  Headline: "Islamic Invasion: Europe now scrambles for guns." How true is this?

  a 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?

  Unemployment rate for youth in EU is catastrophic.

  I agree with you wholeheartedly, this is a very sad situation for European youth.

  Has anyone tried using gold and metal detectors?

  by EdenOne in

  1. social
  2. physical

  i'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.

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

  by James Jack in

  2. experiences

  just got a phone call from an older sister saying that a couple that got re-assigned from bethel 4 years ago to live at their kh apartment as special pioneers, just received a letter saying "as of january 2016, your special pioneer assignment will be discontinued".. they live in a south miami kh(snapper creek congregation).. this couple had only served in bethel for 15 years before they were sent out into the special pioneer work.

  they are now in their mid 50's and the sister said that they have to find part time jobs to support themselves.. the older sister (does not have a pc or internet), says that the couple are just devastated!
