Thanks WTBS for changing the Kingdom Songs, you freed me!

by StephaneLaliberte in

yesterday, i saw a picture of a family signing kingdom melodies together.

it made me realize a fact that i am somewhat ashamed to admit:.

for over a decade, i have been aware of the false prophecies, the deceptive statements, the lack of scriptural support for many core practices and other issues with the witnesses.

How many professionally trained musicians on here can even stand the constant consecutive fifths and octaves, the dreadful parallel 7ths, false relations, crossing of parts and other abominations.

Did an amateur write those piano accompaniments, or a very clever satirist?

Give me arch catholic composer Palestrina any day. His settings of the psalms and other scriptures beat anything these clowns churn out. I get more of a spiritual KICK from his Missa Papae Marcelli (the Kyrie Eleison) than any amount of droning kingdumb songs at a$$emblies.

Have you noticed how MISERABLE the trolley and other public preachers look?

by hamsterbait in

saw three "public preachers" standing in a triangle facing people as they approach.

they all looked so depressed, that i almost went up to them to ask:.

"where is your kingdumb smile - i thought jws are the happiest people in the world.".

Anybody else notice the miserable faces nowadays. If they dont know you they dont even look at you as they pass...

What Ailed Those Pilots ... ?

by snowbird in

the pilots and crew of the missing plane, was something wrong with all of them?.

sylvia.

Military tracking technology means the plane cannot have vanished from the screens. They are constantly on the alert for missiles etc. Try flying a small aircraft with no radio or electronics into foreign airspace - the planes will be scrambled. Only civiian tracking will have lost sight of it.

Twenty of the passengers were experts from a firm in Texas- in military tracking and cloaking technology.

I dont believe it crashed - those experts have been kidnapped. Unfortunately the other insignificant passengers have already been shot.

by DATA-DOG in

i have been suffering from fatigue, burning in my stomach, and i have always had canker sore issues as long as i can remember.

whether it's from stress or not, i can't say, but i might be getting an ulcer.

the burning in my stomach and intestinal puffiness is getting to be be chronic.

GO TO A DOCTOR. your symptoms are too extreme to waste time on any fancy diet. If your symptoms are of something more sinister GO BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.

Russian Parliament Approves Military Action in the Crimea

by ABibleStudent in

why did russian president vladimir putin ask the russian parliament to approve using military forces to keep the peace in the crimea, instead of asking the un?

why did the russian parliment pass a law approving military force instead of asking for the un to send peace keeping forces to the crimea (http://www.cnn.com/2014/03/01/world/europe/ukraine-politics/index.html?hpt=hp_t1)?.

is russia spiralling into a totalitarian dictatorship like germany in the 1930's and the soviet union from 1920's - 1990's with information control and coercive tactics?

hamsterbait

The government in ukraine has asked Russia to come in, unlike the governments in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Venezuela,Ecuador, Panama, Grenada.

As for information control and loss of human rights....

This is all pots and kettles.

It is basically a EUROPEAN problem - those in the W. of Ukraine want closer ties with the EU, Those in the East with Russia. America can butt out, and let them sort it out themselves.

In the sphere of Education "SPECIAL" now is used to refer to those with special needs, where they were formerly called retards imbeciles and cretins.

The Witchtower Babble and Trash Society is becoming more special by the hour.

I loved this video!! Cried in all the right places, smiled at the cliches, nodded head at the wise counsel.

I used to LOVE "da troof" - The Truth at the time. My heart was aching for the illusory happiness i knew as a kid...

I loved the meetings, the cameraderie, (fake) the delusional joy.

Once it ended, like any other tear jerker movie that plays to our prejudices and feelings, I woke up, and saw that the life the prodigal was returning to was all lies, except for the standards of decency all societies have.

Crying is not enough to move me to go back to what I know is a false way of life.

Lot aboandoned his career of usury in Sodom, and found a new one in the caves - getting drunk and pretending not to remember having sex with those shiksa whore daughters. Wonder how THAT could be put in a Witchtower video?

After the flood, Noah got drunk and did some kinky stuff with his grandson.

ACTUALLY - the assessment of how Gods people behave given a chance is right. For most dubbies " only the opportunity is lacking."

30) Crying after sex in the rain is normal.

Who was the Greek philosopher ? " Omne animal post coitum triste est." These BethHELL scriptwriters know more than they let on!

AND where the hell do the parents find the cash for a pioneer fund?
