someone made reference in another post that the awake magazine had ceased publication.
maybe i missed it since i have not been on here as much in the last 6 months.
is this true?
Good news that makes me happy.

anyone watching this?
it's an australian production with the actress who plays lady edith in downton abbey.. great drama.. there was a surprise mention of jehovah's witnesses in episode 2. we just started watching episode 3 and, well, they are going to hate the kind of publicity this gives them!.
it will build on the terrible reputation they have after the commission investigating abuse within organisations, which the wts tried to obstruct and obfuscate their responsibilities in.. well worth watching as a drama in it's own right, but especially as a potential talking point about the wts.. on cbc in canada..
I found it on line and quickly looked though episode 2 but failed to pick up on the JW bit, would you share the juicy bit please. https://vimeo.com/438449918

its been strangely quiet on here lately about covid..or isnt it news any more.
the " not a pandemic" brigade have been noticably absent about the situation in india..
Masks and lockdowns has worked very well here in Australia. Life is almost normal here now.

i am in need of the current copy of the newest dpa blood card as some of the jw's in my mothers congregation are asking about if she signed the latest copy after she passed today.
i am curious as to why they are asking about this specifically and not offering condolences on the loss of my mother.
there has been some shady interactions leading to my mother requesting me to talk to certain elders to request that certain people not interact with her further.
I think Stan is on the money.

so i see some very counter intuitive videos on how there is no over population issue.
that the world will grow to about 11 billion and stop.
well that would be the first time in human history that population just stopped.
The best solution was on the HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy, where they built three spaceships. They put the useless people on the 3rd, and "let them go first" ...
You beat me to it - Golgafrincham Ark Fleet, Ship B - with all the second class used car salesmen, telephone sanitisers, hairdressers, TV producers, insurance salesmen etc... well, you know how that ended.

something i've noticed is that marriage was the thing for those born before 2010. but today's culture of divorce laws slanted to favor women has forced men to think carefully before signing the marriage certificate.
most of my friends have no intentions of getting married.
all of them have gotten vasectomies, so there is no chance of being blamed for a pregnancy.
OP - Most of my friends have no intentions of getting married. All of them have gotten vasectomies....
I think this is the new trend for the upcoming generations.
Is this GOOD or BAD FOR SOCIETY, what do you all think?
Back in 2007 the EU reproduction rate had fallen to 1.38 children per couple; it had been in decline for some time and is probably lower now
If you fail to reproduce, you throw a huge spanner in the works of the banker’s business model as their fractional reserve banking / create money out of nothing... and then loan it to you at interest skimming scam, breaks down. It needs a constantly expanding population base, otherwise the Ponzi scheme falls over.
I wonder if all of your friends would have followed the same course if they were aware of the bankers solution.
The banker’s solution involves replacing the native populations of European countries (first) with people that have a higher fertility rate (also dept free), that just happen to me mostly muslim and to hell with the consequences for the natives.
I'm just a racist, right... well here is a smoking gun on the UN website for you to investigate - https://www.un.org/en/development/desa/population/publications/ageing/replacement-migration.asp
some call it reverse discrimination.
whatever you want to refer to as, in your opinion, are white people being unfairly picked on?
it seems acceptable that if you are white you are viewed with disdain.
Critical Race Theory, Just another manifestation of Cultural Marxism.

i overheard mrs eyeslice listening to '2021 governing body update 3' yesterday.
apparently, they have started ditching foreign language groups and congregations as these weren't exactly roping anyone in.
of course there is a positive spin on all this - '4,000 plus elders freed up to serve in local language congregations' and of course there has been immensely positive feedback from various branches about the benefits of this.. i suspect though there will be an awful lot of elders who were serving as king pins in these congregations who are going to have their noses put out by going back to local language congregations where they will barely be used.
Great news!

someone gets shot and or killed and hundreds of people decide to loot and destroy businesses or whatever else is in their path.
what does this do to make things better?
i really don’t get how they think it makes things better or solves anything..

apparently , some bright spark has created a new sexuality - super-straight - and posted it on twitter.
it's a new sexuality that means people who are exclusively attracted to cisgender males or females.
it was made because some people are saying you aren't straight if you don't date transgender people.
Cultural Marxism.
