Back To The Future

i started to post this to "gorbatchov" question.. the world will not be the same.

we all know this.. the voice of "christmas future".

the governments will infuse trillions of dollars into the corporations, not its people.

Other than staying at home (Cabin Fever!!) not much has changed.

We're not out of TP or bleach and thank Dog, we're not out of booze.

Running business things from home (as I usually do). Employees all deemed "essential" and everyone is working. Seems that there are A LOT of exemptions for "essential" services. All of our children apparently have "essential" jobs as they are all working too.

Just saying.............

But I really don't see this being over by Easter!

After the Covid-19 crisis: what will happen?

by Gorbatchov in

what will happen after the covid-19 crisis?.

- economy with all the stand still corporations, people without work and mass injections of support money?.

- politics with the end of globalisation, closed borders and new geopolitic friends (italy / china russia), lack of support and working together in eu and local politics, did the current politician the right thing?.

DesirousOfChange

I see one big change coming to us, the world as it was will not return.

That's what they said about 9/11. And in fact there are some things not the same, such as air travel with TSA screwing things up, but in reality, things are pretty much business as usual. So it will be after COVID-19.

Do You Support Nancy Pelosi and The Democrats Way of Working On The Coronavirus?

i think the american people need to get help on the coronavirus and leave it at that!

forget about adding things from the liberal agenda!

the house and the senate need to work together now to do their jobs..

DesirousOfChange

It's all about partisan politics!

Both parties would rather see the country crash and burn than let the opposition get credit for anything good.

Happy 20th Birthday to JWD / JWN

by Simon in

as sgt pepper sang, "it was 20 years ago today" ... that i made my first post on my first forum.. i obviously didn't put too much thought into what it should say although i must have burned 45 posts testing things and was too lazy to reset the counter before going live (?):.

https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/46/welcome.

but somehow, it worked and grew and here we all are, 20 years on.

Simon: I think you've saved the lives of many people -- or at least "the rest of their lives"!

I'm sure there is a voodoo doll of you at Warwick full of pins & needles.

Simply cannot say THANKS! enough for all you do.

Jehovah's Witnesses Mistaken Ideas About What The Bible Teaches

by Vanderhoven7 in

let's add to the following list.

jws are mistaken when they believe the bible teaches:.

1. that their leaders somehow represent the faithful and wise servant.

DesirousOfChange

To be fair, many religions have the same or similar mistaken ideas.

Nearly all believe they are THE True Belief (even though they will be ecumenical when necessary for appearance).

Some have some ideas that are perhaps even stranger than the JDubs, Can you say "magic underwear"?

If "Zoom" is All They Have Now.....

think of the possibilities, if this technology is all they have to stay in touch with their minions think of the wonderful possibilities..... 1. think of what just one molotov cocktail or flame thrower could do to their broadcasting room and the "world wide work.

2. or better yet if "v" (for vendetta) hacked into their broadcasting system...and told them the real truth.

3. just one rogue bethelite could have all kinds of fun..... i can dream can't i.....

DesirousOfChange

The COVID-19 crisis has JDubs fired up right now. They see it as a sure sign that The End(™) is near. Very, very near. Even many with lingering doubts, those who keep one foot in the door, will step in a little farther right now JUST IN CASE this pandemic leads into Armageddon.

Once it passes, things will go back to "normal" and they'll see it was just another event on the world scene and apathy will again set in.

Construction Projects During "The Final Part of the Final Part of the Last Days"

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

luke 21:11 11 and there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.. .

mr. lett: if these are true signs of the last days, why does the society continue these expensive building projects?

why not delay these projects and help all italians who have lost their jobs and are struggling financially during this pestilence?.

Generally Speaking Do You Trust Your Government?

by minimus in

jw
friends

as a us citizen, i am usually a bit skeptical of what comes out of the mouths of government officials.

often they may speak the truth but i’m not convinced of whatever they are saying as being 100% true.

do you believe your government implicitly?

DesirousOfChange

Our politicians will tell you what they think you want to hear.

How can you tell when a politician is lying? Their lips move.
