  Things that YHWH Never Told Me. Did You Know that YHWH Came from Egypt? Hmmmm!!

  i belong to a group (best description that i can think of) that specialises in sharing academic papers.

  ok, sometimes that provides me with all kinds of interesting material pertinent to my research interests.

  but, sometimes, (and since i have not read all of it, i'm assuming its fair dinkum, genuine research) something turns up (not among my usual research interests) that blows my simple brain.. anyway, after a brief examination, my conclusion is this: i think charlie russell would have gone gaga over this research.. the author has named his paper, .

  is this just a coincidence?

  is trump a “super spreader”?

  is this a republican payback?

  I think everyone will get infected sooner or later. This will be around for ever. Most wont even know they have it. Some will get sick. A few--mostly the elderly: especially with other serious life limiting conditions, will die. Thats life.

  How do you personally deal with your still in family JWS ?

  by Finkelstein in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  for myself i just try to avoid them intentionally maybe see them once every couple of years on average.

  they used to be easy going but over the last 10 years or so they got more cult like and distant and i'm really not bothered by that, maybe a bit.

  they stick to their own or other members like they are their family so, its makes it unattractive for myself to connect and reach out to them anymore.

  has anyone seen the 2017 movie apostasy?

  set in britain, the story is about a family, a single mom and her two daughters, who are jehovah's witnesses.

  i'm not going to give away too much of the plot, but holy moly!

  i confess --i did watch it--this evening. it is a very accurate insight into the strange world of the watchtower cult....complete with a couple of cart witnessing clips.. Only problem--it ended just as it was beginning to turn a corner.

  nice to watch an English film for a change. ( and a bit of Urdu--for a laugh )...but more suited to a TV drama i would think. Now that would be an idea.

  thinking back--i have to laugh about all the 1975 hype.

  i had quit 3 years before..but the elders had assigned one of them to try to get me interested again. He was totally sold on it. Then he mentioned he was buying a car on credit--because he would never have to pay for it. That killed it stone dead for me. That idiot went on to be a circuit servant !

  what i did do in the summer of 75--was to get my wife pregnant. We had our first son in april 76. She totally shuns him now--as he was d/f 10 years ago.

  "Stay alive till '75" was a popular jw slogan in the years leading up to 1975! We were sure that Armageddon would start in 1975.

  Now that I'm 73 years old, I'm personally trying to "Stay alive till (I'm) 75!"

  just saying!

  
  

  i will be 73 next feb. my old dad managed 94..so thats my target.

  California to ban sales of fossil fuel cars in 15 years

  by mickbobcat in

  1. social
  2. current

  this will never work but liberals are too stupid to know it.

  first off all you have to do is cross the border and buy a car.

  if they will not let you license it in the state then many will license it out of state.

  My daily commute is 82 miles (132 kilometers) round trip. Not at all unusual in the U.S.
