  I think Hillary needs to retire from politics, just like her husband .

  I’m Seeing Some Trump Fatigue Out There

  i’ve heard from a few trump voters that they are getting tired of the whole trump thing.

  one person yesterday said he lies.

  another person said she hears from her clients in her business that the constant drama and push back from all sides against trump is fatiguing.. i remind people that before this worldwide pandemic, we had the best numbers in jobs.

  If only Trump hired people who were as smart and experienced as himself in federal politics he wouldn't have had to fire all those people .

  It all follows in the path of logic and common sense.

  Is Anyone Happy That Police Forces Are Being Abolished or scut??

  by minimus in

  in minneapolis, the city council has voted to abolish the police.. many cities want to either disband or defund the police.

  black lives matter and other groups have influenced citizens and neighborhoods to get rid of police and their authority.

  is anyone really supportive of removing the police or cutting out law enforcement through the budget?

  Seems a bit short sighted and nonsensical, some crimes need professionally trained individuals to carry out the fulfillment of law and justice in a fair and equal manner.
  

  What about serious crimes such as murder, rape, pedophilia, the list goes on, is Minneapolis going to hire outside the city or county ?

  Brothers and sisters wouldn't be beneficial in the eyes of Jehovah to use your credit cards to give to his life saving work rather than spending it on worldly pleasures such as food, clothing, shelter and travel ?

  Wouldn't you rather see the GB heads and their wives live in a comfortable living condition, such as a swimming pool and tennis courts, vehicles to drive and all pertaining health costs as they age ?
  

  These things do cost money brothers and sisters, so offering your financial help and support would be greatly appreciated and would show your personal devotion to witnessing work as described within the bible..

  I remember they said this in 2016, up until election night.

  But keep in mind that was before the nation has experienced Trump as a acting President.
  

  If these recent polls are correct, you should see the Democrats win in November, (Presidency, Congress and the Senate) and not particularly by a huge landslide.

  just wanted to put this out there for any lurkers.. as someone that grew up during the 70s and 80s, we were promised that we would be in the first picture long ago.

  if you are still on the fence, please let this sink in for a while..

  Both the truth and time has changed the JWS religion, the reason why this is so is related to the very core doctrines of which the faith was actually built upon ie. 1914 ,1975 " This Generation "

  Simply put the doctrines to which this faith was built around were false, maybe inspired too much from a commercial perspective for literature proliferation.

  Can you say .... " fake news sensationalism "
  

  It's funny how so many web sites create sensationalize garbage just to incite and attract viewers.

  Thats the world we live in where 50% of what gets put into news web sites is unsubstantiated garbage and the other 50% has some relevant truth to the articles.

  Hillary's political career is done, does anyone really think that she would be backed by the Democrat party after her last fail ?

  One can expect that she will poke her head up and support Biden and his choice for VP but thats it for this gal.

  A question about the contemporary generation teaching following a conversation with a JW apologist

  by Giles Gray in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i would like to ask the ex-jws on this site to put their ‘apologists hat’ back on for a moment, so that i can go through the overlapping generation teaching in an attempt to make sense of it.

  i apologise if these points have already been addressed on this site.a quick background for the reason for my request… having never confronted a jw apologist on the topic, i recently engaged with a jw regarding the official understanding of a ‘generation’ and unfortunately he didn’t have an answer to the points i was making.

  i was left a little confused as to what the official jw response would/should be.so i was hoping that my thoughts below might be considered from an apologist’s perspective.the point in question relates to this section of the watchtower article below from 2008, as well as the jw.org video explanation of the overlapping generation:---:w08 2/15[box on page 25] can we calculate the length of “this generation”?the word “generation” usually refers to people of various ages whose lives overlap during a particular time period or event.

  The overlapping generation doctrine is an attempt by the WTS heads to make ancient mythology expressed in the bible real and valid, how to lure people and put them in a state belief ?

  You bullshit and lie until it works.

  You also have to exploit their ignorance and vulnerabilities.
