  There was a time when I asked the same question you ask.

  When I was busy working and surviving.

  Now that I have time to read and research, I see the answers are in plain view.

  Especially in the information age.

  Be bewildered no more Minimus read world history and study the people who gave you the bible.

  Hollywood and all the major television networks.

  And the print media.

  It is just as simple as following the money and the power.

  It's like a Harley Davidson,

  If I have to explain, you wouldn't understand.

  Also in this day and age you have to be careful about what you say about the emperor,

  because everything we do and say here is recorded for posterity and can and will be used against us.

  Or as the bible says " watch what you say about the king because a little bird might listen and repeat it to him."

  Eccleseastes 10:20

  If you want to know why intellent people are aniti-semetic.

  And by intelligent, I mean people who read and understand.

  Get yourself a history of the world.

  I recommend "Glencoes World History" It is high shcool college history 101.

  And read it cover to cover.

  Folow the money and power and abuse of the masses by the rich and powerful.

  And let world history from day one tell you who is at the top and in control.

  If you like the results of who is in control you will be happy.

  If you dont

  like the results of who is in control of the world, world history

  and following the money and power will tell you who it is.

  Having said that the Jews that you run into on the street and work with are just garden variety/ cannon fodder,

  sacrafical caught in the maxtrix types.

  As clueless as the next american or world consumer.

  My comments might be more coherent if I could post paragraphs.

  whether they make sense or not is up to you, the reader.

  As politely as I can say it.

  I highly expect you are trolling by asking the question.

  But I know you are not a troll.

  So I say you are generating traffic and interest and company.

  Collecting data, noting who is awake and who is sleeping.

  did you feel guilty over your sexual feelings or actions, while you were a jw?

  the watchtower always wasnts people to feel guilty.

  i know of many witnesses that would pioneer or volunteer for something, as an act of penance for their sexual sins or desires, even if they were married!.

  It seems like many religions that derive from the catholic church and the bible.

  Thrive on guilt and penace.

  I would say the Catholic church is Jehovahs witnesses light.

  But since the catholic church is the original that doesn't really make sense.

  The church is a coconspirator with the wealthy in controlling the masses.

  and in that you find your conspiracy and conpiracies.

  Just read a high school history book of the world, aka World history 101.

  From the begining of history in Sumer 3,500 years ago.

  Let me clarify, the begining of recorded history.

  They are not sneaking into Canada. It is too far and too hard to get into.

  And Canadians don't seem as willing to be raped, financially that is.

  The only thing bad about Canada is the wheather.

  Canada must not have all the programs that attract illegal imigrants.

  Plus the ones from South and Central America, like the heat, they don't like the cold.

  They are not going to Canada, even if you feed and shelter and medicate them for free.

  They don't like the cold.

  The southern accent has improved a lot over the years.

  My mother was born in Atlanta in the 30's and you and I could not understand my

  mother or her family my aunts uncles and grand parents.

  I was born in Cleveland Ohio, where we don't have an accent.

  Clevelanders talked in the 60's like the national news casters or professional broadcasters.

  But nowdays people from Atlanta speak pretty good, well.

  I asked my aunt how she learned to talk.

  She said we had to learn to speak to get good jobs dealing with the public.

  A southern accent is cool, but it is a detriment to many kinds of 21st century employment opportunities.

  You are not going to call a call center and talk to someone with a southern accent.

  Call centers are the 21st centuries answer to automobile manufacturing and manufacturing in general.

  Its where the bulk of modern jobs are in the USA.

  Having a southern accent and getting a good job is like trying to sell insurance covered with tatoos.

  Ha. I got rid of carpenter ants at our cottage in the Laurentians by......

  sealing off the windows , backing my van up to the house, hooking a plastic pipe to my exhaust that went to one window, taped that up, started the van, and went for a swim. Bye-bye carpenter ants and spiders.

  I wonder if that would work for termites?

  What Would It Take To Prove......

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a hypothetical question.. at a minimum, what evidence would it take to prove that the society is trying to quietly shed publishers?.

  now, i don't think we have evidence of this yet but that doesn't mean it could never happen.

  we must consider where the trends of magazine/literature cuts, branch office sales, coerced contributions, bethel/do layoffs, and emphasis on jw.org lead us.. otoh, you might argue that there would never be a deliberate move to get rid of them, just moves that discreetly abandon them.

  Why would they want to shed publishers?

  They are more likely to hide the money and try to increase the money flow into the organization.

  I am against illegal immigrants.

  It is a problem started by Bush and the republicans.

  But Obama has dropped the ball and is responsible also.

  Who can you vote for to change it?

  I voted democrat because of the terrible job Bush and Channey did.

  And now Obama is following in their footsteps.

  You cant win.

  But we know and knew that.

  The key word is illegal.

  My great grandparents had to apply for citizenship and come over on a boat from Germany

  and go through Ellis Island.

  Also they had to be sponsered, if they could not provide for themself, the sponsor was responsible.

  My Great Great Grandfather came over sponsered by a German industrialist who sponsered many Germans.

  I know there has to be some rich Mexicans that can sponser Mexicnas.

  Taco bell, Chipoltes, Moes Southwest Grill, Del Taco.

  Let them sponser their amigos and do it legally.
