  marriage"equality" survey, Australia.

  by zeb in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the australian govt has set out a survey to see if people are in favour of changing the marriage act to include same sex couples.. hm here have received their papers?

  the survey promises to be anonymous but has a substantial bar code at the bottom... anonymous yeah right.. the marriage act once said "two people" then a previous prime minister changed it to say "man and woman" all that is needed to amend this situation as required by the gay community is change it back again to "two people" there, done and dusted.. and millions of dollars need not be wasted on this survey which is not compulsory as is voting in australia.

  can anyone here who still goes to kh tell us if this has had a ruling from the platform?.

  It felt genuinely great to have a say...one that was not prescribed for me by the society.

  An honest question for those who were "born-in"

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  just wanted to ask a question of those who were born in as i was.. how did you feel to have been "privileged to have been born into the only true faith - the truth"?.

  did this make you feel confident, or proud - or perhaps arrogant?.

  how did you reconcile the fact that 99% of the earth's population was not born "into the truth"?.

  I have to add to this.

  I could not reconcile how as Witnesses, we would be so sad when a natural disaster struck killing multitudes of people.

  In my mind, I thought, "its sad, BUT if Armageddon came tomorrow, they would all be killed by Jehovah anyway!... and we would not be able to be sad about that! So this way they get a resurrection - right??"

  Cue head explosion....

  This sort of stuff really does my logical head in!
  HOW can they honestly say things like "supplicate Jehovah for his spirit" and the like, when most would have been doing that as the disaster struck!

  Jehovah gets a free pass in all these things!

  If something appears to go well for a believer, then that is "evidence of God's blessing". If it doesn't, then that is "evidence that it wasn't according to God's will"

  Either way, God gets to be the winner!

  From past experience, the username and password varies from Congregation to congregation, and from circuit to circuit.

  That way they can regulate the access.

  So even if you got a username and password, it would not necessarily be the correct one, or be functional for your area.

  DPRK Asserts that USA has Declared War

  by cofty in

  2. current

  north korea has taken president trump's recent statements as a declaration of war.

  pyongyang reserves the right to shoot down american planes even if they are not inside their airspace.. i listened to trump's speech to the un with dismay.

  it demonstrated a total lack of understanding of his enemy and the inevitable consequences of inflicting personal insults on kim jong-un.

  Nuclear fallout and radiation knows no boundaries...

  It will NOT stay on one side of an imaginary line on a map...

  The devastation will be felt for 1,000's of kms around the world!
