LMSA It's well past time to stop feeling sorry for her. Joining him on holiday mere days after he made that statement about pursuing Kim through many jurisdictions until he gets his revenge shows us what her level of complicity in all this is. I for one don’t “stand with Dijana”. She’s been playing both sides of this while privately getting several offers of monetary help since this whole thing started. She has her head lodged quite deep up her own ass and she has the perfect husband who knows how to manipulate and take advantage of any weakness.

Agreed. There's plenty of homeless exjw teens thrown out by JW parents and shunned who are far more deserving of our financial help than the Evans who have had a ton of exjw money. Far, far more than what they produce merits

This statement is not correct.

So, in practicality, this statement is a lie.

Please everyone, we need to keep our facts straight.

Fully agree Aude Sapere. It seems there are quite a few posts that are frankly weird, posting for the sake of it could come across as obsessive and just make us look bad.

Punky Try walking through Peterborough in the late hours without a stab-vest on. It's a bit stabby and robby.

😂There was a nationwide survey recently about how happy you are with where you live. Worst place in Britain? You guessed it ... Peterborough. When I was young I thought it was the most boring place in Britain with the most grumpy people!!

Kim derby isn’t on my list of places to visit so hopefully I’ll be ok

Ahhh my brother used to live in Derby. It's a bit of a dump in parts but the people are lovely. But then, I'm used to southerners so my standards are pretty low🤷‍♀️

Did anyone else notice? BBC News presenter Huw Edwards was wearing a dark suit and black tie several hours before Her Majesty's death was announced.

Diana had passed away hours before the BBC announced it. I was listening to French radio at about 2.am and they were saying she had died. I dashed into the front room, turned on the BBC on television and they were still saying she was in a stable condition🤪

I heard one of the talking heads yesterday on the BBC at the moment I think they may have been told(?). His voice dramatically changed,he got completely flustered and stopped making sense for a moment.....they were showing photos of the royals dashing up to Balmoral in a car. It took him a moment to compose himself. I found it pretty suspicious knowing what happened with Diana. I know the P.M., Opposition leader & the Speaker etc got messages yesterday morning about her - so they were told it was imminent at the very least.

Whether the illustrious historical figure or a lesser-known human, it’s always the same evil spirit creature behind lies and debaucheries; hence, Godwin’s law regularly links the two.

“You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out his desires...” John 8:44.

Er....Godwin's law has nothing to do with Satan and neither are they "regularly linked".

Not sure if refer to Hitler as illustrious, either🤔😬

Currency with the various kings, George VI, V etc were in regular use up till the 1970's when new decimal currency was introduced. They will eventually produce new designs of currency to reflect the change, but the old stuff will continue until the end of its natural life.

George

Yup. They will start to print new stamps but they will need Charles to sit for an effigy, which takes time. Money with the Queen's image will remain legal tender for some time I'd imagine. I remember seeing the odd coin with her father's head on as a kid.

Did you know Charles head will face left though? It's traditional that each succeeding monarch faces the opposite direction to the one prior.

Did we really get to page 522 before Godwin's law kicked in?

😂😂I know I know... I almost didn't post it! Strictly speaking, since it was the British who were the ones it "applied" to....does it count as Godwin's law?🤪🤔my head's spinning!🤷‍♀️

Either way you gotta admit there's a definite correlation there!

Ray Frantz Yes it is quite common for exjws to show visitors their KH.

I was going to say isn't that your kingdom Hall!

Erm ...the friend she's visiting, Lloyd🤷‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

Slim He thinks that if he lies often enough, and declares himself to be the victim loudly enough, that people won’t see that he is lying. I can see how his method might work, because you just don’t expect someone to lie so outrageously and adamantly.

Exactly! It's a bit like the old Dr. Goebbels concept of "The Big Lie"(in fact Hitler never actually used it).

Goebbels did famously accuse the British of doing so, funnily enough.

This was the famous idea:

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

It may be that given the country involved, given the rural area & given the current financial climate, I wouldn't be surprised if Cedars relationship with his lawyers isn't as straightforward as it might be in the west.

Cedars in-laws probably have deep and long standing local connections, too, so it's possible he has what we would view as a very informal agreement with his lawyers. The student also seems to be doing much of the leg work, which may get him a discount (or may be usual, I don't know).. Either way I wouldn't be surprised if things are not quite as kosher as we would expect in the west, despite the firm's qualifications being in order etc and the fact he was followed the countries legal proceedure.

For example the firm may have advised him it's all a waste of time but he's offered them a smaller than usual remittance to say nothing and allow him to 'pretend' his case has legal merit by using their "name", as such.

Just a thought.

Prostitute, is a title like apostate ,designed to dehumanise the person and remove any kind of concern about the abused person behind this title

I agree with the sentiment, raymondfrantz. However women have begun to use it again as we feel that in trying to take the judgement and power out of the word prostitute by using the term 'sex worker' , inevitably hides the terrible realities. It's built on the idea that liberal university's and some on the left claim - that the sex trade is 'empowering' for women as it allows us to have 'agency' over our bodies.

But this is a cruel myth.

The global sex industry is controlled by men for men. It's an industry built on oppression and now people have the cheek to ask women to buy into that oppression.
