SEEKER 4...."Even as we're facing the worst financial and business crisis in modern history, no one is seeking out answers or solace from the WTS."

Well in these tough times ya can go to your local borno/evangelical church and get almost free entertainment "Rockin' to Christ" - what's better ,being entertained or being bored shitless? or ?

Sacalton is right ......when I started reading this topic it felt eerily like all those JW meetings where ,after something bad happening in the world , the brothers would twitter on about how close the end is now .Today I can't help but think of people back in Russels time aeons ago saying the same things in discussion and they are all dead now .

I wanna join in!

The economic problems stem from many factors including the powerful people of this world being greedy and opportunistic .Self indulgent politicians like Bush working hand in hand with them stuffed up, and have to pay for his war in oil bearing countries which suits the oil barons .Well someones gotta pay for that army and it's the people who will.

In the end the common people pay for the rich by paying too much for ordinary things and losing their houses which the rich pick up when economies falter ,and they wink at the politicians for working for them at a distance .

Same things have been forever mankinds problem since the industrial revolution ,and the politicians and rich use fear thru the media to frighten the masses to accept the downturn as if it was something that the people did to themselves (and only our benevolent politicians can get us out of).........SOUNDS ALOT LIKE WHAT RELIGION DOES WHEN THERE IS A DOWN TURN DOES'NT IT?

I'm sure that it seems like the end to some in America but it also seems to us that live outside of America that the people there think everything emanates from that country . Well alot does but look at a map of the world and see there is physically alot of other countries on this planet and they will move ahead even though affected to a degree by Americas woes.

Like I said ,somebody has to pay for the wars America gets into and their other excesses, and people in other countries don't want to pay for it.

America sees itself as benevolent but it ain't ,fuel prices which effect everything are a direct result of their greed BUT THE FACT IS THE RICH LIVING THERE WILL BE UNHARMED BY THIS DOWNTURN as they always are and some may even profit more from it .

So when things pick up again where will the prophets be, especially the one who started this topic?
