conversation with a JW about the sun
by neat blue dog injw: didn't we just hear somebody say that the sun's gonna blow up?.
me: well, they were saying that it will expand and eventually burn out.. jw: but it can't do that, it just keeps blowing up inside and getting more power.. me: well, they were talking about stars in general, how they have a life span.. jw: but god didn't make it that way, it's firmly established to time indefinite.
it's not like the sun is a regular star.

I was quite tolerant of this guy until now
by never a jw inpresident 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.

If the administration had imposed a rule requiring all gov funded projects to use american steel i would have applauded. Keep american tax dollars in america, although i wonder how much that would really be, but as a policy i love that.
Imposing terrifs is a bad idea on so many levels. I get his view that cheap steel from overseas is being financed by foreign governments and therefore its impossible for american steel to compete... but these terrifs will have huge ripples and the prices simply passed on to american consumers. It amounts to a back door tax increase.

Morpheus,
Trump is not the first one and he won't be the last. My problem is that either protectionists like Trump don't learn from lessons of the past or don't care. Either way is bad policyOn that you and i agree. At this point i can only hope someone talks sense to him or that this is some negotiating stance. Time will tell.

Annnnd now we gone full on into leftist looneyville. Mueller isnt circling anything. Trump inst crazy. He is far from the first to ever go or suggest the protectionist route. Get a grip.

I certainly prefered him to her, though im not sure that makes me a supporter of his... that said this is a bad idea. Protectionism never works.

The mistake is thinking the gb care about making the religion more accessible. They dont. The size of the cult is irrelevant to them. ‘Narrow is the road and few finding it’ and all that. They want a comparatively small easy fo handle cult that is self sustaining. Growth attracts attention from money grubbing governments and lawyers. Beards birthdays and blow jobs will never change. They. Dont. Care. To make it. Easy.

I bet that exactly what happened in 2002, they made some update to the wording. Maybe atlantis or someone else has an old copy we could compare too

I signed one in 1994. They had been around for a while, it may have been updated when they had you sign that one. Im sure some of the folks who were at bethel before me can chime in on whether or not they around prior to but i recall hearing they were.
Basically it was for tax status and to prevent anyone from claming they deserved to be paid after the fact. Its all cya bethel style.
To punks original question, 100% legit, and now we have the poster in question verifying ;)

Try Not To Vomit When You Read Todays Text
by pale.emperor intuesday, february 27. let the elders who preside in a fine way be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who work hard in speaking and teaching.—1 tim.
5:17.. those related to us in the faith certainly merit honor and respect.
this is especially true of the elders who are taking the lead.
