  ok, so another favourite female protagonist of mine is ellen ripley, played by sigourney weaver.

  she just about overcame the xenomorph in ridley scott's alien (1979).

  and she spent most of james cameron's aliens (1986) getting over her trauma.. here's some nice footage of newt calling ripley 'mommy' .... https://youtu.be/7fjana93kea.

  ever since the annual meeting last october and the letter to bodies of elders stating that "exceptional young men perhaps in their early 20's could qualify for appointment as elders.." it even states this in the updated elders manual!

  have any of you pimo's, pimq's, or those on here with family/friends still in hear of any young men being appointed as elders yet?

  i am talking 21, 22, 23, 24 etc.

  “…Church spokesman Jarrod Lopes said otherwise — that the church does recognize abuse as a crime and that members have the right to report sexual assault to authorities…”

  Of course, he conveniently forgets to mention that members are (directly or indirectly) threatened with church discipline themselves (official or otherwise) if they actually choose to exercise that right.

  July 2023 Study Watchtower - Great Tribulation is coming soooooooooooooon!

  by BoogerMan in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  is this the "great tribulation" which jesus warned he would bring upon the corrupt christian congregations worldwide, (revelation 2:22; 7:14) or is it the same 1st century g.t.

  which he said would never occur again?

  (matthew 24:21).

  I think from their perspective, it pretty much has to come soon, just to bail them out of all the trouble they’ve gotten themselves into.

  One thing I’ve learned about the Org…

  ...when they’re obviously wrong about minor things, they (eventually, and very quietly) walk it back, and pretend they never taught the wrong thing in the first place…

  …but when they’re wrong about big things…

  …they are 100% guaranteed to double-down like a lifelong gambling addict in a Vegas casino.

  Every. Fucking. Time.

  Hah!

  Reminds me of a story told around the local congos about a suspected “demonic” rock album that was allegedly very hard to burn.

  Well, duh.

  It was vinyl.

  Someone with access to him could offer to take him out to a quiet little pub, get him good and soused, and ask questions with their phone set to “record”.

  On a related note…

  …how often has a filmmaker made a superior sequel to another filmmaker’s already awesome first film?

  You could probably count the number of times that’s happened on one hand.
