pronunciation is so hard.
the butchered word this time is scourge pronounced as skorj.
4 different people, maybe because the reader did it first.. these same ones also pronounce the w in sword.. a pet peeve of mine is blatantly not learning how to speak and pronounce the native tongue.

in 1976 when i was a young lad of 6, fred franz came to glasgow and gave a talk in govan a suburb on the south side of the city (for those of you who dont know).
our congregation hired a bus to ferry us all to the hall and it was standing room only.
being only 6, i have only the vaguest of memories other than an old man shouting and bawling from the stage.
I was a back stage attendant when freddy came to give a talk. He shook hands with all us and you could just see that he was very glad we got to meet him. Worst part is i am told he was one of the more humble ones
satan peeks over the horizon in qatar :).
arbitrary borders on a map of the middle east, post wwi.. .
civilizations were uprooted.. .
You can go back further. The tribes always fueded there and always will.
The one thing WT got partly right is the dominance of Anglo American powers even if they do keeping changing details about dates and significance.
Without oil the whole place would be left alone and we would still fantasize about exotic harems. If any of us actually got into a harem we would pay dearly.

from post.... "breaking news from japan ... actually quite extraordinary news.
just got off the phone to a good pimo friend in japan.
Either a false story or a person afraid of getting outed by giving too much information.
Few of us who are pimo can speak freely so it would be hard for a whole body to come to such a step
A repeat of that cong in California? Or the one in Texas, except the halls I assume are owned by WT now
i notice the friends are in an anne frank attic instead of a boarded up basement this time.. the giving to ones in need pic shows literature and bible, but no food or money.

I see a local needs coming. " do not read lies put out by opposers". No sharing videos or experiences.
And a rearranged circuit with at least one fewer congregations
for many years since the witness organization, after i have told people that i'm no longer a jehovah's witness, people would say "oh the religion were people are not allowed to drink!".
"no they drink alright.....they can't do much of anything else but they do drink!".
in fact the first place i ever got drunk was bethel.
Fulano
Not wine with a meal, or aperitif, but slugging it down, sometimes with zantac. A long gone elder told me about the meeting, drink to keep things going. Only thing missing was seegars
I had " shepherding" calls where they has some wine to relax us

i am actually not a 'sky is falling' guy, but i wanted to comment on the australian bushfires.. you may or may not believe the science behind global warming, however i personally put more faith in verified, scientific data than the words of fat cat, self-serving politicians.
climate science has predicted, based on data, that we will see more prolonged, extreme weather events, higher average temperatures, rising sea levels due to ocean expansion and glacial melting.
and this is exactly whats happening.
Climate change is not a hoax. The hype and solutions are. It has always been in flux .
recently, some activists decided to interrupt a train that was delivering coal.
police were called and 10 hours later the activists were dispersed.
it’s not unusual now to see picketers close down a bridge or a street for “climate change “.
Make them actually live within the bounds of their beliefs. No plastics, no medicines except local herbs, keep the cow in the house for heat, no fresh food in wjnter, walk, outhouse.
Im reality there was a lot of trading through history, herbs were used for medicine, and not just locally. Flint was imported to areas where it could not be found. The list goes on.... at some point we have gotten too far away from some of this
