CBD does not have any thc, or undetectable levels thereof. Its a non issue.
Medicinal mary jane has been accepted.
Recreational J’s are a still a no no, although how thats different that knocking back a few shots the lords whiskey is beyond me.

Bank Bail-Out / Bail-In
by Simon inremember the last financial crisis, where there as a bail-out of the banks?.
have you ever stopped to think what the "out" part of bail-out means?
normally you think of bailing water out of a boat, or maybe jumping out of a plane, but in financial terms the "out" means "outside money".

This is correct. A youtuber (and very smart financial guy) named George Gammon does a lot of videos covering this in very simple, basic terms.

JWs are bigger and more successful than the Mormon church
by joe134cd injust saw the following you tube video.
it’s 3 hours long, but thoroughly interesting.
if you want to save yourself 3 hours, basically the active mormon church is about 3 million.

If everywhere were Scotland we would all have cool accents, kilts and failed livers…. But since everywhere isnt Scotland, your “extensive local research” is indicative of nothing more than just that, “local research”. You are free to use any stat you’d like, up to and including the number of angels on the head of a pin, as the basis of your conclusion, but dont expect to be taken seriously

Three and a half more years of Biden ...
by LoveUniHateExams inhow is the biden administration doing so far?.
biden reversed trump's plans for the border wall, and now america has thousands of illegal immigrants entering from mexico.. strangely, biden didn't reverse trump's plans for withdrawal from afghanistan, and instead pressed ahead with his own brand of lunacy, literally running away from afghanistan and abandoning its people to the taliban.. what is it with biden?
is he senile or just incompetent?

I find it hard to believe you are counting congregations as a measure of anything. There are no fixed or set limits on congregation size in any of the church's, therefore comparing the numbers of congregations is comparative of nothing. There is no standard by a comparison can be made. Number of individual adherents is all you can accurately use

Afghanistan-Kabul falls to Taliban - U.S. Embassy staff evacuated by helicopter
by fulltimestudent inin a scene reminiscent of the fall of saigon, the usa embassy staff have been evacuated by helicopter.. for a third time in asia ( a fourth, if you count usa supported chiang kai shek's defeat in mainland china) usa supported forces have been defeated.
more than 1 trillion dollars wasted and a huge deathtoll (both sides) afghanistan is back to where it started,.
will the taliban behave differently this time ?

Why would the chi coms care about their prestige anywhere in the world except china? What a bizarre POV, and one not shared by the chi coms I assure you.
