we've seen one backflip.
crooked hillary became a hard-working woman who deserves the nations praise (in his victory speech);.
now according to a uk newspaper:.
GreatTeacher - I agree
Look up the movie A Face in the Crowd starring Andy Griffith
The script will be Drumpf's life as POTUS
The shit just got real for him, he didn't even think he was going to win, or he wouldn't have been crying the system is rigged a week before the election. He's scared as he can be right now, but his yuuuuuge ego will never let him admit to that.
i just had a random recall about jws and what they used to peddle.. in my area of pennsylvania (usa), there was a brother who used to be the shaklee dealer.. there was also a brother who owned his own landscaping company and sold long distance phone plans.
in fact, i remember 3 brothers who sold lond distance plans.. did anyone else experience these products or others?
just wondering.. brian.
I remember some brothers here in Queens, NY started an insurance company, it even made the newspapers, but not front page, it was found out they were duping the folks, which of course were brothers and sisters, and keeping the money for themselves.
i voted today in nyc.
a well organized process.
very busy and most of the people voting were african american.
Hey NY44M - I saw some black folks today, just thought you might find that of interest since you pointed out that you saw a lot of black votes when you were voting like it's some oddity or something.
anyone else hear about this.
as all j-dubs know, whenever someone complains about how long the "new system" is taking too arrive, they use the excuse that jehovah works on his own time.
quite a few times during the public talks, i've heard speakers say the phrase "1000 years to us is only one day to jehovah" (my parents never stop talking about this).
What I don't get is that they always say one day is like a thousand years, then how come they've been saying the Big A is just around the corner? I've heard that growing up back back in the 60's till the day she died from my mother, just like the rest of em' always said. Yet they acknowledge the scripture about no man knows the day or hour, plus the one day is 1,000 years, yet they all still sound as phony as Fred Sanford and all those phony heart attacks he has everyday, you can cry wolf just so much until folks don't want to hear from you anymore.
i always have a nice bowl of candy ready for trick or treat, we don't get many so you usually have a short conversation with the parents.
so a mom & 3 kids come and the two boys were dressed in suit and ties!
i am laughing because my first thought was they were dressed as jw's!
that's true

Carla, here in U.S. Halloween is celebrated tomorrow, Monday, on the 31st, where country are you in where Halloween was celebrated today?
so if the gb changed its "bible based beliefs" on some teaching, would witnesses all of a sudden change their individual beliefs too?.
witnesses like to claim that "their bible trained hearts and minds" make them believe as they do, but we know that the reality is that all witnesses hold their "deep seated beliefs" according to what they have been told to believe.. so what would cause the average witness to question those that dictate their "personal convictions"??.
thoughts?.
If the GB changed a major teaching, would all witnesses just go along with it?
That's what being a JW means, the old guys in Brooklyn think of something new, write a newfangled letter about it, throw in a few scriptures and they all say "oh, what a loving provision Jah has provided us with", otherwise known as new light, or what we call it here, flip flopping.
Their minds are closed, that's why I say JWs would make great Trump supporters, all that BS he spews out his followers just eat it up and defend him, just like the Dubs do.
we all know that education is severely demonized in this religion.
and that the elders are appointed based on how many meetings they attend, hours they put in on the ministry and general attitude to other elders (as apposed to, you know, actual theological training and counseling) - so my question is, what were your elders occupations outside the kingdom hall?.
in my old congregation our elders consisted of:.
One was a member of MENSA and had a good job in IT
You mean one elder was so darn smart he was a member of MENSA, but yet he was a JW? Just goes to show, smart people are crazy.
