at one point the speaker said, "if your boss fires everyone who disagrees with him but promotes everyone who agrees with him, you might be tempted to agree with him just to keep your job.

My observation was that they used fear more than ever before. The videos were meant to scare us back into line. Cultiest convention I’ve ever attended.

Born ins: did you have "near life experiences"?

by truthseeker in

i recently watched the 90s movie fight club for the first time and heard the phrase "near life experience.".

for me, a different definition of this phrase would be someone who grew up in the truth and led a very secluded and restricted life (like me) but on rare occasions actually experienced something that was considered quite normal by most people.. growing up in "the troof" was depressing.

it was characterized by long periods of loneliness.

When I was in grade 3 we had a Christmas gift exchange for our class. Of course I wasn’t allowed to participate. The teacher felt sorry for me and gave me a present a small box of chocolates wrapped in plain paper.

Medical prohibitions leading to documented loss

by Vanderhoven7 in

other than general cases involving blood prohibitions...are you aware of instances of jws or exjws who have suffered health issues as a result of obedience to wts medical dictates?.

i'm thinking specifically of those who were denied vaccinations or organ transplants and i would also include those who were denied hemophelac preparations from 1975 - 1978.. any known or documented examples would be appreciated..

I would say that the jw ban on using tobacco has been a benefit to health

Farewell Liberals - Doug Ford Wins in Ontario

by Simon in

the conservatives have won in ontario and the liberals who held power there for 15 years crashed so hard they didn't get enough seats to even retain official party status.

people are sick of them and the mess they make!.

hopefully this is the start of a wave across canada that will sweep the liberals from positions where they can do harm, ending with the king of the clowns, trudeau..

We bought a pipeline that leaks like a sieve

it looks like justin trudeau and his comrades caved in to kinder morgans artificial deadline and bought the transmountain pipeline for 4.5 billion taxpayer dollars.

its not a bad deal if they actually finish the expansion.

if not we just bailed out an american company and are on the hook for 4 and a half billion.

If Justin had a pair it would be built already.

Personally, I thought energy east made the most sense. Why buy foreign oil in the east when we practically give the stuff away out here.

What’s your favorite "News" website?

by Wonderment in

news in general are supposed to be unbiased.

but given how commercial and political interests get their tentacles around them, finding a fully unbiased news website is not so easy.. here in america some would rather trust bbc or reuters than they do cnn or fox news.

any favorites?.
