  It is indeed a Cadillac. A 2002 or so STS. They are heaping expensive junk now. The NorthStar V8's turned to shit.

  Unlikely Place For a JW Reference

  by TD in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  probably a useless piece of trivia, but then i have a trivial mind..... unless i'm color blind, two of the band members in rammstein's recent music video, deutschland, are depicted as bible students.. from left to right, oliver riedel wears a pink triangle, (homosexual) paul landers wears a yellow star of david, (jewish) till lindemann wears a yellow & purple star of david (jewish bible student) and christian lorenz wears a simple purple triangle (gentile bible student).

  Caught that as well. The vid is pretty fuggin' brutal. Shocking, really. The one SS Guard has a Swastika armband. In Germany, anything like that is strictly forbidden, for fear of promoting it. Apparently Rammstein doesn't give a fugg.

  The Anointed Apostate: the Remarkable Sister Pettifog

  by TerryWalstrom in

  (on the anniversary of my jw best friend's death, i've reached into my archive to replay this incident in his honor)

  the remarkable sister *pettifog*.

  this morning i arrived on my bicycle at the local starbucks early and took up a seat at the outdoor table in the fresh air.. that’s when it happened--a group of 3 older ladies at one of the other tables outside rose to leave and one of them walked over to my table and spoke directly to me.

  Thank you for relating this story once again. Truly remarkable. I would LOVE to have seen the dear late sister's letter to the Elduh's and WTBTS. Can you imagine?

  Related to your story in a round about way.......I was probably born around the same time period of Sister Pettifrog's passing. According to the WTB&TS's "New Light", we're an "Overlapping Generation." SMH. What convoluted bullshit will these charlatans and false prophets come up with next?

  a study of religious retention rates–that is, what percentage of people raised in a particular church or religion stay with it when they are grown–is quite interesting.

  https://www.patheos.com/blogs/geneveith/2012/07/religious-retention-rates/.

  jdubs have alittle over 36%.

  Mormons at 70% retention? How old is this? I find that hella hard to believe considering the size of the Ex-Mormon sub over on Reddit. They are leaving in DROVES, far more than JW's even.

  If you aren't warming a seat in the Kingdumb Hell, than you might as well not exist in JW-Land. I know this to be true, because I experienced it.

  I just watched "Leaving Neverland." I'm pretty stunned. I mean, I knew MJ was not normal, but now I'm positive he groomed families and young boys to molest them. No doubt about it. He was a sick, evil, pedo-monster. He was probably molested himself as a child.

  Barbara Streisand is a quack loon. She is completely clueless as to how victims of child sexual abuse behave, and it shows.

  The Governing Body have their lakeside retreat all built and paid for. What do they care how far people have to drive? Just keep sending them your hard-earned money. Oh, and OBEY.

  I grew up going to District Conventions at The Vet, in the middle of summer of course. It was sweltering. I hated every minute. Due to the poor acoustics of the concrete monstrosity, if you sat anywhere besides right up front all you heard was reverberating echo all the way up. Attending DC's there was a complete waste of time. I still have photos from my childhood showing my family there. It was miserable. My JW parents and grandma? Dead. I'm the only one left, and refuse to subject my own son to this level of abuse.

  I never got to see a baseball or football game there. SAD. Been to the new stadiums, Pittsburgh and Baltimore as well. I prefer Pittsburgh out over any of the rest. Camden Yards was nice when it was built.

  Is New Zealand right to ban military style guns?

  by ThomasCovenant in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in response to the recent terrorist attack in new zealand their government is proposing to ban semi automatic and military style weaponry.. do you agree with this idea?.

  would they be  better off allowing more of these weapons instead?.

  would it be better to perhaps allow more of the muslim community for example, to be armed with semi automatic guns to protect themselves at their places of worship?.

  Sometimes personal rights need to be mitigated by personal responsibilities and acting for the greater good.

  ^ When personal rights and freedoms are removed under the guise of doing it for the "greater good", then you are on the downhill slide to not just Socialism, but Communism and tyranny. This is how ALL tyrannies and dictatorships have started out. Good luck with that.
