  Welcoming Our Latest JW Apologist JTrottigy

  by pale.emperor in

  i'd like to take this opportunity to warmly welcome our newest jw apologist jtrottigy.

  .

  he'll likely only be here for a few days like most jw defenders before he runs away when presented with his own doctrine.. so far he's already said some hilarious stuff, like "there's no such thing as nepotism in jehovah's organisation", "confidentiality is paramount to elders" and, my personal favourite "the overlapping generation is so simple to understand".. yh don't think i don't remember you from jwtalk..

  I have posted this before but it deserves repeating. I live north of Brisbane in Queensland, Australia. The Kingdom Hall in the local town, Caboolture, was sold about nine years ago.

  Since then a large block of land was bought in a good position near the town.

  A Kingdom Hall was promised about twelve months ago after the cash grab by the organisation which netted them over one million dollars from the two Congs who have an interest in this.

  First we were promised a kh, then I left for good, then my still in wife, D, told me that the hall had been cancelled.

  We bought a five acre “bush block” with a house on over thirty years ago and raised our three daughters here. We have grandchildren now and we look after chickens for one who is three years old and visits us us and her chickens and sits in the pen holding and playing with them to see that they are OK.

  down the road from us is encroaching suburbia with three thousand houses being built.

  This is a ramble were I am hoping that someone from Caboolture cong reads this and comes out to see me where I can reason with them on facts not emotion and perhaps wake them up. I have had elders and others out here before but got nowhere. I feel however that I am not doing so bad for someone with a diagnosed anxiety disorder. Are they afraid of me for some reason?

  Sorry for the rant.

  well, i offered in one of his threads to have him on the show and posters seemed excited at the possibility and we got it done so now you can hear from the man himself on the newest episode of "shunned".

  one of our very own stepped up to tell his story, well, aside from myself of course.

  it was great getting to actually speak with him.. this is my first international interview for the podcast.

  The Threat From Ebola by Somebody Who Discovered It

  by cofty in

  1. social
  2. current

  this interview in der spiegel is well worth your time.... peter piot was one of the scientists who discovered ebola in 1976. turns out it was the fault of catholic nuns who coldn't be bothered to sterilise the needles they were using to administer vitamins to pregnant women.. he describes the present outbreak as "a perfect storm" which could claim a frightening number of lives in africa and india.

  he doesn't see it as a serious threat to countries with a modern health care system.. "i still remember exactly: one day in september, a pilot from sabena airlines brought us a shiny blue thermos and a letter from a doctor in kinshasa in what was then zaire...".

  No one fancy Dianne Abbott?

  I live in Aus but I have seen YouTube videos of her with Andrew Neill and Michael Portillo etc. Is she for real or were those just off days?

  My dental theory

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  while enjoying one of my favourite snacks the other day, (hula hoops) i suddenly had this thought; if ever a metal nut is hard to loosen with a wrench, usually a a couple of sharp hits with a hammer is enough to break the grip of whatever is holding it - usually rust.

  similarly, crunching on foods which can impart small shockwaves to a capped tooth could have the same effect and cause the hardened dental cement to fracture and loosen the crown.

  (cap).

  Stripping thin electric cable with your front teeth is a poor idea as well. Broke a tiny piece off between the teeth. From then on I look for the cable stripper.

  jp.... any way that this could be combined with zeb’s post to cover sales in countries that mainly use this forum? It would be more interesting then.

  I realise there could be a tremendous amount of work involved.
