  during a recent conversation i had with someone, a question came up that i really don't know the answer to.

  did jw's still drink during prohibition in the us during the 1920's until it's repeal in 1933?

  was alcoholic beverages considered forbidden and possibly subject to disfellowshipping?.

  Yes, I know of the stories about Judge Rutherford and the rest of them at that time boozing it up. But what about the average JW or Bible Student during that time? Were they required to abstain from alcohol? I guess it was OK after prohibition was repealed because a lot of JW's love their drinks.

  The Cancel Culture Is Alive And Well

  if you don’t support certain ideas or beliefs, you may find yourself on the losing end in business, money matters, and community.

  curt schilling, a former red sox player who is conservative today reported how his insurance company suddenly dropped him even though he was an excellent consumer with them because of his “ views”.

  he was marked by those in charge and evidently was told by the rep he knew that they didn’t like his political views.

  I think the media will also attack their own. As long as Trump is not there they must sell media.

  Also, the late night hacks that many treat their shows like it's news will have to sell as well.

  Hacks like Bill Maher, Samantha Bee, Seth Meyers, John Oliver, Jimmy Fallon, James Corden, Jimmy Kimmel, Trevor Noah, and Stephen Colbert will finally have to come up with some new material that might actually be funny for a change.

  Do You Support Trump Being Impeached Again?

  it looks like it can happen again and i suspect if it does happen, the senate will not convict either because they can’t convict him since it’s after his presidency or simply because they don’t have sufficient votes..

  They can waste time and money with this bullshit. All this for a week. Next week, Trump is out. He's done.

  You think these full of shit politicians would give this much of a shit and react this quickly for the American People.

  "Look. Let's impeach Trump!! This will get the stupid proles to forget about the $2000 stimulus payout they ain't getting!!"

  And it WORKED!!!

  i’ve been gone a long time.

  after my mother passed away a few years ago, i pretty much lost most contact with the witnesses.

  a couple that were family friends for many years stopped checking on me to say hello.

  Still the same. Get dressed up, attend same old meeting, except it’s now on Zoom.
  Only difference is that you don’t have to wear shoes. They do frown upon not wearing pants though.

  The events unfolding around us are
  making clearer than ever that we're
  living in the final part of the last
  days...undoubtedly the final part of the
  final part of the last days...shortly before
  the last day of the last days."

  
  

  And the Witnesses have been quoting that ad nauseam ever since.

  ...de-fund the police, remove the 2nd amendment and confiscate all guns,...

  Remember, Joe Biden did tell Beto O'Rourke back in February of this year that if elected President, Beto would be the one to “take care of the gun problem, you’re going to be the one who leads this effort”.
  

  Let's see if he keeps that promise......
