i have to admit, this president can stir up shit.
.
other than some people who failed 10th grade or have a confederate flag on the back of their pickup trucks, who actually likes him?.
What scares me is the lack of choice. Are these two clowns the best America has to offer?
As a Canadian, the meltdown of our closest neighbour and trading partner concerns me and affects my bottom line.
I swear we are living in a computer simulation. You can’t make this shit up.
many of us have watched the gb #4 update.
most of us jumped for joy when they basically said that there will be no meeting in person for a long time to come.. one aspect we overlooked was how hard they hit home the "love of neighbor".
how this "love" is what makes a true christian and as a result our love for our neighbors will motivate us to stay at home.. well now they released a letter that is instructing all kh's to view this video during their local needs part.
We don’t have the camera or mic on when we zoom. Mrs Hoser doesn’t care for people looking inside our house.
it’s no secret that the mainstream media runs the show and that they can’t stand trump.
for good reason because trump has been demeaning to journalists on several occasions.. life lesson for donald trump: don’t make fun of people that have the power to destroy you!
nobody likes getting laughed at.. don’t get me wrong.

Don’t get me wrong. The Coronavirus is a real thing. People have died, some in my own community.
The liberal media isn’t letting a good pandemic go to waste. They are simply tired of dealing with Donald Trump and won’t let up on the covid news coverage until he is out of office.
that was this weeks video.
but the elders cant say: liberry, pitcher, aks, pronounsiation, mono-tone-us, unconscience.
But didn’t tight pants Tony say that we were the thinkingest people on the planet?
tonight there was an 8 minute segment allocated to reporting on jws regarding child abuse and the redress scheme.
it was presented by lisa wilkinson for the project.the australian branch has issued a statement to the show advising that they will not be joining the scheme.. they state:.
statement from the jehovah’s witnessesthe religion of jehovah’s witnesses does not have the institutional settings that the voluntary national redress scheme is designed to cover.therefore, the ministry for families and social services has been advised that jehovah’s witnesses will not join the scheme.jehovah’s witnesses have responded and will continue to respond directly to individual claims for redress in a caring, fair, and principled manner, taking into consideration the unique circumstances of each claim.. https://10play.com.au/theproject/articles/statement-from-the-jehovahs-witnesses/tpa200621ycelq.
Covid 19 did the organization a favour. If they are forced to sell off the limited assets they have in Australia it will be a good time to switch to an internet religion.
so a co just said in his talk yesterday that anyone that doesn't follow the branch's covid19 "suggestions" is disobedient and the type of person that won't survive armageddon.
didn't the letter say that each head of household would choose for himself how to apply the "suggestions"?.
the funny thing is there are other countries where none of these "suggestions" have been given..
It’s not so much about obedience, it’s about image and liability.
As a business owner I am responsible for the safety of my customers. If someone picks up covid and they trace it back to my office I’m in deep doo doo.
Thats why the Kingdom Halls aren’t opening any time soon.
the point of the letter was how many are feeling disappointed these days.. no circuit assembly, convention, how we can't fellowship at the k.h.
disappointed we might have had a love one die, etc etc.
he then goes on to write about how disappointed jehovah must have felt when his first human creation rebelled.
"I don’t know about KHs, but I can see them panic selling Assembly Halls first."
Commercial real estate is gonna be worth SFA because of Covid. Looks like Jehovah doesn’t know how to time the real estate market.
I think that what has needed to be said on here has been said. Unless there is some breaking news that tony Morris was arrested for soliciting a prostitute it’s all about politics.
I like talking politics because as a jw I wasn’t allowed. We had to remain neutral to the world and talking trump or Trudeau was just really frowned upon when we were in the “truth”

Ten bucks says that, deep down, the vast majority of rank-and-file JWs aren't really feeling all that disappointed.
The point of the letter is to remind them to feel guilty about not feeling disappointed.
I hadn’t seen any Jw’s from our hall in person for two months.
I’ve seen two in the last two days.
First one was in my office buying something and I mentioned he was the first witness I’ve seen since the lockdown. We talked about zoom and when we will be allowed to go back to the hall. He told me some are opening saying they are never going back because they prefer the zoom meetings. These seem to be older ones as they are simply afraid of catching covid.
I was at Costco today and saw one of the older sisters wearing a mask. She said she can’t get on zoom consistently and misses a lot of the meetings. She seemed paranoid but in These crazy times paranoid is the new normal I guess.
my parents are in there late 60s, they have a net worth of 2 to 3 million dollars and a 2500 sq ft home.
my dad works a hobby job at a service station for boredom reasons.
it’s a kiosk type between glass but it does require some contact with the public.
My parents are in their 80’s and are still running their business. I figure what the hell Whatever keeps them happy. They travelled a bit when they were in their 50’s and 60’s but after 9/11 there was a lot of bullshit involved in travelling internationally and they don’t really socialize a lot so they just keep doing their thing.
