  in order to save tony morris the trouble of having to get up early on sunday morning's and driving to a liquor store i was thinking that perhaps if i had delivered, to the below address, a bottle of scotch on the first day of every month.

  perhaps with a nice card attached, ' enjoy the scotch br.

  and sis.

  Why do we see only brown-colored people in USA detention centers?

  by Wonderment in

  1. social
  2. current

  why are for the most part brown-colored people held in detention centers?

  where are the rest of illegal immigrants?i think the question is valid -- as one website noted: "the u.s. government does not maintain reliable demographics of who is in immigration detention..." (https://www.freedomforimmigrants.org/detention-statistics).

  a canadian woman not too long ago said to me (spontaneously - i did not bring up the subject) the following words when she heard the live tv news broadcast, which dealt about the immigrants being held at dozens of detention centers in usa: "i am canadian, and i have been living here illegally for 29 years.

  Because the current administration is racist. And the crackdown is aimed at the southern border of the U.S.......most seeking a better safer life here are darker complected than white supremacists.

  How did Adam and Eve survive when kicked out of the Garden of Eden?

  it’s funny how a simple question like this is something that the dubs never even consider.

  my dad asked this question to a couple of witnesses and they wondered for a minute and said; .

  “i never thought about it, i’ll have to ask the elders”.

  It does present a dilemma to the 21st century mind....apparently the verdure presented sufficient grazing. We are so far removed from foraging on the land it is difficult to imagine. And we have no way of knowing what plants grew outside Eden and what their nutritional value was.....we may never know the answer to this question.

  video games sports etc

  by Akid48 in

  2. experiences

  maybe two or three weeks ago we had a meeting at the hall about sports which was pretty bad.why do they act like they support sports or videos while they say at the same time they say you can't do 90% of anything of those things,maybe the video says you can play sports here and there but then you have the social problem of brothers and sisters looking down on you for liking sports more or liking to watch sports more than take hours out of your day sitting down going over the watchtower or reading a bible.

  is it just me more i think as a teen you should at least being doing something even if its not sports maybe music or anything a teen likes,because every time i try and talk to a teen in the kingdom hall they seem off or flat out weird,its like there a different type of teen or something they cant relate to anything that you would usually talk about i don't know there just off and i feel like locking them up and locking there brains is just horrible..

  It is a healthy thing for kids to be involved in sports...it teaches self discipline, self worth and healthy interaction with peers. No kid should be expected to sit around reading WT publications or watching those inane videos or whever else in all their spare time. But the organization wants brain dead robots....lemmings.....sad way to treat energetic curious youngsters.

  Last Thursday's Meeting in Elmira, On

  by newsheep in

  2. scandals

  i had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.

  he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.

  the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.

  It's odd though in a way....the less property the corporation owns, the less the aggregate asset value...and if liabilities are not decreasing simultaneously the cash, liquidity from the selloffs can't be sufficient to offset bottom line in the long run. While i believe their accounting standards are far from ethical or transparent, this selling and downsizing seems to be a gradual liquidation of the entity...funneling the $$$ who knows where and who really knows who is benefiting from it all. I wouldn't trust them one iota. Methinks suspicious activity afoot.

  "Gem from the November 2019 WT. Reject apostate material because JWs trust in "their brothers."

  dear friends.

  i didn't post for a while, but i still enjoy the great jwn community.. just wanted to share a "gem" from the november 2019 study watchtower.. paragraph 8 from the article "are you maintaining your large shield of faith?".

  satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

  Examples of the lies.....??? Specific documentation of "apostate" statements to loyal dubs designed to cause them to falter in their ill founded faith? Its been said so many times...if faith is that shallow that it cannot withstand scrutiny, it is useless....
