everything is closing.
food stores are bustling!
no one can gather in big groups.. if you get this virus do you think you will get very very sick and possibly die?
It appears (so far) that the elderly are the most vulnerable in society - especially if they have other health issues which will put them at greater risk. Also, people whose immune system is currently weakened (for whatever reason) really need to take heed of all the health warnings being given, as well as avoiding larger crowds.
For everyone else - Tom Hanks included - it has similarities to a 'flu virus.

2020 march 12, letter--coronavirus--memorial.
Thanks Atlantis & Petra.
You keep providing us with food at the proper time - even before the bewildered & bemused in KH's get it!
today all jw's in holland are informed that all meetings, the preaching work and the circuits are halted / closed because of sars-covid-19 / "corona".
first till march, 30 and then maybe longer.. the first time that the jw work in holland completely stopped.
the memorial will be held only for jw's.
As Mr. Burns would say, "Excellent!"
the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (iicsa) is holding a public hearing in the child protection in religious organisations and settings investigation for the next two weeks.
the provisional timetable for the first week was released today: https://www.iicsa.org.uk/key-documents/17795/view/2020-03-12-cpiros-public-hearing-week-one-timetable.pdf .
five witnesses will testify on the jw issue next thursday, 19 march:.
Paul Gillies, Director of the Office of Public Information of the World Headquarters of Jehovah's Witnesses." LOL. Director of Public Propaganda, more like!
I've still got a recording of my telephone conversation with that slimy snake when he was at Mill Hill, London. I asked him why JW's were delegates at the convention of a worldly political-military organisation, the O.S.C.E. https://www.osce.org/whatistheosce
He wriggled & squirmed like a lying politician as he tried to justify the org's association with the OSCE. Be warned, IICSA - Paul Gillies' slitheriness will have you cringing.
I hope they nail him the same way the Australian Royal Commission did to the JW's.
my wife pimi wife said today...." the tribulation has started" i was like wtf... i know things are bad.
but...... we have had other pandamics and market crashes in the past.
1889: russian flu 360,000 perished.
GTTM: ask your wife -
a) why the self-proclaimed 'faithful slave' opposes & contradicts Jesus who said that the great tribulation of Matthew 24:21 would never occur again. (What exactly did he mean by "never"?)
b) The great tribulation of Revelation 7:14 is contextually referring to the same one mentioned earlier at Revelation 2:22, so why does the hierarchy cross-reference Rev. 7:14 with Matt. 24:21, instead of with Rev. 2:22? (Two different G.T.'s are being discussed)
How can the org's 'tribulation' kick off with Babylon the Great being destroyed if the judgment starts first with the house of God? (1 Peter 4:17)

it turns out the lds church has about $38b in stocks and mutual funds from major companies such as apple, microsoft, amazon, walmart and others.
they also have numerous dummy corporations to hold assests with a combined value of $32b.
Thanks SBF. 10% of gross earnings - tax free - is a helluva nice little earner for any enterprise!
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.
People are accused of being anti-semitic if they have merely expressed a dissenting view of the Israeli government.
There is a big difference between the two.
people in the uk who apply for a blue badge (parking permit for disabled people) on the government web site, are asked to select one of three options regarding their gender:.
1. male .
2. female.
People in the UK who apply for a Blue Badge (parking permit for disabled people) on the government web site, are asked to select one of three options regarding their gender:
1. Male
2. Female
3. Self Identifying
Perhaps this news story about two female transexuals who both changed into males and then changed back into females will get more people to reassess the "Emperor's new clothes" mentality regarding genuine gender.

If someone demands the right to "self-identify" as a hamster, fine, let them call themselves whatever they want to, but don't vilify/criminalise me by taking away my right to say that a man is a man and a hamster is a hamster!
just in case anyone needed this.. 2020-march-announcements and reminders.

Thanks again Atlantis.
@ Slim: maybe the cult is hoping for a sudden windfall - countless legacies being grabbed in 2020 thanks to the coronavirus prematurely ending the lives of many older JW's who've named the cult in their wills.
