  Prince could potentially have a JW funeral

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the question is, are there two credible witnesses to the allegations of overdose?

  if i understand correctly from the research into child abuse, the medical diagnosis would not count as a witness.. was he baptized?

  what year?.

  If his will left a large chunk of money to the Watchtower, Prince should get a GB member to give his funeral talk. Which of the magnificent 7 would you choose?

  Of course it would be Hurdy. He's the one representative of minorities in the GB.

  But could you imagine rubber face Lett giving the talk?

  Or Bro. Deletion/Loesch. Maybe he'd praise Prince's Superbowl half-time show. NOT.

  Or TOMO the turd, talking about Prince's tight pants.

  Maybe Splane could let us know which music generation I mean genre Prince was in?

  Or Jackson with his wife by the side would do a dance to Prince's "I wanna be your lover".

  Or lastly, Sanderson, tablet in hand, could manage the new Funeral Talk Outline.

  They certainly have varied choices.

  A troubling visit with a satisfying end.

  so, i've been out for 2 years now.

  just picked up and walked away from the wacky religion that tried to control every part of my life through fear and guilt.

  i've been wondering as the months go by what would happen when an elder finally showed up at my door and pressed the issue as to why i ceased all activity and then tried to reactivate me.

  He said, " I should probably tell you that we can no longer go to the kingdom hall near here anymore. Our congregation and the 2 congregations sharing the hall have to start attending another hall that is 30 minutes from here. Our hall will be sold off."

  The WT bugle is sounding retreat!
  

  A wonderful sign of the times.

  ok brothers and sisters, we need to use our imagination, and you might just question mine at the end of this haha.. but how would you feel, seeing a governing body member at the same holiday resort you and your family have just checked into?

  you think this might be great to ask him questions and so approach him as he's lying on his back, sprawled on his beach towel.

  as you get closer you look at his swollen, bloated feet and think what rich, creamy, buttery foods is he eating at bethel.

  If its just one then maybe take pics, hack Jw.org and post the pics as the cover photo.

  Loyalist pub's will just say it was photoshopped.

  I love it! Good anti-witnessing.

  Makes one want to carry a tablet with a link to the ARC deposition of "leader" Jackson to show them during cart-to-cart apostate service.

  Abolitionist Harriet Tubman will replace President Andrew Jackson on the US$20 bill

  by oppostate in

  "it’s official: secretary of the treasury jack lew has announced that abolitionist harriet tubman will replace president andrew jackson on the $20 bill.

  and, while jackson will still reportedly remain on the reverse side of the bill, the move is nonetheless a momentous one.. .

  "naturally there are many people who will complain about this decision, but since tubman’s legacy leading slaves to freedom through the underground railroad is beyond reproach, these critics will most likely turn to defending jackson.

  Dr. Ben Carson:
  “Andrew Jackson was ... a tremendous president,” Carson said on Fox.
  Carson insisted that he does not dislike Tubman, an African American Civil War-era abolitionist and conductor on the Underground Railroad. But he disagrees with replacing Jackson.
  “I love Harriet Tubman,” Carson said. “I love what she did. But we can find another way to honor her. Maybe, uh, maybe, a $2 bill.”

  This guy is a real dufus! And Trump is thinking of making him Secretary of Education if he gets elected. Give me a break!

  You have no idea how hardcore Harriet Tubman really was
  

  https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/04/21/the-audacious-career-of-harriet-tubman-the-new-face-of-the-20-bill/
  

  "The woman who will be the face of the new $20 bill, Harriet Tubman, was a daring and principled fighter. Her dramatic career included defying slaveowners, smuggling dozens of slaves to freedom as part of the Underground Railroad, leading raids in the Civil War, and fighting for women's right to vote -- all of which she accomplished with a disability.
  "Basically, Tubman was as tough as nails. The former slave risked her life countless times, and even performed an ad hoc dental surgery on herself while on the road for the Underground Railroad, knocking her front tooth out with a pistol, says biographer Catherine Clinton."

  @DOC

  It's not really about political correctness. It's about having symbols of our country represent values that matter to an equal and free society.

  The age of white man oppression over women and minorities has to end sometime. I personally am all for the change of Tubman's profile (a woman recognized for her efforts to free slaves) over Jackson's (a President who connived and ordered the expulsion and forced resettlement of of Native Americans from their ancestral lands, thousands who died in what's been called the Trail of Tears).

As a preemptive rebuttal to such arguments, here are the four reasons why Jackson needs to go:"

  Any thought behind your " Avatar"

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  i think that's the correct phrase?

  anyway when i first came here, that little picture that "the rebel" hides behind, was a self portrait of a very sad man, who simply had too much knowledge.

  now i feel after 7 months here, i should repaint that " avetor" give some happiness to the eyes, and a contented smile to the lips.. in short my " avetor" was a self portrait of a man with too much knowledge.

  From the review at http://truthhistory.blogspot.com/2016/04/a-review.html

  it sure seems like Dr. C. got a lot of facts wrong!
