we seem to have had an influx of religiots - the people who want to tell us all about how we / the wts / whoever are wrong, wrong, wrong about everything and how right they are.
they obviously have special insight, or voices (probably voices, right?
) telling them the real truth.. as proof, there is inevitably a wall of random scripture references and quotes.. sorry, but we're not here for that.
I think Simon doesn't want religious types preaching on his discussion board.
At least, that's how I understood his OP.
Yes. It's the people who don't want to actually discuss anything. Someone makes a point? They post the same copy-past diatribe. Someone asks them a question? Same copy-paste. Every. Time.
It's always drivel. No original thought. Nothing of interest. Just the religious equivalent of "I'm a Nigerian prince who wants to give you $50m ..."
i am having a problem posting.
first 2 posts were ok but third refuses to post.
is there a limit or something on how may posts you can do a day?
Posts are throttled to protect that site from spammers and people asking where their posts are ...
The more you post, the longer they take to appear. Be patient and do what the instructions tell you.
When you keep posting "where's my post" posts, I delete them and then you have to wait longer.
.....and replaced with voip by 2025. https://www.pmctelecom.co.uk/blog/are-landline-phones-being-phased-out-in-2025/.
just heard this on a radio station's advert..
This is simple technology progress - it's expensive to keep all the infrastructure for ye-olde-phones when there has been so much invested to provide fibre optics that can carry significantly more data, including voice.
We no longer have stables to feed and water our horses on long trips either, or people going round lighting street-lamps at night.

The father character reminds him of his mum? Was she a tranny?
scholar and fisherman, i started this thread because i didn't want to highjack the one in regard to 588/568.. i just wanted to ask if you were both current active jw's that believe the jw's beliefs?.
do y'all believe the gb are the f&ds?
if the answers are no, then why do y'all defend so passionately the date 607?
Jorden: posting the exact same things over and over doesn't make you convincing, it makes you a spammer. Fuck off.

Sorry, but we're not here for that. We've heard that shit before. If that's all you are going to do, you should be on your way because you're diatribes are going to be deleted. The site isn't here to host your bible diarrhea, so please don't bother - you're just going to be wasting your time.
People are free to have sensible debates about all manner of things, including beliefs, but if your arguments are just bible versions ... well, it's simply not convincing, because it isn't any kind of argument at all.
can a jehovah's witness please answer me this question - why do you shun those that are disfellowshipped or disassociated?.
jesus never shunned anyone.
if you remember, the pharisees rebuked jesus for eating a meal with sinners.
It's a sad story if true, but I think there has to be a degree of personal responsibility.
The WTS can't really shun anyone - who cares if someone you don't know doesn't want to talk to you? The only people who could really shun your mothers daughters (which I find an odd way to describe your sisters?) are their friends and family.
The person that made the decision to shun them was your mother. She took that decision, same as deciding to bring her children up in that religion in the first place without spending enough time researching it. But all those decisions are on her. Sounds like she maybe regretted it.
But now you are doing the classic trick of giving the WTS all the power and excusing what your mother did.
The fact that you see all these things that happened under the guise of religion, but are so adamant that it's all true is frankly mind-blowing. You can't see that maybe the entire thing is all an invention to control and manipulate people?
Your mother fell for it and you're falling for a different version of it by a competing sect.
another reason that jesus trial before pontius pilate and his being nailed to the stake was not on the same day, as watchtower teach, is found in two scriptures.
john 19:14 says, now it was the day of preparation of the passover; it was about the sixth hour.
and he said to the jews: see your king.
Even if you believe the bible, it's written something like 70 years after the events supposedly took place, so imaging it's any kind of "eye witness" account is laughable.
It's like the rest of the bible - badly written stories to manipulate the gullible and feeble minded, to push a narrative.
Arguing over trivialities in the stories is as pointless as debating whether Harry Potters scar was shaped in a lightning bolt because that's what hit him.
None of it happened. It isn't real. Stop pretending any of it is true to start with.
watch tower is in court all the time.
it wins some.
it loses others.. we know it costs £££££ to go to court, pay barristers, expert witnesses, etc.. with wtc going to court for so many diverse reasons these days, from challenging laws to defending wt practices and paying out to csa victims, how much do you think wtc is spending annually on court cases?.
Like many large organizations, they will likely see fines and court cases as just the cost of doing business.
They are an untaxed business, with free labor - a few payouts isn't going to bankrupt them.

yes, lots of fat, sad, single men go to Bangkok to sample the amazing cuisine
Who among us hasn't had a craving for some Thai food and flown half way round the world and "dated" a prostitute at one time or another in order to satisfy our hunger?
Oh, right ... all of us haven't.
Looks like he is trying to become the Croatian underground music scene's version of Harvey Weinstein. That should end well.
I thought that after I posted. It's either about money or power over some hopeful young girl. He won't be doing it to help anyone else but himself.
