  so sad.

  i love europe.

  i love going there not as a tourist, but just blending in and spending time with locals in non-touristy local gems.. islam seems to be spreading their religion of peace throughout the continent.

  Violence and terrorism should be condemned by everyone. When some excuse or justify it then you know there is still a breeding ground for it. - Simon

  Yes, this! Hear, hear.

  Trump: the Mary Decker of Politics

  by Simon in

  1. social
  2. current

  i have never heard a politician whine like a little girl so much and claim everything to be "so unfair".. now he's trying to claim that a reporter may have been "coming at him with a bomb" (to justify his campaign manager attacking her) just because she had a pen, yes - a reporter had a pen.

  and of course he's going to sue - anytime he's criticized or loses a primary he threatens a lawsuit over it.. "she had a pen in her hand, it could of been a bomb or just a pen - which can be dangerous".

  yes mr trump, we know a female reporter writing about you if threatening.. in last nights town hall he claims *not* to have suggested suing her and seems to genuinely believe that saying something in a tweet isn't actually saying it.. on more serious and worrying subjects, he wants the us to pull out of nato and for every country in asia and the middle east to get nukes "because it's so unfair".. for someone who plays the tough guy all the time he comes across as incredibly insecure, and whines about how everything is unfair if anyone criticizes him but backs down with denials if pressed on something he has said (or claims it's "unfair" that he's been challenged).. if you don't know who mary decker is (maybe you're too young) she too represented the us and was an embarrassment on the world stage.

  Most people on this thread have no idea on what they're talking about. Most people who profess to be Islamic have no idea what they're talking about so what chance have we got? Most Christians and Westeners in general have no idea what they're talking about so how easy it is to clash one against the other and even a better clash if you're manipulating both sides.

  Find out who the people are that have infiltrated both sides and the answer to this mess lies in their ideology. Clue - they are not Christians or Islamic.

  Isis is manufactured.

  Countries that have a closer understanding to pure Islam than others have now got leaders who have been bought. These puppet leaders are now practicing internet blackouts, have no freedom of media, imprisoning freedom of speech, are getting rid of secular laws and are tying the population back to fundamentalism.

  Because most of the people on this thread do not understand more clearly, you are buying a very superficial argument that directly benefits the aim.

  The so called ''free Islamists who are not standing up against these extremists'' are not always in a position to do so. They are being attacked from within their own religion and from outside of their religion. We should educate ourselves as to what is happening if we want to stop it.

  If you're going to contribute to the mix, at least learn what PURE ISLAM is in order to understand who the enemies are.

  (The Qu'ran needs to be read and then understood as ONE MESSAGE. The Qu'ran that starts with the words ''first you must read'' is in the correct order. The Qu'rans that start with stories about Jews etc. is not in the correct order. These are just tips.)

  (I'm not an authority on this topic but I know enough to get what's happening.)

  (I don't support any religion either.)

  Some thoughts on guilt.

  by New day in

  2. experiences

  had an interesting conversation with my wife recently.

  she struggles with physical, emotional and psychological problems which have often caused her to miss meetings.

  she mentioned how she is equally tortured by guilt if she misses meetings and ministry, and severe stress if she does them.

  It sounds to me like you guys could do with a big change in your life. Is there any provision for this? I don't know your circumstances but maybe an extended break from the org masked as a holiday? Or a pack up and move to a different area, state or country even? If that's not possible, a new hobby that you can do together and if it includes the outdoors that would be very beneficial - bike riding? Pic-nics? Walking/hiking?

  What I've found helps with depression is setting little things to look forward to everyday and big things to look forward to in the future. Maybe you can make a plan together and write it on a calendar. You can buy tickets for future events like concerts or events, book holidays etc.
  

  I strongly also recommend you to look into natural medicines to compliment her medications. I will post a link to a page about essential oils beneath as just one area that can help. I like to make a pillow spray for when I sleep so I breath the oils in whilst my body is in repair mode but you can also have massage oils with them in or add to baths. Maybe you could look into this and also she should watch her diet. You are what you eat. Look up foods that uplift the mood and create more serotonin. Excercise is extremely important for depression also.

  The diabolical plan of the WTBTS.

  diabolical, or just really dumb, desperate and grasping for control; either way, the devil is in the details of the january 15, 2016 "study edition" of the watchtower tractazine.

  so, we have two intertwined articles concerning "anointed" individuals within the sect of the wtbts inc. "the spirit bears witness with our spirit.

  " and "we want to go with you people.

  i got ready for the meeting.

  my wife did too.

  we drove out to the kingdom hall and the closer we got the higher my anxiety would spike.

  Yes dubstepped, yes! Same here! Being a born-in, I kept telling myself I was a bad person and a failiure and I tried to conform - I didn't know any different. It made me ill.

  I told my mother a few years ago that the kingdom halls were full of lonely, depressed, pill-popping, sad people and not the happy place that it's advertised to be - not exactly God's happy people are they with their fake prozac loveliness. Her head snapped right around and her eyes went wide. ''Do you really think so?'' she said. I shrugged and left her with the cogs turning. She has loads of female friends popping happy pills but she didn't know that I knew that.

  Welcome to you both! So nice to hear that it was social media that woke you up. Just interested, would you put it down to any one site or person? So glad you made it out and now can enjoy your free life instead of slaving away for the org.! Welcome again!
