Eliminate the Oil Industry?

by Anony Mous in

a lot of countries are on the side of eliminating the oil industry altogether as well as zero-emission alternatives like nuclear power.. in the us, biden has promised to eliminate all federal lands oil production when he takes power in 2021 (30% of the united states) as well as native american tribal lands which account for 8 percent of all oil, 9 percent of all natural gas, and 6 percent of all natural gas liquids from 96,000 wells (10% of the total wells in the us).. in europe, oil and gas production has been largely eliminated except for the nordic countries and the uk (which the eu recently lost access to), germany is funding a major oil pipeline as is china from russia and russian-controlled portions of ukraine, even after trump cut off all builders from russian oil pipelines, the russian government is now trying to build the pipeline themselves with potential disastrous results.. venezuela's economy collapsed largely due to the government taking over and eliminating the oil industry companies.. in the mean time, control for most non-us energy sources is now wholly dependent on russian and middle eastern governments.. california and germany eliminated oil-based energy sources and now mandate 30% of their power from 'green' wind and solar alternatives.

germany energy costs now hover around 25c/kwh and california is not far behind with 16c/kwh both experiencing rolling blackouts in major cities and importing 60% of mostly coal and gas energy from their neighbors.. the world currently has 300 years worth of oil at the current rates of usage which have stagnated due to improved efficiencies.

co2 emissions in the us have dropped in the last 3 years for the first time in decades despite (or because) reduced oil and gas regulations.. do you think given the above facts, eliminating the oil industry is a good thing?

Biden Voter Fraud Admission

by Simon in

he's either admitting that they are relying on voter fraud, or he's a decrepit senile old fart who's unfit to be president.. which is it?.

did he also just claim that they committed fraud to get obama elected?

what a joke.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma8a2g6ttp0.

Obviously a senile moment but still hilarious

Always Obey

the life story in the latest wt has a running theme that keeps popping up: if the organization tells you to do something, you do it.

this culminates in the following anecdote:.

we were staying in abrother’s home right next to a kingdom hall.. .

The life story in the latest WT has a running theme that keeps popping up: If the organization tells you to do something, you DO it. This culminates in the following anecdote:

We were staying in a
brother’s home right next to a Kingdom Hall.
. . . the circuit overseer’s wife pre-
pared a bath for us. . . To my
surprise, the circuit overseer’s wife had
placed them outside the house in direct
view of the Kingdom Hall where brothers
were helping with the preparations for the
assembly. I asked her for a curtain of some
kind. She brought me a sheet of transpar-
ent plastic! . . . I thought
to myself: ‘The brothers are too busy to
notice that I am taking a bath. And if I don’t
bathe, they will be offended. Let’s get on
with it!’ So I did.

I don't know but a strange example to include to say the least. Bathsheba anyone? 😅

Bonus:

There's a picture of her and her husband with a group of ALL sisters, but they put a little arrow just in case you didn't know which one was Harvey 🤣

"Great Crowd" important detail glossed over

by neat blue dog in

the latest study wt gives another glowing report from rutherford's time:.

in his talk, brother rutherford identified those whowould make up the “great multitude” (king james ver-sion), or “great crowd,” mentioned at revelation 7:9. un-til then, this group was thought to be a secondary heav-enly class that was less faithful.

brother rutherford usedthe scriptures to explain that the great crowd are notchosen to live in heaven, but they are christ’s othersheep who will survive “the great tribulation”.

The latest study WT gives another glowing report from Rutherford's time:

In his talk, Brother Rutherford identified those who
would make up the “great multitude” (King James Ver-
sion), or “great crowd,” mentioned at Revelation 7:9. Un-
til then, this group was thought to be a secondary heav-
enly class that was less faithful. Brother Rutherford used
the Scriptures to explain that the great crowd are not
chosen to live in heaven, but they are Christ’s other
sheep who will survive “the great tribulation”

. . .

According to an eyewit-
ness, over half of the some 20,000 peo-
ple in the audience stood. Then Broth-
er Rutherford declared: “Behold! The
great multitude!” That was followed by
thunderous cheering. Those who stood
realized that they were not chosen for
heavenly life.

But what they fail to emphasize is that this declaration was demonstrably false, even by JWs own teachings. These people were NOT the great Crowd as they believe it to be, as they pretty much are all dead by now without "coming out" of the great tribulation into the new world. So this was a lie, along with Rutherford's words that only "weeks" remained for the old world. Of course that doesn't matter, as it is still just around the corner, as the article goes on to say:

With the great tribulation just ahead,
it would be encouraging for us to review
what Revelation chapter 7 further says

Why not help 'the friends' with the wealth?

by neat blue dog in

in the new testament, when funds were collected, they were distributed to all, not hoarded at hq (not that there was an hq).

of course now they're fraudulently taking credit for the government's free food program, but what about other things, unlike disaster relief, that don't get them publicity and credit?

for instance, the latest jwdotorg article about azerbaijan says this:.

One brother was repeatedly convicted and fined, eventually paying a total of . . . $11,375 . . .
Some brothers and sisters were even arrested because they could not pay the exorbitant fines.

Why not get them out of jail, or help all the others who've been paying fines? They could probably do it all out of the interest they make alone, instead of all the excessive and extravagant furnishings and electronics that they've deemed 'necessary'?

Anthony Morris wants former Jehovah's Witnesses DEAD

by neat blue dog in

in a disgusting new video, anthony morris iii talks about apostates, and brings to mind his 'hot dog' talk all over again as he anticipates the demise of ex-jehovah's witnesses.

i don't know if you're familiar with maggots, but when you see a whole bunch of them it's not a pleasant sight.. .

what a fitting picture of the final end of all of god's enemies.

Wow, excellent point Funky. A psychopath hiding in plain sight!

That's what makes me mad: He's talking about people who have been mentally abused, maybe physically too, as well as those who have actually thought and researched and can no longer accept the lies and want to warn others, but he speaks like they're worthless scum.

THIS VIDEO NEEDS TO BE USED IN COURT EVIDENCE WHEN JW LAWYERS TRY TO SAY THAT JWS ARE FREE TO LEAVE AND THEY DON'T DEMONIZE EX MEMBERS.
