I for myself think it is inhumane to have tax payers support those on death row, or even those in prison, why should we as a society have to have money taken from us to support those who have taken from us? To me it just doesn't make sense to have part of the taxes i pay to help support those in prison that means i am being punished for something I didn't do, and its taken from me/us to support those who commit crimes. I have no sympathy for them at all. You murder, steal, maim, whatever then you don't deserve a damn thing from those of us still out here in society.

I don't have them in mine, they don't really care about you as a person they care about you adding to the numbers at the meeting. You can see the non-love when tragedy strikes you, they seem to disappear and after awhile they don't even answer your phone calls which is so ltypical they think support is saying hi at a meeting. They are so delusional in their lack of thought process. They have given up thinking for themselves unless of course they want something from you.

It's all BS the way the jdubs try to show it, the Bible doesn't have scriptures for the anointed and ones for the non-anointed, its all a smoke screen for the GB and the society at large. There is no such thing as a separate anointed and the rest of the flock. It's just a type of control mechanism put out by the witnesses. Kind of like their elders being anointed by HS and of course we all know that HS appoints pedophiles and thives as elders. What a load of BS put out by them, just another means of control.

That was heart warming, and definitely brings a tear to the eye, it however wasn't the homecoming we received when we came home from Vietnam, I returned home from there 4 times and always it seemed that others wanted to denigrate us. Many of us were filled with hate for those of the hippie generation and nothing will ever make up for the reception we didn't receive or the thanks we never got, or the hate filled spite of many who seen us in uniform as we made are way home.

The WTBTS is nothing more than a money making business, deceptive to their adherents and they lie to the rank and file constantly. Charge us while telling the mayors etc. that they know it's suppose to be free, but if you find us billing our brothers and sisters for parking, then we will leave and go somewhere else where we can deceive them into making "donations" for parking. Truly a satanic bunch of people in the GB.

In Orange County, California, it is illegal to hold a religious meeting in your home.
by What-A-Coincidence inhttp://www.infowars.com/california-city-closes-down-bible-study-in-private-home/.
in orange county, california, it is illegal to hold a religious meeting in your home.. this is what chuck and stephanie fromm, of san juan capistrano, discovered when they were fined $300 earlier this month for holding a bible study class on their property.. officialdom in the county said the couple were singled out because it is considered illegal to hold a regular gathering of more than three people on private property.
officials stated that the fromms require a license to hold meetings in their home.. san juan capistrano authorities claim home bible study is not allowed because it is a church, and churches require a conditional use permit (cup) in residential areas.. the fromms face additional fines of $500 per meeting for any further religious gatherings in their home, according to the pacific justice institute.. the citys action is a brazen violation of the first amendment, which guarantees free worship without government intervention.. pji and the fromms plan to appeal a decision made by the city to uphold the fine and restriction to the california superior court in orange county, according to kcoy 12 news, a fox affiliate.. ironically, the city of san juan capistrano was founded as a mission in the late 1700s by catholic priest junipero serra.

from my understanding (listened to the local news) they were fined because the amount of people attending these "so called Bible studies" was high 20 people in some instances, which while parked in the neighborhood impinged upon space available for local residents. Zoning laws may have also been a factor. The lone factor was not a bible study it was amount of people who were attedning there. Wife and Husband both had differng bible studies on different days (i suppose).

JW Funerals
by outsmartthesystem inthis is kinda out of the blue....but was brought on by the sad announcement from jwfacts of the passing of his father.
thankfully, that funeral talk was evidently a respectable one......but i have now been to two jw funerals myself in the past 2 years.
i have been extremely dismayed by the talk given in both of them.

Like most all of you, I have never had a prayer answered, in fact this past weekend was talking with a Baptist and he was talking about prayer being a communication with God. I told him communication is at a minimum a two way thing, not one person mumbling to themselves and the conversation/prayer hardly constitutes two way communication. It takes both parties to talk. When one side doesn't one has to realize they are only talking to themselves.
Asking God through Jesus to help spouse, children, and or friends hasn't helped anyone unless one wants to read the mythology of the old testament. If God really gives a damn about anyone down here then he should make his presence known. Being silent doesn't help, and then one finds that they themselves or family and friends helped them. Not the receipient of the vocalized chanting/prayer. They/he/she sits on high and ignores.
