where your mental image of a place does not match up with where you intellectually know it actually is?
1. great britain: i always picture it to the west of france.
if i'm reading about the norman invasion or d-day i always see it in my head as crossing the channel east-west / west-east.
People think of Canada as far north, but Toronto is level with Italy in latitude terms.
I only noticed that there's a huge gulf off California / Mexico the other day. That can't be new, right? How did I never see it before!
The Mercator projection masks the enormous size of Africa and makes the USA / Europe look far larger by comparison.

This doesn’t include money, gifts, travel paid for, books sent to him for free by supporters, which by the sounds of it was substantial.
The sorts of things someone who is less than honest could easily avoid paying taxes on, which also then makes a substantial difference - imagine your pay packet if you got the gross amount instead of the net!
trump's first wife and mother of his children died recently.
they had her buried on his golf course.
do you think this is tacky or a savvy business move since it'll now get them some tax breaks as a cemetery?.
GabeAthouse: please take your TDS elsewhere, we don't need the endless drivel.

Yes, 461 now, even that bump (maybe from the Leah Remini video?) ... which means the flippening is upon us - this topic will soon have more pages than he has patreons!
i would like to know how some of you link your various computers, tablets, phones and the like?
do you network them?
or, do you use secure shell (ssh)?
It's easier to sync everything to something else (like a cloud service).
For docs, Google Docs / Drop Box / iCloud etc...

Up to what they want - it's their family & their land. One thing I know for sure is that reality probably doesn't match what has been reported.
If it was "upright, sticking out of the 9th hole" I think it would be odd.

Who needs a rebuttal? Do people really think that unless someone is there to say "don't believe this" that people just will?
If you're tuning in to watch a rebuttal, you really don't need it! You could and should be doing something else. You already lost time listening to the WTS, don't waste more time listening to things about the WTS!
i look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.
They don't even try to hide their insane bias and nutty agendas anymore, it's blatant propaganda for the latest crazy belief.

The suckers are the patrons who jump ship last.
The suckers are all the patrons who ever were.
the worst part of my experience of getting rid of the shackles of wt is not the shunning.
i can live with that.
if people don't want to talk to me, there are many more who do!
It's a slow process of trying to wean them off the "drug" of the WTS and replace it with something better.
Of course you can't guarantee that you will ... but you can enjoy trying, and thinking up things to do that strengthen the family experience so that it hopefully pushes out the need for them to dedicate so much time to the religion.
Good luck.
