The Brain dead person that said Psalms 127:1 is proof that only Jokehova can build something and all others are in vain, just shows how blind they are to anything but what they see at the kingdumb halls. Would like to see his response to ask him if Jokehova built the pyramids.

As the Fed continues to raise rates in 2017, higher mortgage rates will follow. If the prospect of higher mortgage rates compels you to a home sooner than later, you won't be alone.

"Higher mortgage rates could push buyers off the fence -- increasing demand, increasing prices and increasing home equity so that more people can sell their homes," says Joel Naroff, president of Naroff Economic Advisors in Holland, Pennsylvania.

Why are Republican's so consistantly dishonest?

by Coded Logic in

it hasn't gone unnoticed that the republicans who are saying, "we need to get to the bottom of the obama wiretapping" and "let's investigate this" - are the same people, when it comes to trump's russian ties, who are saying, "we shouldn't look at this at all - it's just a bunch of lies and hype.".

no evidence whatsoever for claims about obama need a congressional investigation.

but mountains of evidence about trump with more coming out everyday can be swept under the rug.

The Governing Body is not dishonest either.(sarcasim inserted here).

Local Elder Mentions this Site from the Platform

by James Jack in

a local elder had the part this week on the "good news" brochure.

he said: "if the householder has any questions, direct them to jw.org, don't say, just look up jehovah's witnesses on the internet(an older sister said this at the door), if you do they will be directed to a site visited by apostates and weak witnesses!

" "this mistake, would cause the householder to never accept bible truth".. i thought to myself, wow, i'm sure some listening to this part, will get curious now(many in the hall are just being exposed to the internet, and practicing with their new tablets) and do, just what they were told not to do..

Same reasoning as a timeshare presentation by the resort. Several years ago, we went to one of these to get a discount on an excursion and when the sales person left us alone, I googled the resort and found so many people trying to sell theirs at pennies on the dollar. The sales person came back and I showed them what i had found and they were clearly upset I had compared shopping. Any wonder in this age of instant comparison, that any more people can be fooled by "flowery talk" is a reflection on the listener, that they have just not kept up with technology , which can cut thru the BS and show them the scam.
