Cambridge professor just went full retard ...
by LoveUniHateExams inever heard of david runciman?.
he's a professor of politics at the university of cambridge, no less.. he's also a complete retard, for want of a better word.
according to prof. runciman, six year old children should get the vote, so as to counteract britain's aging population.

What would we think about a person who lived alone in the dark for years and years on purpose?
by TerryWalstrom inthe spookiest questions about god are profound when we take one step back and examine who/what such a god would be... j-u-s-t before creating the universe.... .
before anything was created: god wouldn't have been "the creator".
with nobody around wouldn't be supreme being (superior to who/ what?

Your fundamental argument is flawed. Your attempting to take what believers define as the single source of everything, the ultimate divine being, beyond all mortal comprehension and apply mortal standards like time or even darkness. No believer would ever give this argument the dignity of a response let alone any serious consideration.
I see where your going with it, but im not sure it works.

Cold war 2.0
by mikeflood incanada arresting the daughter of china's huawei telecomunications conglomerate with the intention of extraditing her to the us for "violations of sanctions to north korea & iran", navy ships sailing for first time in 30 years near of russian bases "to challenge excessive russia maritime claims" , us secretary of state speech saying that "the multilateral approach is not working anymore".
maybe the last is the most worrisome.
it looks like the us know something that we don't know, that they are weak like banana republics, going to comply to whatever demands they make, or that this is the last real chance to stop them.....one little miscalculation and this takes fire...hope not, it's lot more funny talk about the borg.

Good. The chi-coms need to be checked on the world stage. They undercut the world communities efforts to keep rogue countries like north korea and iran in check, aside from lessor but important crimes like stealing our technology.
Also not being discussed is the chi-com government disapearing the head of interpol. I guess he wasnt a member of the muslim brotherhood writing opinion pieces for the washingtion post so he doesnt matter.

Did you know Banks create money out of thin air?
by TerryWalstrom inbanks create money “out of thin air.”empirical studies have been undertaken to prove this thesis and this is the conclusion:.
in the 5,000 year history of banking, banks have been thought of as “deposit taking institutions which lend money”.. 1. what is the legal reality?
banks don’t take deposits and don’t lend money.the public is under this false impression on purpose because the language of banks is not legal language.. so--what is a “deposit”?a deposit is not actually a deposit.

I absolutely meant hidden as in making the numbers difficult to find. They used to publish the yearly stats in a wt study article. Then they moved them to the yearbook. Now they are hidden ( definition:
hid·den
/ˈhidn/- 1.past participle of hide1.
adjective- 1.kept out of sight; concealed. )On the website where one must actively look for them instead of them being force fed to you.

Yea the stats are hidden now. Clearly they see the trends and decided to start de-emphasizing the stats while they were still showing marginal growth. That way when the stats actually show decline they have been hidden for a while and its not obvious

"The Branch did not approve of us to get a video security system"
by James Jack inthis was the reply i was given by our coordinator at our recent kingdom hall security meeting.. he explained that they aren't allowed to buy any appliances or do any changes to the kingdom hall without branch approval.
"we put in our letter that a video security system could be purchased for around $600 locally and an app could be downloaded for the attendants to monitor the cameras what's going onoutside.
" they said;" such a system would not be needed in our area of the country, if standard protocols of security are followed as outline by the branch.

Morph, the local KH found their roofing shingles at a steep discount compared to the price that the LDC had. Nope. They supply all for the project. Don't rock the boat. Theocratic Order. Blah blah etc, etc.
ahh ok i see what your saying. The example helped to clarify.. The problem is it may not be “like for like” in the case of the items on sale. Cheaper quality etc etc... the fact is, there is no kickback setup for the ldc to purchase at a higher price and the branch to get the difference.
Its pure and simple a typical corporate move. As they become more centralized they dont want locals making decisions. The group that works at corporates direction kisses ass at all cost and obeys the letter of the law no matter how stupid.
if you want a kick back scam there has been one around for a long while... well besides the kh scam itself.
Look at circuit leasing.

Morph, it's true that they have volume discounts, but if locals find the same product at a lower price, they still have to purchase through the LDC
No, they do not.
