  LOL.

  Well, if he's communicating with shady foreign agents that the NSA happens to be monitoring, then yeah, they would be "spying" on those communications.

  Seems to be an on-air confession of guilt.

  do you think trump will run again for president or do you think he will just be a force for the republican party behind the scenes?.

  I don't generally like to post twitter on here, but this is too good to pass over.

  TL:DR - Trump is toast.

  Less than a generation ago , each edition of Awake was 32 pages long, and it was printed 24 times a year. 768 pages per year.

  In 2022, there will be one magazine of 16 pages.

  In other words, a reduction in annual content of 98%.

  Considering that for the past 8-10 years the magazines have been little more than bullet-pointed listicles with huge margins and giant photos on every page, the actual content reduction is well over 99%.

  Why even bother anymore?

  And so it begins:

  https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-organization-and-cfo-allen-weisselberg-expected-to-be-charged-thursday-11625060765?mod=hp_lead_pos2

  This is of course just the tip of the iceberg.

  Standard operating procedure, when there are multiple criminal charges to be filed, is to begin with the "low-hanging fruit" - the easiest, less serious cases. As the defendants refuse to cooperate, the more serious stuff follows.

  The charges tomorrow center on tax evasion, but note this:

  The tax-related investigation is part of a broader criminal probe into whether the Trump Organization and its officers overvalued and undervalued its assets on loan, tax and insurance documents for financial gain

  I.e., a "broader criminal probe" into bank fraud. That is a felony that can carry 10 or more years in the penitentiary.

  I wonder the line is on whether Weisselberg will flip?

  "Young people ask" book claims 97% youth masturbatory or seen porn...not J.W youth??

  by Witness 007 in

  2. experiences

  as a youg man this stunned me when i studied the original "youth" book 97% had done it so i thought soo that's pretty much everyone i guess the 3% were witness youth!

  also "awake" claimed 90% of students had accessed porn at some time.

  everyone is doing it i guess 10% are the witness youth...how dumb was i?.

  97% had done it

  Statistically speaking, that means that 3% are liars.

  If you could pick out critical errors to the JWS religion what would it be ?

  by Rocketman123 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  many that have come to this forum have left the jws religion and moved on with their lives but from a outsider's viewpoint what do think makes the jws religion wrong or incorrect as a active christian faith ?.

  somethings come to mind such as its long continuous end times/armageddon soon doctrine which has really been a core doctrine for decades going right back to its beginning .. maybe they should have adopted the stance as other christian based faiths and adhered to jesus's own words when he said " no one knows of the time not even he ".

  Good gravy, there's so much to choose from.

  Just picking one at random, one thing that bugs me every time I read it in their "literature": The idea of "qualifying" for eternal life, and that such "qualification" is tied entirely to the degree of "obedience" one exhibits.

  I'm certainly no Biblical scholar, but even a cursory uneducated reading of the new testament does not lead one to the conclusion that the promise of eternal life is something that one "qualifies" for based on "obedience".

  After his most recent (June 27th) attacks on two of his staunchest allies, (Barr and McConnell,)

  Good lord, did you see the one from today (June 29)?

  "Unhinged" doesn't even scratch the surface. Words fail me.

  Suppose we'd better get used to it though. Imagine what he'll say once the indictments start.

  It's the "convention invitation campaign".

  The idea is that you, dear householder, will be so enthralled by the invitation that you will eagerly leap at the chance to watch old men with little to no charisma or public speaking ability blather on about topics tangentially related to the Bible. The hope is that you will reply to the invitation, and then they will send you a link to watch a streamed recording of those old men blathering (no in-person conventions in 2021, just as there were none in 2020).

  Anywhere from 95 to 98% of the program will be incomprehensible gobbledy-gook to non-JWs, but hey, gotta get their "time" in.

  It will save time and be less painful to just pound your forehead with a ball peen hammer.
