Religion shouldn't be a pawn in geopolitical games....the Russian are confiscating JW property because of the US sanctions...but they're mistaken, the Borg is pretty inoffensive.

Are You Horrifed if Someone Goes Into a “Massage Parlor”?
by minimus inyesterday, robert kraft, the owner of the new england patriots, got busted for getting a massage and more.
they say there is another more high profile person who also got busted.. does this stuff upset you that some men have gone into a massage parlor for possibly more than a massage?

Ohhh...I would horrified for NOT going into a "massage parlour"....but seriously, it is morally wrong to pay for sex.
However that has been happening to humanity since forever....just remember the history in the Bible about Judah paying for sex with a woman....
The thing is that it needs to be a human way to deal with that....governments have been criminalizing prostitution all the time and usually the people that offer the service got in jail....and the guys that paid or the pimps just walk away.
It's incredible that this millionaires got the trouble in Florida for $75 an hour...instead of going to those places in Nevada where is legal. No worries, they have the best lawyers in the world. Just see, the media become silent too, no hope altogether to know the names in the 200 + list of parlour's clients

Michael Cohen... sleazebag or patriot?
by Queequeg inso, what do you think?
.
fwiw, i say sleazebag....
-
mikeflood
Things are weird with Cohen, he doesn't gain to much with that show in Congress, you know, calling is former boss a liar, a con man, a racist. He is a very competent lawyer, if he is so honest he shouldn't have worked with Trump.or at least leaving the job after a couple of months. It seems to me that he is trying to finish Trump's presidency.

I remember hearing something like this one time "when the preaching is done, the door is gonna close, etc".
Could it be something like that?

They all laughed when I insisted that the Yellowstone caldera was a threat...
by Nathan Natas instrangely enough, jesus never warned that "there will be wars and rumors of wars, but if the yellowstone caldera blows, we're toast.".
...and jesus' composite bride through the pages of the watchtower, never suggested that deeply-dipped dubs ought to move out of the area downwind of yellowstone, lest they be transformed in the twinkling of an eye into crispy monoliths.. but up here in the uadna orbiting space platform, things are different.
we're rational.

Yea, hydrothermal activity is a risk at Yellowstone too, but don't worry ... could it happen tomorrow or in a couple of hundred thousand years...and with all the scientific tools, at least there's gonna be a warning to the people

If The Mueller Report Doesn’t Prove Trump Colluded With The Russians They Will Still Claim Trump Is Guilty!
by minimus init’s already happening.
they just can’t move on..
-

The thing is that Mueller investigation was biased since the beginning...(remember the famous dossier), and now it seems to go endlessly, each time the partisan rancour increasing like a biblical damnation. This is a childish thing, dangerous for the country.
What about focus on rebuildig infrastructure, solving the intractable immigration problem, facing all those geopolitical tensions or the forever increasing debt...
But no, I just read that the New Jersey Senate pass a bill that could keep Trump out 2020 ballot...c'omon people, all here are Americans, not enemies to each other.

7 Jehovah’s Witnesses Brutally Tortured in Russia
by Drearyweather inhttps://jw-russia.org/en/news/19021923-622.html.
at least seven of jehovah’s witnesses were subjected to torture—electric shocks, suffocation, and cruel beatings—on the first floor of the russian investigative committee’s building at ul.
ostrovskogo, d. 47, in surgut.

Torturing people is a despicable crime....remember that the right to religious freedom is enshrined in almost all the world's Constitutions...the least that Russia could do is bring the guilty government personal to justice.
