Just like the media covered up Obama's gaffs.

Imagine the next Saturday Night Live if Trump had said it.

May 2020 Study WT - more convoluted false prophesying
by neat blue dog inthe first two study articles of the latest wt raise the usual sense of urgency with more of the same theological quackery russell would be proud of.. first up, something we've always known, the embarrassing admission that jws think they are the center of the universe:.
even though god’s servants make up only a small portion of the world’s population, they are often at the center of major world events.
because satan and his entire system have one prime objective—conquering those who serve jehovah .

I think most JW's have no idea what is going on in their religion. Most never open the WT (or pull it up on their iPad) until it's time for the meeting. Then they kinda "snooze" through the meetings and miss most of it. Especially true the brothers who are handling "responsibilities". They are barely in their seats.
But, most JW's don't give a ratsass about the doctrine. It's their network. Their Social Club. They just drink the Koolaid and follow the Piper.

Biden supporters better look closely at his pick for Vice President because Sleepy Joe will be over 78 when he is sworn in (if he wins). Biden's physical health seems better than his mental health. When you watch him on stage the man is clearly "slipping" mentally. If he doesn't die in office, I wouldn't be surprised to see the 25th Amendment invoked because of his "dementia" or some inability to serve.
Sanders would be well over 79 years old, and just had a massive heart attack and refuses to release his medical records pertaining to his recent health. Seems to me he has a damn good chance of croaking in office and his VP having to step up to the plate.
Trump will be (only) 74 years old at his 2nd inauguration (if he is reelected) but seems to be in good health.

Donating Blood a Disfellowshipping Offense?
by HiddenPimo inwhen i served as an elder i never heard of this scenario presenting itself - giving blood.. has anyone heard of a judicial case where a person donated and was disfellowshipped?
are there any references to this in the jw publications, manuals, handbooks?.
not so hiddenpimo :-).

This would be "delicate" ground to tread.
For example, if you had a family member that required Factor VIII (for clotting), could you donate your blood to help contribute to their needs. Factor VIII is one of the JW "fractions" that is acceptable. I cannot image Red Cross giving you any kind of "guarantee" that your blood would go to that cause.

Funny how these in it to the end Dems are dropping out, could this be why?
by JimmyYoung ini am wondering if the dems dropping out who were "in it to the end" are dropping out because of having to shake hands and go into crowds with the corona virus spreading.
hmmm.

"Why drop out the day before Super Tuesday?"
I think the democrat party leadership cut deals with Amy and Pete. Pete won't be elected for any Statewide office in his home State of Indiana. He's likely been offered something in Biden's cabinet. Amy might even be looked at as VP. She'd pull in the women's vote (and she doesn't have the ABC poison -- Anybody But Clinton), and what a great spot to find yourself in after the election -- VP for a 77 year old President with dementia. If Biden doesn't die, they'll probably use the 25th Amendment against him.

If the men on the governing body can't get this issue right, how can they be trusted with anything?
Seems that applies to most things JW (doctrines, prophecies, policies, etc).

JW's and Retirement Planning
by JaNayNee inmy mother is a jw.
i studied for several years and ultimately could not digest what was being served.
for the last 20 years my mother has done nothing to prepare for retirement.

You are so right!
Many, many elderly JW's end up shitouttaluck when they reach retirement age having done little or no planning because they were supposed to be in the Panda Petty Paradise by now. But the Congregation will help them -- help them apply for food stamps and Medicaid and any other free benefit that the Wicked Worldly Government will give them.

The overlapping generation was the final straw but there were lots of dominoes before that.
Once one starts to fall, it isn't long before the whole thing collapses.

When many of the GB are dead in 10 years.............
........there will be a new batch of younger delusional egomaniacs who sip the wine (and drink the Koolaid) to take their place. They'll be some more New Light to "explain" why Joe Hoover has allowed this old system to go on.
BUT ARMAGEDDON IS STILL "RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER"!

The local JDubs are just falling all over themselves about this GREAT WT article. The "Brothers" have identified the King of the North. None of them old enough to recall the "Your Will Be Done" book from 1958. It said the same thing. Then WT reversed it (when USSR broke up) and said they didn't know. Now it's back to being Russia (the old USSR) because they're persecuting JWs.
You can't make this shit up.
