  So, the Womens March ... What Is It For?

  by Simon in

  it seems like mobilizing after the election, which seems pointless.

  i keep hearing demands for equal rights but don't understand what rights they are missing exactly.. normally a march is to show the support (and potential votes) for a cause, but ... votes for what?

  ... and the election happened already.. is anyone else confused?

  A question for those who still go to the meetings

  and it is ... why do most at the hall prefer to sit at the back and leave front rows empty?.

  I would so I could see the late comers and have direct and easy access to the facilities. While in the bathroom, I could watch the water run down the drain, check the contents under the sink, make faces in the mirror, stare at the ceiling, play with myself, pretty much anything other than sitting in the hall having my mind go dumb ( or is it numb?) listening to the drivel coming from the stage.

  Also, less likely to make eye contact with the speaker and not be as noticeable as I opened candy and gum, and so the moron behind me wouldn't notice my watching videos on the phone.

  I used to pinch my sisters so they would cry, then I could walk them in the back.

  Damn, I miss those days.

  Does Mr Trump have his own 'hotline' to Russia's President Putin?

  by fulltimestudent in

  according to australian newspaper, the canberra times (for aussies, its a fairfax publication) trump is able to contact putin and the conversations cannot be tapped.

  (an interesting claim).. quote 1:.

  "a former senior western intelligence operative, a specialist in russian counterintelligence deemed credible in washington, has provided the fbi with evidence that trump 'and his inner circle have accepted a regular flow of intelligence from the kremlin, including on clinton, since russian intelligence had compromised trump during his visits to moscow – so that he could be blackmailed'.

  i really hate all these "what if" posts

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  all these hypothetical questions about the organization's demise or what if god did this or that don't do anyone any good.

  personal experiences.

  info and insight about your congregation, circuit, area and the watchtower itself is what we need.

  boring post below, fyi.. i was with extended family this weekend and the conversation drifted to contributions and donations.

  they said  amazon will donate a percentage of your purchase to a charity of choice.

  i guess someone put in jdumbs and it went through.

  @Rebel,

  Nice! They definitely promote hate and intolerance. Amazon doesn't want that publicity for sure.

  If the GB changed a major teaching, would all witnesses just go along with it?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  so if the gb changed its "bible based beliefs" on some teaching, would witnesses all of a sudden change their individual beliefs too?.

  witnesses like to claim that "their bible trained hearts and minds" make them believe as they do, but we know that the reality is that all witnesses hold their "deep seated beliefs" according to what they have been told to believe.. so what would cause the average witness to question those that dictate their "personal convictions"??.

  thoughts?.

  My jdub wife said making 144000 symbolic would make her question things. But, I guarantee she would go along with it. Nothing short of an order to strangle our children would make her leave the organization.

  Hi all,

  Boring post below, fyi.

  I was with extended family this weekend and the conversation drifted to contributions and donations. They said Amazon will donate a percentage of your purchase to a charity of choice.

  I guess someone put in jdumbs and it went through. Anyone else heard of this? I didn't think watchtower was a charity.

  The whole gang agreed that more shopping would be conducted on amazon so the borg would receive more money.

  Anyway, that's all. Just curious.
