  #100 Women

  by Lost in the fog in

  in the uk the bbc has been celebrating the role of women who have made a difference to the world.

  they have focused on 100 women in particular who have taken a lead in various professional jobs.

  isn't it sad that we'll never see a jehovah’s witness woman appearing on such a list because of the misogynistic attitude within their organisation.

  We definitely should talk about the 99 women.

  Julia Gillard the former PM of Australia asked for the royal commission on institutional response to child sex abuse.

  I'm not sure why Chelsea Clinton makes the list
  

  Because her dad was the president.

  Morph, the governments are supposed to persecute the JWs, in every part of the world. This wasn’t directed to Russian JWs specifically but to all the JWs, most of who live in America and the UK.

  Ofcourse, it applies directly to Georgia, but they blatantly using these incidents to bolster the idea for those living in the west, that the United Nations sanctioned ban on religion will be hitting them soon.

  The coming persecution is one of their major bullshit fear mongering prophecies, along side of Armageddon, both never going to happen.

  mostly we read about the regular holidays in the western world.

  now the other ones are also named, because some witnesses could be in doubt .

  Don’t take anything on the JW website to serious, it’s loaded with cult doublespeak. We all know the weakest conscience rules inside the KH, if someone doesn’t like the piñata it will be stopped.

  When the WT says it’s a personal decision, they normally suggest a more ‘spiritual’ one, the other choices leave you open for judgement from the group. They love assimilation.

  The website suggests that’s it’s not only JWs who will be saved... yet I know an elder who refers to worldly people as “bird food”..

  Just some bird food for thought.

  They are progressively dialing up the wacko. This shit might even help some jws wake up, they all need some sort of jolt to activate independent thinking, hopefully this will be it for some.

  For those Genuinely Concerned about Press Freedom

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  our illustrious leader, justin trudeau, has just announced a half a $billion fund that will be given out to "trustworthy" news sources.. of course this will have nothing todo with the fact that there will be a federal election next year and there are plenty of bad things to highlight in the liberals record.

  they will obviously dole the money out in a totally impartial manner, even handing funding to reporters that are critical of them and trudeau.

  "trustworthy" news sources won't just be a euphemism for "writes positive stories about me, avoids negative ones".

  I’m not surprised that dick has now sanctioned corruption. He was kind of already doing it, now it’s just obvious.

  today is my 34th birthday.

  or, my 3rd birthday that i've actually acknowledged seeing as i was raised in the cult.. i woke up this morning to my 4yo running into my room and wishing me a "happy birthday daddy!".

  i got a card from my ex-jw brother and i bought myself a birthday gift - a new 50mm lens for my nikon camera (photography is a hobby i took up since leaving the cult).. i dont know about you guys, but birthdays is still something i have to make a conscious effort to acknowledge and enjoy.

  Happy birthday, glory be to you. Hopefully you find the time to enjoy a severed head.

  I nearly always forget my own, and shamefully struggle to remember my own kids.

  Tag teams of Cart Sitters

  2. experiences

  one sunday, we took our dad out for lunch.

  since it didn't open till 12:00, we were going to have to kill time.

  this restaurant is situated with other businesses around a small park and when we parked, we noticed there was a cart to the right in the park.

  There is no doubt the JWs love this new way of ''preaching'' What is better than sitting in the park on a nice summer day, texting or viewing things on your phone or tablet, and chatting to your partner about anything. If anyone does come up to you, all you need to do is hand them some free literature and point to jwdotorg
  

  I’ve heard it from a JW who does it. Seems it’s all about getting a nice park somewhere, nice views of the ocean or river, and relaxing on a seat. They virtually brag about not having to talk to anyone.

  It’s an urgent message.

  What does the Watchtower say about using CBD Oil?

  Not commenting on the WT, but best if you find whole cannabis that has high CBD content. CBD is tremendous, but the research suggests that whole plant is more effective medicine than extracts. Stacked with other cannabinoids like CBG and added medical value of terpenes, although still not fully understood it does seem the best way to go.

  I did hear from one of the old timers at Bethel that Joe Rutherford and Knorr had a three some with one of Rutherford's sexcretaries back in the nineteen thirties at Beth Sherim....but this is just a rumor.
  

  It’s called overlapping fornication.
