Do not underestimate the stupidity of people.
A huge percentage of people never look into/research *anything* they are told by an authority figure, or what they get in viral emails/facebook posts.
Look at what is popular on TV. Look at the insipid phone games people spend money on. Look at the most popular people on YouTube and Vine.
The next generation will be even worse.
seriously, i watched it on cnn last night.
it sounded like a wind up first of all.. .
.
so many questions...link? "going to be allowed.." was it not before? allowed by whom? "sounded like a wind up first of all?"
I don't know what to make at all of that last sentence.
Are you referring to the three week old story regarding the Satanic Temple making plans to hand out literature in Orange County Public Schools as a form of protest to other religious groups allowed to hand out bibles, etc?
i came across this video ... and watched it ... why?
i don't know really, but i found it intersting.. especially interesting was how these men used the bible, they knew their message, they used an actual hard copy bible that has obviously been studied, and the older jw man, well, he was using a tablet.
it seemed cumbersome compared to using the actual bible.
Backup as in the thing dies/wont turn on/wont connect etc etc etc.
'my tablet died. oh well, lets get donuts'

Witnessing without an actual bible to backup the tablet?
and with a bluetooth earpiece in while trying to talk?
LAAAAAAAMMMMMEEEEEE
yesterday, i got our credit card statement, and looked at the charges.
over $500 to itunes.
questioned everyone, and it's for "jewels" for a kim kardashian game my 13 year old charged.
I swear we live in a society of some sort of mass hysteria that anyone thinks its normal for a 13 year old to have a smartphone or $100 sneakers.

i am unaware of any wts statement released on this topic.

It has been stated that due to the issue of universal sovereignty, it can be concluded that apart from spirit creatures, sentient life has not been created elsewhere in the universe.
on october 2, 1914, charles taze russell, founder of the watchtower, announced that the gentile times have ended!.
tomorrow will be exactly 100 years since his historic announcment.. to commemorate this centennial occasion, i will gladly take bets in any amount of money that the world will not end tomorrow and that on friday, october 3rd, 2014 gmt, we will still all be here, for better or worse.. any die-hard jws interested in taking the other side of this friendly little wager?
still hoping the big "a" is coming tomorrow and your loving god, jehovah, is going to commit mass genocide and execute 99.9% of earth's population because they don't follow the dictates the 7 members of the "faithful and discreet slave," aka, the governing body of jehovah's witnesses?.
all throughout my life tuesdays were my meeting nights.
well tuesdays and thursdays to be more precise, when we had book study but book study was at my house so it wasn't terrible.
anyways as a kid i hated coming home from school, doing homework and then going to the meetings.
Something like The Waltons, set in another era, has a timeless quality.
Shows set in contemporary times become really dated after a couple decades; especially if they are trying to be hip or futuristic.

Ah, the pre-VCR meeting nights. I never saw any of these shows as a kid because they were always on Tues or Thurs nights
The Waltons
Happy Days
Cliffhangers
Mork and Mindy
Magnum PI
Man From Atlantis

is it worth queing two weeks for a phone?
i mean why que two weeks for something we already have a phone?.
.
No, there is no legitimate reason for anyone to stand in line for days/weeks to buy a phone. After the line is served, you can walk into the store and get one. It is complete and utter stupidity.
I believe a number of those people that are first in line are paid by Apple marketing to hype up the latest phone release.
