the guy don't realize when he attack john mccain he alienated every men .
and women who served in the military.
and this is coming from a guy that.
It's surprising, most people I talk too about Trump say this, " yes he
is a screw ball but some of the things he speaks about I agree".
Toughing up on immigration or immigration reform is something that a lot of people would support. So even though some of his comments come across as racist, it is pressing the right buttons in some people.

in view of the conti verdict of negligence by the org, are elders who are selected by the c.o.

"charity trustees face potential liabilities in a number of ways.
so ofs was at the wt this morning, and on par.
14 the question was, "what trust can a faithful christian whose relative is disfellowshipped have?".
after awhile when no one else raised their hands ofs did, and was called on.. ofs commented, "one of jw can have the trust that god will lovingly give them the ability to uphold the disfellowshipping arrangement by totally shunning family members.".
it seems to me that the religion is nearly dead.
or dying.
very little pulse exists for the organization.
Stay alive until 2025 has a nice ring to it-
Reminds me of some witness I knew before 1975. They were terminal ill with cancer and they would say if only I can just hang on till 1975 and be healed in the new system. Well they didn't make 1975 but it would have made no difference anyway.
hi, i'm new here but hadn't seen this mentioned anywhere yet.
during the "imitate jesus" rc there was a strange moment where they played a video of a brother trying to explain the 1914 teaching.
the brother quickly goes through all the scriptural "proofs" and the householder is dumbfounded.
Like someone said above, this religion has jumped the shark in recent years. The serious religion of my youth is DEAD. This is what is in it's place....dumbed down idiotic nonsense. At least the Oracle Fred Franz's stuff wanted you to think and examine things.
I have to agree with you. Even though the 1960 publications were made up fiction by Fred Franz, they at least made you think a bit. I know that in the last few years when I was still married to a dub and had a bit of contact with organization, the literature just seemed to be getting more and more dumbed down

a situation regarding this religion has developed which i fear might have negative implications on me and wifes lives, and i'm looking for thoughts and advice in how to approach the situation.
i'll start with some background information to enlighten the situation.. i'm a male in mid-twenties, raised secularly, married to an ex-jw woman (on paper still a jw though), who's been raised in the jw religion, although somewhat untheocratically shall i say.
for instance her mother has 5 children with 3 different men, all non-jws, and has had many other relationships as well.
this photo can be found in the april 15 , study edition article titled:.
why disfellowshipping is a loving provision.
just by looking at this image we can see how quickly the barrier between the congregation and former member is put up, after the announcement that this sister is no longer one of jehovah's witneses.
i am not sure if this has being discussed.
i just watch "deadly devotion" on id channel.
the episode was entitled, witness to murder.
