officer james givens has served with the cincinnati police department for over 26 years, but has never quite experienced anything like this before.
he was sitting in his patrol car in a parking lot when he got an unexpected visitor.
a goose came up to his car and started pecking on the side of it.
Kudos to the officer.
I hope the gosling has an enjoyable life.

Right, that's because we are "apostates."
its not easy being an introvert in an extrovert worldespecially when youre a kid.
it is even more difficult if none of the adults in the kids life recognize that the child is an introvert.
this doesnt happen only when the childs parents are extroverts, but also with introverted parents who have never understood their own introverted nature.. .
I'm not raising an introvert. I am an introvert!
i have a very xjw type problem, i am invited to my cousin's 70th birthday party, and really don't know what to buy him.. i only met him a couple of months ago, as my jw parents never encouraged the non-jw side of the family, so i don't know much about him, except that he is retired and his hobby is sailing his boat.. i don't have contact details for his kids etc to ask them for ideas, so could you come up with something please ?
not too extravagant, i am a poor pensioner !
but, it is his 70th.. thanks in advance for any tips !.
Some businesses, such as bookstores etc, offer gift vouchers.
So, maybe give a gift voucher and let him use it to buy whatever he wants.

the video was posted directly to a pro-jw facebook page.
i cant believe what i'm hearing... actually, nothing surprises be about this cult anymore.. didn't they say to the judge in the arc that they dont discourage college?.
To label someone undertaking higher education as 'spiritually weak' is, in my view, both ridiculous and narrow minded. Yet they are always on the lookout for recruiting into Bethel people with university or college education such as doctors, nurses, lawyers etc. Even artisans such as electricians, plumbers, fitters etc attend college to learn their trade theory.
Anyone who ridicules higher education, whether they're the GB or rank and file members, are fools.
i everyone, this is my new and first post.
i have like 4 years reading all the stuff in this forum and i like it!!!!
thank you for all your information that helped me to get out from the jwland.
Hello Ironsnake656, and welcome to the forum.
Congratulations on your first post - great discussion.
As others have mentioned, the Judge did good and has literally saved that girl's life.
i was born in the religion but why on earth do people join this religion?
?.
My parents were contacted, studied with, and baptised into JW'ism.
Us kids had no say in the matter and therefore tagged along.

I don't recognise this 'religion' anymore.
