Fedup - A homemade mask will help reduce the risk of passing on the virus to others but it will do nothing to prevent the wearer from becoming infected.

What Do You Think Of Fining People For Not Wearing A Mask?
by minimus insome towns in massachusetts are fining people 1000 dollars for not wearing a mask 😷 outdoors.
starting wednesday, the governor mandates everyone from 2 years of age up, must wear a mask or get a 300 dollar fine!.
of course some governors are recommending that you rat out anyone that doesn’t follow their orders.. i don’t like it!👎🏿.

A mask will not protect you unless it is of medical standard, properly fitted, changed VERY regularly, you NEVER touch it or touch your face, and you 'don and doff' it with utmost care.
In fact it will probably be counterproductive as most people will do none of the above.
However it will make it a little bit less likely that you will pass the virus on if you have it and you are pre-symptomatic or asymptomatic. I think it will be recommended in the UK if you are in a shop or on public transport where physical distancing is difficult or impossible.
I saw an elderly lady arrive home from the supermarket last week wearing rubber gloves. She struggled to get her key from her purse so she proceeded to use her teeth to pull each finger of her gloves one by one. She may as well have gone back to the shop and licked the keypad of the ATM. Gloves offer no more protection to the wearer than masks and possibly make it more likely they will get infected. Your skin is impervious to the virus.
Wash your hands, don't touch your face, respect physical distance and hope for the best.

The Motive of the Governing Body
by jwfacts ini have been quiet of late, developing other interests, happy that there are a whole group of people producing great resources.
however, i found some old emails from ray franz that promoted me to write an article that answers a question i regularly receive.
it is in regards to the motive of governing body members.

by BoogerMan ini'm wondering if the brexit pandemonium is going to continue due to the covid 19 pandemonium.. the latter may just neccessitate further "emergency laws" which suspend the december 31st 2020 divorce date..

There will be cost and benefits of leaving the world's most corrupt and unaccountable supranational bureaucracy.
There is no need to continually impute the worst possible motives to people who make different judgements.

anything. The UK electorate has shown that it will believe whatever government/MSM tells them - Boogy
The UK electorate have never heard of MSM. I'm guessing it's a Mickey Mouse American news channel.
We voted by a huge margin for a government that promised to get Brexit finished.

Signs are the UK will not agree to postpone Brexit.
If a deal can't be thrashed out by the end of 2020 we will trade with the EU under WTO rules.

The Fundamental difference between Islam and Christianity
by ILoveTTATT2 inever since i came out of the witnesses, i've become very political.. i've heard lots of arguments back and forth for many things.. in the u.s. there is the argument that it is "racist" to want to deny entry to muslims.
while there is freedom of religion, there is also the very valid concern of maintaining democracy and a justice system that is based on modern values.we as exjw's constantly quote the pew center for statistics on jw's such as: they are last place in the us for members of a religion that go to university, and second-last for poverty levels of members of a religion.
we accept those statistics and mention them as proof of how damaging the jw's are.now, let's use the same center for some very scary statistics on islam:http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/07/22/muslims-and-islam-key-findings-in-the-u-s-and-around-the-world/.

Rivergang. Christianity has many crimes in its past but it has grown up. Islam is the slow kid in the classroom.

When do the 2300 days begin?
by Kosonen inwhen to begin the countdown of the 2300 days?
to get an idea, it could be helpful to discern when those days end relative to time times and half a time.. i see a possibility that the 2300 days end the same day as the 1260 days.
that is because the woman in revelation 12 will be fed 1260 days.

I recall a previous life when numerology was so exciting.
I prefer my current life where new things I learn about the real world inspire me every day.
