  new german chancellor merz has won the election.

  trump congratulated his victory but the response was not what trump expected.

  merz condemned america, saying that america seemed to be aligning with russia.. he also expressed doubts about nato’s future.. he is now advocating that germany must gain independence from usa.

  Having watched prophetic interpretation for many years, by people who have a Bible in one hand and a newspaper in the other, I know that, like a number 12 bus, there'll be another one* along soon. 🙄

  * Candidate for king of North and South, that is

  ah, yes, another shining example of the watchtower’s *unmatched* commitment to rational thought.

  forget logic, science, or even basic common sense—just blame that suspiciously cursed handbag for all your troubles!

  "There once was a man from Nantucket . . . 🤣🤣🤣"

  Who carried his books* in a bucket

  One day on the track,

  The bucket talked back

  Which caused him to say "Oh, truck it!"

  Actually, from what I've read from many former JWs, is that they all had demonised handbags and bookbags. Why else would all of them not feel like going out in field service? 🤔

  jhine: "I would have to ask if any of these stories told by the WT actually true ? They all start with ' A Christian man ' or ' A Christian woman ' , so very anonymous"

  They're the WT version of parables. Instead of Jesus's "A certain man...", it's "A Christian man/woman...".

  Depression and big pharma drugs

  i'm going to drop a bomb shell here for all you who think you know something about depression.

  most depression cases are being cause by the food and drug administration.

  they are putting things in certain foods that they know will affect certain people especially those who have gluten problems.

  Apparently the whole "exploding beeper" attack on Hezbollah has been noticed by the conspiracy theory community and has made its way here in this form:

  "There secret weapon is lithium. They give the patients lithium and then when the time is right through cellular phone technology they send out a certain frequency through your cellular phone and the Lithium causes the person to be completely paralyzed and the EMS takes them away in the morning"

  So the lithium carbonate in a person's body takes on the the characteristics of metallic lithium in a battery and shorts out, causing a complete electrical meltdown of that person's nervous system?

  I've got to give the OP credit for originality. I can't find this particular conspiracy theory on the web. Snopes had something about lithium in chemtrails, but it didn't have this "exploding beeper" twist.

  One hundred percent trolling. 💯🧌

  Edited to add: I've been looking up "human antenna" as per Kerry king's suggestion and can't find this variant of it. Anyway, enough time wasted by me on this subject. It has been a fascinating insight into how conspiracy theories get born.

  Coroners Report New South Wales Australia

  "Church officials told the inquest the church did not provide medical information to members as it was a religious organisation, not a medical organisation."

  Yet what are these "work sheets" that are being referred to here?

  "Before her surgery, Mrs Winchester had also spoken to doctors about work sheets parishioners were given by the church outlining unacceptable blood products"

  That pretty well gives the lie to the first quote up above. Theocratic warfare at its finest.

  The WT blood dogma probably gives the impression that alternatives to blood transfusions are readily available anywhere, but those alternatives weren't available in the entire state of New South Wales. It feels like the coroner is tearing his hair out in frustration over the situation.

  BTW, I still think that the OP (having precisely one post, and one post alone) is trolling. To parody this type of post? Or trying to make a statement about their opinion of the intelligence of those on this board*?

  *Loyal JW trying to make "apostates" look bad or silly?

  "the lithium carbonate in medication is not the same as the lithuim in electronics"

  I know that. That's why I said that. (Yes, in a very oblique way) Did my post really read like I was agreeing with the OP? I used words like "game" and "conspiracy theorists" to describe the theory and its proponents. And then gave an example (mentioning potassium) of why the "logic" of the original proposition is flawed.

  Dammit Vidiot! Now I'm going to have the backpack's song going through my head for the rest of the day! 😱🙄
