When i went to assembly ,s the only time i would clap was the last prayer, only because the mental anguish was finally over and looking around at others who looked like they really meant it, or were they really ln like mind with me and just glad it was over. One prayer years ago I think in Rosenburg, I timed it was over 10 minutes and I was close to walking out, but really clapped louder than ever when it was over....

How many times jehovah is said in a prayer
by Normalfulla inso there was this particular elder in my hall who when giving a prayer would say "jehovah" waaaay to much it was ridiculous, we ended up having a count every time he gave prayer, most of the time it was 15-18 but once he topped 20, if u say it out loud 20 times you'll see how weird it is, like when do you ever in a conversation say someone's name that many times in 2 or so minutes,!

Praying to anything is just a ritual, that our society has now made a game of it, and deservedly so, as depicted by Hollywood, that we most all are gullible, cause our only final proof is to die, and that happens only once. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MkMqRDBKUwM&index=3&list=PLAB71C36466B5D487

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D1fAeRXn6aM&list=PL6GPAb4DHASNDo7uipGxKOBNrIKadKLjI This non sense continues throughout all society, to force behavior toward a bible, that even if you disagree and are diff,d you are denied rights to see your family, which i think in barbarian. Is this cult it is just as bad as the JW,s, maybe worse cause it is so tiny, thy can watch your every move(click) on the computer.

Not sure if this will show, but I ran across this when looking up the story of Earnest the veteran. Something is not quite kosher with all the facts not in. This was from a FB page where his name is earnest Blackbatman, and seems to be a Trump basher. Very suspicious especially when he shows up at Chili,s with a bullhorn and pictures from his Navy (and army) service. All the facts aren't in, so maybe this will turn out like the story of the Gay minister I think in Austin tx that called the media when they printed a gay slur on his special ordered cake. Turns out he did the slur himself and had to apologize to Whole Foods.

So, how did the 'beard article' go over yesterday at your congregation?
by neat blue dog inat mine the conductor was somewhat awkward and minimal and there were nervous chuckles from the audience.
two people, including an elder, gave reasonable comments that it's okay as long as it's not extreme styles, etc.
but then another one of the elders commented that nothing has changed and they still aren't proper locally.

“YOU saw a lot of casual clothing, especially when it was hot,” reported a Dutch newspaper regarding a meeting of church leaders. “That is not the case at the convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses. . . . Boys and men wear a jacket and tie, while the girls’ and women’s skirt length is . . . in good taste, yet mod- ern.” Indeed, Jehovah’s Witnesses are often commended for adorning “themselves in respectable dress, with modesty and good judgment . . . in the way that is proper for [those] pro- fessing devotion to God.” Anyone notice they quoted a Dutch newspaper and even put the quotes in brackets, but never mentioned who the writer was or any way to verify the veracity of the article. I,LL BET you 40 quarters that there was never any magazine that would bother to criticize the dress of "church leaders", if they did, it would be labeled as non-news worthy. So far I haven't turned up any magazine on google search and probably won't find anything, just another printed imaginary boast.

I was shocked as you were Dio, that they could continually use this failed policy to the newby,s, like it could happen over the weekend. Since this is on their Facebook site, you can look at all the zombie like comments coming from their constituents. It is truly sad to see the hope and unwavering belief that still remains in people. None of these lies will ever come true, so it looks like a list of things similar to what children ask from Santa. Those watching Santa know their wishes won't come true, even Santa knows thay won't come true, but the children truly believe in Santa Clause(GB), and are ecstatic about their future of receiving those imaginary gifts. Sad

Millionaire JW Elder hypocrite?!
by Alostpuppydog inso i know one should remove his own stick from his own eye before ones self judges another, but i noticed something.
it seems that the wealthy witnesses are the elders, the circuit overseers, the governing body... are they really different from any other 'worldly' religions or even organizations?
i mean look at the jewels the friggen pope wears.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9LliGZiG18 Televangelists have been scamming suckers since the invention of television. When I was growing up, i remember Oral Roberts on Tv asking for the weak and sick to send in at least $500 to just get prayed for.

Hillary Clinton Winning total vote count but loses the Election
by RubaDub indo those of you outside the usa find it odd that in a presidential election, the total number of people casting votes means nothing?
there is a method we use here called the electoral college based on each state rather than the total votes cast by actual people.. this is, i believe the 5th time in america's history that the person with the most votes lost the election (the last was in 2000 when al gore beat george w. bush by about 400,000 votes but lost the election).. so hillary (at the moment i last checked) had overall about 200,000 more votes nationwide but lost.. i'm sure a lot of people in other countries scratch their heads when they see this happening.. rub a dub.

What would the US look like if there was just a governing body that made all the decisions? I shutter to imagine it.
