I was quite tolerant of this guy until now

by never a jw in

president trump is definitely a demagogue, a populist, and not a great extemporaneous speaker, just to mention few of his more conspicuous flaws.

however, i was going along because "it's the economy stupid".

now that has changed.

Trump won't get elected either...

EMDR Therapy Anyone?

by Brian J in

two+ months into marital counseling for my wife (pimi) and i (pimo).

wife after decades of marriage decides for the first time to bring up separation due to, drum-roll please...... absolute endangerment of spiritual life.

a spouse may constantly try to make it impossible for the mate to pursue true worship or may even try to force that mate to break god’s commands in some way.

I've had the therapy for a few different reasons.

PTSD for a bad car accident while I was still a dub, PTSD from a large earthquake I lived through after quitting the dubs. Also, some dub related sessions.

I'm trying to go again.

It's a very simple process and I'm happy to answer any questions if I can.

North Korea threatening to bomb Guam...

by mikeflood in

crazy kim again....could happen?

thoughts?.

Regarding this so called judgment message..

by nowwhat? in

will our fearless leaders the gb call a news conference and invite all the major news networks and outlets and put their asses on the line and declare "you are all doomed!

" or will they have the rank and file do all the dirty work while they sit back in their gated corporate country club?!

ask any jdub that question!.

I think so few will participate in this "judgement message".
It's like the GB is trying to wake everyone up.

Maybe they should have Stephen Lett or Tony Morris do a sample door to door presentation so everyone sees how Jesus' brothers do it...

Better yet, just have the dubs show the video at the door.
"This is our leader, listen to his important message..."

Remember , this was Kevin's pre great tribulation downfall.

Not culty at all, folks

Boyfriend force me to study the bible or no marriage

by MuslimWoman in

my boyfriend, who is a disfellowshipped jehova's witness, asks me to study the bible for 3 months or he won't marry me (i'm a muslim woman).

he loves me and really wants to marry me but he is doing a passive blackmailing: if i don't study for 3 months, 1 time per week, in my home country, and without him, there will be no marriage... as a muslim, i believe the bible is god's word so i look at the bible from time to time and would be happy to study with him.

but the fact that he is kind of saying "study the bible or bye bye no marriage" is really hurtful.

Watchtower= dangerous cult with millions of followers.
Islam= the most dangerous cult with over a billion followers.

Drop them both and determine your own path while you enjoy personal freedom.

Today's text caused a fight between myself and my "Still In" wife.

by NikL in

jw
friends

she insisted on reading it to me and i just couldn't keep my freaking mouth shut.. see if you can tell why.... sunday, february 18.

they would go where the spirit inclined them to go.—ezek.

jesus has appointed the ‘faithful slave’ to be the only channel for dispensing spiritual food.

".... toward the vindication of his sovereignty and the sanctification of his holy name!"-- what the heck does that even mean?

God is not satisfied unless his defective creation adores and worships him in the ever changing, 'right way'. Any that refuse will be killed.

Is it a Gun Issue or a Mental Illness Issue or Both?

by minimus in

jw
friends

we have had another shooting.

many are blaming trump and the republicans and the nra.. is it because of guns that there are so many massacres or could it be that these killers are mental?.

do you think guns should be removed from our society so that these atrocities never occur again?

kairos

the problem is definitely not law abiding citizens with legally obtained guns. It's the murderers. They do not follow the law.

More school security with heavily armed soldiers fixes this in one day...

An armed guard with a good aim is a great match against any intruder. Why not have 10 or more heavily armed and trained National Guard soldiers at each school? If the shootings continue, add more soldiers.

Add in high level ( sporting event/music concert ) gate security.

It's a money issue. Spend enough to secure the schools. Problem solved.

Internet Search Engines And Some Of The First Things I Typed

by Brokeback Watchtower in

it was back in mid nineties 93,94 or 95 before it became what it is today.

anyway they had a bunch of search engines and the first thing i typed in it was jehovah witness, then jesus christ, next came lsd, magic mushrooms, nude pictures.

i think in that relative order.. i remember reading a different story about jws in germany during the nazi era, not anything like the 74 yearbook's depiction.
