And each time they did make the Superbowl, they kept just losing. And by worse and worse margins each time--they made 4 consecutive Superbowls only to lose each time. Seems the Bills are good at sabotaging themselves, nothing more.

Apocalypse Might be Here at Super Bowl
by mrquik ini had tongue in cheek predicted the end would come should the buffalo bills ever make it to the super bowl.
that was many years ago when they couldn't even make the playoffs.
now things are looking grim as buffalo has a good shot of being there in february.

Is This New?
by Lost in the fog init is a very long time since i was an elder and the elders textbooks have changed multiple times since then.
going back to when i was an elder, to the best of my knowledge the only way a spouse could divorce from his/her partner was porneia, if that person had sexual relations with a man, woman, child, or beast.
but it had to be proven and that's the dubious 2 witness rule.. in fact, if it was not proven and the innocent party divorced and married someone else, then they could be hauled up in front of a judicial committee and be charged with committing adultery and disfellowshipped!

Working together with a secretary--brazen conduct.
Trying to get the whole world enslaved by stealing psychic energy from the whole community and giving it to this beady-eyed monster thing to enslave the world--your duty.
Why can't they get their priorities straight? I would say that trying to enslave the whole world under communism is a bit more serious than spending the night with someone, even if "adultery" results (and especially if the spouse knows about it and is fine with it). Even a divorce without permission from the hounders would be better than working toward a communist world.

In person encouragement
by road to nowhere inwe need a beatings subject heading.. we got the talk.
if you are not sure about in person ask an elder to assess your reasons for staying on zoom.
no mention of elders asking us about meeting quality.

Why stay on Zoom? Just don't go at all. And the same with MANDATORY field circus.
Why risk spreading tuberculosis from door to door? This is especially dangerous if you are vaccinated against the wimpiest disease on the planet, and the householder is also vaccinated. No, you won't be spreading coronavirus. Just tuberculosis.

Will the faithful slave now allow birthdays..........
by BoogerMan in.....or ban jw sisters from using mascara??????
"the bible never refers to a servant of god celebrating a birthday.
this is not simply an oversight, for it does record two birthday celebrations by those not serving god.
-

WTWizard
Why would they want to allow something that is a bit of fun? Let people miss out on all those birthday parties at school, in addition to all the holiday events and just about everything else that is fun. Celebrating a birthday would cost washtowel money, plus give the children whose birthday is being celebrated something better than field circus to do.

I bet this is the start of a whole bunch of rules, which will vary in different congregations and be selectively enforced by one or another hounder. You are not in field circus? We will make sure you have no choice but to come out, and forcibly bring you into compliance (and any disassociation attempt will be thrown in the trash, at our discretion). Those useless masks will be required, not just at boasting sessions and field circus but everywhere in public.
And vaccination. At their discretion, they will impose mandatory vaccinations on individuals, congregations, or circuits. Does one of the hounders or the hounder-hounder feel everyone needs to be vaccinated against this "disease" which is about as serious as a very mild case of poison ivy at its worst? Guess what--they will issue a directive in their congregation or circuit that anyone not vaccinated is guilty of "brazen conduct". As is any individual that someone feels should be vaccinated but is not--and it takes only one to be "stumbled" to get this imposed. And no, the Amazon "shot" does not qualify as "vaccination".
And where does this stop? Field circus now (and yes, they will be pressured or forced, locally or regionally), Israel or Africa missions (some of which could take your whole life) next? And even if you don't "need" a coronavirus vaccine locally, you will "need" one to board a plane to Israel or Africa. And all it takes is someone to decide that, in lieu of disfellowshipping, they will simply hound you into forced compliance to all these rules (including 200 hours a month of field circus, vaccinations, Africa missions that take whole lifetimes, and "exemplary" rules).

3 years in the making
by Judgerussellford inthursday while i was at work, a new elder stopped by the house (almost 3 years after fading) to encourage us to go back to meetings.
said everyone misses us.
if you did, why not stop by and say hi every now and then?

