  as many probably remember, in 2018-2020, multiple kingdom and assembly halls were set on fire in the state of washington, so fbi, atf, local sheriff and arson alarm foundation offered $61,000 in rewards for information leading to arrest of the arsonist.

  the attacks (seven arsons and one shooting) included:.

  march 19, 2018: two arson attacks - one at a tumwater kingdom hall and the second at a kingdom hall on cain road in olympia.

  a mentally disturbed person, not a disgruntled apostate.

  is the opposite of disgruntled--gruntled ?

  Was / Is God biased ? prejudiced against certain Peoples / Tribes or Nations ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  let me explain :.

  after the creation account of the bible, tribes of people and nations began to form and spread around the land.. god first chose noah and his family to protect them as he destroys all others in the flood.. and he ticks off everyone in babel ?

  and then he favours abraham and his descendants as the nation of israel culminating in the jewish lineage to jesus the son of god.. he has never had any dealings with any other people`s or nation isn`t that some form of favouritism ?

  a simple " me" if you dont want to say more--or a short explanation about who is shunning you and how long has this been going on.. i'll set the ball rolling: my daughter--her husband and children; my younger son --no contact from them for 40 years...because i left their religion.. (edit--i just noticed the typo in the header--if should be of ).

  i have run across another jw death where the final wishes are for no service.

  3rd or 4th instance.

  another wanted a celebration of life which the elders squelched as far as i know.

  when my old JW dad died in 2016--i had his will checked and there was no mention of any funeral arrangements--and i know in the final years of his life he never mentioned it to me. I was his next of kin and visited him frequently--which the local " brothers" didnt any more. Ive no clue as to whether he had asked them not to..or if it was because they knew of his close association with me.

  Anyway--i certainly didnt want any jw's at his funeral--or any kind of religious service. So a simple quiet committal was arranged--attended by me. 2 friends of mine ( both ex dubs ) and a couple of staff from the care home he had lived at for his final years. None of my family attended.

  Biahi7 hours agoThere may even come a time where, instead of being disfellowshipped, say for smoking, over-drinking, or fornication, may pay a “Jehovah fee” of $1000. To avoid being disfellowshipped.

  its called selling pardons. ( refer: the pardoners tale in Canterbury tales by Chaucer. )

  FLORIDA Governor & Surgeon General advise AGAINST MRNA jabs after analysis found there is an 84% increase in the relative incidence of cardiac-related death among males 18-39 years old within 28 days following mRNA vaccination.
  

  one might ask how many 18-39 y o males died of cardiac-related issues in Florida in that 28 days.
