there was a time when the society was very skeptical about the internet and the so-called lies and apostate information that was out there.
it sort of was something to be avoided.
over the past ten years, however, it seems they have taken to it with a passion.
The people with no internet will be in the same boat as those who used to not have a quarter for a magazine. Could have been saved except we cant give a mag away. Did anyone really think it cost 25 cents to print one mag?
I heard one person tell someone to look JW com. That brings you here
why are for the most part brown-colored people held in detention centers?
where are the rest of illegal immigrants?i think the question is valid -- as one website noted: "the u.s. government does not maintain reliable demographics of who is in immigration detention..." (https://www.freedomforimmigrants.org/detention-statistics).
a canadian woman not too long ago said to me (spontaneously - i did not bring up the subject) the following words when she heard the live tv news broadcast, which dealt about the immigrants being held at dozens of detention centers in usa: "i am canadian, and i have been living here illegally for 29 years.
The flow across the Mexican border is WAY bigger than any other. Add in that it is a darling for news right now
is this a bad joke or "fake news"?.
nbc new york is claiming "attorneys are expected on monday to announce the filing of lawsuits in king's county supreme court against eight members of the governing body of the jehovah's witnesses for alleged child sexual abuse claims.".
eventhough i would enjoy to see this happen i am very suspiciouse concerning nbcs reliability with this case.. https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/happening-today-nj-water-cosby-appeal-epstein-probe-536740491.html.
Remember to turn off the tv when any apostate stuff comes on. So no one will see it
i had gotten a phone call from a brother who was really upset.
he said there was a resolution passed that everyone is in agreement to the selling of the elmira hall.
the strange thing is at the congregation picnic an elder told him that a few years ago the deed to the hall was signed over to the org.
Not done to parliamentary procedures in most cases. There are laws about resolutions that are ignored. Kind of a kangaroo vote. I knew one old time who commented on the waste of time because everyone just followed along
........so far to date.

Happy at Bethel was worse
so.. you are a jw or studying, living your life and doing your bit, feverish of spreading the good news to everyone that will listen!.
you prep yourself for meetings, doing your ministry and applying all that there is into your daily life.. so....i have a question... you know... my clogs.
when you where completely in the religion, did you ever think about the impact of your way of life and religion towards others, specially those that lived around you such as good friends or family members that didn’t studied?
I did go to weddings, funerals, even church bazaars. The line was drawn at participating

Easy choice. Put on jeans and go to work with friends or put on a necktie and knock on doors accompanied by who knows
there's been quite a number newspaper articles quoted over the past week, but i would recommend this as a good summary of the first three days of the royal commission hearing in australia - complete with some scathing commentary.. apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, but have not seen this posted previously.. https://www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/law-crime/2015/08/01/royal-commission-examines-jehovah-witnesses-cover/14383512002194.
just one thing that is not quite right is that the article refers to joe bello as a narrogin elder.
the assualts took place while the victim was part of the narrogin congregation.
The expand your vocabulary posting. I enjoy learning words ( and look at origins) now to see if any of these words show up at the hall
when any mass shooting happens is it the president’s fault?
i’m talking over the last few decades..
Should we put children with their families in open campuses with unvetted young males?
Remember the big earthquakes in Italy and other places? The relief effort was overwhelmed so people lived in tents or less for months. Same for the REAL refugees in the middle east and Africa
Nobody ever said to 8gnore the others who sneak in or overstay. But it is a fact that a predominate number come across the mexican border.
No one on here has proposed closing the border, vetting those already here and legalizing them. When I am dictator that is what I will do. LOL. And only people I like can have guns

Pete. If dems want the border secured why do they want open borders. Cant have both. As for compassionate, the funding for detention is not adequate, lots of citizens are separated from kids when they go to army, jail. You name it.
The wall may be ineffective but ALL nations have walls, sometimes to keep people in.
Obama may well be a charming speaker, but to me he is a snake oil salesman, Trump is more a blunt doctor who speaks his mind.