Any hounder wants to pull that stunt on me? I hope you, and the whole group of hounders you send, know German. Otherwise, you will get nowhere.

And what are they going to do when a number of fully vaccinated, fully boosted people get sick with coronavirus during field circus? I suppose they are going to start hounding people to get those shots, despite they do no good.
And they will be hounding those who do not go out in field circus, including those who were inactive before they stopped. Get vaccinated (and boosted, if your last shot was more than 6 months ago), get into full compliance with the washtowel rules in their strictest interpretation, waste your time going door to door (exposing yourself to tuberculosis--I wonder how that will impact those who got their coronavirus shots), and prepare for another series of Israel missions (that segue into Africa missions that go on indefinitely). Not what I was hoping for.
Good thing I got my books on the French language on Amazon a couple of months ago. Given that they want to force me back under this pretext, it is going to come in handy.

And never mind whether or not the religion itself is the pandemic. They start hassling me to go back to their boasting sessions and in field circus, of course with a mandatory diabetes/heart attack/stroke shot for the wimpiest disease on the planet. (And the masks.) Then it's time to start me pious-sneering (of course, with me not attending those abominations for so long, they will take away my freedom to not go at all). They will, of course, use my baptism as a legally binding contract--as they see me as being too valuable for joke-hova to use to enslave the whole planet to lose just because of my worshiping the sun or posting apostate posts.
And, once back in under tight supervision, it's time to go to my mandatory Africa mission. Where--well, that is up to them. And refusing is not an option--because of that contract that was "signed" by my getting baptized under the watchful eyes of the hounders that were present. Better make sure I get more proficient in French, because half the countries they send people to are French speaking.
And never mind getting the wimpiest disease on the planet. Just going back to boasting sessions and field circus exposes you to strains of the flu that are worse, plus hepatitis B, tuberculosis, and who knows what else. And going to Africa on missionary work exposes you to yellow fever, malaria, sleeping sickness, and so many parasites that could be dangerous. Plus HIV is widespread there, and just about everyone there has (or potentially has) tuberculosis or something else that could infect me and make me suffer excessively (more publicity for the washtowel).
No, it doesn't stop at just attending in-person boasting sessions (with those vaccinations that only make the above infections even worse than they already are). I wonder how many of them can understand German. They had better--I intend to respond in German to anyone that tries roping me into getting all this filth on my soul, plus spreading it to the whole world.

Do they have to face rent increases of 50% and more? We certainly do. Do they face collapsing home prices, where big companies are buying homes out from the public so they can rent them at exorbitant prices? And what about electricity? I wonder where their rolling blackouts are. And are they going to worry about being drafted into World War III?
And the little things. Do they drive mile after mile, kilometer after kilometer, seeing whole sections of forest ruined by invasive species such as Chinese wisteria, oriental bittersweet, porcelain berry, common buckthorn, and whatever invasive vines are growing in their area? Or do they simply fly first class to get to their destinations (to heaven with their "carbon footprint")? Do they deal with stupid little issues such as all the litterbugs that ruin our streams and highways?
Not to mention the irritation of going into your favorite store and finding your items all out of stock, for months at a time. And no, not just the latest Nintendo game. Items like baby formula, toilet paper, cat food, cleaning supplies, and staple food items. And when they do come back in stock, the prices are double and the packages are about half the size they used to be. Or, the customers that blame the stock person for these shortages--which are more widespread, yet they insist that the person stocking it is to blame. And pretty soon, we will have nothing but Walmart to shop at--do they care about that abomination being the only place you can shop at, or do they shop exclusively there?

New Light, New Light!
by BoogerMan inmore accurately known as a reversal of a long held 'truth.'.
september 2022 study watchtower - par.
14 p. 18 - "in the past, we understood jesus’ words to refer to the deeds the resurrected ones will practice after their resurrection; that is, some will come to life and practice good things while others will come to life and practice vile things.

Why resurrect those practicing "vile" things in the past, just to judge them for such in the future? Either they are worthy of a favorable judgment, or it would be completely stupid to waste the time and energy resurrecting them only to have to destroy them.
