Sometimes I wonder if in addition to my regular conscious mind I have a second conscious mind.
I think we all do but religious convictions and adherence (ignorance) puts a restraining locked door to that available capability.
Open and unrestrained thinking capability is advantageous and necessary to humanity's very survival.
Lets keep it that way !
do you think he could get reinstated as president?
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?.
Trump most likely will be dealing with law suits levied against him come the next election.
After what he has been seen responsible for such as the attempted insurrection, the chances of him getting chosen again by the Republican party is nil to none.
As another observation, being that his business empire has been recently crumbling beneath himself, I would think he would be personally active into trying to keep it and himself afloat rather than to try and go back into politics and the Presidency.
folks: as you probably all know, it has been speculated that the whole universe, or cosmos, started with what has been called "the big bang.
" but, i've thought up some other terms for the "bb".
how about the big boom....or, the big kaboom....or, the big explosion...the big ignition...or...the big cosmic fartation.
" The Beginning "
But what instigated the capability of that beginning ?

The very reason that so many men in the past and even today say they are being spirit directed from god is that it actually becomes an appealing delusion, which most of them see that it beneficial for themselves and perhaps others.
The supporting factor to that delusion is the observably amount of real power and money that these men obtain into usable practice.
This therefore makes for an appealing and valued delusion indeed.
Its good all good is it not ?
the following is a conversation i had with my pimi father regarding a news segment on tv dealing with csa.
joe: that’s terrible the incidences of csa happening in the community.
dad: yes it is.
Ironic is it not that the JWS religion has been covering up incidences of CSA just like other religious institutions such as the Catholics.
One thing to note is that the Catholics at least have taken assertive steps to make sure these incidences don't reoccur while the JWS have done little, except enforced to by outside public law regulations.
anybody know something about vat 4956?.
nebuchadnezzar's 37th year matches the year 588 bc?
any independant astronomer can test it and it only matches 568 bc.. .
One thing to note about JWS and 607 BCE is that if you are going to be an accepted member and identified in good standing you have to agree and support 607 BCE., which includes agreeing with 1914.
Isn't that right Scholar ?
Lets see his reply.
So if people are wondering why this guy isn't being intellectually honest in light of all the pertaining available information, there's your answer.

Just to clarify what is CSA ?

Rutherford made an earnest effort to the retain the organization as it was after Russell had died.
Sure his endeavors were corrupt and devious but he knew that in doing so he would immerse himself in a great amount of power and money.
His personal endeavors laid the foundational groundwork for the organization in the years to follow and that included lying and corruptly deceiving people though coercion and exploitation.
the universe came into being 13.8 billion years ago in the big bang.
after an initial flash, it went through a period known as the cosmic dark ages.
according to a new study, probing cosmic dawn, 250 to 350 million years after the big bang the first stars emerged bringing light to the cosmos.
The same Bible verse says And God said:
......Let there be a Big Bang and there was a big bang !
i live with my parents in law and yesterday, my mother in-law was very nervous about an email she got from the brothers in her congregation.
it was asking if she would be able to receive people over at our house should there be a catastrophe.
so, she asked me if i would agree with this.
Fearmongering to control people, what a fucked up religion.
(Pardon the french)
