the old guys sided with hobby lobby today in denying birth control coverage to its female employees based on the owners religious views.
intact- is viagra for the guys.
funny how the far right evangelical owners of hobby lobby didn't want to touch that one.... read judge ginburg's scathing counter argument and opinion.. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/13pdf/13-354_olp1.pdf.

letter read that the society will no longer be making hardcover books.
also the told people to not place orders for daily texts or calendars if they had the ability to download these.
who downloads a calendar?
Like WTWizard said, just get a regular calender without having to print one. In fact, it's cheaper just to buy a calendar at places like The Dollar Tree. Hell, you can even get a paperback bible there.

gerry goffin's name may not jump out of your memory box but he sure wrote some of the most remembered songs on the past 60 years.. married to another great song writer,carol king, he leaves a treasure of great memories.. will you still love me tomorrow.
tonight i celebrate my love.
savin' all my love for you.
I LOVE Gerry Goffin and Carole King!!!! I didn't know he wrote the Theme from Mohogany, however I knew he wrote Saving all my love for you and Crying in the rain, both of which I played on the piano all the time. Losing these gifted entertainers, singers, songwriters really has had an emotional effect on me. Not long ago I was upset that Hal David died, Kasey Casem and now Gerry Goffin. Music, especially oldies or classics from the 50s, 60s and 70s were literally the soundtrack of my life. Couldnt imagine how my life would be like without his songs. Here is one of his songs I really like, especially Carole's version

i need a good fat-burner.
i am getting some serious love handles, and a gross poochy belly.
yeah, yeah...i drink almost every night, and this has been going on for almost 2 years, blah, blah..hic!?
No magic pill, however a high level biotin supplement and a good B12 supplement with B complex vitamins may help. Biotin helps break down fat.

wow.
you read about it here.
but, it still doesn't prepare you.. our hall passed a resolution to give about 15,000 to the wt.
This arrangement may have slapped some awake, however sometimes even when someone awakens to the awareness of being in a cult like JWs it sometimes takes several years before they finally take action and leave.

please list all the consipracies that have come true...or can be prooven (rock solid) to have happened.
purely for my own curiosity.
not mocking you all, at all..
i just saw my first watchtower magazine in about 15 years...it was tucked under my doormat.
all i can say is wow!
i was shocked at how small and flimsy it was.
And to think at one time they offered books like Babylon The Great Has Fallen, The Finished Mystery, etc. at the doors and now they offer 3rd grade level reading material.

for those of you who live in truly first world countries (uk, australia, canada, etc etc) you can skip this.
for those of us stuck in the usa, not a first world country at all, please feel free to read on.. i've done my best to be fiscally responsible my whole life.
i bought my first house at age 25. and because of having a little loot to protect and not wanting to end up in some overcrowded emergency room waiting hours to be seen by doogie howser, i purchased health insurance.
Lisa,
Not every healthcare facility takes Tricare insurance and if somebody has Tricare insurance and wants to see a doctor that does not participate in that insurance that doctor cannot see that patient and charge him an office visit fee.

i was curious if anyone knew how to listen to talks like sinutkos stay alive to 75, or fred franz talk about how there was no 1st century gb.. i can listen to them on youtube but they are on obviously apostate youtube channels.
i would like for my wife to hear them but cant do that on apostate youtube channels.. does anyone know if these talks are available in an online archive somewhere else?.

so a bank that freely violates the law, commits massive fraud, launders drug money and lies to investors is too moral to take money from porn stars.
one of the things i realized as an ex-jw is that masses of people are deceived and distracted by sexual mischief/sins while ignoring vastly more harmful wrongdoing in general society.
Metatron:
Clinton's actions by signing Don't Ask Don't Tell and DOMA ruin quite a few gay people's lives. However I agree with you on the banks hypocrisy.
