  The virus and how it's affected life

  by days of future passed in

  2. current

  since i've never lived in time with dire events, this virus and it's effects, has taken me by surprise.

  not that i should be surprised by how people responded, but until you experience it first hand, you just don't get the scope of it all.. all the hoarding.

  i've always taken things in a more rational way.

  The famous liars

  by days of future passed in

  2. beliefs

  i was talking with my sister and the subject of the wt using rahab as an exemplary example of theocratic warfare which is of course, lying.

  when the wt uses her, they fail to highlight the fact that she was a temple prostitute and an unbeliever when she "saved" the spies.. i said you know, the wt doesn't use the most famous liar as an example.

  that would be peter of course.

  there wasn't a place to really peg this so i just picked this area to post.. one of the interests i have is fossils and finding things in the ground.

  i stumbled onto a lady that does mudlarking in england.

  it's amazing what is found by the river - some very old coins, bottles, pottery, smoking pipes etc.

  "Do Religions Today Feed or Fleece The Flock?" March 22, 1988

  by days of future passed in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i pulled this magazine out of a box of "never placed and never will be" from the 1980's and 90's.

  of course it is hypocritical (like most articles) but especially now since the jw religion has their own channel.. it is an article about tele evangelists - the four prominent ones.

  it takes up 3 1/2 pages and it is full of the misdeeds and greed of these preachers.

  The infamous WT article "Why Has God Been So Patient?"

  by days of future passed in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i went to my sister's house because she was cleaning out the garage and she thought i must have tons of stuff left there.

  i didn't but there was a box of unplaced mags in one.

  i pulled out one when i got home and it was this one.. i'm sure that if i had read it when it came out, i would have felt that the wt had feelings of sadness over these children.

  Kids With A Card

  2. humour

  i've taken up doordashing to make some extra cash to pay for my hobbies and other things.

  you are a food delivery person at the mercy of a crappy app and google which can be stressful.

  the plus side is tips and people who are usually happy to see you.. but it wasn't long into this gig, that i became acquainted with a certain kind of customer.

  Jw's mentioned in shows

  have you ever been watching a show and suddenly, there's a reference to jehovah's witnesses?

  i was watching an english mystery show from a while back and the main character hetty, was giving a list of religions that could have drawn off a young girl.

  one of the "fringe" groups was tada - jehovah's witnesses.. there is plenty of other more well known clips like snl coneheads being approached by fake jw's.

  What your first realization of hypocrisy in this Religion?

  by days of future passed in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  my mother became a witness when i was five and i believed that every witness followed what was said at the meetings and the instructions given.

  my naive belief carried on until maybe i was 10?

  at the old conventions, volunteers would come early and pack fruit into net bags so that it could be sold at lunch.
