  The Ever-Changing Song Book

  by Cimarrona in

  2. experiences

  the songs in the old brown song book were way better than these new ones.

  had they not changed the songs, i may never have left (halfway joking).

  they gave no feeling, no soul (but of course there's no such thing as soul or whatever)!

  If WT are cutting back on mags will they also cut back on Bethelites?

  by truthseeker in

  2. friends

  i was thinking after hearing about the agm cutbacks to the mags and other website content surely they will end up dismissing more bethelites?

  i would have thought in the old days, before the web, an artist or writer at bethel would have been a full time job making content for four 32 page mags a month.

  now what are these guys going to do?.

  Yeah, hurry up and build the new UK HQ on the Sheeple's dime and time, and then put it right up on the auction block. Rake in that $$$$$$$.

  I'm honestly not surprised by all these closing and layoffs. To me, since the new Warwick Cult Compound was completed, and it is so huge, there really is no use for ANY of the branches, anywhere. Every single piece of literature, video, etc can be produced at Warwick and distributed worldwide. Heck, with today's global printing industry, it's probably just cheaper to write the literature, send it to the proper printing facility in that country, and have it printed off for the Congregations and delivered. WT Org is totally streamlined. I foresee a future where the Warwick HQ is THE ONLY facility on the globe. Totally centralized.

  Damon Wayans was apparently at 2017 Annual Meeting

  from this post on reddit.com/r/exjw, damon wayans was at the 2017 annual meeting.

  the wayans were raised as jw's but i don't think any of them stated.. strange to see him here.

  this is the same man who defended bill cosby from all the sex abuse allegations..

  The only active member of the Wayons clan that I recall, was the sister, who was also on "In Living Color" with her brothers. After the show, she married an Elder and left entertainment.

  Hard to believe Damon would actually be involved with this crap. Honestly? I think it's just a guy that really LOOKS like Damon Wayons.

  It's tragic to be sure, but it really makes one wonder how JW's will spin this. What do I mean?

  Well for one, since when do die-hard JW's attend worldly concerts and festivals in Sin City, LAS VEGAS????

  Answer: They don't. I can almost guarantee this woman will be held up as an example of what NOT to do, labeled as "weak", and also have it stated that she got was she deserved for being wrapped up and attending such "worldly" events. If she had been at home studying her WT literature and preparing for Monday morning Field Service, she wouldn't have been there and not have had to worry about being killed by some maniac who was controlled by Satan. See what happens when you mix with "the World?" And on, and on, and on. The remaining family will be given little sympathy for their loss, and instead, have to hear the "tsk, tsk" from the local old holier-than-thou Piosneer Sister bitches.

  I'm honestly FOR more gun laws that restrict what types of people have access to weapons. Silencers are the least of the problem. I can make a Silencer out of a Maglite flashlight casing and some ordinary items found in your local hardware store. No law against it could change my ability to do it. Any "loop holes" SHOULD be closed. I go to plenty of "Gun Shows", and in this state (Pennsylvania) you can't just walk in, slap money down on the table, and walk out with a firearm. Proper ID, paperwork, and immediate insta-check background check is req'd. This whole "Gun Show" crap I hear touted out, is absolute bullshit!!

  Timothy McVeigh used a U-Haul truck filled with ammonium nitrate to detonate and kill hundreds of people in 1995. No gun req'd. Same thing on 9/11......box cutters and planes. These sick people are going to kill people no matter what, if that is their intention.

  There have been guns in America since it's very inception. Up until I'd say about the 1960's, they weren't a problem. Kids would take .22's out and hunt squirrels. Boys had them mounted to the back inside of their pickup truck window's as they drove to school. No one did anything, no one killed anyone, and if they did, it was a very, VERY rare occurrence. Society as a whole is totally F*CKED on this planet.

  Anyway, they have strict knife laws in Australia and Europe. No lock-back knives, autos, or anything over a 2" blade. Funny, the freakin' Islam-o-turds use machette's and AK's when they go hunting infidels in Europe. Oh, and vans. They seem to just LOVE running thru crowds with vans. No guns allowed. Hmmm. This world has gone to shit, truly it has. I'm up for moving to Washington State, Idaho, or Montana. As close to Canada as I can get, without actually have to live with their restrictive laws and shitty healthcare system. The southern USA has been overrun with illegal immigrants, bedbugs, exotic mosquito's, brown recluse spiders, and those new "Kissing Bugs". Screw that. I'm up for cooler, rural climate.

