Just as a passenger in a taxi in the Bahamas. Absolutely terrifying but city traffic terrifies me anyway. Australian would not let American service men rent cars in t h e Vietnam era. Too dangerous.

Have you driven in a country that drives on the opposite side of the road?
by FondaCox indid you drive?
if so, how nerve wracking was it for you?
i'd be terrified i'd stop concentrating for a moment and out of habit make a right turn at a red light into oncoming traffic.

A group of 136 countries set a minimum global tax rate of 15% for big corporations
by Disillusioned JW ina group of 136 countries set a minimum global tax rate of 15% for big corporations.
that is a major goal accomplished by the biden administration.
seehttps://www.wsj.com/articles/countries-agree-to-global-deal-to-curb-tax-avoidance-11633709979 .. if corresponding legislation gets passed into law in the usa it will be much harder for corporations doing business in the usa to move their operations out of the usa to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

A good mail service us one of the few things a government should enable.
Some of the other things b eing done will have to wait and see. Reduced deductions? Ebay income? ( yard sales too?) 87000 new IRS employees willing to use guns?
All left Is brown shirts and lightning insignia.

The best days were h aving someone else go on a long winded return while I slept.
As for carts, I still have mental scars from wearing little kid sandwich boards. No carts for me.

Is the FACT that no God/god ever communicates with humans evidence that no God/god exists?
by Disillusioned JW inis the fact that no god/god ever communicates with us evidence that no god/god exists?
i think it is very strong evidence that no personal god/god exits, especially a benevolent god who wants humans to know him him/her/it, to obey him/her/it, and/or to love him/her/it.
since no god/god communicates to us (including those who sincerely want communication with the/a god/god), wouldn't it be sensible for those who pray to what they believe is the/a god/god to cease all efforts to communicate to a god/god?

It brings me to an indifferent or ? god. There is "stuff" in the universe. Was it always there, or made, and who,what,why. If someone made the stuff, who made the maker? If condensed energy where did it come from?

Elders won't tell you who have falsely accused you
by enoughisenough inhaving been a victim of this practice twice, i thought i would see if others had the same experience.
on one occassion, i was before the elders being told i was drunk on a certain day at a certain time.
( this was only brought up because when i was pushing for a meeting because of elder mr x adultery , i was threatened somethings would be brought out about me if i persued the meeting.

We just got a local needs on beware of outsiders or newbies. One point was to tell elders and let them handle it. Partly right except they are clowns. No mention of school age going to dad and/ or mom for flirtings, bad talk, questionable behaviour,. Or talking against elders. Even mentioned carrying a gun. Maybe I can get red flagged.

Nonbelieving mates
by road to nowhere ina couple of my wife's friends are married to non witnesses.
they say jehovah must have special plans for them.
and that it is a special exception not destruction, alas, they are not attractive so my special idea about polygamy won't cut it.

Women who married " out of the truth". Husband nice guy, friendly. Of course any woman who marries anyone not elder material is marked, forever by some.
The official teaching is destruction despite what these women think. You know; " big enemies of God".

I dont remember if it was a convention part or update but they flat out said Jehovah gave us the vaccine.
For some of us the threat to withhold privileges doesn't work.

Booster shots required for Bethelites and special full time servants?
by PimoElder init’s a shame the gov body did a big u turn on vaccines .
if they continue with the rule that only fully vaxed can go back to the hall then i could have stayed on zoom.
but the term fully vaxed is a moving target, if it’s been like six months since your last shot you are just the same as those of us who are unvaxed .

Young men arecat risk of myocardial probems. If course there is a " fix" for that. I know if one young woman who just happened to die from blood clot 3 days after.
I am elderly man and cannot get it no matter how hard I try. Had the booster, will have to argue with doctor's nagging for next one.
