just a heads-up that i will be testing some updates this evening.. the nature of the changes means it's difficult to test every scenario in advance offline (translation: it's a lot more effort and i just can't be bothered) so i'm going to go with the "wing-it" approach:.

deploy, check for errors, try to fix errors before anyone else notices them.. i can switch between the new and old version pretty quickly so if there are significant issues, i'll rollback and revert the changes while i work on the fixes.

worse case is the pages won't display quite right (dates might be a giveaway) but a full page refresh should fix things.. http://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/.

I guess I need to be a little more careful typing sentences until you get it fixed. I should proof read it more before I hit the post button.

total hypocrisy once again..

Brokeback Watchtower

The Watchtower Corporation is stand of giving humans celebrities any type of adulation is a form of worship and is idolatry condemned by Jehovah their corporation mascot and invisible leader, and adulation of the Governing Body is not the same is due to extreme compartmentalization in their puny little delusional minds.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compartmentalization_(psychology)

Compartmentalization is an unconscious psychological defense mechanism used to avoid cognitive dissonance, or the mental discomfort and anxiety caused by a person's having conflicting values, cognitions, emotions, beliefs, etc. within themselves.

Compartmentalization allows these conflicting ideas to co-exist by inhibiting direct or explicit acknowledgement and interaction between separate compartmentalized self states.[1]...

Vulnerability[edit]

Compartmentalization may lead to hidden vulnerabilities in those who use it as a major defense mechanism.[6]

Those suffering from borderline personality disorder will often divide people into all good versus all bad, to avoid the conflicts removing the compartments would inevitably bring, using denial or indifference to protect against any indications of contradictory evidence.[7]

Using indifference towards a better viewpoint is a normal and common example of this. It can be caused by someone having used multiple compartment ideals and having been uncomfortable with modifying them, at risk of being found incorrect. This often causes double-standards, and bias.[citation needed]

How can elders say how Jehovah feels?

by Sour Grapes in

when we look at the total universe imagine a jar of sand.

just one grain of sand would be our galaxy so we may be able to see our earth with an electron microscope.

with that in mind, it always made we cringe when at the meetings an elder would say "jehovah has prepared a spiritual banquet for us tonight," or "it makes jehovah happy that we made the effort to attend the meeting tonight.

If Jehovah is not a human, he doesn't have human type feelings. Therefore I think we can safely deduce that any supposed feelings one attributes to the deity of one's choice to be merely a projection of one's own feelings and a assumption based on a childlike notion that a particular deity has feeling much like our own.

The bible's assumption that God created man in his image/likeness, is the opposite of what is true, more correctly it can be said that man created the idea of a Deity in man's image and likeness.

Every persons got to do what right for them when it comes to this cult, while I personally could never fake it I can see that others could it all depends on circumstance and temperament. I can judge someone until I walk a mile in his shoes.

and then the laws of thermodynamic happen and things go from order to more disorder as far as information goes it gets more and more disorganized until the universe just becomes a true vacuum again of perhaps infinite proportion. Yin and Yang thing 0+1+0+1+1.
