  LOL.

  We got an old guy who uses Zoom on his iphone for meetings

  He holds the phone on his lap with the camera pointed up.

  The main thing you see are these 2 giant nostrils.

  If my stomach could handle it, I could zoom in and count his nose hairs.

  YouTube BANNED this video yesterday!

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. social
  2. current

  it lasts for 45 minutes, but the first 11 minutes are more than enough to see that something is not quite right regarding the media's information about covid 19. the video has english subtitles.

  Isn't he the "Queen of England is really a lizard" guy?

  Maybe - maybe - he ain't the best source for Covid-19 info. Just sayin'.

  People criticize the rank of The WatchTower and Awake!

  by dydeonwl in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  people are not willing to accept the popularity of the watchtower and awake as these magazines belong to jw.

  a listing site has declared the watchtower the most popular magazine in the world.. source: https://tingtopten.com/2020/01/top-10-most-popular-magazines-in-the-world/.

  in comment section of this link people are abusing again jehovah's witnesses.

  I'm pretty sure you've posted this drivel on this site under different names in the past.

  As I noted on your other posts: If by "popular" you mean "most likely to be accumulated in stacks of several hundred in the back of the closet of a JW for years or even decades, never to see the light of day until said JW dies and his kids have to clear out the trash from his house", then yes, I agree with you.

  Generally Speaking Do You Trust Your Government?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  as a us citizen, i am usually a bit skeptical of what comes out of the mouths of government officials.

  often they may speak the truth but i’m not convinced of whatever they are saying as being 100% true.

  do you believe your government implicitly?

  Is the WTBTS preparing to...

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ...tell the sheeple that "jehovah's earthly organization" is financially facing critical times, hard to deal with, which could threaten its survival and that it urgently requires as much money as the minions can send.. like every other business in the world, the cult needs a constant source of cash to exist.

  so with meetings, assemblies, and probably conventions being cancelled, the cash-cow is rapidly looking very precarious.. i reckon the financial brains in the wtbts will have devised a financial survival plan - based on the situation continuing/worsening.

  :) the sheep have all been fleeced - time to skin them!.

  I fully expect the urgent pleas to "give, give" to start up about the 2nd week in April, when the monthly contribution amounts normally flow into the WTS coffers, and the amounts are shockingly low (given that there were virtually no KH meetings nor assemblies for over half the month.

  "Give, give"....now where have I heard that before?

  Oh yeah, Proverbs 30:15:

  The leeches have two daughters that cry, “Give! Give!”
  There are three things that do not get satisfied,
  Four that never say, “Enough!”

  Hmm, the revised version of 3 things that do not get satisfied:

  -- Splane's ego

  -- Sanderson's appetite

  -- Morris' thirst for single-malt

  You can turn off your video if you don't like it, or just simply not call into the zoom meeting.

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

  latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

  the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

  Florida might be worse, but it’s not a country.

  It is kind of its own little universe but it is part of the USA. Thanks in part to Florida, expect the USA numbers to dwarf everywhere else soon.

  Do they have many cases so far?

  Undoubtedly, but no one knows for sure since there is a grave shortage of tests available.

  It's almost like it was easier to think it was all a "hoax" and do nothing until people actually started, you know, dying.

  Even if the UK dramatically altered course tomorrow and shut down, it will still have been far slower
  than most other countries have managed. It is a complete disaster.

  I dunno, if you count "Florida" as a country:

  -- bars & nightclubs open until 3 days ago

  -- beaches open until 2 days ago, and still technically up to local jurisdictions about whether to close them

  -- thousands or tens of thousands of college-age spring breakers, after mingling in that environment for multiple days, are now driving back home, undoubtedly a huge proportion of them carrying the virus with them to infect their home towns.

  I would not be surprised if Florida, with so many people 65+ and being even worse prepared for testing than most of the rest of the USA, just by itself surpasses the UK's, or even Italy's, overall death count.

  Why would you think it's a conspiracy?

  Growth in the US is still exponential, even with only the inadequate testing done so far. Within about a month, if things go as they have up until now, we're going to need a few hundred, or a few thousand, of those field hospitals.

  Don't buy any green bananas!

  It's closer than the inside of your eyelid!

  Just ignore that this is the identical message we've been spouting every day for the past 141 years! This time - this time - we're sure we're right!
