there was a time we could laugh about mindless silly things.
someone using an ethnic accent, making fun of their own race, making fun of someone’s intelligent, etc.
we could laugh without feeling constantly offended , upset or disturbed.
Yes. Little is funny, most if is mean spirited. Examples: Carlin, I didnt like his vulgar speech, but could appreciate the dirty word routine, the god and money remarks
Red Skelton: super patriot, failed to recognize that at even good government can err
Colbert: went so left he is not worth watching, no w of the laughing at ourselves anymore
i have been in two congregations where someone moved in from the big city and took over with the attitude of the northerners when they go south, i come from where they do it right.
like bulls in china shops they remove people and do the house cleaning like the political org cult it is.
.
Here the only time new elders came in they were assigned, and they were decent men. Unfortunately they died young.
I knew 2 city slickers who moved south and took over, from what I know of them they were not bullies though.
There was an assembly experience where a family moved from California to small town Nebraska; they were not lonesome as they brought friends in too, so it became little kalifornia.
That latter experience is not limited to congregations. People flee Calif ( or wherever) bring inflated house money ey which runs local costs up, and then try to impose their attitude ( usually the reasons they left) on the whole community
psychological changes in the vocabulary of the wts.
i have been reading the publications of the wts since i was 6, 60 years now.
we were too poor to have more than one subscription for each magazine so i had to wait until my mother had read it (she let them pile up).
That well paying job....those are the ones with a reliable paid for car and own a home so they can downsize
I know where literature is hidden from times past. It is all outdated, except for the green bible
what are you resolved to do if under ban?.
i wonder how many people were thinking about how that would be a great excuse to leave!
finally, a good out, you were just too afraid of the persecution.
They forgot to mention the money laundering part in Russia. There is no way to speak lucidly with the present doctrines, so there goes casual conversations. A good way to fade: from the past scenarios anyone with health issues would have to miss, then not have information on the next clandestine meeting place and time. Over half of the service group leaders are incompetent so will never be able to perform. I would be able to keep people fed, housed, in contact, but am not spiritually qualified as I do not turn in 10 hours
may have been noted already.
i didnt find the comments on this wt looking back.
it struck me funny they would comment on anyone making rules; if anyone knows how to make rules it is wt.

some democrats are zealously pushing the impeachment route to get rid of trump.
even if you don’t like him, do you support impeachment proceedings?.
Just so long as they dont do anything constructive. I thought Bush 2 was n insipid fool, but maybe the better path was to not do things
O, Clintons, and recent dems surely are guilty of real high crimes but will never see any sanctions
i admit i have a soft spot for leonard cohen's music.
i had a customer come in who sings for funerals, he just told me his most requested is cohen's "hallelujah".
a good friend used to sing it at christmas in her church!
I thought the most requested was he will long for the work of his own hands ( or whatever the name is) sung by teletubbies
Actually I think that abomination is assigned

ad on tv had the exact cartoon figures as caleb, sophia and parents.
i cant convince anyone pimi that the gb didnt come up with the programming all by themselves.
