i’ve been shunned for many years so her passing doesn’t really constitute a loss for me.
her and her husband made it clear many years ago they didn’t want a homo in their family.
request granted.

i have been having issues with coons.
they are eating my cat food and being a pain in the ass.
i have live trapped some but these last few trip the live trap and do not get trapped then steal the bait.
Rockem-Stinging them with a bb gun might do the trick to move them along to another yard without killing them.
Just a thought.

if it does not have hips it dies if i see it.

Just like satan in the garden of eden. If only Eve did that, we wouldn’t be in this mess.....
i thinks so.. not only jws have hate the catholic church.
i see it as a world wide thing.
many hate the catholic church with out even truly looking into it for themselves, but rather form their opinion based on other peoples directions.. what say you?.
Well, since the Catholic church seems to hide and allow their Priests to molest little boys, I believe all the hate is justified.
Hard to argue against that opinion. Worth mentioning that such behavior is not a teaching of the Catholic church, but I hate that truth that Bishops DID hide their pedo priests in a lot of communities!
Thumbs upon that one from me Dr Who

Another reason [to hate the Catholic church], is charity.The Catholic Church invented it.
Not for loved ones, sure, that kind of charity has always been there.
But ,when was there charity for all? Never. That is before the Catholic Church.
Family, friend or enemy does not matter to the Church that Jesus started.
The Catholic Church is by far the largest charity in the world. They educate, cloth, feed, shelter, heal, and provide for more people than any other organization, government or religion. And it doesn't matter who you are.
Just another factoid.

i just read the scripture then went and checked in thier older bible and it read the same so i check the greek interlinear and yes they changed john 3:16 .
the verse reads "all who believe in him should not perish but have everlasting life" the cult version says "exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life".. so not only do they say one must exercise faith meaning having to work for it but also they changed should not perish but having everlasting life to might not be destroyed again making a caveat where one does not exist.
just to add to the point verse 18 in both bibles says the one having faith is not judged, totally blowing up thier version of 16 but of course they change 18 to say exercising faith too but it makes little difference, since it says not judged.
The corruption of the Holy Scriptures is again accelerated by the WTS...
Soon 'Jehovah' will be replaced by the 'Governing Body'
wbts rewrites/carefully edits their own history.
since 2005, i have been through a lot with with wbts.
recently i came across a suggestions that they will start denying that they ever said satan was hurled out of heaven in 1914.. in my experience, it is one doctrine many ordinary members are clear about - you ask them what supposedly took place in 1914 and they'll say, "satan was hurled out of heaven, therefore world war i started.".
Did Jesus inspect all the christian churches in 1914 too. Didn't he say 'only the Watchtower Tract Society is giving the world my spiritual food in due time' too?
Didn't blah blah blah blah..we're a bunch of liars...hahahaha

A teaching that will not be changed.
One of the major linch pins that if gone would end the religion.
There will not be any major change in their teaching, it will just not be spoken/written about anymore
personally i think it is 1914 and the following " this generation " doctrine.. this particular doctrine went right against jesus's own words of " no one knows of the time not even he " .
he also admonished his true followers to not set a time upon god's own sacred time .. the leaders of the wts even back to the late 1800's set a time calculated on their own theology 1874 being the first time set and proclaimed by c t russell, also proclaiming 1914 would likely be the year of the final day of judgment armageddon.
all throughout the 20th century the wts held to this doctrine but was eventually revised of course when it was realized this generation had passed away who saw the events of 1914. .
What is the biggest doctrinal mistake made by the Watchtower /JWorg. ?
How about basing their whole business model around a Catholic book
but i believe in jehovah god, and i read the bible every day.. i believe the bible is god's word.
and i pray to god every day.. it's somewhat off topic.
but i'd like to find a friend who loves the bible and want to read and find the truth of the bible together with me.. i live in japan and i am a japanese.