  For anyone not in the USA not familiar with our gun laws:

  1.) Felons (convicted criminals) are not allowed to purchase firearms of any kind.

  2.) People with a history of mental illness which led to them being involuntarily committed to a mental institution, may not purchase or own a firearm.

  3.) Anyone thrown out of the military cannot purchase/own a firearm.

  4.) Illegal aliens cannot purchase/own a firearm.

  5.) Background checks are done INSTANTLY at dealers, thru the phone, to check your credentials, citizenship, military record, criminal record, etc. No one can anonymously buy a firearm. If you are a firearm owner, and sell a firearm yourself, you and your firearm purchaser must go to a firearm dealer to have the insta-check done and the paperwork completed.

  6.) Not just anyone can own a fully automatic weapon. That is a class 3 license, etc. You'd have to be practically military, ex-military, or current law enforcement to even qualify. You can be a regular citizen, but the background check, paperwork, and just the MONEY it costs to apply disqualifies most. And the weaponry? Only a Class 3 FFL dealer even have automatic weapons, and if you don't have $25,000.00 just lying around, guess what? You are not in that league.

  The nutcases you see with fully automatic weapons are converting them themselves which is against the law. But then again, they are criminals that have probably stolen semi-automatic weapons to begin with, and therefore don't care about the laws.

  There are millions of firearm owners in this country, and TRILLIONS of rounds of ammunition. 99.95% of us are responsible. The gangs, criminals and thugs steal from them from us, use them, and continue to resell them. How did a Somali immigrant get a gun and shoot up a Baptist Church the other week? Not because he could legally get one, that's for damn sure!!!

  Time will tell what this new shooter in Las Vegas was up to. He was a 64 yr old guy. Who knows if he was ex-Military, and screwed up in the head? Who knows if he had converted to radical Islam? I can tell you this though from watching the video, he had something along the lines of an AK-47, or possibly an M-40, M-60 machine gun. I'd say AK-47, due to the rounds fired before he had to grab another magazine and reload. A true machine gun is usually belt fed. He could have shot hundreds of rounds before reloading if it was an M-60. And this guy was up 30+ floors, and NOT out on the balcony. There was ZERO muzzle flash shown on the video's I've seen. He was back in the room, using cover like a sniper, but spraying the crowd.

  A truly sad day for America. But hey, this is not supposed to be political forum, right? These threads never end well on this forum, usually due to the Canucks and UK, etc telling the USA how much better they all have it since they are un-armed Sheeple. To them I ask, "How's that working out for you? How does living under the Queen/King rule, working out for you? How are you enjoying your Islamic slums governed by Sharia Law?" Don't worry, we got it hear too.......in America we call it Dearborn, Michigan. It looks like the Middle East in Dearborn.

  So let me get this straight: They knew you (a volunteer for 4 years) were leaving that day, and instead of taking you to the bus stop or hailing you a cab, they sent you off packin' in the pouring, NYC rain? (I've been in that exact type of rain in NYC, so I feel ya). What a bunch of fucking assholes!!!!!! My, what fine, LOVING shepherds these users are. And that's exactly what they are - USERS!!!

  just wanted to say a big hello to everyone, my first post on here was actually yesterday but it was deleted.. so will keep this one short to save my precious time just in case its also deleted or lost.. got fed up with years of persecution from within the congregations.

  the lack of genuine friendship & lack of 'christian love'.

  having personally seen many a scandalous behaviour i began doing some research online some years ago.

  Maybe someone in the UK can tell me, but is there REALLY a huge purge going on in Hull with the Congregations? We're hearing it being talked about, even see some articles in the news over it due to the shunning policy. What the hell is going on?

  A Korean Tragedy

  by fulltimestudent in

  2. friends

  the modern history is full of deep, dark tragedies.

  and, my intention, as i sat down to write of those tragedies for a fb page i look after for a macquarie university student society, was to tell the story of these very dark contemporary events.

  but east asia history is complex and i think its helpful to try to have an overview of that history to understand what has happened in the recent past.

  Luv this gem, from an obvious dimwit! The "Ring of Fire" is always active, has been since before we came along. Nothing new. That's why it's called the "Ring of Fire." What a bunch of dumbasses.
  

  "Lots of activity in the Pacific 'Ring of Fire', lately."
