just going by the topic titles you've been using these last few weeks.. do you think you can survive a whole four years with someone that's not exactly your favorite candidate?.

i know i'm in the minority from what i've been reading here, but i'm glad for the change!.

well, we all can't be satisfied altogether can we?.

Muslim beheads one kills another yelling alahu akbar or what ever it is the idiots yell.

idiot muslims do it again.

when will libtards learn.

and now scotland wants to prosecute people for saying things in their own homes the muslims deem hate speech.

I respect that people have a religion. But I don't respect religion. Especially not the Abrahamic ones.

given his age and weight, he is at very high risk of needing to be hospitalized.. trump is arguably the most well-protected man on earth, and he got it.. people.....wear a fruggin' mask!.

Oh I see. So that makes it a Ok then. I guess that lesson I learned when I was five about two wrongs was a hoax as well.

Making an insensitive comment about McCain a few years ago is reason enough for him and his Wife to contract a potentially deadly disease?

But it wasnt my advice, it was Trump's. And, as he already told us...

I like this stuff. I really get it… every one of these doctors said, ‘how do you know so much about this?’ Maybe I have a natural ability.

Even doctors ask him how he knows so much. Let's see if he takes his own advice. Or he could always take light into his body and kill the virus that way.

Supposing you brought the light inside the body, which you can do either through the skin or in some other way.

This is the best news I've had all year. Lets hope he takes his own advice and injects disinfectant into himself.
For a cleaning
Absolutely disgusting comment.

Na, this one is far worse:

“He’s [McCain] not a war hero. He was a war hero because he was captured. I like people who weren’t captured.”

As I said on another post it could all be a lie so he doesn`t have to take part in another debate ?
What do you think ?

I think Trump is the last person who'd claim to have COVID if he doesnt really have it. For him to say that he has must be really bad.

For a cleaning.

"And then I see the disinfectant where it knocks it out in a minute. One minute. And is there a way we can do something like that, by injection inside or almost a cleaning"

Anthony Morris wants former Jehovah's Witnesses DEAD

by neat blue dog in

in a disgusting new video, anthony morris iii talks about apostates, and brings to mind his 'hot dog' talk all over again as he anticipates the demise of ex-jehovah's witnesses.

i don't know if you're familiar with maggots, but when you see a whole bunch of them it's not a pleasant sight.. .

what a fitting picture of the final end of all of god's enemies.

pale.emperor

He sounds eerily just like Hitler talking about the jews.

How do you switch off the thoughts of being raised JW and feelings of anger

by Zeds Dead in

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.

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this. I call it The Mindchatter. Like you cant stop thinking about it, arguing the theology in your head? First thing you think of in the morning?

Mine eased off when I found an outlet to explain the JW world to outsiders. (I chose a Q&A website Quora).

I found laughing at it helped to. Making fun of the GB, making jokes about the pictures in JW literature and basically making whole comedy scripts off the bizzare-ness of the JW world.

Maybe it'll never disappear entirely.

Privileges

by neat blue dog in

for me, outside the jw context, that word seems to relate to something like a prison setting, where you're allowed to do certain things based on good behavior.

pale.emperor

Isnt it funny how the "privilages" were always something nobody in the real world would want to do? Smack the label "privilage" onto it and it suddenly becomes a good thing.

Cleaning toilets
Mopping up vomit at a convention
Being a human microphone stand
Sitting away from your family to run the sound desk
Door knocking for 70 hours without pay
Cooking the CO a meal

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..

I was discussing this with another sister once. She said the men in the religion have ‘pick of the litter’ because there were so many women..but sisters are expected to accept ‘ugly goons’ because there are so few men and the decent ones are already taken.

I always found the prettiest JW girls were already snapped up by age 20. But I should have bided my time, they were usually divorced by 30!
