so serena williams lost the us open final 6-2, 6-4 to naomi osaka, her japanese-american opponent.. williams received three code violations from the umpire, carlos ramos: .
1. a warning for illegal coaching (subsequently admitted by williams's coach).
2. a point penalty for smashing her racquet.
Like Jehovah, it’s apparently impossible for Serena to tell a lie.
It’s important to remember she has a daughter, so we shouldn’t question her integrity, she is quite unique in this regard. Only she will set the example for her female creation.
If you’re caught cheating, tell lies and throw tantrums, never take responsibility.

i've heard people say amway was a little culty for a business, and reminded them of jws in some ways.
i'm not familiar with amway myself, can anybody here elaborate?.
If the JW comparison is accurate I’d imagine the eulogy and entire funeral would be one giant Amway sales pitch.... talk about Richard for 2mins, take an hour to talk on the Amway vision, his favourite Amway products, and the best way to get involved with Amway today.
Mmmm sounds squeaky clean.
the following letter was read in the congregation today.

i have pasted it as it was.
The memorial stats are a joke. The count is a just a form of propaganda the Borg loves to publish. I would like to see the WT publish a figure on how many attend the memorial just to please a close relative.
How many memorial attendees actually don’t give a shit, and will definitely never identify as JW?
I know of quite a few that attend the memorial but despise the WT with a passion. Jehovah’s statistical chariot loves them!

The jw religion has 8.5 million but we must remember that figure could be doubled if not tripped in some countries
What figure are you doubling and why?
I doubt the WT stats are reliable.... but multiplying already dubious figures by 2 or 3 doesn’t help.

Wow!
Vast sums of people still need to learn the Truth in India! Hungry, honest and humble people.
This is why Armageddon hasn’t started!
Once India is harvested, Jehovah will surely begin the great tribulation!
Endure brothers, but more importantly donate $!!
the jehovah's witnesses believe that jesus christ and michael the archangel are the same person, and blatently ignore numerous verses and passages within scripture which explain that both jesus and michael are two separate persons.this video study (linked below) goes into the intricacies of hebrews chapters 1+2 explaining how the lord jesus and michael are different persons, and looks at the qualities, authority and power at which the lord jesus holds and how it is separate from angels including michael the archangel..
@JW Answers - you should really write a book. Make it a volume.
did you see the performance of stephen lett on august broadcasting?.
the illustration of painting the kingdom hall?.
used for explaining that you have to listen to elders even when they are totaly wrong?.
Obey the elders.
“Don’t report it to the police” says the elder.
i don't know if they do this any longer but back in the day they had a special section at an assembly sectioned off for dfed people who would have to wear a ribbon that said disfellowshipped.
do they still do this and what was the rules on dfed talking to dfed at the assembly?
They should always be segregated, especially at conventions.
They are supposed to sit at the back, filthy scum. If Armageddon starts mid meeting, the angels can easily access and excecute the DF’d losers who always congregate at that back.
They should aririve right on time, not one minute early because it’s disgusting to have such vile beings in Jehovahs house any longer than necessary.
Any eye contact made with the DF’d should be in the form of a glare, otherwise stare straight through their soon-to-be lifeless faces.
It’s done this way because we love them and Jehovah loves them.
a lot of people are confused over the teaching of the trinity, some doubt it, some outright deny it, where some can't get their head around it.
the bible supports it through scriptural evidence.
this video explains from the whiteboard the difference between the god of the watchtower to the god in the bible.
I listened to the video in the OP.
It is called 'The Trinity Explained From a Whiteboard'. It only delivered on half of that promise.
The Trinity can be simply explained, it takes about 45 minutes of video.
on rotten tomatoes, apostasy has 100% success from critics (very rarely that critics are unanimous in their approval of a film) and 97% from the audience.
i have loved reading the reviews as they are almost all ex jw's but there is one glaring review that is almost certainly from one active jw who is pleading that the film be banned, even though they haven't actually seen it (typical) and it made me laugh:.

Nice reviews. Boyd B is 2nd up and hits the ball out of the park.
