20A peek in to future of transportation
by jgnat intrends include self-driving clean vehicles and temporary leasing rather than buying vehicles (the driverless vehicle arrives to pick you up, and you drop it off at your destination).
the result?
1/8 the traffic on existing roads!

Apog, which is why I find the out-of-control driver led commercial so delightful. There will come a tipping point where the driverless is the accepted safer version. Hubby is still in dissonance mode over this glimpse into the future. I use this to my advantage. We were on an errand negotiating the usual percentage of idiots, and I asked him to imagine them replaced with driverless models? Heck yeah he was sold.

hello everyone
by purrpurr ini've been browsing the site for some time as things that the society teach just are not adding up much these days.
by exploring some of the threads on here i'm starting to see why.
a brief bio.

Excellent point about how a delayed Armageddon is pretty useless if just as many people are leaving out the back door. Imagine if no Armageddon to fear, where our scientific advances might take us in the next 15 years?

Perfect Relationship, He Still Broke Up With Me
by tiff21390 inlast month, my best friend of four years and boyfriend of six months came home from a jehovah's witness convention.
he'd been acting strangely the entire weekend and i knew something was wrong.
i initiated a discussion and he said, "essentially our relationship is wrong and i'm not supposed to be with you.

Four years is a big chunk. You deserve to have a good cry over the loss. Lots of good advice above.

The European Union is the leader in privacy protection. It was EU's insistence that led Canada then the US to legislate privacy.
I am glad you no longer feel the need to attend meetings, Kate.

Been gone a while, but feel the need for support again
by megsmomma inmy jw daughter is getting close to being 18, and she was baptized at the ripe old age of 11.... so i feel like the shunning is coming.
my sister is also on the verge of getting baptized, even though i have been able to show her many things about the watchtower proving it is full of lies, she is still falling for it.
she spoke to an elder about the shunning policy, saying she wouldn't join if she would have to stop speaking to me....and they said they couldn't make her do anything...so she took it as them not caring if she speaks to me.

LOL wait until your sister finds out the other half of "we can't tell you what to do"... but if you ignore our spirit led counsel we can reprove you, mark you, right up to shunning you ourselves.

*smile* considering all Canadians are closer to their immigrant roots and we have embraced a mosaic culture rather than a melting pot, I think our culture will do just fine. It broadens the cuisine at our local mart.
Considering how cosmopolitan New York is, I am surprised at the fear.

United Nations churches.
by Ignoranceisbliss init must of been around 1992. i remember all the chatter among local wirnesses was about how the united nations was setting up there own churches around the world.
it seems like there was even a newspaper article to back this up.
it was obvious that this is how governments would finally turn on religion.

Need help understanding scriptues in Mathew. just trying to show my wife the BORG is soooo wrong
by goingthruthemotions inas you know i am still in but have no strong conviction for this cult..but i still go because my wife is still asleep to the false teachings.
for a few months now...when we have family study it is stricly from the bible.
which is great, while we study we are taking the bible as it is, i think it is opening her eyes and how important jesus is.

The important part is that you all are thinking and questioning. It is obvious from only a few chapters that the WTS teachings, many of them, are not at all rock solid biblical.

Are you blind to the numbers? By proportion Canada is taking in more refugees than the US and we cover their health care. By the way, without immigration Canada would be in negative population growth, with the corresponding downward spiralling economy. Newcomers just don't come to a country and put their hand out. They work, dream, buy food, housing, and their first car. Oh yeah. They pay taxes too.
I know this city would be in big trouble if we sent the immigrants home. Who would serve us our fast food? Nearly all the doctors here are immigrants. We have a major labour shortage here.
