Do You Think That Belonging To Certain Political Parties Suggests You Are Uneducated or Poor?

by minimus in

jw

i hear some people say that if you are a republican or democrat that you must not be very educated, intelligent or monetarily stable.

.

do you think it’s proper to paint any person as less than favorable because of their political opinions?

RubaDub

Yes, Min, there are rich and poor democrats, rich and poor republicans, rich and poor independents.

It's just that in a recent Fox News Poll, the poorer democrats and independents tend to have teeth and not play the banjo.

Did Jeruselm fall in 587 or 586 BCE?

by Doug Mason in

i came across this article written in 2004 by an evangelical.. “when did jerusalem fall?”, rodger young, journal of the evangelical society [jets], 47/1 (march 2004), 21-38.. http://www.rcyoung.org/articles/jerusalem.pdf .

these are the conclusions of the 18-page analysis.

(1) jerusalem fell in the fourth month (tammuz) of 587 bc.

When we finally have the answer, we can then move on to the next topic of whether the leading edge of Ezekiel's Wheel within a Wheel was turning clockwise or counter-clockwise.

Spiral ...

Thank you. I will have one ordered today and get down the basics for jw dot org before I give it to them. I can see how it would be good for someone older that cannot really read that well anymore and well, technically challenged.

I don't mind helping them but it's the same thing over and over ... can't find this, where is the remote, are the batteries good, why does the GB use Roku instead of a regular channel, blah blah blah.

Since it plugs in, they can just sit in their house and listen to the stuff all day ... that would be great for me!

Bluesbrother ...

Thanks for the info.

I do have an elderly uncle and aunt who struggle with technology and even have problems at times figuring the jw dot org stuff due to their eyesight. Even switching over to the Roku from the remote and then back can be a challenge. I am the one that ends up going to their place and try to explain how all the stuff works.

If the Echo does the daily text and maybe the study article from the WT for the week, that would really save me a lot of aggravation when they get "stuck" with something and I get that phone call asking for help.

I will check out the Echo since I do not have one of these devices in my own home. I do see they have a Gen 3 thing for about $100 on amazon. I also see they have a 3.5 audio jack on the back which would be good if the sound coming from the small speaker is not the best.

The Watchtower stole from me and you too

by rickroll in

think of how much time and money the tower stole from any who were in the cult.

think of the vacations as a child you could have taken with your families the memories you could have made instead of sitting in a hot bs week of echo talks and propaganda.

they stole so much from us.

Nothing like spending a week in the sweltering hot July sun at Veterans Stadium

WingC ...

You are bringing back some horrid memories of the heat in that hell-hole called Veterans Stadium. Even if you were at the top in the 700 section (yellow seats) it was still hell in July/August. A stadium that was just one big circle and the field was about 30 feet below the street level. No air to circulate at all and that old Astroturf just held the heat, nothing like regular grass.

I remember a baseball game there where it was so hot, the players were taking their shoes off and soaking them between innings because their feet were so hot running on the field.

A nightmare so sit through an ass embly.

November 2019 Watchtower (Would love to hear the comments in the hall)

by pleaseresearch in

from the november 2019 watchtower study edition.. how many of you would like to know what the brothers and sisters would respond to this question.

also, if you went into a hall how would you like to respond to the question.. 8. how should we respond to lies?.

8 satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

RubaDub

Given the right moment, I will ask someone what specific lies anyone has heard on TV.

The closest anyone will come will be .... "well, they distort the information" or something in general.

I will ask for the specific show and time. What are the odds that that I get nothing specific?
