Has anyone tried using gold and metal detectors?
by EdenOne ini'm thinking about trying out a new hobby.
in my country there are plenty of places that are geologically suitable for the presence of gold nuggets.
in fact, several gold mines have been historically explored from the days of the romans until present day.. at the same time, i love archaeology and history and there are many possible unexplored archaeological sites near me that might merit a superficial survey.

Headline: "Islamic Invasion: Europe now scrambles for guns." How true is this?
by cappytan ina year to a year and a half ago, i would have taken this article at face value and believed it.. now, i realize this article comes from a dubious source.
world news daily has a die-hard right-wing bias.
so, in an effort to get real information, i'm asking my european exjw's, is this article all true?

The population of the European Union is 504 million

Just thought that somebody may be interested in these statistics.

Why unfortunately? You more or less have a front seat to watch the final collapse.

And that is where the mind gives in and cognitive dissonance sets in to find a solution.
Example 1:
Gods name is Jehovah / Gods name is not Jehovah
I think almost all JWs really know that Gods name is not Jehovah, but they have to use Jehovah as Gods name, but Gods name is not Jehovah, yes but use Jehovah for Gods name, OK Jehovah is God, but Jehovah is not Gods name, yes but ....
Example 2:
We freely preach out of love to Jehovah and our fellow man/if you do not preach you are blood-guilty and will die at the big A
I freely go in service because I love Jehovah and me fellow man, good that you go, because if you did not go you would be blood-guilty and and Jehovah would demand their blood from you, so you die at the big A.
Example 3:
Anybody help here ...

In Germany they do make a definition, people coming from certain countries are classed as "economic migrants", such as Balkan states, and as such are deported back to where they come from. This has however not been effectively enforced in the past, and although they should be deported many are not and are "tolerated".
A clampdown is supposed to happen on this, but personally have no way of checking if this takes place. Also the actual time taken to process the actual "Asylum Application" is being accelerated so that the "economic migrants" can be deported sooner.
There are reports in the press that some "economic migrants" just say that they are refugees from Syria which is a guarantee for "Asylum" (if they are really from Syria). To counter this, after finding out where they come from they are shown pictures of monuments/buildings that they should know if they really are from Syria, and they need to correctly identify these monuments/buildings. There is another problem that the authorities are having, apparently non-Syrians have Syrian identification documents that have apparently been issued by the Syrian authorities, so they are not forged, but are not genuine either. So it is not easy for the authorities.

Just across the road from where I live there is accommodation for refugees, the only commotion I have seen so far is when a group of about 8 Jehovah's Witnesses tried to enter the accommodation, but there are strict rules on who can enter and who cannot.
This is the view I have so far about the refugees, they are a group of sad, downtrodden and abused human beings, who had no choice but to flee the war in their own land. The millions of refugees in the world today, never asked to be born and never asked to be refugees.
Another thing, I was on the flea market this morning and there was a group of what to me were refugees, one man in his twenties with two adult females and three children. I can only guess at their family relationship. They looked very sad indeed. -

On respect for the belief of others. Sorry for the long post
by StarTrekAngel ini am inclined to start this thread in response to some comments made in other threads.
i have been coming around these forum for quite some time now so whatever you find in here is not just related to something someone may have said this week.
it can go months back as well.. i have seen many who claim to respect the belief of others but when it comes down to applying it into practice, things take a whole different tune.
