I have a couple of family members who not so much went back but never were associated and joined. One is a cousin, he is about 60 now. maybe a bit older. His father was a JW and out of his two sisters and brother only one sister was a JW and I don't think she is currently in. I worked with him in construction for many years. He would piss off roof tops say fuck every other word and just did not care much about anyone or thing. Now all of the sudden after all these years, he is now going to all the meetings got baptized and has FB pages with him and his kids in suit and tie at assemblies. Another one that is very strange is a cousin who was about 20 years my elder, never really went to meetings. His dad was in all his life. He would smoke, read porn like it was the daily mail, and curse like a sailor. He would treat his wife like a subject. When I would go over for coffee he would take his cup and bang the table and she would run out and fill it up. He would have her shave him as he sat in the tub ect. He would even hold his own meetings instead of going to meetings because he did not like the elders at the hall. His wife never really went or was associated with the JWs. Her family was not associated. He passed away with a hart attack and after he died, she sainted him and started to go to all the meetings got baptized and is holding the farm 80 acres as he left it for when he comes back. His youngest girl on FB talks about him as if he were there with Russell and started the cult. She is way to young and did not know him at all. This kind of mental behavior is so strange. Its a delusion so deep I can not get my head around it.

The bank that supplies my credit card in conjunction with the NRA dropped the NRA association. LOL I charged a life time membership with the NRA and cut the card up and told them to pound sand. Don't bother with the "they will hit your credit" I have never in my 56 years of life used a bank for a home loan. I have several credit cards I use for the 5 percent back on gas and keep them current.

The same goes for Xmas for me. I don't like it. Its just a commercial POS holiday. But I do it for my nieces. I still hate the crowded lines and hype.

Growing up a 4th gen cult member I don't get into birthdays. When you never had something its not a desire for me. I do go to my nieces who are young. Its a big thing to them so it is to me.

Does anyone know of this guy, or agree with his statements on racial differences in IQ?
by Sugar Shane inhere are some quotes by the guy, from his youtube channel.
his name is stefan molyneux, and he’s apparently popular among the alt-right crowd.
he’s also widely quoted on these discussion boards, by certain ex-jws, who use him to help promote their political views.

I have lived in areas that have had black populations. Their culture is corrupt. Pants down to their knees, talking like a 5yo. Let me ax you . drugs, rap crap ect. This said. I had noticed something back in the day when I lived in the little town of Arcadia fla. It had a "black section" There were several sisters who went to the hall from that area. I noticed that when there was just one sister there, she was very quite and reserved. But it two or more were then they would sit together and start hooping and laughing very loud. They were not trying to be obnoxious in any way but it was in their nature to be very emotional. Races are different. I don't call it superior or inferior and there are exceptions to the rule. Asians are much more astute in things like math than other races. not all but as a general rule. Some of it is culture and how they are raised. Heck maybe it all is. Its the old breeding or culture argument.

I saw The Last Jedi yesterday ... spoilers!
by LoveUniHateExams inyeah i saw ep 8 tlj yesterday.. first off, the special effects - a combination of cgi and practical - are fantastic, although with a budget of $200 million i expect them to be.. there are many issues i have with this movie and here's one: leia flying through space, i mean, wtf?!.
yes, we know leia is luke's brother and so has some force-sensitivity - she talked telepathically to luke in the empire strikes back.. apart from that, she's never really used any abilities she may have or been taught the ways of the force ... and now she's flying through space!
xd.

How does it feel to have lived so long and now you are dying and the end still is not on the horizon? All those years you moved up to that cong. in the mid 70s because it was the end in 1975.
He actually replied "it feels good" I could not believe he replied. Wrong thing to do with me. I know his history. His kids were DFed for a while for having sex and partying with wordily people. His wife was a fat ass, that would literally stick her nose in the air and act like it was her personal religion. She would sing like she was auditioning for an opera. We would all make fun of her. I then posted the child pedophile videos and asked if this was good? Along with all the failed predictions. I don't think he knows how to block. Got a few of the cong. supporters saying sorry for this rude behavior. This PO was one of the biggest douche nozzles ever. He thought his crap did not stink. He was very competitive in anything he did. He would take off work and go trucking for the JWs back in the day when they trucked their own food. And wear cowboy boots on stage, we used to call him gear jammer. So funny most times you don't get an acknowledgment. I don't think he understands the enjoyment I get at poking the bear. And I know too many secrets.

Illegal immigration puts a strain on the system. Some who come in come to smuggle drugs and people. No nation has ever survived and not had boarders. Places like Eastern Europe Poland and others who limit immigration and do not let in Muslims are not having the beheading, stabbings of killings as England, Germany and the USA. In Germany there are no go zones Women have been groped and rapped. It is an issue. Japan has very limited immigration and is very hydrogenous and it is very stable low crime and the people are happy.
