No sorrow means the “New Scrolls” that are opened will explain.Perhaps the New System is ALSO the Rainbow Bridge, and God never mentioned it before, because dogs get in free.
Just a guess……
Also, the Bible promises all our hearts desires will be fulfilled...
Of course these desires can only be pure. I doubt someone would get away with desiring 70 virgins. But surely wanting to see our beloved pet is a pure desire.....?

@JW Insiderare you conducting a gullibility experiment?

Here I know I will garner Pudgy’s sincere sympathy—one dog lover to another—when I reveal my own friend took that route not three weeks ago:
Why do they live so short? 😥
My son and I have often wondered that because we believe Jehovah directly created the dog to be man's animal companion, because dogs are so....well....human like in their emotions, the way they relate to us. Losing a dog to me is like what an atheist must feel after losing a loved one (like "they live in our memory" kind of thing). Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of these people who put animals on an inappropriate pedestal, but it's definitely a mournful time for us when we feel we won't see this creature again.
In the new world there will be no sorrow, I wonder, will we feel differently about losing our pets?
I hope they get to live a lot longer, that's for sure...

I saw it as satirizing the logic and reasoning that went into many of the things we were taught, making up all kinds of things and adding and subtracting them to fit.…
Me too. But then I remembered JWI said he was trying to be good. Would he really create a whole post showing himself to be "bad" I wondered...Or is he just bored...
This is funny, here we are debating the intentions of the writer instead of the contents, lol.
But you must admit, the title of the post sounds a bit tongue in cheek....

I did a quick skim and kind of assumed that it was a joke only because I can’t imagine JWI doing a 180. Was it not? I may have to read it through to find out.
I hear you!
I am 50/50 about whether this is a joke or not....this is why I've got to read through it properly as well....

Wow! Well here's me fussing over whether the "slave" has all the scriptures interpreted correctly and all the while we had a prophet among us!
Of course Tom has to make a joke of all this lest he was struck down by lightning if he admitted that this is ingenious.
Seriously though, I will have to re-read this properly tomorrow!

Is that the 'teaching' of the JW Org ? That even children should be 'tested' from inside the congregation.
It is not the teaching of JW org. that anyone, child or adult, should be tested.

understand at times why some cannot see that it happens…perhaps because they cannot imagine that Jehovah would allow such things amongst his people…yet
Well, I disagree with these brothers. The story of Job tells us that we will be tested to extremes and scriptures in the new testament tell us we will be persecuted and mocked. Any opposite teaching is not the truth. If the world loves you, you are doing something wrong.
I think that Thinking was talking about problems and imperfection within the organization not from the outside.

I have a similar picture of my two darlings 😂 Thankfully they do not destroy anything in the house, they just drag in stuff through the doggie door from the yard (twigs, fallen branches, plant supports...etc.) and proceed to make an almighty mess of it indoors, and after they are done, happily snoozing amongst the carnage.

I'll leave you all with this then I'll shut up.
Unfortunately just because some call them selves JW doesn't mean they act like they are supposed to. They are JWs in name only.
I am sorry you had such a horrible childhood. My father in law, a baptized JW, was an alcoholic and beat his wife and children. Regularly. The elders might be deceived by appearances but Jehovah sees it all and he will met out justice.

Okay. So you are in the waiting area. And you know among the deboarding passengers fleeing disaster are your family. Do you shower all your hugs and gifts and kisses on the first person you see, or do you wait for your family?
Why are you being so dense about this?
He knows. He's just being intentionally antagonistic. He knows it's logical to let Witnesses stay with Witnesses. He doesn’t want to admit the bond those of like mind and faith have, because he doesn't have that anymore.

Not what I was thinking. If I were Russia, I would definitely not give a head's up to the US or Ukraine that one of the things Russia was going to look for was evidence that these biolabs were military-related. The US has always been careful, I'm sure, to keep military uses of bio-weapons hidden, but a surprise visit by Russian military forces could catch the paper-trail destroyers off-guard.
This is why you would absolutely bludgeon me in a game of chess

You may want to save whatever is in those links in some form of documentation. Even the Way back machine can get scrubbed clean rendering your links useless. Granted these are Archives, there is no doubt some people want that information to disappear.
The PDF files are downloadable, so easy to save.

Here the US embassy in Georgia says it funded the construction of the Lugar center project with $150 million, other websites claim it was $350 million. Which is it then???

China accused the U.S. military of operating “dangerous” biolabs in Ukraine, echoing a Russian conspiracy theory that Western officials warned could be part of an effort to retroactively justify President Vladimir Putin’s invasion.
“U.S. biolabs in Ukraine have indeed attracted much attention recently,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said Tuesday in response to a question from a local reporter, adding that “all dangerous pathogens in Ukraine must be stored in these labs and all research activities are led by the U.S. side.”
He called on “relevant sides to ensure the safety of these labs” and said “the U.S., as the party that knows the labs the best, should disclose specific information as soon as possible, including which viruses are stored and what research has been conducted.”
The comments mirror the diversion tactics China’s diplomats used last year when questioned about the origins of Covid-19. Back then they frequently pointed to Fort Detrick, a U.S. military facility in Maryland that the Soviet Union falsely claimed in the 1980s was the source of the virus causing Aids and that Zhao again referenced Tuesday.
Britain’s Defense Ministry said in a Tweet on Tuesday that it had noticed an up-tick in allegations by Russia that Ukraine is working on biological or nuclear weapons. “These narratives are long standing but are currently likely being amplified as part of a retrospective justification for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine,” it added.
Since 1991, a unit of the Department of Defense has cooperated with former satellites of the Soviet Union, including Ukraine, to secure and take apart weapons of mass destruction that have been left behind.
The Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction Program is intended to “support defense and military cooperation with the objective of preventing proliferation,” according to U.S. non-profit organization the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation.
China has walked a fine diplomatic line since Russia attacked Ukraine. It has in recent years been making the case that as a richer, more powerful nation it deserves a bigger say on the world stage. Yet it also wants the benefits of closer ties with Moscow, largely to offset what it sees as Washington’s undue influence.
Zhao repeated at the press briefing that China’s position on Ukraine remains “consistent and clear cut,” signaling that the Asian nation is still trying to avoid picking a side on the issue.
When asked whether China was ready to say that Russia had “invaded” its Eastern European neighbor, Zhao said: “I don’t think the question is of any point.”

You almost would think it would make more sense for Russia to raise this admission before invasion, not after. Get a few more people to see their point of view that way.
That's exactly what I was thinking.
Apparently according to one Twitter user: these labs are co-run by Fauci's EcoHealth Alliance and rumor is Russia's entire military operation right now is unofficially to either secure and/or destroy these labs and gather evidence.
Also from the UK Ministry of Defense Tweet: Since the end of February there has been a notable intensification of Russian accusations that Ukraine is developing nuclear or biological weapons. These narratives are long standing but are currently likely being amplified as part of a retrospective justification for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Some interesting reading here from the Russian side. (Google translate reads a little like Dmitar in places).

How a Christmas song would lead me to believe that our 1914 teaching must be right after all.
