Do You Feel Bad Because Nancy Pelosi Was “Set Up”?

by minimus in

i feel awful for her.

she was given permission to get a silly haircut and then the salon owner tattles on her.

yup, she was set up!!

pistolpete

Nancy Pelosi was ELECTED to House of Representatives since 1987. She has to run for the job every two years to get elected and keep her job. For 17 terms she continues to be re-elected by the people for the people.

For over 30 years her hypocrisy has not been hidden from the common people. Year after year her misused of taxpayers funds to fund her pet projects is open for all to see. She destroys business, overtaxes her citizens, makes laws that restrict the common folk but that she can break without consequences. Yet the people in her district continue to vote her in every two years - WHY?

What does this tell us about the majority of the people in California who continue to elect her and the other Democratic representatives who are also putting burdens on their own citizens and destroying the State with all their crazy laws?

Now Nancy Pelosi is fighting the stimulus package that will help the average citizen because she wants billions of that Federal money to go to the State of California so the rich don't have to be taxed for all the damage to business that the Democratic lock-down has caused in that State.

Now a lot of people from California are moving to the Republican States and taking their shit with them and voting in the same Democratic people with the same ideology of Nancy Pelosi.

As a result the Republican States will eventually be destroyed.

The Democratic far left ideology is what is destroying America.

The reason it's so hard to get rid of this ideology is the same reason you can't convince Jehovah's witnesses that they are in a cult and the Governing Body are just 8 old crazy dudes with NO DIRECT TIES TO GOD.

All Jehovah's Witnesses who are still in the cult won't take the time to look at the evidence and put in the hard work of doing research which in many cases takes a few years to sink in. Plus they've been indoctrinated to believe that they have the TRUTH and everything else is EVIL and should not be looked at.

As I said before-----humans have this ability to be so smart sometimes, but then the next day they can be so stupid.

One day they invent nuclear power which can provide plenty of electricity to power the entire human race. The next day they create nuclear bombs and wipe out two cities in Japan that wipes out some 140,000 men, women, and children in a matter of seconds.

I will vote for Trump because at the moment he is the most level-headed candidate for the Presidency. Can he change? Sure. He can become President and 1 year down the line, totally lose it and start a nuke war with Korea.

On the other hand, the Democratic platform at the moment is all about burning down cities, open borders, close prisons and free the prisoners, defund the police, abortions up till the 9th months of pregnancy, free medical to illegal immigrants paid by honest legal citizens, confiscate all guns from law abiding citizens, make property ownership illegal and let the government own all property. Create an extra tax on citizens for the Green New Deal. Get rid of cars only for your average citizen. Make all salaries equal whether you are a Heart surgeon or a janitor. Let the Government decide if you can have a pacemaker, chemo for your cancer, blood pressure medicine.

I have no Idea if Trump will win. People have kept Nancy Pelosi in office for over 30 years. People in California, Portland, Chicago , Washington, etc. continue to vote in the Democratics that keep on destroying them, their homes, and their cities. The homeless and drug addicts, keep getting bigger and bigger in their States. Then millions of people move out of the Democratic State and go to a Republican State and they keep saying;

I will vote for Joe Biden and Harris----BECAUSE I AM A DEMOCRATIC

Needing to Questions Elders to Help Husband Understand

by Unlikely-pack-6349 in

my husband insist that i talk to the elders.

it is something i 100% plan on doing for the simple fact of my relationship with him.

i know some of you may disagree but it seems like the best option for us.. problem/question: .

pistolpete

Me personally, I would keep the elders out of it.You are dealing with a religious cult of very indoctrinated men. There is no way you can come out of any discussion with them as a winner in any way, shape, or form.

It would be better if you just not meet with other cult members, and be patient and work on your husband little by little and avoid any confrontations that put a strain on a marriage.

Waking up anyone, your husband in this case takes a lot of time. It takes lots of research and it is very difficult emotionally and mentally for someone to deal with the fact that they have been lied about everything. For many it actually takes years to finally see.

Poll/ So Who Do You Think Will Win The Presidency?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i have always felt trump will win again.

i just don’t see biden winning.. what’s your prediction?.

pistolpete

I want Trump to win but the human species is just to unpredictable, power-hungry, greedy, and conniving. Look at what is happening right now not only in the USA but all around the world, Humans can't be trusted from one day to the next.

If we think the Democrats aren't busy right now planning to somehow cheat their way into winning the election and that justice will prevail, then we are naive. The weakness of the Republicans is that they are weak in fighting back. By now several of the Democratic governors, mayors, and congressmen should have been locked up in jail for breaking the law, but the Republicans do absolutely nothing but sit back and watch.

Nancy Pelosi broke the law just yesterday and no one does anything and she is saying she thought the law allowed it.

Pelosi wrote the law to shut down salons. Yet she breaks the law and no one does anything about it.

All cities who had rioters should have immediately fought back and prevented them from taking over the cities and destroying all the properties. They should have locked up the governors and mayors and city council who allowed this in their cities. Instead even the police force listens to these mayors and governors to refrain from helping the good citizens and allow the rioters to burn down the cities.

