so today i saw a group of jws i know, we were sitting down to eat at a public place and i guess they (mom and daughter) were performing at an event with their sports team… for juneteenth.. they (the entire team) happened to sit next to us for some fast food and i recognized them and said hi, hoping to make them uncomfortable.

they actually said hi and introduced themselves to my family, i’ve seen them before (they go to the same school as one of my kids) and they usually ignore me.

i know for a fact they and their family still goes, the family patriarch is an elder etc.

we who actually look at wt history know that they just changed 1874 to 1914 without a fanfare.

setting up the potential for changing any dates to new dates because "holy spirit" told them to do so.. which makes me ask, why do we bother to watch what they do?

i mean, we don't care having escaped their greedy little claws.

ever wonder about the story of cain and abel?

why did jehovah like abel's sacrifice more than cain's?

maybe there's a subtle reason why jehovah likes animal sacrifices.

the houthis began attacking ships in the red sea around november 2023, shortly after the start of the israel-hamas war.

their attacks included hijacking commercial vessels and launching missile and drone strikes against various ships.

when kamala ran for the next president of the usa, she made the comment that there were no americans soldiers fighting anywhere n the world.

babylon the great: a prophetic warning.

babylon the great is not just a city—it is the system that governs the world economy.

this was god's first judgment against economic babylon, but it would not be his last.. the three parts of babylon's economy.

i am watching the celebrations of the 80th anniversary of ve day.

80 years since the defeat of nazi germany in 1945. i find the interviews of the stalwart men and women who played their part very moving.

these veterans speak with pride and sadness about their experiences, those they lost, those they fought alongside.
