Okay, Chris has gotta be Poe's-Lawing us.
when i was a witness i knew what my beliefs were and could defend my views, even if it really was wrong.

WTWizard - "These days, the jokehovians are such pansies that they could not defend themselves against a regular cat lick, faith wise."
Crude, but succinct.

FedUpJW - "...Two phrases that definitely DO NOT belong in the same sentence..."
Damn, beat me to it.
just sharing this for all the people who hated me saying it.
funny how truth finally comes out if those of us who care enough to become lightning rods don’t let up.
it’s taken a year, but the left wing ( not the same as a traditional liberal ) nut-job bs is becoming quite evident, and this will continue across multiple subjects as time passes.
I've always liked Bill Maher.

what’s your opinion of him right now?.
Even though he hasn’t died for my sins (yet), I’ve accepted Fauci into my heart as my Lord and Savior.
Praise Fauci!
remember when the public speaker in the kingdom hall or convention related the ten plagues and the parting of the red sea?.
the finale when jehovah closes the red sea and swallows pharaoh's entire army of egyptian men.. when i was a little kid about 5 years old and listened to this story, i would think---wow jehovah is strong.

mynameislame - "When I saw the children's version of the story of Sampson, it dawned on me that the story is really best suited to a comic book."
Noah, Samson, David... superheroes of the ancient Hebrews.
The Old Testament... the original Shared Universe.
whether they go back to door-to-door or not, what will be different?
do you think there will be a noticeable drop-off in attendance as we have read on here that many have left or faded?
