How can people be so obtuse to this cult? Why on earth would you play with a copperhead and think you can not get bit?

Of course they want to convert your kids Jeezzzzzz. First off they are not your friends. You are potential converts. Cut them off now and don't look back or you will potentially have issues. As kids grow up they become rebellious and if you tell them as teens not to have anything to do with them the cult will tell them you are part of Satan's world and they don't need to listen to you. You will live to regret it if you don't cut them off now.

Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

by Simon in

jw

this topic is to focus on status updates & advice (no opinion or politics please).. status.

latest status is that it's serious, probably isn't going to be contained and most large companies are making contingency plans, cancelling large events etc... which i don't think would happen if it was just people being alarmist.

the incubation period means it may have already spread further and infected many more people than are currently known, so expect jumps in the numbers over the coming days and weeks.. tracking.

Just buy bleach and put a cup in a spray bottle with the rest water and it will kill all things.

Can we really talk about BEAUTY?

can we really talk about beauty?

(first, a necessary preamble.

bear with me, please.

JimmyYoung

beauty is an individual thing. It is not something you can explain. Nor should anyone try to. Its like , The phrase was used in 1964 by United States Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart to describe his threshold test for obscenity in Jacobellis v. Ohio.[1][2] In explaining why the material at issue in the case was not obscene under the Roth test, and therefore was protected speech that could not be censored, Stewart wrote: I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description ["hard-core pornography"], and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that.

Interesting piece about Stephen Lett and family: property developers

by Diogenesister in

another very well researched programme by the blue envelope exploring stephen lett's bio and his family interest in property.

interestingly his parents were pioneering until the new service year 1975 , when they immediately changed tack and began investing in properties along the gulf coast.

once again, highly recommended veiwing.. https://youtu.be/9qh0jbvsdrc.
