  You can see the last days in anything if you are looking for it. Things keep rolling on. The left has been pushing the fake crap of global warming and its the end of the world. Remember when Ted Danson said 20 years ago that the seas would die in 10 years? Or in the 70s when the fake news said that there was a global cooling. Death and destruction sell. This is why the Enquirer sells so well even though its nothing but BS.

  Is this video about U.S. hospitals really true?

  by The Fall Guy in

  the reason i ask is that i got a call from a friend last week who had to go to one of the biggest hospitals in scotland because of an eye injury.. he said there wasn't one other single person seeking medical attention when he walked in - only medical staff standing around with nothing to do.

  i was astounded, given the media reports.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=180&v=uzxhwyrkqtk&feature=emb_logo.

  I have seen a few videos of people sneaking into hospitals that are supposed to be over run and there is no one there or very few people. Not sure if there is any truth to it but we hear about the over run but I have not seen any thing to back it up. Something to keep an eye on.

  Covid 19, is this the WT new push to bring back ex JW's before the end of the system?

  not sure if this was covered as i could not find anything on it but talking to my son he tells me one of the gb had a talk telling them this is a sign of the last days.

  have the jw's being pressured into talking to relatives and friends to bring them back into the fold before the end of the system blah blah blah?

  the reason why i ask is my son was saying his mother has being on his case the last few weeks and then two days ago i got a telephone message from my sister, that hasn't spoke to me in 4 years, asking how i am doing.

  Need help - How do you determine whether to show a JW the truth or not?

  how do you determine whether to show a jw the truth or not?.

  now some of you still believe in the bible.

  to you the answer would be obvious - we preach to anyone as much as possible.

  Unless you know them very well and even then I doubt I would unless you are ready for trouble. Don't do it except one on one that way you can deny deny deny. If you don't care if you get the stink eye then go for it.

  Remember the Revelation book?

  by wozza in

  i recall when it was released ,that's when i was a drone, how excited i felt at the prospect of reading it and formulating ways to sell it at the homes in my area.. i thought, finally a book to explain the last book in the bible and indeed one that the churches seemed to want to leave alone!.

  i sold quite a few probably because of my enthusiasm and can still remember clearly the first day when i went knocking on doors with it ,and it's been decades since.. but over time it lost it's shine and my mind started to question the explanations in it due to the scene of other things being changed in the jw beliefs.. do you remember they flogged that book so many times in the book studies even when it was found to have "newer light " eclipsing it!.

  who else remembers the printed pages with the official corrections to insert into the book ,so many that the book collapsed to be of no relevance anymore really.....what an embarrassment!.

  Most witnesses do not stay in because of the belief in the end as much as for the social networking. I know many elders who are only in because they like being a big fish in a little pond. Getting up and giving talks and having the old blue hairs tell them they give such good talks bla bla bla.

  Do you have any evidence that the GB had bad intent?

  do you have any evidence that the gb had bad intent?

  as opposed to blind faith/cognitive dissonance and honest mistakes.. i'm inclined to think they have the best of intentions and are just wrong (primarily because the bible is wrong), but i'm willing to consider the evidence otherwise..

  I think they know that some of what they are doing is total BS. But they have their own interests at heart.

  Its not the point that some may have a CEO that wants to do the right thing. Do you really want to depend on some CEO and his good will? That is ridiculous, regulation is the only way to hold their feet to the fire. What you are saying is tantamount to there are alot of people who don't want to rob banks so we don't need laws making it illegal.

  You can not get mad at a corporation. They will save your mothers life is it makes them a dime or slit her throat if it makes them a dime. Money is the bottom line of any successful corp. It would be like getting mad that a tiger bit your arm off. Its what they do. What you should be mad at and this is coming form a moderate Republican is be mad at the political system that does not regulate them. The idea of Laissez faire Capitalism regulating itself is ridiculous. It does not work no more than Communism works. The lefts idea to punish business just because they make money is just as stupid. To successfully regulate business the only way is to take out money of elections. Stop allowing corporations giving money or even non profits, no pac money nothing but an individual giving up to say 1500 dollars. People V United was one of the worst SC rulings in a while.
