  by darkspilver in

  this is from the website of the daily mirror - a british 'mass-market' red-top tabloid.

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/daily_mirror.

  in the words of simon: "peers morgan was editor of the mirror and forced to resign after they published faked photos alleging that british soldiers were abusing iraqi's (around the time of ahu ghraib).

  With that said, knowing the inside operations of the JW cult, this article is probably 100%.

  The article may well be true but that statement is absolutely typical of the confirmation bias that goes on here

  Outraged After Watching The May 2017 Broadcast

  ok, so i've just put myself through another months broadcast so i can see what bull they're feeding my still in relatives.

  all was going fine... well, i say fine, i mean the usual cheesy videos, rehearsed reactions from jeffrey jackson (you remember him, the one who told half truths and lies at the royal commission) and propaganda from jw land.. the last feature brings up 9/11 and the paris 2015 attack at the bataclan.

  just as im thinking "how are they gonna spin this in their direction" i hear these words:.

  Why? Set yourself a challenge to not do that next month. The sooner it becomes irrelevant to you the better.

  Met JWs today - they lied about who they were

  so a couple came into the library where i work today and the woman said she was from the british sign language association and asked if i would display a leaflet for her.

  when she handed me the leaflet the jw website logo jumped out at me as did the words 'would you like to study the bible with jehovah's witnesses?

  ' there was a small picture that had someone conversing in sign language but the other pictures were typical jw leaflet pictures.

  Find it odd that so many people seem to be becoming JW apologists here.

  I find it amusing that anyone who disagrees with anyone, or doesn't jump on the bandwagon is immediately a JW apologist,

  just a heads-up that i will be testing some updates this evening.. the nature of the changes means it's difficult to test every scenario in advance offline (translation: it's a lot more effort and i just can't be bothered) so i'm going to go with the "wing-it" approach:.

  deploy, check for errors, try to fix errors before anyone else notices them.. i can switch between the new and old version pretty quickly so if there are significant issues, i'll rollback and revert the changes while i work on the fixes.

  worse case is the pages won't display quite right (dates might be a giveaway) but a full page refresh should fix things.. http://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/.

  Religious Liberty EO

  by Richard Oliver in

  what does everyone think of the new executive order on religious liberty?

  this would include a weakening of the johnson amendment so churches will be freer to either contribute to political campaigns and/or promote a candidate from the pulpit.
