  They need MORE $$$$$

  by TallTexan in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i haven't been to a meeting in years, but i was recently told by a friend of mine that they have really been hammering the 'use of your valuable things in support of the kingdom' in many of the talks and thursday night parts.

  i know they used to mention it all the time, but he said it's gotten really bad lately.

  i told him that's because the membership in the western (translate that to "richer"...lol) countries has really fallen off and even become negative in many countries and that the 3rd world countries can't contribute enough to support the great publishing empire.

  while many events are being postponed and cancelled because of the corona virus, isn't it surprising that democrat rallies are continuing?

  .

  how about jw circuit assemblies?.

  Taking into account the older demographic in the organisation, you would think that they would get their house in order very quickly wouldn't you?? Or is the bubble so thick that they just can't see out at what is going on outside.

  Shame on you you conceited old GB farts, you should be stopped all meetings, assemblies and field service weeks ago.

  Islamophobia & anti-Semitism

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. social
  2. current

  the muslim council of britain and uk jewish organisations want the uk government to enshrine into law their perceptions of what kind of speech constitutes islamophobia or anti-semitism/hate crime.

  should british christians follow suit?

  in the movies & on tv we constantly hear actors shout out, "jesus christ.

  This is just another click in the ratchet of islamification. Our only hope is to use these laws against them by having the Quran and other islamic holy writings declared hate speech and banned.

  Tulsi Gabbard would surely be the best candidate by a mile to stand against Trump.

  Errrr... I believe it was written by Jeffrey Isbell, AKA as Izzy Stradlin, co-founder of Guns N' Roses.

  Good cover by The Heimatdamisch though. I like this version also

  Servant_X - Was this outline recreated or is it a new outline format?

  Maybe every one of these letters had very minor differences and when the leek is published they know the source of the leak by the deliberately introduced irregularities in the leaked letter!

  Covid-19 (Coronavirus) - Status Update Thread

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  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.

  My point of concern is that this possibility has been on the radar for a long time, if you follow this kind of stuff you would know that it is overdue. Have you noticed how most health authorities have been reactionary - shutting the borders after the contagion has entered and not pro actively shutting the borders in early.

  Anybody health official who was watching closely should have got the message in December that this could be the big one and we had better get serious right now.

  Many people are saying that it is just another flu, wrong flu typically hospitalizes 0.2 percent of it's patients, the hospitalisation rate for this one appears to be around 12% with half of those requiring an intensive care bed.

  How many intensive care beds are there in your city? - Not many and most of them are already full most of the time. Take it seriously friends, I think that this will be the main punctuating event of our lives.

  Fall Guy - What about the persecution of Muslims in India?

  it's not persecution, only a long overdue and inevitable push back.

  Vidiot - Like the Org gives a shit about persecuted Muslims.

  - They never even get a mention as they are a far away Brown people that don't convert, cause lots of problems if they do convert and have nothing to give anyway.

  JoenB75 - So rare muslims are persecuted. Christians are persecuted throughout the third world.

  - And it's always muslims doing the persecution, real persecution, killing, rape, burning crops and villages etc. not petty persecution like in Russia. Have you ever heard the WT acknowledge persecution of Christians by muslims?

  Circuit Overseer to Answer My Questions + Concerns...or Not

  by Research in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  hello all, i'm 'researching', a jw who is in the first steps of taking a look at their beliefs.. i've semi-recently (about a couple weeks ago) heard about the sexual abuse cases (pennsylvania attorney general’s investigation request) and then the arc in 2015. this lead to a deep investigation, which lead to many questions arising.

  a jw friend of mine suggested i be careful (due to apostates) and ask the brothers.

  so i typed up my questions + concerns and emailed an elder my mother has known for a long time.