And the good citizens did nothing but watch bad people burn their cities down. They didn't fight back. And as a result they lost everything. Some cities don't even have any grocery stores anymore. All the businesses are burnt to the ground.

THE ONLY THING NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL IS THAT GOOD MEN DO NOTHING.

Why Does It Seem That Black People Are Always Being Shot By The Police?

by minimus in

friends

there is either a conspiracy against blacks in this country and police are out to get them or it’s that they are getting caught breaking the law and often times refuse to obey police authority.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ANSWER THE QUESTION!

Wishing the Gov.Body Members Contact Covid Virus.

by smiddy3 in

i don`t wish them any real harm or death or anything ,but i feel that if a few of them contracted the virus it might wake a few more up that their is no god to protect them from what is happening in the world.. after all they are living in a hot spot aren`t they ?.

am i wrong in wishing this to befall some of them ?

as a wake up call ?

pistolpete

I don't wish good people any harm either but are the GB good people?

How many innocent children, young couples, mothers and fathers, grandparents would still be alive if not for the "No Blood" doctrine pushed by the GB

How many young men would have avoided years in prison for their neutrality doctrine.

How many families would still be together instead of being broken by their disfellowshipping policy.

How many members would be better off if they pursued higher education instead of pioneering and recruiting more gullible people

Around 57,000,000 (million) people will die this year. Many of them will be good people. Many will be parents who will leave young children to fend for themselves.

If the lives of the 8 GB could be exchanged for the lives of some parents who are about to die this year, whose young children depend on them, ----the world would be a better place.

Bewildering Background revealing who stopped slavery in the world

by Terry in

jw
friends

bewildering background.

even among the greatest religious thinkers and moral philosophers of civilizations around the world for 1000’s of years slavery was not considered a moral issue.. only one civilization developed a “moral revulsion” against it very late in its history:western civilization.. abraham lincoln said:if slavery is not considered wrong; nothing can be considered as wrong.. but why did not even the leading moralists among other nations and civilizations reject slavery at all?.

there is no evidence that slavery came under attack in any other part of the world before the 18th century.

"In 1964, on the floor of the U.S. Senate, Democrats held the longest filibuster in our nation’s history, 60 days. All trying to prevent the passing of one thing. The Civil Rights Act."

Fuc*ing Democrats!

William Miller

by lepavoux in

" this is the man who made it all happen" type this in.. this is how the watchtower organization began!

!.

pistolpete

Miller had an "IDEA" but it was "PEOPLE" who perpetuated his "Idea"

Miller's prophesy failed. He was done, it was over, cased CLOSED.

But there are always some nutty followers that just won't let it die .

George Storrs, George Stetson, and Nelson Barbour were staunch Millerite Adventist who just wouldn't let the "Idea" DIE. Nelson Barbour spread this propaganda to Charles Taze Russell who in turn spread it to Judge Rutherford who in turn handed the baton to succeeding men who were more than willing to continue in this 'IDEA" that had FAILED FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

But in all reality, it's People who give LIFE AND BREATH TO CRAZY IDEAS. It's people who keep these ideas alive and well.

The idea that is actually at fault is not so much the idea that the Watchtower holds. But the real culprit is the idea that THE BIBLE IS GOD'S INSPIRED WORD TO HUMANS.

Debunk that idea, and all Christianity and Abahamic religions DIE, which include WT.

I Dont Want My JW Family To Wake Up

by pale.emperor in

it's come to the point now, after being out almost 5 years, that i've come too far with my life, acheived the things i wanted (or i'm on the road to), did the things i wanted to do and have reached a happy and satisfactory life.. i did all this on my own apart from exjws such as yourselves online for support.

after reaching a place where i finally dont think about wt everyday and stopped getting emotional or worked up about my former jw life i'm glad to simply live my life and let others get on with theirs.. but, if my family were to leave and get in touch i'd have to deal with all that shit again.

i'd have to deal with people who's personality i deliberately removed from my life as i was building an authentic nonjw life.. my mother would likely still be closed minded and homophobic.. my sisters would likely still live for gossip and social media stalking.. my cousins would likely still put on a pretence of wealth to impress those around them.. i really cant be doing with such people.. it sounds bad, but i really hope they stay in.

pistolpete

I believe a person can choose whoever he wants to be in his circle of close friends,

Whether it is JWs - (still in the religion) or EXJWs, (not in the religion anymore), or relatives, or close family members, or work associates, or any other group one can conjure up, -----the named relationship should never be the criteria that determines who one chooses as one's close friend.

Life is to short to allow people into your personal life that will drag you down mentally, emotionally, or physically.

One should choose people who add zest in his/her life and understand the meaning of compassion.

Resolution passing with zoom

hi folks.. i put this in practices as i thought that appropriate.

perhaps it should be in scandalous behavior.

not a big deal but an example of the cult-ish intimidation and behavior.. at the end of this mornings short wt review prior to the convention brainwash by jackson, ( melbourne australia) the elder stated "brothers we have a resolution to present to the congregation".

not with disdain, we are told but as lost sheep “still our brothers “ it is said that god loves them and they too must do what they can to help them.. why have we strayed ?
