Why Did Obama win the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009?
by JW_Researcher inwhile even non-peaceful people have been awarded the peace prize (e.g.
arafat, kissinger), i am confused as to how obama could possibly have won the award one year after being the first term junior senator from illinois with zero “peace” experience (other than his ‘well-articulated’ rhetoric)..
reading the obama-pining on a couple of posts made me reexamine my view of barry’s presidency..

Yes Kramer, I believe that you are correct. When I was a Bethelite back in the 1970's it was well known that WATCHTOWER was a big customer of Chase Manhattan Bank and Chemical Bank. In the 1990's Chase and Chemical merged. In the year 2000, the Chase Corporation then merged with J.P. Morgan. So it is probably the case that WATCHTOWER is just a faithful long time customer of the J.P. Morgan/Chase banking company and conducting business as usual. Nothing sinister to see here folks...just move along.

Why Does So Much Intellectual Innovation in the US Tend to Come from the East or West Coasts ???
by RubaDub inthere are many good universities in the central part of the us but why do so many innovative things, i.e.
silicon valley, seem to happen on one side of the country or the other (california, new york, massachusetts to name a few)?
even what is considered the most high tech area in the center of the country, austin texas, is a huge liberal bastion.

*WARNING SUICIDE RELATED POST
by Annamouse inbit of background: a couple of years ago i was reproved after i slept with a brother that i was in love with but we were not married.
in fairness, the elders were kind and supportive.
the problem is, i had always been the model witness before that.

Take heart, Annamouse. As you can see by the comments of blubberyk9, road to nowhere, Simon, MeanMrMustard and hybridous you are among people that support you. No need to feel guilty or dirty about your sexual experience or suicide attempt. We are all frail humans and find it a challenge to navigate along the road of life. The problem with most religions is that they put you in a double bind. They expect perfection from you in your conduct while driving it into your mind that you are a worthless sinner that is prone to do bad and can't get along in life without their guidance. One of my favorite quotes is from Jon Kabat-Zinn: "At any given time in your life, there is more right with you than wrong with you."

Iowa Democratic Caucus - Just WOW
by Simon inthere was a babylon bee or onion spoof article a few weeks back claiming the democrats would lose their own caucus and ... well, they managed to do it for real.. apparently they can't count their own votes, their app and process is now steeped in corruption (created by a company called 'shadow' that has taken money from multiple candidates as well as the dnc and has links to clinton) and multiple candidates have declared themselves the winner.
biden has apparently done so badly that he's going to court to block the results being announced.
no estimate of when they will be released even.. how do they come up with this ... and what does it mean for the election results where they oversee the counts?.

Fundraiser: Pancreatic cancer : Raffle Man Utd shirt signed by team
by Diogenesister inyou might have noticed some of my comments over the last few months have been a bit down.. you see my wonderful brother, marcus, is terminally ill with pancreatic cancer.
to make things worse, as if they could be, he was finally blessed with his first child, liliana, 19 months ago and we're all absolutely heartbroken for this little girl.. my sister joined a running club some years back and she's finally got a place to run the london marathon 2020. she's donating money raised by the run to pancreatic cancer uk.
they're currently researching for a test...its basically why the prognosis for this cancer is so poor, there are few very specific symptoms... until it's too late.. her footie mad boyfriend has got his paws on a signed man utd football shirt which they are raffling.

Very, very sorry to hear this news. I am so old fashioned that I don't have a Facebook page. Is there another way that I can make a donation? Also, I have sent you a PM.

My dyed in the wool religious fanatic Jehovah's Witness mother died in the year 2000. She was in intensive/critical care most of the time from November 1999 through March 2000. In her last weeks she kept asking me to take her home from the hospital because she KNEW that Armageddon was only a matter of weeks away and she wanted to hold on long enough to live into the new system. Her Armageddon came in March 2000 just about 20 years ago. And so it goes.

the Watchtower guide to sex.
by stan livedeath init occurs to me the gb probably dont have much experience when it comes (!
) to marital sex guidance, so i think its only fair and reasonable we should put together a few hints to help them publish a suitable guide.. it is well known a lot of jw's get married in order to have sex, and all to frequently the marriages fail, possibly due to sexual problems, so the watchtower guide to sex should prove to be very worthwhile.. any jw courting couple intending to get married should be allowed to have a copy of the guide, and should only be available by a special order through the body of elders.. copies are not available to any single bros and sisters.. all and any advice in it must adhere to bible principles, and certainly no salty language or smut will be allowed.. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
so--to get this started--and in no particular order--here is my first suggestion:.
