  King David's Three Choices

  by Jehalapeno in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  editor's note: found this on reddit...thought the meat of the post would be a good post for discussion here as well.. consider the three choices god forced upon david for taking a census.

  these three choices were forced on king david, not for murdering people, not for raping women, not for lying, stealing, or any crime we can think of in our modern world that is repugnant, but simply for taking a census or in other words, counting people.. for counting people, jehovah forced a decision on david that involved the lives of thousands upon thousands of innocent people.. the choices all dealt with the “way” jehovah would kill thousands of unsuspecting loyal worshipers.. 1 chronicles 21.

  “these are the choices the lord has given you.

  Think of the wives he could then take under his wing (ding).

  Given the usual liberties taken with numbers, actually a dozen or so related people fell from some virus and it was expanded

  I remember Moore. A very human down to earth person as I recall. Lived in a camper behind the hall. But I wasnt pimo then either so memories would be different.

  The wives are all from the same mold; nicely dressed, unassuming hair do, practical shoes. No fault in that. A couple were just plain gorgeous enough to turn your head

  We had one who would read and study during the talks.

  Single elder hitting on you? That is not what he said but throw that back at them if need be.

  Sometimes parents actually sitting in on a committee matter wakes them up. They will claim you are past the ( non bible based) age of 18. They may not allow dad either since he is not a brother.

  Rick

  The controls are well documented so any judge can recognize the weaseling they are trying.

  Big question if the rank and file can see it

  First thing to note is that everyone on here is at a minimum a disgruntled witness and many are unbelievers.

  The Amazing Solar System

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i gotta say, i don't know much about the solar system.

  i never was particularly interested in it.. but i've recently read professor brian cox's book (which accompanies a bbc series) and it's completely fascinating.. i'm quite interested in pictures of mars.

  martian landscapes seem familiar and different at the same time ….

  Double post

  Voyager 2 is beyond pluto. It takes 16. 5 hours for a signal to travel one way. They used photos to see any debris and steer it clear. I didnt find the the wattage of the transmitter, but it is really low.

  AND the United states has secret colonies on Mars.😊

  I did talk to an employee of a space agency who thinks the probes that " crashed" are really doing something covert.

  We in the UK are dealing with COVID all wrong

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  1. social
  2. current

  yeah, so boris johnson has plunged the whole of the uk back into a second lockdown.

  kids are still going to school (thank goodness!

  ) but this second lockdown is ruining the economy and killing small businesses.. the first lockdown was forgivable because, at the time, nobody knew what we were dealing with.. but now, we know more and more about covid-19.. it is lethal to elderly people (the average age of deaths with covid in the uk is 82 years - the average age of deaths without covid in the uk is 81 years).. it is also lethal to obese people and people with diabetes.. i'd imagine hiv+ people are another vulnerable group.. but to everyone else, catching covid is fairly similar to catching the flu.

  Funky

  I remember a wife worrying that the congregation records would be lost. Like a group can't know who is who and who is a good person.

  One illustration had straps so long you would trip on the bag. Maybe there should gave been a stick and leather strap cart with wheels like the serious elders use
