Sorry fake news. You can not go to CNN or PMSNBC for news.

LOL, it is the same thing when people post links from FOX news and affiliates, you get the same response "Fake news"

You should get your news from JW broadcasting

new america without boarders is now sending its uneducated, sometimes criminal and gang members, mostly illiterate people who have nothing to offer to any country they want to go if they think they can better their life.

so look for our lowest common denominator coming to your country soon.

The GREATEST—EMERGENCY RESPONDER-----JEHOVAH GOD!

by pistolpete in

this is not mine, and i check and didn't see me posting it in the past, but it’s appropriate with what covid did to the door to door preaching work.. considering we are living in the last days, and everlasting life is at stake……….

and the only means of salvation ------is the preaching work……... why would jehovah allow door to door preaching to stop for a whole year-----maybe longer?????.

all jehovah’s witnesses never noticed how dumb the door to door preaching work actually is.. jehovah is the greatest emergency responder.

Funny isn't it that yahweh's organization needs Satan's world ($$$$) to to function correctly. Where was God when the Corvid emergency claimed the lives of hundreds of Witnesses. Satan's world had to provide the Vaccine to save Jehovah's people.

i'm so proud of my son.

he has persevered through 2 years of community college.

three of those semesters were at home because covid19 shut in person classes.

Congratulations!

Education is so expensive in America, it is so strange when I hear people having huge student loans.

Woke Oscars cringe

by LoveUniHateExams in

actors' acceptance speeches have often been a little dodgy - viewers don't care what political or social views actors may have, we typically appreciate actors acting well.. this year's oscars awards ceremony seems to be going above and beyond, however.. here's frances mcdormand's acceptance speech, in which she dedicates her victory to 'our wolf' and then howls like a bitch, lol.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-_be0awgwk.

The point is that society is changing and it is forcing actors and politicians to move in that same direction - there is no 'forcing' going on. Actors are using their free will to say crazy shit during their speeches. All they have to do is go up on stage, collect their award, thank their agent, then f**k off.

Ricky Gervais has another version of that statement. So actors should act and leaving the thinking to those who do it better.

It isn't muddled, those two things go hand in hand. "Woke" films don't draw big audiences. In an effort to get the ratings back they produce crummy remakes of old hits.

Would you consider Black Panther a Woke film? It might be an outlier

What about some "Some like it hot" from the late 50s? What is considered Woke in films today has been going one for decades.

Hollywood has forgotten that the first thing they need to do is entertain people - ding, ding, ding, I think we have a winner!

Hollywood is about making money, Box office hit. How many times have you seen good film that didn't do well in the box office. An example come to mind, Shawshank Redemption. It was entertaining but it still bombed

There are exceptions to the rules and that is why generalizing in this case does not take into considering all the factors.

I will say that part of the reason why the Oscars Bombed this year is partly due to the Pandemic. The same reason the latest James Bond film has been postponed again.

Drastic Upcoming Changes? (accelerated by the pandemic)

by JWTom in

good to see you again!

much discussion now about the fallout that is coming due to impacts of the pandemic combined with the long-term downward spiral of jw.org.

i am active as a pimo and my wife is pimi....much of our personal conversation and conversation with others in jw land focuses on how things will play out for jw.org in the next 12-24 months.

iXav

Even the pimi seem to be in contact with DF family

You have to keep faking it. What the Org doesnt know wouldn't hurt it

Development of a False Prophecy

by Ding in

based on wt history of repeated false prophecies, here is the way these things seem to develop:.

1. someone connects unrelated bible verses and comes up with a date for the end.. 2. this date is "confirmed" by outside information, such as pyramid measurements.. 3. they share this "hidden knowledge" with others.. 4. they develop a following of people who are excited to be the only ones on earth who understand "the deep things of god.".

5. they promote the date.. 6. people laugh them to scorn.. 7. the faithful cry "persecution" and wait expectantly.. 8. as the date approaches, they get more and more excited.. 9. when the date is imminent, leaders get worried and start to hedge their bets through cautionary language.. 10. when the date comes and goes, they come up with some explanation (adam-eve creation gap, no year 0, etc.

iXav

12. After several years go by, they lose followers are forced to decide whether to disband or start over.
13. They set a new date and attract new followers who aren't aware of their previous failures.
14. The cycle repeats.

This is very true, but the only difference now is new media and modern communication. They will rinse and repeat but the bleeding will not stop. They will rig the numbers like when the merged field service monthly reports to start counting tracts, invitations,etc. That will still not stop them losing numbers. Those at the top can see the decline but your average JW will just be happy to go along because he doesn't care much about the core beliefs.

The rinse and repeat creates apathy like "crying wolf".

And, yes, you're allowed to talk to a disfellonwship person, that is going to be a 'biblical' personal decision.

that is will be hard for them to do. Those who have been disfellowshipped in the past will be pissed that it is now so easy.

Covid 19 True Infection Rate / Proof of Misinformation

by Simon in

this is interesting.. you've probably heard of "asymptomatic spread" which is, people who are infected with the virus and are spreading it, but who have no symptoms.. but is it accurate?

is it supported by the statistics?.

this video analyses the facts and concludes that we've been given misinformation due to faulty testing.

iXav

We need to live with this virus.

that is the reality and there are still a lot of unknowns as to how new strains of the virus will impact lives even after most of the population has been vaccinated.
