the question open, don’t try to direct him to the answer you hope he chooses, otherwise he might not open up about how he really feels.
