DOC - "Where does an 800-pound gorilla sit?"

"during the war of armageddon, jehovah will execute people, not in a cold, clinical manner, but in a “great rage.” (read ezekiel 38:18.
) he will direct the explosive force of his anger, not against one army or one nation, but against countless individuals living across the globe.

I really wonder why in 2021, people still believe this garbage.
after a conversation with hubby l started thinking about silly lyrics in songs , of which there are many .bang a gong by marc bolan is pretty daft , although apparently his lyrics are deep .
do you have any favourite daft lyrics?
.
Pete - Cracklin' Rosie you're a store-bought woman
You make me sing like a guitar hummin'
(what does that even mean?? )
Probably use the substance 'crack' instead of cracklin'.....makes more sense to an otherwise forgettable and tepid song by an over rated artist.
A lot of these songs don't mean a thing, they're just an idiotic attempt at slam poetry or failed doggerel.
graeme hammond writes:.
in his 2002 book that examined the behaviour and practices of jehovah’s witnesses, english sociologist andrew holden devoted an entire chapter to the trauma and friction experienced by those who choose to leave the jehovah’s witness religion.
“those who do eventually break free,” he concluded, “are seldom allowed a dignified exit.”.
Why would Jehovah's Witnesses be required to shun members who disassociate themselves?
Because the shunned one can open the eyes of the Jobots. This in turn will mean less money, assets and power for the Governing Body(tm) (Pees be upon them)..
It's a draconian business practice that they pretend comes from the Bible.
witnesses never watch r movies.
but they understand references to wood chippers and banjo music.. other than that the rating system is not worldwide .
Yeah, they do. They just keep schtumn about it.
one of my jw family member had a big get together.
he invited a lot of his jw friends.
there was teenage kids, couples, singles.
Oooh, I'm not sure about all this.
From what I see here in the UK, they're still an authoritarian bunch of robot Jobots.
the watchtower—study edition | march 2020. study article 13. love one another intensely.
if we have intense “love for the whole association of brothers,” we will avoid being partial.
7 jesus urged us to keep treating others the way we want to be treated.
Jesus urged us to keep treating others the way we want to be treated. He added that we should not limit our love only to those who show love in return.
Well, that's 'disfellowshipping(tm)' out of the window then!
Of course, whilst the Governing Body(tm) (P1ss be upon them), are getting money by not allowing Jobots to talk to 'mentally diseased apostates(tm)' who can show them that it's all a scam, then the beatings will continue.
if you think it works, what is your evidence outside of possible coincidence?.
jj - Prayer is nothing more than a confessed sinner, asking God to bend the rules of the universe for his own benefit.
That's quite genius.
I find the lack of believers commenting quite telling. I don't mean that in an aggressive way. It just makes me think that if they were to consider it that it might destroy their faith. I don't really want anyone to be wounded.
The truth is out there!
do you know anything more about them?
what is their history?

St George - A list of brown nosers.
ghislaine maxwell is on trial for grooming underage girls for sex and joining in, apparently.. her defence has recently finished, with maxwell declining to take the stand herself because she, in her words, 'doesn't need to as the prosecution haven't proved their case beyond reasonable doubt'.. that's for the jury to decide, ghislaine, lol.
.
doesn't it strike you as arrogant that she can't be arsed to stand up and speak in her own defence?.
Slim - What a rotten ruling class we have. I mean the US, the UK, and the west in general.
I agree. They are all utter filth. I hate them in the truest form of hate.
I don't trust them or the police. All peas in a pod.
The Maxwell thing will be full of wheeler dealing to protect those disgusting shitebags.
