  playing dirty as it can, trying to silence dissenters.. the john cedars channel on youtube has been taken down after the posting of a video critique of regional (district) convention leaked videos.. sounds like something putin would do in russia.

  you know what they say, birds of a feather fly together--what a murder of crows all of'em!.

  $5.5 Million to be transferred to World Wide Work from Assembly Hall fund

  by Sour Grapes in

  2. experiences

  a letter was read tonight in our kingdom hall that the money that the circuits in the indianapolis area had in savings to build a new assembly hall will now be transferred to the www to build kingdom halls in lands where they are needed and a new assembly hall for us will not be built.. we had a beautiful assembly hall near downtown indy that was paid for.

  it was sold a couple of years ago.

  we were promised a new assembly hall to be built in southern ohio near the indiana border but they can kiss that goodbye now.

  I've thought about this and I could see the WT hierarchy following some script from consultants to build up a huge endowment that would minimize the effect of recurring litigation and payouts and also forecasts of decreasing contributions.

  That would need to be one 'uge endowment, eh?

  Engaged Couples Living Together

  by ILewis in

  2. relationships

  my question is this.

  is it wrong for a jehovah's witness to allow an unmarried couple to live together under their roof?

  same room, same bed, they are allowing full on cohabitation.

  There once was a time when Boozer Rutherford told JW's all a couple needed was to cohabit together. No need for ceremony or legal paperwork.

  Boy oh boy how things have changed, eh?

  Rolf Furuli Mental Health

  by oppostate in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  rolf foruli, scandinavian academic and watchtower apologist, has come out with a video at times quoting figures on mental disease from the 1930's and 40's, in support of his allegation that the rate of mental problems and depression is actually only a third of what it is among the entire population.. there are numerous holes in his presentation.

  for one, when jw's are da'ed or df'ed they're no longer considered jw's and only active jw's are part of the results.

  those who were victimized and suffered the most mental trauma as jw's aren't even considered in the studies he mentions.. watch his video: "the mental health of jehovah´s witnesses" r. furuli, on youtube:.

  The real question might be "what is Rolf Foruli's own state of mental health?"

  Is Trump Doing Better Than You Thought As President!

  Heck NO! I thought a year ago that maybe he'd be better than my low expectations would have him do, but he's dropped the bar even lower for himself.

  He continually astounds me with his ignorance and his tactless tweets. His narcissistic and grandiose self promotion is appalling. And too, his divisive policies are doing harm to the country and its people. One of the worst American presidents in history.
