  Christmas star of Bethlehem to appear for 1st. Time in 800 years

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as spock would say " fascinating".. with 2020 being such a terrible year.

  are people of the christian faith going to look at this as a sign of god, to give them hope and renew their faith?

  coincidence?

  WT is right in some of their arguments. Dec 25 is wrong date, wise men were 3 years late, and the 3 gifts make it tradition that there were 3 wise men. The other side is that the WT chooses to do anything that can cause controversy.

  about 10 minutes in she is will fall asleep and turn the picture off anyway.

  🤨 do not bring up cold skirts, versus pant suits either.

Just so we look right, not actually learn thjngs or encourage someone. Or actually be clean

  I see the media is pushing shaving now. I figure a mask that fogs my glasses must leak anyway 😷

  We Knew Many JWs That Weren’t Right....what about xjws??

  do you think that when people leave the religion that they are basically now, “normal”?

  or do you think it’s more a work in progress?.

  We ( im pimo) cant be normal. We missed normal activities; xmas, bdays, haloween, tgiving, military scouts. I have to admit mom and dad compromised so I did some trick n treat, bdays, etc. As a teen and 20s I had the drinking, chasing around. Never had a girl all the way until marriage. I think back and wonder about some chances I maybe missed, maybe not.

  The biggest non normal thing is realizing we are not going into the new world and facing retirement, death, and were suckered. It cant be explained to anyone outside the experience

  How much do Elders actually get along with each other?

  by Davros in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was reading in the shepherding book that elders should “ cul­tivate and maintain friendships with one another.”, and thought to myself “bulls$it!” i remember that most of the elders in my old congregation were nothing but nasty asses.

  i know it may vary from congregation to congregation, but do elders generally get along with each other behind closed doors in elders meetings?

  or, are they often in conflict with each other?

  I think some of those soldiers played the part. Not really repentant over past bad deeds. I missed the wars too. There is a bond made in combat that is unequaled

  Related: 2 good sisters make fun of my wife for being a virgin when we married. Believe me there are no regrets in our sex life.

  The problem with Capitalism!---Billionaires

  by pistolpete in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  as imperfect and flawed capitalism is, it has worked better than other forms of economic and political systems-so far.

  it’s very simple in “theory.” capitalism is an economic and-or, political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.

  in other words, keep government out of it as much as possible.

  Monopoly laws. I just found out ROKU which is competition for Fire stick uses amazon servers.

  Then look at the tax deals big companies get from cities to add $12 hour no benefit jobs.

  The other side of rotation was when the embicile was made PO, or secretary.

  Anyway, armageddon came in 1975 so there was no more time.

  I have seen elder cliques, work, vacation, eat out together. That was the ones who told me to not even think of reaching out, they didn't need me. I gladly complied. Later a different bunch you could overhear snide remarks about other elders, pioneers, and webelos.

  Back when there was a fierce competition for city servant. I half expected campaign buttons. Pompous ass millionaire won. He did my wife dirt as she was from the wrong side of the tracks. Never let her know when they gutted the keepsakes from her dearest old friend. Instead of giving her anything they took it all; threw pictures out to get a nice frame. All we have is memories.

  some democrat voters are nuts.

  either that, or they're just bitter.. here's a video about zach braff and chris evans, two actors who want lists of 'trump enablers', apparently.. what the hell is wrong with these people?

  their man, biden, won the election and they just can't let it go that some people voted trump.
