  Well any kind of hacking done by a foreign power on government officials to get information that can hurt them getting elected should be considered as a serious offence, and cast serious doubts on the legitimacy of his presidency.

  This might snow ball I'm hoping if not impeachment is just around the corner if Trump don't divest himself of all business interest. And give a full disclosure of funds and tax information to the American public as is only proper to avoid any conflict of interest in running the US government.

  Plus, the complete absence of so many emails shows she is untrustworthy.

  You may be right, definitely trying to hide something, but emails should be private to the recipient unless they want to make them public, which also may be another reason and less black and white like you suppose.

  It's "thrilling" in the GB's mind's eye to give money to their organization. Mere wishful thinking by the Governing Body when you down right think about it. In their dreams it's thrilling probably better than any sex a crusty old GB will have with his hated body part.

  Random Thoughts on Getting Older

  by Lee Elder in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  the reality that all of us ultimately must face is that we get older and our bodies, and our minds eventually fail us.

  i have seen this first hand in my family, in the jw community, and in the ex-jw community.

  it is simply a sad part of the human condition, as is physical, emotional, and mental illness.

  I'm chiming in at 63!

  Yeah getting older makes you take a closer look at death and sickness and all the things that come with getting older. I think about both sets of grandparents more and what they went through facing the grim reaper.

  On a positive note: I think a lot about my childhood and see how first learned things and how my ideas have changed and matured with the passing of time and better understandings. Sorta a review and make sense of the whole experience thing going on with me.

  Giving money to the WT corporation is only thrilling if your completely and totally brainwashed by corporation directives that tells you how to feel about giving money to them, remember and repeat the mantra: Listen, Obey, and be Bless by the Watchtower dudes.

  Not a sympathizer

  by Richard Oliver in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i think everyone here is under the impression that i am a watchtower sympathizer, i am not.

  i just like facts and when people say things, which are their opinions but that facts point out as not being true, than that is when i get so motivated to make a comment.

  i have read posts here, listened to six screens and read jwsurvey and seen things that people say, which are opinion, but pass them off as fact.. there are legitimate things that people on here and former jws have concerns over without manipulating what is said or trying to pass off opinion as a fact.

  Why JW's have a paedophile problem

  by Splash in

  i just ran across this quote which resonated with me.. by way of introduction, hmp whatton is europe's largest prison for contact and non contact sex offenders against adults and children.

  it's based in nottinghamshire in the uk.. david potter is one of hmp whatton's most experienced facilitators of treatment programmes.. in an interview with the bbc he said "in groups, a lot of the work we do is aimed at building the self-esteem of people that have committed a sexual offence, because a lot of sexual offending is as a direct result of low self-esteem.

  in groups we try and build their sense of self worth.".

  I think you may be onto something, as in : you got to love yourself before you can really love others.

  For sure their are other factors but the one you mentioned must be the main one IMO.
