  Were JWs Right That There Would Be A Time When Governments Would Go After All Religion?

  by minimus in

  they have predicted this for years.

  religions of the world would become attacked by the governments.

  the only difference is when they go after jehovah’s witnesses, then jehovah god will step in and destroy the governments..

  With it's new Justice soon to be installed on the court, I'd say the new SCOTUS will be very favorable to religion for a long time to come.

  The moderator was awful and biased. Many of the questions were slanted and negative toward Trump and then had extra softball bits added when posed to Biden. He also came to Biden's defence on more than one occasion when Trump had him on the ropes and even rescued him by reminding him what the topic was about when he was clearly lost and going off in the wrong direction. ~ Simon
  

  A friend sent this to me:

  I normally don't watch porn without my wife but I think I just watched Chris Wallace suck Joe Biden's **** for 90 minutes.

  Gotta worry about Government getting its hands into religious debates.

  I think if it went to SCOTUS, they'd side for the religion. (esp after Amy is seated)

  2. experiences

  raised as a jo blow and married into it.

  37 years in it and now last 7 years out of it which feels great.. have memories of being a kid in school in the uk and just hating everything about being the jw kid.

  bullied, embarrassed in front of others and self-esteem went into the toilet.wished i was born into a different family.. what angers me is the messaging i would receive at home when i talked about being bullied.

  Amazing how liberals create the problem then cry and don't understand why there is a problem

  ron white said it best you can't fix stupid and it seems most if not all liberals are exactly that very stupid.

  in the video the minneapolis city council the very ones who voted to refund the police are whining that the crime is running rampant.who would have thunk it.

  lmao.

  Are You Satisfied With The Way The News Media Acts?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  it would be a wonderful thing if the news media tried to exercise some fairness when they report the news or editorialize on a matter.

  if the news media does not stop showing bias, i would like to see sanctions of some sort on the cnn’s of the world.

  i really don’t think they can make the media fair but it would be nice..

  Walter Cronkite was said to be the most trusted person in America.

  Try to find one -- even ONE -- media personality who even comes close.

  Everything is sensationalism to gain viewers/readers. Mainstream media is about as reliable as The Enquirer.

  so my 88 mil died and was the epitome of a faithful sister.

  my wife and her sister are members of the congregation for 40+ years.

  to be fair it was short notice but we had the showing and visitation and only about 12 out of 120 of the congregation showed up and only 1 elder!

  Obviously she didn't leave her estate to WTS or else every elder would have been there with the CO tagging along too.

  You Know You're A Jehovah's Witness When...

  by pale.emperor in

  you know you're a jehovah's witness when.... being offered a scholarship to a good university is considered a bad thing.. when you see a house you like you claim it for after your god kills the owner.. you recieve spiritual guidence from a bus driver and a window washer.. you're engaged to a person you only met 3 months ago.. your widowed mother is marrying a man she met at the convention who she's known for 2 weeks.. there's jehovah's witnesses meeting in your house on a saturday morning to talk about going out knocking on doors on a saturday morning.. a lie in on a weekend happens about twice a year.. you dont talk to your own parents/children because they have a different opinion about a magazine.. you're not quite sure what you're supposed to believe anymore.. when someone criticizes your a magazine you feel like you're being attacked.. your 3yo son owns a suit.. if you're not married by the age of 30 you're considered to be gay or something wrong with you.. (for girls) if you havent married the first or second person you've dated you're considered promiscuous or something wrong with you.. you get your scientific knowledge from a magazine written by people who've never been to college and have never actually read the source they claim to be citing.. you get excited if there's a storm or natural disaster.. you get excited when there's a terrorist attack.. you get excited when there's a pandemic.. your version of tinder is the lunch break at a convention.. your girlfriend dresses like her grandmother.. your grandparents, despite being in the same religion as you, died believing totally a different belief system..

  If the Dems had control of the White House AND the Senate, they'd nominate and approve some left wing Justice of their choice. RBG should have retired while Obama was in office if she wanted a Dem to name her replacement.
