  See, the problem with a lot of those recommendations (and i love most of the ideas) is that they all involve a lot of personal preference. Buy me a watch? I dont do cheap watches and just because a watch is expensive dosent mean its my style. Knives? Same. I favor certain styles and metal types.... we could go on and on but you probably get the idea.

  Your idea, however, of treating him to a nice day, home cooked meal etc etc is always the right size and style :) nothing like a personal touch and little special care. It cant be bought or replaced.

  so i'm downtown and i see two jws hanging out on a bench by a cart.

  i approached them and said, i saw you guys on the news, there was a child abuse cover-up in philadelphia.

  they don't respond and just look at me.

  There two critical flaws in john’s approach.

  First is the lack of any geuine care about the result. Tied up with that is john’s own inferiority complex.

  
  

  you see john calls them cowards and seems to feel like a ‘big man’ because he mouthed off to them.. but if they are indeed the cowards he thinks them to be, why mouth off at all? One need not kick a puppy cowering a corner for protection.

  
  

  If john really cared about results he could have casusually asked the dubs if they saw that Report he mentioned and built on it. If they say no he could have filled a few details, offered some sympathetic remarks about how awful child abuse is etc etc...

  
  

  Instead he acted like a moron and demanded that somehow the witness be aware of something that HE thought they should be aware of , dispite already telling him they wernt aware, and acted like an ass when the dub didnt cowtow to his insane demand to look it up on the spot.

  
  

  No regard for outcome, clearly knows witnesses wont be aggressive with him and takes advantage to help build his low self esteem.

  
  

  Congrats john! *slow clap* you stood up to pacifists! Perhaps next time you could try taking some lollipops from toddlers. They have a firm grip and may provide more of a challenge.

  Remember a bold builder named Arnold Swartzanegger

  Wow what made him bold? Did he defy zoning laws? Did he create buildings in clashing colors? Did he defy the city council and water his grass???? Please dont leave us hanging as regards this bold builder!!!

  I tease because i care. And because the OP is ridiculous.

  Austria Begins Closing Mosques and Deporting Imams

  by cofty in

  2. current

  austria, a member of the eu since 1995, is a country of 8.8 million people with a muslim population of around 600,000 mostly turkish immigrants.

  in 2015 it passed an 'islam law' prohibiting foreign funding of religious groups and creating a duty for muslim organisations to have 'a positive fundamental view towards state and society'.. many mosques in austria have continued to receive money from turkish muslim organisations so the new right-wing government have decided to enforce the law.

  seven mosques have been identified for closure and 60 imams are to be either deported or refused visas.

  Carla, there is no particular stance against them in print but, as with many issues, jw’s take nosy and over self important interest in what others do.
