Do yourself a favor - don't browse in sysadmin mode - Mkay?
by gubberningbody ini'm going to give a little advice here on safe browsing.
(i'm assuming you're a windows user).
1. the default login you should use should not have sysadmin privileges.. you need to create a user with minimal rights and absolutely no rights to install software.. you never, never, ever browse with an account which has sysadmin privileges.. if you do this one thing, you will wipe out 99.9% of your problems.. 2. switch your browser to firefox and add the plugin noscript.

...Or you could just install Malwarebytes, Adware SE, Spybot, and Combo Fix, learn computer skills, and keep your self safe with browsing as a system admin. Really.... no virus is unstoppable. With those three things, added with, Hijack This (Registry Cleaner,) they can all be wipped out. Even rootkits. I've cleaned 1000 trojans off my sisters comp in one time before.
But only use HJT...if you know what you're doing. It's only the illiterate that suffer computer damange. Also, P2P is safe. Torrents forever!

So close, they're saying it every meeting?
by CrimsonAshes inwas listening to the meeting on the phone tonight, and the second half, after the song, one of the announcements said about the gt.. at first i thought they said "great tribulation one day away," but then i listened to the rest, and realized it was "great tribulation is one more day near.
" either way....they're saying it at every meeting now?
and the reason it was an announcement was because they were announcing baptisms.

Either way....they're saying it at every meeting now? And the reason it was an announcement was because they were announcing baptisms. (Since when is that said at the regular meeting?)
I think it was something along the lines of, "In view of the Great Tribulation being one more day near, we have two new baptsisms to announce," Or something like that. Was in the kitchen, raiding the fridge when it was said, and couldn't hear very well.

The thing is, the sender IS a devoted JW. They tweet scriptures and articles like crazy, and send many many emails of articles. That's why it's so weird.

2 Year Meeting After Armageddon (Circulating Email)
by CrimsonAshes indear brothers,.
please include the reminders below in the nro (new resurrected ones).
2-year review meeting.

Got this in an email.
Dear Brothers,
Please include the reminders below in the NRO (New Resurrected Ones)
2-year review meeting. Thank you.
WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD! We hope your stay here has been a pleasant one.
However, to assist in making your new life pleasant and enjoyable, please
consider the following reminders.
1. With regards to food, we must ask you newly resurrected ones to please
get over the idea of eating meat. This is particularly important in view of
all the animals walking around now. Thus…
2. NO, you cannot have a hamburger, filet mignon, or baby back ribs. Look,
everyone is going through adjustments to be here, it's not just you. After a
while, you will get used to vegetables--really.
3. Many of you are anxious to get in touch with long lost loved ones, but
you're going to have to be patient. There is no email anymore. So those of
you who were alive in the last days of the old system, you're just going to
have to rely on word of mouth and/or letters for now. You can't update your
Facebook page, nor tweet "I can't believe I made it!" on your Twitter
account either.
We don't have any plans for anything resembling the Internet until at least
after Satan is removed from his abyss and destroyed, so you're looking at
least 1,000 years minimum. (Now you can appreciate how everyone else lived
before the 1990's.)
4. While we're speaking of technology, for those of you who lived in the
20th century, television is also out for now. (Do you know how ugly the New
World would look with antennas sticking up all over the place?) Have you
ever seen a satellite dish in any of the Society's New World illustrations?
Didn't think so.
We promised to get you here, and you made it - that's great. But you're not
going to be able to catch up on all the movies, sporting events, or Star
Trek episodes that you missed after you died. And don't even THINK about
reality shows.
5. One of the blessings of the New World is peace with the animal realm, so
it is sad that some are engaging in practical jokes.
For example, on at least three occasions, friends have evacuated the water
and beaches of the shore when someone on land thought it would be funny to
yell "Shark!" This put a good scare in everyone until they realized that
sharks are now as timid as minnows. It may have been funny watching your
brothers and sisters run from the water, but this isn't loving, is it?
6. In the Old World, when asked, "What do you want to do in the New World
",
almost everyone has said, "learn to play an instrument." Therefore, many
are doing this today.
Please…we beg you -- JUST STOP.
Realize that you're not a very good musician. There are other talents you
could pursue at this time. Music is just not one of them.
However, if you insist on continuing, could you at least keep it down
please? Close the windows? Shut the doors? Practice in a closet?
Someday you may perfect this. But you will not be perfect for at least
1,000
years and neither will your playing.
Consideration people, that's all we're asking.
7. Finally, we're all happy to be here in the New World and there is much
work to do. Everyone is required to work, and we do have sufficient time
off
to rest and recreate. Yet, it has been reported that some brothers have
attempted to call in and take SICK DAYS.
Brothers, there are NO SICK DAYS. This is the New World , remember? Does
the
expression "No resident will say, 'I am sick.'" sound familiar?
You may have been able to use this excuse for your worldly employer, but it
won't be accepted here.
Now, we hope everyone will cooperate with these points for the benefit of
everyone. -

Other than their official site? If it's not on the news, it can't be that big of a deal.

Has anyone found the actual news article that this is from? I've searched google all day and came across nothing. I tried all kinds of searches and word order. Nothing at all. Is it a big movement? It can't be, if it's not even in German news. Where'd they find out then?

Legal action against the Pope?
by behemot inrichard dawkins planning to have pope benedict arrested over 'crimes against humanity'richard dawkins, the atheist campaigner and evolutionist, is planning to have pope benedict xvi arrested when he comes to britain later this year for "crimes against humanity".dawkins and christopher hitchens, the atheist author, are seeking advice from human rights lawyers as to what legal action can be taken against the pope over his alleged cover-up of sexual abuse in the catholic church.. it emerged this weekend that in 1985 when he was in charge of the congregation for the doctrine of the faith, which deals with sex abuse cases, the pope signed a letter arguing that the good of the universal church should be considered against the defrocking of an american priest who committed sex offences against two boys.. dawkin and hitchens believe he should face criminal proceedings because his "first instinct" was to protect the church rather than the children in its care.. they are hoping to exploit the same legal principle used to arrest augusto pinochet, the late chilean dictator, on a spanish warrant when he visited britain in 1998.. the pope will be visit london, glasgow and coventry, during his time in the uk between september 16 and 19.. this is a man whose first instinct when his priests are caught with their pants down is to cover up the scandal and damn the young victims to silence," dawkins, who wrote the god delusion, said.. this man is not above or outside the law.
the institutionalised concealment of child rape is a crime under any law and demands not private ceremonies of repentance or church-funded payoffs, but justice and punishment," hitchens, author of god is not great, said.. their lawyers, barrister geoffrey robertson and mark stephens, a solicitor, believe they can ask the crown prosecution service and that pope benedict will not be able to claim diplomatic immunity since he is not the head of a state recognised by the united nations.. there is every possibility of legal action against the pope occurring, said stephens.
geoffrey and i have both come to the view that the vatican is not actually a state in international law.

But Robertson is a UN Judge. Doesn't this mean it's the UN wanting the Pope arrested as well? Start of the Great Tribulation?
