liam...your entire post is a LIE. The 2024 tariff on Butter levied by the Canadian government was 11.38 cents per kilogram which is about 5.2 cents per pound. Don't take my word for it. Here is the tariff schedule from the Canadian government that you can check out for yourself. cbsa-asfc.gc.ca The 300% tariff only kicks in if more butter is imported than was agreed upon by the two countries. In 2024 Canada imported over a Billion dollars in cheese, milk, cream, butter and whey from the United States.

Trump Tariffs started today, Some Countries Caved in early morning.
by liam inusa politicians in charge of the economy for the past 50 years were too stupid to understand how the economy works.
this just proves my theory, that an education on the top tier universities just sucks and means nothing in the real world, unless its in the stem education.
for 50 years usa had zero tariffs on other countries.

New GB member Judy Jedele critizing Job's "humility" while wearing $20,000 Rolex, gold cuff links, coloured suit. Incredible!
by WingCommander ini swear, you can't make this shit up!
for years and years growing up in this cult, i had to constantly hear from my parents, from the stage, in the literature, about "keeping your eye simple", not being "materialistic", not "having a showy display of one's wealth.
" of course, this never seemed to apply to the wealthy business owning elduhzzzz who ran and lorded it out over the congregations, but i digress.

"What's your point?" My point is that in 35 years of watch collecting I have held dozens of real and fake Rolex's in my hand and have sold both. Only a FOOL would make a 100% positive claim of the genuineness of a watch without having it in their hands in order to examine it. Are you referring to me a Watchtower apologist? If so, that would be another ignorant and unfounded claim.

I am a 35 year member of the National Association of Watch & Clock Collectors. It is impossible to be 100% positive of the make, model and current value of any watch by a photograph. Without the watch in hand, it is pure conjecture that Mr. Jedele is wearing a ROLEX.

Her Handbag Told Her to Stop Preaching
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/qzpj3kzgidi?si=x1xazpqmed1zq5h2.
ah, yes, another shining example of the watchtower’s *unmatched* commitment to rational thought.
forget logic, science, or even basic common sense—just blame that suspiciously cursed handbag for all your troubles!

Oh boy! Demon stories...these are always great fun. In the late 70's after I left Bethel, I had a Witness girlfriend. Unknown to me, she suffered from anxiety attacks and depression. I bought a solid gold antique watch for her and had it completely refurbished at considerable expense. She gave it back to me because her elder father had determined that her anxiety attacks were actually demon attacks from the watch. By the way, her anxiety attacks did not resolve. Perhaps the demon attacks were caused the used car her father bought for her!

Technically, Serena Williams was not a 'cheerleader' at this event, however this is what young people were told back in 1992 in regards to cheering for a school sports team:
"Could a Christian really be "dedicated" to something as vain as promoting school spirit? Hardly; nor would it be appropriate for a Christian youth to urge a crowd to chant slogans or to sing songs that glorify violence or idolize teams and sports heroes. And as mentioned previously, the dangers of "bad associations" is a valid concern. (1 Corinthians 15:33) Too, let us not forget the obvious problems that could result from parading around - and dancing- in the immodest attire cheerleaders are often required to wear! (Timothy 2:9)" g92 2/8 pp 11-13
I'm with Magnum...FUCK EM!
The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is composed of FAKERS, FOOLS, FRAUDS AND FUCK-UPS! Thus it has always been...thus it shall always be.
Many of the old timers here remember when brothers were counseled if they didn't wear a white shirt, wore multi colored socks and didn't wear a suit (matching pants and coat) and when sisters were hounded to keep their dresses and skirts at exactly the middle of their knees!

Footage from Recently Converted Kingdom Hall to a Mosque
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/kjqwfeuhpji?si=6ahbituygdyiq3za.
when jehovah’s witnesses dedicate their kingdom halls, they often refer to the example of solomon dedicating the temple in jerusalem.
it’s a solemn moment.

WATCHTOWER logic at its finest:
Average Joe Witness can't work on a building (church, mosque, temple etc.) owned by 'Babylon the Great' so that he can make a living, feed his family, afford to go out in service preaching the 'good news' and probably make a donation to the 'Worldwide Work'.
However, The Governing Body can sell a Kingdom Hall to 'Babylon the Great' and use the funds to further the "World Wide' work.
Makes perfect sense to me.
