  We should refer to it as the "Rejection Memorial" or "Voyeur Memorial" from now on, and get PIMI JW's to jump-start their thinking processes.

  Or simply ask them, "Why are you compelled to be a spectator at a ritual which is none of your business? A single Bible verse or principle will suffice."

  Scottish independence vote promised - yet again!

  by The Fall Guy in

  1. social
  2. current

  first minister nicola sturgeon is a) promising another independence vote and b) saying that an independent scotland would apply to join the e.u.. independent from england, but a vassal state of the e.u.. if it unfolds the way she wants it to, get ready for a scotland-england backstop argument for a hard border/soft border, followed by england refusing to allow scotland to continue using sterling as its currency.

  not to mention scots arguing amongst themselves whether to keep the queen as head of state or not.

  happy days ahead!

  The UK Bethelites are now essentially part of the smokescreen for enforcing/encouraging donations out of UK JW's.

  Absolutely no justification or need for maintaining an expensive UK Branch complex when Selters in Germany serves the whole of Europe now.

  Back in the mid-2000's, Ron Drage (prominent UK Branch official) informed Brother Greenlees (very prominent JW in Scotland) that the organization had serious financial problems, but said he was sure it would be successfully dealt with.

  Brother Greenlees shared this info with a dyed-in-the-wool JW who was also a close friend of mine.

  The money-grab is continuing apace - must be due to the hundreds/thousands of new KH's being built for free in 3rd world countries. Isn't the generosity/love of "Jehovah's organization" wonderful to see!

  Active JW's: Sorry to be a party-pooper, but I have yet to see/hear all the wonderful reports of these KH projects which poor JW's couldn't afford by themselves. Try asking your BOE to find out. :)

  This is the restrained Catholic view on the "historic" meeting:

  https://www.catholicnews.com/services/englishnews/2019/pope-meets-top-leaders-of-church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter-day-saints.cfm

  The Mormons read a helluva lot more into it:

  https://www.lds.org/church/news/president-nelson-meets-with-pope-francis-at-the-vatican?lang=eng

  The LDS President Ballard said, “We could not have asked for a more fulfilling experience. We were grateful that he would receive us.”

  Isn't it nice of God's chosen representatives on earth (the LDS' 12 Prophets) to be so condescending to the religious leader of a false religion?

  i’m not asking whether you believe in the bible.

  i just want your opinion as to whether you think the bible teaches it.

  i don’t, for what it’s worth..

  Since the Roman Catholic Church originated the formal Trinity doctrine, I feel that they provide the best summary of it:

  "St. Jerome says, in a well-known phrase: "The true profession of the mystery of the Trinity is to own that we do not comprehend it"

  "Moreover, our Lord's words, Matthew 11:27, "No one knoweth the Son, but the Father," seem to declare expressly that the plurality of Persons in the Godhead is a truth entirely beyond the scope of any created intellect. The Fathers supply many passages in which the incomprehensibility of the Divine Nature is affirmed."

  If it's a mystery which is incomprehensible and entirely beyond the scope of all created intellect......
