fwiw, i say sleazebag....
As reported today by Stephen Collinson of CNN, Cohen’s testimony “was either the betrayal of a proven liar who is making up tales to save himself or the courageous act of an unlikely hero rising above his dirty past to provide a national service, depending on which side of the committee room lawmakers sat on.”
In other words, how you interpret Cohen’s testimony says more about you and your biases than what he actually said.
Own it. Deal with it.

Black and white, this or that, all or nothing thinking is an indication of an uneducated and/or unintelligent mind that can only embrace a simplistic worldview. Human beings are complicated, and the most interesting among us are always examples of just that.
asia for the asians, africa for the africans, white countries for everybody!.
everybody says there is this race problem.
everybody says this race problem will be solved when the third world pours into every white country and only into white countries.. the netherlands and belgium are just as crowded as japan or taiwan, but nobody says japan or taiwan will solve this race problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.. everybody says the final solution to this race problem is for every white country and only white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.. what if i said there was this race problem and this race problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into every black country and only into black countries?.
What a balanced statement looks like:
Cofty: I too want to preserve a UK where the majority is white-British. Not because I dislike people of other races but because I think British culture is worth something despite all our obvious flaws.
if you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.
i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..
Ugh!
Armageddon ain’t ever coming. Just accept and move on.

It's the same bullshit that the WTBTS has been spouting for over a century.
They say it's coming "soon!"

Gotta love this shot with Jesus looking all Marvel comic bookish:

i have to say that i found item 3 on the above page raised questions in my mind.
if an elder is deleted presumably for wrongdoing the hard copy text book is taken off him and destroyed.
but who ensures that any electronic copies of the book in his possession are deleted?
I’m keeping my digital copy. The GB can go pound sand for all I care.
just in case anybody needed this.. 2018 branch organization manual.

atlantis!.
As always: thanks!
I don’t even read them, but I like that we can have them—often before the elders—just because it must drive the control freaks on the Governing Body crazy!
we got a call from close jw family, that it is now time to visit the kingdom hall again because armagedon is a question of a few months.
now it will happen in a very close time, the brothers say so, was the message.. i had earlier the feeling that jw's think the time has arrived because what they say and what they do, work like mad men with their chart every weekend.. so the expetations are high.. gorby's wife replied "how do you know, you should not know day and hour".
stay alert was the reaction.. so sad and so stupid.. g. .
Jehovah's Witnesses, over a century of proclaiming Armageddon is coming "soon!"
Let's review: It's a cult!
i wanted to share a short story from my time studying that congregation (not studying with) where the elder told me 5 years to armageddon i thought some posters might enjoy, little mid-week chuckle that's what i'm going for here.. so this one elder in particular came across like he saw himself as a 'spiritual giant' (weird term cause i thought the nephilim caused all the problems before the flood but thats how jws talk about 'spiritual' people so hey, when in rome).
it just came across in how he held himself and the kinda cold, superior way he looked at you... well, until one sunday at least.. so i came into the hall for the sunday service and i saw him strutting around by the 'information board' (not bulletin board, god forbid) with a manilla folder he'd scrawled confidential across enormously in black sharpy.
he posted a couple letters and then strut into the sanctuary, where he got on stage to read for the watchtower study.
That’s doubleplusungood.
