“I’m young and healthy so coronavirus won’t affect me” (why we need to stop this disease at ALL costs!)
by slimboyfat ineven if you are young and heathy there are very good reasons to fear this disease and take drastic actions to avoid it individually, and halt it together as communities.
not only would it be traumatic as a society to lose so many old and unwell family members and friends, but survivors of the disease may suffer significant health problems in the future.
survivors of the first sars virus in 2003 have suffered significant lung problems.

With people like such idiots the virus is gonna be very difficult to contain!

You know, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, United Kingdom and the United States. Of course, better don't give the Borg ideas....

May 2020 Watchtower They Admit, they don't know
by Listener inthey'll write pages and pages of stuff and yet they don't have any idea.. here's a paragraph from their latest speculations on future events, bolding is mine.. a prophecy recorded by ezekiel gives some insight into what may happen during the last days of the king of the north and the king of the south.
if we view the prophecies of ezekiel 38:10-23; daniel 2:43-45; 11:44–12:1; and revelation 16:13-16, 21 as speaking about the same time period and events, it appears that we can expect the following developments.. that's an awful lot of assumptions to make.
what they've done is picked out various scriptures from different parts of the bible and now state that they may or may not be talking about the same events.

Well, they're making a big bet, it sounds like 1975 again.
Tons of 'nu light' like, encompassing just 1870 to the present for the North and the South kings, for example, the king of the South 'caused ruin' when they used the atomic bomb....
ONU as usually destroys false religion but is the king of the North and others that attack the JW at last. Already they think that the prophecy about the "land of decoration" is fulfilled when the Borg got proscribed and their buildings confiscated in Russia.
Also they are thinking about an enigmatic "hard hitting message of judgment" Could it happen that they deliver it and stop preaching? Who knows.
They seem to be ratcheting the pressure......I wonder how the RF gonna react.

Well....it's almost like 80,000 coronavirus infected people now. Most worrisome the situation in Iran...they are like with no resources to contain it.
After that, other facts, some people are super spreaders, authorities saying that maybe the quarantine should be 29 days instead of 14, somebody got reinfected, heces and urine could help the transmission, others could be transmitting it without symptoms.
How you guys think the situation could evolve here in the US?

Michael Bloomberg—what’s your opinion of him?
by minimus inand do you think he has a chance to win it all?
?.

mikeflood
I don't think Bloomberg has a chance, because he was a Republican and then he switched to the Democrats.
However, he shouldn't keep apologizing for his "stop and frisk" policy, it's enough of political correctness. If there's a lot of violent crime in a "minority neighborhood" the police should be able to check on people. It sounds bad but the alternative is leaving them to kill each other with impunity. I know it is disproportionate, but is the only way.

Kh's will be gone in 5 years! Here's how it will work
by nowwhat? inbesides the media center they are going to build in n.y. it's been noted they are also building one and a studio in australia.
there is no way donations can cover these massive projects.
so the money will have to come from the sale of the remaining halls.

Where on the scriptures says that meetings should be twice a week?
In the Bible, Jewish people, had just three festivals in the whole year. In the New Testament just says "not abandon meeting together" it doesn't stipulate nothing, so why just not make the meetings once or twice a MONTH? Make it in a way more appealing to the RF, like putting one extra hour to enjoy 'paradise' with food, music, etc... paradise is here folks!
They then could be selling a lot more KH and rake profits, big profits. Another benefit, you're not gonna have ALL of your weekends ruined.
Anyway, don't give them ideas.

I agree with The Fall Guy about eliminating the midweek meeting. They could put more importance to the Family Worship thing, and for preaching....it's outdoors, no longer heavy load of literature required and they could meet and start it at parking lot, no liability whatsoever.
That way, imagine all the money they could get selling half of the KH. The weekly meeting could be any day of the week! KH then could be used like 24/7!

Will Armageddon Survivors Be Able to Marry?
by Expanded-Mind inhi blondie!.
thirteen years ago you commented on an idea circulating among some jws prior to 1975, that there was a possibility that armageddon survivors might not be able to marry.. "these vows that honor god are used—not from the bible but the only ones sanctioned by the wts.. for as long as we both shall live together on earth according to god's marital arrangement.. when i was in my 20’s, many jws interpreted this to mean that at some point in the 'new system' marriage would end.
since this was shortly before 1975, many jws rushed to get married worried that they would never have the chance (and never have the chance to have sex.

Ohhhh....let's spin this more. "The just shall inherit the earth" Matt 5:5, note carefully, it does't say the same people living forever, it's just the just as a whole that live forever in paradise.
"He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain. All this things are done forever" Rev21:4, let's be clear, people could cry sometimes in paradise, so this scripture is symbolic. When people reach their old age they are gonna died as always, but is gonna be a painless process.
So survivors could go with their lives in paradise, including marrying . Don't expect to live forever, of course.
OMG, I think I could start a new religion here.
