Just as Drumpf supporters stick by him no matter what he says, Dubs will eat up anything the seven old guys put out there. If the Borg and Drumpf came out with the same belief of 2+2=5, the blind followers will believe it.

JW's Would Stay With The Org Even If 1914 Was Dropped
by pale.emperor ini asked the question on quora: .
if the governing body abandoned the 1914 teaching, would you leave jehovah's witnesses or you would remain a member regardless?.

You may be a little confused. Do you think people support him because he is brilliant?
All the folks that turn out at his rallies, they think he's friggin' genius, just like he does. They think he's the best POTUS ever, just like he does.

two biological sisters in the cong I went to, one was skinny one was overweight (almost obese), guess which one was a preemie when born.
Also, I've heard Al Roker say, I think he mentions it in one of his books he was a preemie also, I'm sure you remember how he looked before he lost weight, I'm not saying your daughter is going to be overweight, but when you look at the two folks I mention, you would hardly suspect them to be underweight at any time in their life. Your daughter looks great, no more worries, no need to say she's on the road to recovery because she already has.

Funny occurrences
by Freedom rocks inwhat were some funny experiences you had of things that happened during talks at the meetings?.
a few of mine:.
- a brother had dyed his hair before his talk and it was raining heavily when he arrived at the hall and the dye was running down his face during his talk and his skin went more and more grey as the black dye ran down it.

A brother wanted to have an audio tap play where he did an audio drama. The brother at the sound played Side B rather then Side A. The song "Let's get physical" started to play. Everyone laughed for years.
HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ! ! ! Good one !
I've posted this here before, but we had a southern brother who they were trying to move up a ministerial servant after being in the Cong. for thirty or so years, was giving a talk about the Hittites and kept pronouncing if "high titties"

I'm sure we all have heard the story about Bethelites handing out water, then running inside and locking their doors, I believe it
A JW friend at the time told me a week or so after that it was confirmed that 12 or whatever numbers of the folks that died that day were JWs, I said what about the other folks, you don't care? Then she just said, "yeah, but it was just confirmed that "whatever number" killed that day were JWs - SMH., It's sad that you let seven old guys in Brooklyn hard wire your brain like that.
Even my mother who was an Uber-Dub, heard a brother make some pompous remark about how the other folks out here in the world better be glad they didn't caught or something to that effect, she even said that was wrong of him to say something like that.

What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?
by ILoveTTATT2 ini had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.
i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.
however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

Carts on both ends of the farmersmarket
by Still Totally ADD inmy wife and me have a booth at the local framers market.
there is usually about 12 t0 14 vendors each week on a small short street in town.
what is funny on each end of this short street are cart setups with 3 people on each cart.

Last Sunday I noticed a cart at the subway stop that leads to the Tennis Open here in Queens at the Arthur Ashe Stadium, because folks on there way to a sports event are usually up for a little religious propaganda. I'm sure it's a safe bet to say they didn't speak to anyone, which is the case for 99 per cent of the cart setups.

Do you like to experiment when cooking?
by Xanthippe injust lately i've become weary of following recipes in books or online.
recently when on holiday in the lake district i wanted to make pasta with a tomato and cheese sauce but the only interesting cheese they had at the local store was a somerset brie.
i discovered when peeled of its skin and tossed in with tomatoes and pasta it melts beautifully and tasted amazing.

Since the slow cooker is mentioned above, I've found that the best way to cook pernil,or pork shoulder it's also called, that huge cut of pork you probably see in the supermarket with the skin still on it. Pernil is a popular Latin dish, which some folks marinate with sour orange, garlic, oregano etc. I just stick some garlic cloves inside the roast and let it marinade overnight, most people put it in the oven to make the skin crispy, but I prefer it in the slow cooker, comes out perfectly, not dry or leathery at all.

That one with the guy knocked out sleeping is the best, I think my neighbors heard me laughing at that one.
Of course the icing on the cake with that pic is if he started snoring!!
