  German Foreign Office Issues Travel Warning For Sweden Due To Terrorism Risk. It would be funny if it were not true.

  who would have thought that one simple expression, "last night in sweden" would suddenly shine the light on the cockroaches?

  who would have thought so many people would laugh at the president for saying such a thing!

  https://www.facebook.com/prageru/videos/1182232715152916/?hc_ref=newsfeedcan islam be reformed though?could it, for example, be accepted eventually that only the quran, and only the nice parts of it, need to be followed?how did judaism - the non- orthodox kind - become one of the most progressive and open of religions, considering their holy text is so violent?maybe that should be studied?.

  Although the SPLC has earned a certain level of skepticism (this site would probably qualify as a hate crime because the JW's were added as a protected group by the SPLC). I find facts to be helpful. Look at the FBI report Here

  There is no doubt that hate crimes are on the rise. I think it's because the call to "make America great again" and the widespread admiration of "straight talk" are codespeak for those who harbor the worst racist, sexist and religious bias. They see the current political agenda as a way to have their voices heard.

  The alarming thing is how quickly "straight talk" turns into violence. Here in NY, just recently a woman was beaten while working at her desk at JFK for wearing a hijab, Swastikas were scrawled on subway cars. JCC's all over are being threatened.

  As a liberal and a newly minted atheist I have no love loss for Islam and it's violence. But like the gay dude at airport security in the anti-homo video the society put out, this very significant part of humanity are not going to just drop their religious and cultural identities at the metal detector because I don't like the way they treat women.

  "It's rigged!" is the utterly moronic call of the dolt that won the electoral college. Enough already. If the Dems were capable of drumming up 3 to 5 million illegal votes, why didn't they make sure they were placed in swing states so that they could have actually won the election?

  Another million or so Dem votes in both NY and CA isn't going to add a single Electoral Vote.

  2017 Circuit Assembly: Lesbians at school demonstration

  by darkspilver in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  steve2: is there some way this can be presented so that it is crystal clear what was actually in the demonstrations and what was added?

  i guess some will think it should be obvious - but this is where misunderstandings arise because we end up wrongly attributing something to jw organization that was never said.. circuit assembly theme: maintain love for jehovah!.

  note to speaker: warmly encourage young ones to prove their friendship with jehovah by observing his commandments and defending his standards.

  The popularity fad of home-schooling!

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i know this has been discussed over the years on this forum, but i just had to post this again!.

  it seems that the popular fad amongst the "spiritual" ones in the local circuits is to home school their children instead of sending them to school.. now to clarify, we are in a very nice area of semi rural australia .

  one with very community minded, and strong family values.

  Homeschooling is no worse for JW kids than for those who actually attend school. The result is the same in that they find themselves as social pariah's.

  No sports, no college, no fashion, no music, no movies, no parties and no future.

  So, the Womens March ... What Is It For?

  by Simon in

  2. current

  it seems like mobilizing after the election, which seems pointless.

  i keep hearing demands for equal rights but don't understand what rights they are missing exactly.. normally a march is to show the support (and potential votes) for a cause, but ... votes for what?

  ... and the election happened already.. is anyone else confused?

  Why are they Marching?

  To highlight that we have a thug with an adolescent temperment for a president.

  To bring attention to the fact that under his agenda, there is a very real threat that womens' reproductive rights will revert to the stone age.

  To protest the fact that soon 20 million or so will lose their health insurance. Another 20 million or so will be priced out of the market.

  To protest the threat of dismantling NATO.

  To protest the idea that we need to spend more money to expand our military. Already bigger than the next six national militaries combined.

  As for reasons, I think that is a start and well worth marching for.

  TV commercial seen in the United States, from a Law firm "Asking if you were ever sexually abused by JEHOVAHS WITNESSES, please call".

  by Dunedain in

  2. scandals

  ok, so i don't know if this is "old news", and if this has been seen, and or mentioned already.

  if it was, i do apologize, but i feel i have to mention what has been seen on tv, within the past 24 hours.. first off, i would like to say that i did not personally see this commercial.

  however, it was seen by someone that i can verify 100% is telling the truth, as it was my own father who saw it.

  Anyone who lives in the Tri State area knows that this is an ad for the law firm of Weitz and Luxembourg.

  Well known for chasing asbestos and other personal injury cases. I'd hate to be living in Warwick right now.

  Even if you've ever heard of JW's they'll file a lawsuit in your behalf and let the chips fall where they may.
