  i hope that within the next several months we will get back to some type of normalcy.

  will restaurants ever get filled again?

  will you ever be able to sit at a bar or go to a concert or broadway show?.

  One should have a sense of empathy to those who lost their jobs, particularly in the air line industry, the cruise lines, hotels, retail, wholesale outlets and hospitality etc.

  There is no doubt there is going to be an ongoing economic down fall out this whole affair, which may take awhile to fully recover.
  

  My suggestion to those who lost their chosen jobs and dont see them coming back for the foreseeable future, is quickly get trained into another profession.

  Invest yourself toward something that is active, keep your eyes and ears open.

  Sure are a lot of bent and twisted perceptions on this thread concerning Covid-19.
  

  The fact is governments foreknew that this virus was both deadly and contagious so they were compelled to act toward the protection of the population to which they govern.

  Lets imagine for a second that governments did establish restrictions or shut downs ... ????

  You yourself would most likely have to suffer the death of one your own family members.

  You would most likely see bodies wrapped up laying on the street as you went to work or to shop at your local stores.

  Covid-19 death rate

  by BourneIdentity in

  2. current

  worldwide numbers – 13%.

  deaths: 359,791. recovered: 2,399,247. active cases 3,044,378. we need to throw out the active cases in our calculations, as we don’t know if those people will survive or die.

  deaths + recovered is 2,759,038. deaths/deaths + recovered = death rate.. 359,791/2,759,038 = 13%.

  Any thoughts why world governments imposed such measures?

  Answer = Satan messing with humanity again

  When is Jesus going to kick his ass off the earth ?

  It couldn't come soon enough in my opinion.

  Resurrection, Reconstruction? What is it? It never made sense to me. Your opinion.

  by Wasanelder Once in

  i never had much faith in whatever resurrection was.

  what appealed to me about jw doctrines was the rejection of the "it's a mystery" defense of the indefensible.

  when i would ask how going into non existence could be reversed when all the atomic parts of who we are had been scattered for thousands of years, the answer was "jehovah can do anything".

  If you deeply think about resurrection of all of humanity while no one dies for a 1000 years is irrational and physically impossible.
  

  Its a nice ideological dream though, the kind of dream some ancients may have thought up for their gods to accomplish for their devoted worshipers.

  Now we just have to find some supernatural gods to do it.

  For now we are on are own.

  Yes certainly so if there is vaccine developed which would block out any reoccurring infections.

  Until that happens we have to play it cautiously safe.

  There is the potential for humanity it built up immunity to the virus on its own which could make infections eventually rare .

  Why is this an APOSTATE site?!?

  by LaraK in

  1. forum
  2. suggestions

  i made a big mistake when signing up at this supposed website for jehovah's witnesses.

  after reading some things on this site it has become apparent to me that this site is nothing put another pathetic site for apostates: people who betrayed jehovah, left the truth, and are so bitter about their experiene in the truth, and they are angry just like satan because they know they will very soon be dead at jehovah's hand!.

  this website should be renamed something more fitting like "satan's playground" or a similar name that would get across the message of your site.. sincerely,.

  One of the crippling things that happened about this contagious virus was that China was wasn't being openly honest to its effects toward the rest of the world's population, particularly to people who had traveled to Wuhan and there abouts.

  That oppressive lack of information resulted in a lot of unpreparedness and accumulated amount of deaths to many countries.

  The world wide ignorance about this virus was factually apparent, since its outbreak we've learned a lot in the past 3 months .
