I witnessed (haha) very little racism or bigotry between JWs of different races. However, I think there often was the same racism/bigotry towards non-JW's of different races. It was like THESE FOLKS were OK -- BECAUSE they were JW's. Being a JW it seems, made them different (OK) from the rest of persons of their race.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is Dead
by cofty inthe so-called caliph, one of the most evil men in human history, has blown himself up along with three of his young children while being pursued by american special forces.. the ambition of isis was to expand the territory of the caliphate under the leadership of al-baghdadi to whom individual jihadists swear allegiance.
now isis have nowhere to call home and no leader.
what a pathetic bunch of losers.. they will of course appoint a new caliph and reprisal attacks will no doubt follow in western capitals by christmas but the more contemptible they appear they less likely it is that young men and women will join their delusional cause.. respect to the elite forces who hunted him down - those on the front line and the many intelligence specialists who made it possible.

It's a great "win" for Trump.
To all the hoopla that he broke precedent by not informing the Dems -- it's nothing like the lack of precedence in the "impeachment" hearings. I think many Americans see this as the ultimate example of "playing politics" and so many of them are not smart enough to realize that that is what got Trump elected -- People are tired of the politics! Clearly Trump is NO politician.

Do You Think That Belonging To Certain Political Parties Suggests You Are Uneducated or Poor?
by minimus ini hear some people say that if you are a republican or democrat that you must not be very educated, intelligent or monetarily stable.
.
do you think it’s proper to paint any person as less than favorable because of their political opinions?

I recently visited Europe. Spoke to many folks, locals and fellow tourists. NOT ONE PERSON likes Trump
No one I know from Europe liked George W. either.
One said that they forgave us for electing him the first time, but re-electing him was the final straw.

Murmurs from the locals
by Moster ini was ministered to by several different people at a jw funeral i attended today.
one older lady said to me, "you know the end is right around the corner, just look at the state of the world today".
i said, "well yes but that has been the mantra for decades, remember 'stay alive till '75'".

Waton..........that's all "OLD LIGHT". When JW "prophecies" don't prove to be true (in other words, when they rpove to be LIES), then they turn to their NEW LIGHT (aka New Lies).

Mass, NY, NJ, MD, Commiefornia, Oregon, and parts of Washington state are NUTS!!!! Might as well break off from the Union
That would likely take an Constitutional Amendment. Do ya think we can we get that on the ballot?
It would sure give the rest of us some "questionable" neighboring "countries".

I do think having any kind of faith in any politician (or either party) might suggest you are uneducated or poor.........

WHO GIVES A FLYING F**K?
Ok. Sorry. In the past, I would have devoured this kind of post here. Now, I just don't give a sh!t.
PLEASE tell me that this means I have "moved on" from worrying about refuting JW bullshit?
I JUST DON'T CARE ANYMORE!
Don't you realize there are more important things to deal with? The earth is going to melt down or burn down and all life will be lost if we don't all go out and buy electric cars, and quit eating beef (because cows fart, ya know), etc
Already I changed DOC (Desirous of Change) to DOUBTFUL of Change. I guess I need another meaning for the acronym -- DON'T (?) CARE, Maybe just "DC"?

I put off ready "Combatting......" for a long time. SO SORRY THAT I DID THAT!
It makes JWs look like the Poster Child for Cults! There is a "plan". There is a "strategy". It absolutely CANNOT be a coincidence that JWs perfectly align up with everything single identifying factor of a Cult! Those at "the top: know EXACTLY what they are doing to control the masses of Sheeple.
Don't put if off. Order it now!
