jackie kennedy was considered the most beautiful for years.
melania trump is obviously an ex model.
michelle obama has been touted as a true beauty.

last night was the co's visit.
prior to his part, an elder had a part on following theocratic direction.
it was about our congregation being deleted (there are 2 sharing this hall) and the people and territory being divided up to the 4 other surrounding ones.. they say it is not about numbers but about making best use of resources.
It sort of sounds like your KH is being disfellowshipped.
Maybe after some time has passed, it will be reinstated.

after posting on another thread it became apparent to me that it can be difficult for some ex jws to totally shake off all wt teaching , even after leaving the org.
do you still feel guilty going into a church for a wedding or a funeral .
can you bring yourself to celebrate birthdays or christmas .
I'm still in, but I look around and feel a bit of guilt if I use more than one towel in the restroom.

isn't trump shooting himself in the foot when he is on the verge of (or already in) a trade war with china?
isn't walmart like 95% chinese stuff?.
won't there be a backlash when many of his supporters that want to upgrade to indoor plumbing see how much it costs with all the tariffs?
I'm confused.
If, as Trump has said repeatedly, that China is paying for the tariffs, then why would it affect the prices we pay?
Wouldn't it stand to reason that if prices do or have risen, that China is NOT paying the tariffs?
I don't see how Trump can have it both ways.

I don't understand why Trump is holding back some of the tariffs until after Christmas.
Since China is paying for the tariffs, why not have the additional tariffs go in immediately and maybe add another 10-20% on top of that and make the Chinese pay even more.
It's great to have a country like China help pay down our national debt!

the fact that there are pomi ex-jws who have been disfellowshiped or inactive for years who still live in constant fear of armageddon indicates that watchtower will manage to exist in one way or another for years, if not decades, to come.
watchtower, like all other religious cults, operate on the premise that "you can fool some of the people all of the time...and that's enough!
".
When a person is DFd does the Org subtract them from that same number or not?
millie ...
Technically yes.
But from what I have ever seen, the Borg does not report number of current members who are baptized. It reports average publishers and peak publishers.
There are many baptized persons who are not publishers and many publishers who are not baptized.
Obviously, a person who is DF/DA is not considered a publisher.

open discussion.
the rich and powerful vs the struggling poor.. the 1% we all hear about.... is it fair that a tiny minority has more and wins more often than the rest of us?____.
(let's make a survey).
I don't vote/ never have - but IF I were going to vote in 2020
it would be Tulsi Gabbard.
Terry ...
Yes, of the Dems, she appears to me to be the most level-headed and reasonable one of the bunch. She would have my vote (if I could ... lol).

If you're a PIMO guy, just explain to her that if you get a woody that neither one of you will touch it.

would you stop buying nike products because you didn’t like their politics?
conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?
would you stop watching an entertainer because you disagree with their political perspectives?
I guess I do to an extent.
I would not buy from Hobby Lobby when I can go to Michaels.
I would not buy from Chick-Fil-A no matter how good some people say it tastes. I guess they think people don't eat on Sundays. Plus just about everyone else sells chicken sandwiches.
Oh, and Dominos Pizza. I never really liked it that much anyway.
