i am a big tennis fan and today i watched serena williams win the australian open, one of the four tournaments which make up the pinnacle of achievement in the tennis world, the grand slam.

in her victory speech the first thing she said was that she thanked her god jehovah for the victory.

now i know that rumours have circulated for a long time as to whether she is a baptised witness or not, but she is definitely associated with witnesses .

she admits to having several personalities, and each has its own name

Bizarre. I just Googled this and found several other celebrities making the same claim. Most do not describe the syndrome known as Dissociative Identity Disorder, but rather their imagination. Maybe Serena is doing it to copy them.

It's AWESOME they put this pic in print. FINALLY showing the truth that they are wacko preppers.

Some congs don't do the prepping and even people here have refused to believe it goes on.

IMO this is a very significant pic. What does the article say?

Why would anyone have a JW.ORG sign in their unfinished basement?

It's a fake

Now I am still a Witness and this kind of talk makes me mad. The Sovereign of the universe is spending his time making sure a tennis player wins a tournament? Come on!

I agree, it's arrogant and silly to believe (or even worse, if it was true) for jehoopla to be spending his time on such matters.

Although jah making someone win a sport event is not one of their teachings, it is their teaching that he intervenes on some small life matters (only for some people at some times) while not intervening with suffering, violence, hunger, etc.

Serena is probably just trying to be politically correct/popular. This often means, instead of taking personal credit for personal achievements, one gives false credit to an uninvolved, nonexistent spirit creature.

hello forum,.

i'm new here and not sure where to post.

so, i'm 21 years old and currently a baptized witness, however, i'm slowly making my mind up to leave and here's why.. first, there are certain things that make no sense to me in the organization.

You can "be done with it" inside yourself. No need to help them do their mean, bullying shunning ritual and feel superior to you.

Good luck to you. The bright spot is you're young and have most of your life ahead of you to become your authentic, happy self. :)

How do Americans feel about Canadians and Britons interjecting their opinions onto hot localized political topics: gun laws, abortion, ect?

by adjusted knowledge in

in addition to the above question, why do citizens of the two above mentioned countries, or other countries, feel the necessity to tell americans how they should interpret the american constitution for localized issues?.

i fairly much have an idea what the general population in the usa feels in regards to the first question.

this could be one of the possible reasons cnn piers morgan poor ratings and eventual firing.

How do Americans feel about Canadians and Britons interjecting their opinions

I like it when they agree with me. ;)

People in countries that have had socialized medicine for a long time who comment about American tort law is particularly hilarious.

srsly I do not understand why most of US news and politics is of any interest to foreigners. Maybe it's because we're the wayward apostate children who left the family homestead and struck out on our own. Who knows.

If any Brits or Canadians would like the Kardashians, you can have them. Keep them.
