  The fireworks were great to watch, or was it protests. Did Obama pardon Hillary? I remember in my work coming across an old lady, that was almost as histerical as some are now , when Obama was elected in 2008. She said he was the anti christ and in her own way thought it was the end of the world. We did ok under Obama and we will do ok with this character, If he gets off course, they can impeach him, and this time congress won't be afraid to impeach because voters won't call them racists. I think it is time for the pendalum to swing back, to give the other side time to regroup and re troup.

  Growing up I had to attend this king of service and I just deplored when they asked you to raise your hand and sway. I refused to copy all the other "Jesus Freaks" as they were called, and just watched. Its almost as if you were agreeing to everything the leader was saying if you raised your hand, and if you just stood there or sat there, you were looked upon as an outsider, a non-believer, someone to shun...other religions have their means of DA,d

  which world is this?_________________when the doctor pulled my screaming body out of mom all those 7 decades ago, i landed in a post-wwii world.it was--compared to today's world--an alien planet.. the world i live in today has nothing in common with the world in which i grew up.. there were no cell phones back then--there were black telephones with a dial-tone and an operator who placed your call.

  everywhere you found telephone booths!

  a call was a nickle.where did all those telephone booths go?i dunno.where did my whole world go?i dunno.. tv sets were huge boxes with tubes and small screens.

  I bought a betamax at Sears for $900 and 2 years later got a VCR/camcorder at Rich,s for $1200 and boy was I the latest geek in the neighborhood. All the weddings, friends were asking to bring the camera and "tape" it for their memories.

  i have been doing research on the arc as some people on here have suggested.

  i find it interesting on the case file analysis some of the findings.

  it looks like queensland and new south wales had the biggest problems with this.

  doesn't this environment encourage the pedofile to seek out kingdom halls, because he or she knows they won't be reported as readily as anywhere else. seems like they would be the next "great crowd" to enter into the kingdom halls. Such an environment creeps me out, and this alone keeps me out and I'm sure others. Any new studies should be looked upon as suspect, especially if they just "showed up"

  i have seen some discussions related to the "kingdom" book, and the recent studies, but, i didn't see the one pertaining to the second chapter of the "kingdom" book.

  i may have missed it.

  if i have ...mea culpa.. chapter 2, paragraph 29 & 33.

  “9 Some may feel that they can interpret the Bible on their own. However, Jesus has appointed the ‘faithful slave’ to be the only channel for dispensing spiritual food. Since 1919, the glorified Jesus Christ has been using that slave to help his followers understand God’s own Book and heed its directives. By obeying the instructions found in the Bible, we promote cleanness, peace, and unity in the congregation. Each one of us does well to ask himself, ‘Am I loyal to the channel that Jesus is using today?’

  ”

  Excerpt From: WATCHTOWER. “The Watchtower, November 2016.” iBooks.

  So they just change 1914 to 1919 willi nilli.? Lies are now in every paragraph, and they are proud of it.

  Then he said, “Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom.” Jesus replied, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in Paradise.”

  Some of the representatives in our congress are beyond nuts, if you can listen to this guy that thinks Guam can tip over and sink from overpopulation. Just shows you, not all who win elections are intelligent .

  When your teams looses in the playoffs and you are such a sore looser, you blame it on the refs or a deflated ball, or bad coaching, but it was never your teams fault, even if your team won more of the oh so popular yardage, but lost in the final score, just accept it and wait till next year(or 4 years) to try again.
