North Korean Gift to "American Bastards" for Independence Day
by cofty innk has taken another important step towards having a viable nuclear arsenal with the successful trial of an icbm.. kim jong-un says new missile is 'gift' to 'american bastards' from north korea on independence day.. one major hurdle left for kim jong-un is working out how to make his nuclear bombs small enough to be delivered by the missile.
that is not an insurmountable obstacle.. the us sate department have issued a statement stating that it "will never accept a nuclear-armed north korea".
how exactly to prevent this outcome is not clear.

What's a word that describes the way Witnesses behave as a group?
by paul from cleveland ini can't recall the word that describes a group that keeps to itself like the witnesses do.
i thought it was "insular" but i don't think that's the one i'm looking for after reading the definition.
i remember an elder using the word "clannish" and that has the proper definition but it reminds me of a group of elves.

ISIS Destruction of Ancient Palmyra Temple

Like others here, I have no contact with JWs anymore - have not spotted them out on the door knocking either in my street.
I do see them sitting at their tables in town with magazines etc. Next time I'll ask them your question.

Is It Time to regroup?
by John Aquila inhow much do you want to bet that the organization has already started preparing articles for the watchtower magazines, convention talks, circuit overseers talks and letters to bodies of elders, to refute what is happening in australia?
.
right now the most important thing for the wt to do is protect their image that they are gods visible organization.especially in the u.s. and latin american countries.

Speculation ( not theory ) on child abuse inquiries.
by DATA-DOG inmost of you, like me, keep yourself informed as to what's happening in jw-land.
like me, you make it your business to know what's going on.
so i'm wondering why the wtbts is allowing eldubs to appear in these inquiries in australia??

DarioKelh 'its because lett, morris, losch, herd, jackson, sanderson and what's-his-name will NEVER sit in the hot seat themselves. They simply ignore summons and refuse to appear.'
If so, Cardinal Pell will manage to look superior (even if he withholds evidence) as he is returning to Aust to front up again to the RC later on for further evidence. Something the gb could learn from as hiding away in their dormitories shows their complete and utter guilt more so than their Catholic church foe.

by PokerPlayerPhil ini had a photo copy of the magazine "the generation that will never die!
" sitting in my office, he saw it and being the voracious reader he is, he asked me "why did the magazine say all those people would never die?
" i told him "humans make mistakes, they were wrong by claiming that.

PPPhil,
Your boy is not only smart but sensitive to info that adults gloss over - like the red faced elder who would certainly remember 1980.
