in case anyone is looking for a way to watch it, it's on amazon prime video.. (apologies if it's already been mentioned).
it's not what I'd describe the movie as really being about apostasy as such but that's maybe just my too-specific terminology kicking in - a broader interpretation would match.
So how would you have named the movie Simon ? to maybe reach a wider audience ?
I thought the movie was excellent the way it was handled and very realistic.
From my own Australian experience of 33 years of self imposed captivity.
so proud of this counter that i made!.
very simple yet shows the estimated amount of people that are living that are from the generation of 1914, defined as "all the people who were alive, even just barely being born, when ww1 started".. here's what i assumed:.
10% of the 1.7 billion people alive in 1914 were infants, just children.
10 or above at the time WWI started - 6 left
That`s the time frame I remember when I was in and my wife and I were told our children would never get to high school .Both of who have been married with kids of their own .
banks create money “out of thin air.”empirical studies have been undertaken to prove this thesis and this is the conclusion:.
in the 5,000 year history of banking, banks have been thought of as “deposit taking institutions which lend money”.. 1. what is the legal reality?
banks don’t take deposits and don’t lend money.the public is under this false impression on purpose because the language of banks is not legal language.. so--what is a “deposit”?a deposit is not actually a deposit.
I`m with stillin I`m learning something also, economics not being my strong point.

Australia is currently undergoing a Royal Commission into the banking sector and would they be aware of this ?
Would it make any difference to them ? If they did ?
Or is this just the way things are done and nothing to see here.
thanks for the post Terry W.
just beyond frustrated with my jw mother.
she’s a prescription drug addict.
she’s been that way since before i was born.
Sorry about your situation ,however you have your own family to focus on ,and sorry but you cant help stupid people even if they are family members who cant take practical advice to save themselves.
i´ve come up with a partial list (i am only in 1 kings) of the many reasons and ways to die in the bible.maybe, when i am in revelation, i am going to share the full list.
how many do you think i´ll end up having??
number.
So you have got as far as 11 bible books and 156 "ways or reasons to die in the bible " I cant wait for you to cover the next 28 books of the "Old Testament"
And the 27 books of the "New Testament" I know their is some great ways to die in there .
I look forward to see the final count unless I get snuffed before then.
It makes you wonder about this statement in the Bible doesn`t it ?
John 3:16 " For God loved the world so much...."
Isn`t it normal to judge a being by their actions and not by their words ?
in a nutshell.
a group of about 6 women who have been friends practically their whole lives that i personally know are leaving there jw husbands.
my understanding is they're starting to see the hypocrisy of the .org.
Dio..... its the wives who are sitting on a gold mine ....seems like a lot of JW `s don`t realise it.
What`s that saying ? "the way to a man`s heart is through his stomach" ?
I think they need to lower their gaze a few inches lower.
i guess every jw has a different conscience on the matter, and i don't believe any jw publications have ever specifically mentioned nudity in film as being off limits.
of course genitals are out of the question because that's usually relegated to r movies which most good jws don't view.
female toplessness is condoned but not spoken about, as most jws i know have seen titanic and many own it.

Tell that to the millions of JW teens around the world that live double lives ?
i'm looking for a creationist viewpoint on this video:.
https://youtu.be/oetkajbg1ea.
why was this creature created to behave the way it does?.
unsure , I was referring to mainstream religions like Catholic and Protestant and not only creationists or fundamentalists .
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.
Julia Gillard the first Australian woman PM got on this list ? Well I guess that counts for something
2+2=5 I hope she gets the recognition she deserves for doing that and that it reverberates around the world with real healing for all those abused and not just empty words.
