  this is a great video.

  i think it's his best work so far.

  Witnesses don't care about 607. That is true . Because it means nothing in their mind. I similarly never gave the date any thought as it was just a date witnesses said and I said whatever.

  However! 1914 is a date witnesses have a fervor and veneration for in a near idolatrous level. And the key (whether they know it or not) is a lie that is 607.

  It's about 1914 and them lying blatantly for over a century. So yes and no. They don't care about the date but I don't think they know it's fabricated. Some witnesses need to learn it to know they are being lied to.

  Drink Driving

  by Simon in

  with the christmas almost upon us i would like to share a personal experience with you about drinking and driving.. as you may know the local police are having a serious go at drink drivers this year... well, a couple of days ago i was out for an evening with friends and had a small number of drinks before dinner, followed by some rather nice red wine.

  feeling jolly i still had the sense to know that i may be very slightly over the limit.. that's when i did something that i've never done before - i took a taxi home.. sure enough on the way home there was a police road check, but since it was a taxi they waved it past.

  i arrived home safely without incident.. this was a real surprise as i had never driven a taxi before, i don't know where i got it and now that it's in my garage i don't know what to do with it.. any ideas?.

  Clearly simon you were guided by the hand of the one true god, Dionysus, who looked after you in your inebriated state and saved you from the popo.

  I'll have to get some uber parifinalia for my car... hmmm

  Condescending theist tries to comfort fellow exjw's by telling them life isn't worth living without Sky Daddy

  this guy took over the exjw meetup.com group i follow and just sent out this email to all of us.to all members : i stepped in as an organizer to save the group in the hopes of connecting with other believers.

  it appears that after leaving jehovahs witnesses you all have given up your promise to spend the rest of your lives serving god.

  that now your free to just do whatever you want!

  I can only speak for myself.

  I became and infinitely happier person when I came to terms with atheism ie no believing in god.

  America - Do They Teach Science in North Carolina?

  i don't know whether to laugh or weep.

  us town rejects solar panels amid fears they 'suck up all the energy from the sun'...... jane mann, a retired science teacher, said she was concerned the panels would prevent plants in the area from photosynthesizing, stopping them from growing.

  ms mann said she had seen areas near solar panels where plants are brown and dead because they did not get enough sunlight.

  What's More Important...Taking care of immigrants or the needy in your country?

  Immigration is good. I think the outcome for both legal and illegal can be good. I am a product of Irish and Italian immigrants.

  I agree with minimus we don't take care of our own. But we are about to bend over backwards and make it rain on a big group that really doesn't like us much.

  This current situation is something unique. They are not escaping one idea to have another they are bringing the idea with them. Trust me. Some care and time should be taken before letting them all in. You can only do the best you can do. We should be doing our best not rolling out the red carpet for dangerous folks. You can't deny the majority are devout Islamic coming from an area that is an incubator for terrorists. Why not be extra cautious?

  The Military Failure of the United States of America. Why?

  by fulltimestudent in

  1. social
  2. current

  the usa is undoubtedly the strongest military power in the world, and has often been willing to use that power against other nations, some historians count 187 foreign wars in 200 years, and this youtube video lists the wars the us has fought in the twentieth century, most of which, (in the earliest part of the 20th c) it can be argued, were won by the usa.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q51nfakme-g. this is not an argument about the rightness or wrongness of any war.

  the argument is why the mightiest ever military power, a political power that controls overwhelming destructive forces, a power that claims to stand on the side of its god, does not win wars?

  have you thought about this question?

  Simple

  Same reason diseases never get cured. That won't make money.

  Healthcare.

  Warfare.

  Incarceration

  These things are kept as chronic and not acute to make money....

  It's really as simple as that.
