  all that talk about hillary clinton's unsecured e-mails?

  read the following:.

  "deagazio posted additional photos from the weekend, including one of his dining companions kissing trump on the cheek, a selfie with white house strategist steve bannon and another selfie identifying a man named rick who he says is responsible for carrying the nuclear “football,” which allows the president to authorize a nuclear attack while away from the white house.. "“this is rick,” wrote deagazio.

  Trump's presidency is descending into farce, and that's where it will stay for the next four years.

  His NSA has gone for cosying up to the Russians, his communications team can't get a coherent message out. His EO is in tatters and there isn't one metre of wall built yet.

  And this is just the first three weeks!

  I'm just looking forward to Have I Got News Foy You starting again.

  The Inherent Founding Paganism of the Jehovah's Witnesses

  by Finkelstein in

  there is an inherent founding association with paganism through and by the founding leader of the watchtower corporation that has to be realized and accepted as such.

  c t russell was once the head editorial writer for the wts.

  right up until his death in 1916. russell had associated himself with freemasons for awhile, giving talks at freemason halls and handing out literature he published at the same time.. he made up more or less a commercialized version of the gospel based upon a new era for mankind which he calculated by measuring the dimensions of the great pyramid of giza.

  But if that new light comes from the top of a pagan Pyramid at its source you still have a pretentious " New Light "

  Yeah, but if you take all the old books out of the congregation library then it never happened, right?

  BTW, I did not leave due to sexuality issues.

  it would have been enough, with the exception of a couple of southern US states fundie sects, I don't think I can think of a worse religion to grow up in as a gay person.

  Moral High Ground

  it seems that the other threads about trump's policies are veering off into endless ideological theories about how much better we are than islam.

  does anyone think there is a chance that islam can be changed in the same manner that christianity has over the centuries?

  with the inflow of ideas from western countries into the middle east, will people gradually want to move away from sharia law to something less patriarchal and cruel?

  Possibly. Christianity threw off the warfare and crusades about 400 years ago. So give them another 400 years and they'll be a Muslim version of the CoE - Islam Lite as it were.

  Perhaps if you go looking, but she's not in your face with it. Or ashamed of it.

  Absolutely! Don't get me wrong, it was a terrible burden. I remember going in FS with on brother who was an absolute doll and having to focus on my presentations. WHEW!!

  Yeah, sorry about that. I was a bit of a stunner in my time.

  just been reminiscing about how c/a's have changed since we were young.

  i remember when they started friday night in some rented hall , as well as the two weekend days.

  saturday morning was a brief session then field ministry (which only a few performed ) and sunday sessions.. in the free time around the venue we just used to hang out socialising and eyeing up the girls.

  He did yes - I think he became pretty high up at the London bethel. I have vague memories of him staying at our house during his visit.
