we have been in a battle over health care for so long here in the us regarding public, private, gov't subsidized, obama care, medicare for all, and just about every permutation of the above.. we hear the horror stories here that people wait 20 years for a check-up (ok, bit of an exaggeration), but you get the point.
one side tells us that canadians flock across the border when they are sick and need to see a doctor.
the other side says that is simply not the case.. so tell us, if you live under one of the government systems would you replace it?
what completely pisses me off--is "sports" related injuries.
why should people who choose to spend their leisure time running, kicking or hurling various sized and shaped projectiles around, riding bikes down steep hillsides and other equally pointless activities expect to get free medical attention when they injure themselves ?
PAY UP OR PACK UP
i know bad cops exist in many cities.
i know some cops who aren’t “bad” but do have an attitude.
however, i prefer to have law and order as opposed to chaos.
dunno--but if they did i could find out what the right time is.

i rarely see a policeman---or woman---walking their beat.. they seem to be car based these days
i drove through a nearby seaside town today.
it was starting to rain.
it was cold.
today i walked between a cart--and the 2 attendants. one was a guy in his 50's ( i would think ) the other a lad in his teens. the older guy was more interested in his companion than any passer by. i think the watchtower bunch must see this all the time.
speaking to a pimo from my hometown yesterday.
he told me that in the watchtower study (10 nov 2019) regarding “the great tribulation” the elder on the platform said that there’s no need for jws to preach in every country in order to fulfil the prophecy, and therefore the org has already fulfilled that prophecy.
and that there’s nothing else left to wait for now but for “the great tribulation” to come.. gasps of delight came from the audience.. has anyone else heard this?
no need to worry about the big A starting anytime soon. the nations have to turn on babylon the great first...and the last of the 144000 need to die. so theres the perfect cop out for the watchtower--those 2 events are entirely out of their hands. brilliant.
thought i was done going but want to keep family happy.
anway they found away to make the theme about love as dry and monotone as a corporate board room meeting.
932 attendance.
the cong overseer in the second cong i went to--50ish years ago...was a lovable old git..who couldnt spell or pronounce written words properly.
OHIO was pronounced "IO-HOI"
in the new article about the international convention in manila, the picture of the crowd is pretty telling.
they look so drained and miserable!.
.
in the second picture--the guy rear left--in the grey jacket with gaudy tie---looks like the police chief in "police academy" when he was given a BJ.
just looking at the pictures in tomorrow's wt study makes me think of the nightmares i used to have as a child.
and nowadays the pictures are sometimes more realistic, so for any who are truly mentally in, this has a terrible effect on them and even their life choices.
looking in as a pimo or pomo it seems almost comical that adults would believe in this sci-fi bible fan-fiction, but it's not funny when we remember that all ages of the r&f are being manipulated by the gb by these cheap and evil means.. .
so--to re cap---world goverments will turn on all religions before armageddon, and
the great tribulation will not start untill all the 144,000 are in heaven.
have got that right ?
so not anytime soon then.
i have no idea if im doing this right.
i'm an atheist but i'm curious about the religion.
theres a service(?
why in gods name would an atheist want to go to a jw meeting ?
but i think its best to go--just the once--to get it out of your system.
you will find it boring. it is not a service--although they do sing a song and say a prayer..but you stand up for that-- not go down on your knees and stick your arse in the air. although i suppose you could if you really wanted to.
but if you really want to believe in a god--just go outside on a clear day ( or night ) and look up into the sky. if you see him--do let us know.
