I think this in a "long shot" attempt to keep the election "undecided" (NOTE-- the decisions of the media don't mean shit) until Dec 12 when the official decision is to be made. Failure to do so, gives the constitutional authority to the US House of Representatives to name the President, but allows only ONE VOTE PER STATE. The GOP controls at least 26 of the State governments. If it actually comes to this, Trump would be declared the winner of the election.

How will the rest of the World be affected if America is run by far-left Socialist?

by pistolpete in

america was a power not to be reckoned with.

but lately it seems to be the laughing stock of the world.

what other countries are seeing on the news is riots, calls to de-fund the police, breakdown of society, and elections being over taken with fraud.

It's important that the GOP win the runoff elections for the Senate in the state of Georgia and keep control of the US Senate. Then the conservative Senate majority can put to stop many of the "progressive" ideas of the Dems. This would actually make it easier for the moderate Dems as they can blame the GOP for being unable to implement more of the crazier ideas.

If Biden wins

by mickbobcat in

if biden wins i hope trump starts the trump news network and hires out from fox the good casters.

the people who made fox what it is are starting to get sick of how its turning to the left or dark side.

this would give trump a voice and keep alive real journalism.

Politics and Hope

jw
friends

so there are a lot of atheists on here.

my question: where does your hope come from?

that the right people will be put in political positions and will eventually form a utopian society that will meet all needs and we will have equality for all?.

Collapse of JW Org - Possibly on the Horizon?

by JWTom in

this topics get a great deal of discussion here.

what i find interesting is even some of my pimi family is embracing the reality that all is not well with jw.org and that many current jws are just going through the motions due to not having a good way out of the org.

wondering what could realistically lead to the collapse of jw.org in the not distant future?

While I think there is very little (if any) successful recruitment today thanks to the availability of information on the internet, the JW's are reproducing and that seems to be their only real growth factor. Of course the Pew report indicates 2/3 of "born-ins" leave the religion. So, where is the growth coming from or is it all smoke & mirrors?

After selling $2BILLION in real estate in Brooklyn, I have a difficult time believing they are too strapped for money. Maybe the investment income coming in is lower than expenses so they are seeing their nest egg being nibbled away. Since there is nothing transparent about their money (at least in the USA), we really have no idea of knowing their financial status. but they are paying MILLION$ in child abuse settlements.
