Disgusting, anyone who values the rule of law should condemn Russias actions.

Very well spoken.
I could not agree with you more.

there has been a raid on a large jehovahs witness gathering in norilsk, above the arctic circle, according to the moscow times.. a building with 50 jws inside was surrounded by masked, armed special forces forces who burst into the building and demanded they surrender all electronic devices.. i'll link the article but it's obviously going to drive these witnesses deeper into the religion.
not to mention the images conjured up in the report are likely to be used by watchtower as more fear mongering, since its very much like last year's terrifying assembly videos where witnesses were huddled in a field and surrounded with similarly masked, armed men.. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2019/10/22/russian-special-agents-raid-jehovahs-witnesses-resort-as-crackdown-intensifies-a67855.

i don’t think that the world needs that many brooding psychopathic avengers.
i don’t know that we need any........they’ve lost a lot of their original innocence, and they can’t get that back.
and, they’re stuck, it seems, in this kind of depressive ghetto of grimness and psychosis.

Wife and I are not huge movie people but we will see it in the next week or so. Sounds very interesting! Thanks for your reviews.

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.
As I mentioned earlier in this thread (and quoting the Apostle Paul), it all comes down to the zero year.

this has been a bug bear my whole life i think and not really sure how to address it as nobody else ever seems to do so.. and it relates to the question if god really created humans .
he did a shithouse job in this regard.. i can`t speak for females this is entirely a male thing.
from my perspective.. male adolescents at a very ,very young age , babies , get erections periodically and it has nothing to do with sexual fantasies ,because they don`t even have an awareness of sex between a male and a female at this time.. and it is second inbuilt nature to masturbate to relieve, get rid of the erection .
I still haven't seen any comments here on the Hebrew and Greek words for woody.

I bet it has to do with that zero year. Everybody blames the zero year. If something is off, blame the zero year.
If you like 537 instead of 536, blame the zero year.
If you like 536 instead of 537, blame the zero year.
If you put a turkey in the oven and overcook it, blame the zero year.
If your car is under warranty and you miss getting it serviced on time, blame the zero year.
The WT says CT Russell got his calculations messed up due to the zero year.
Even 2 Corinthians 12:16 mentions, "Be watchful my brothers. There is a f'n zero year out there seeking to devour the faithful".
Friends, be careful.

the so-called caliph, one of the most evil men in human history, has blown himself up along with three of his young children while being pursued by american special forces.. the ambition of isis was to expand the territory of the caliphate under the leadership of al-baghdadi to whom individual jihadists swear allegiance.
now isis have nowhere to call home and no leader.
what a pathetic bunch of losers.. they will of course appoint a new caliph and reprisal attacks will no doubt follow in western capitals by christmas but the more contemptible they appear they less likely it is that young men and women will join their delusional cause.. respect to the elite forces who hunted him down - those on the front line and the many intelligence specialists who made it possible.
Praise for Trump for getting al-Baghdadi or for Obama getting Osama bin-Laden is pure window dressing. I don't think either (especially Trump if a hotel was not involved) could put a pin on a map of the Middle East as to where most of the countries are such as Kuwait, Yemen, UAE, etc. Even most members of the Cabinet really have no clue on the details.
Presidents rely on the information they receive from the heads of the respective agencies, CIA, NSA, Armed Forces, etc. When they think they have a high percentage opportunity to take out one of the main targets they inform the President.
The President says, "OK"
If successful, the President boasts and preens about how he directed the operation.
These intelligence operations take many years. In the al-Baghdadi case, it's being reported that he has been followed by US Intelligence since 2015. In the Osama bin Laden case, it also was many years, even pre-dating Obama back to the George W Bush years.
I personally never read too much into who is President at the time that Intelligence says they have positively identified a target and have a plan for his removal.

To add some intelligent insight into this thread, I'm trying to look up the Hebrew and Greek words for woody.

so if someone puts their life into serving the cult for free at bethel, then say after 25 or 30 years they are not able to for one reason or another such as illness, or family issue or old age, does the cult have any safety net for these people or is it you serve until you can't and when you can't you just go away?
.
Older Bethelites are sent out to pasture ... that's it.

Maybe if Obama had not been so pandering to Islam a few more Americans would be alive.

If I do properly recall, Obama was in charge to eliminate (kill) Osama Bin Laden.

look at what is happening in europe now, the filth that is trying to enter here.. https://youtu.be/putezss32m8.

To keep me in good favors here on this website, I like Trump, I love Trump.
I really like the bird nest thing he puts on his head. Kurds are not real people.
I am getting a Trump tattoo on my lower portions. My wife said she will be using a blindfold in those "special" moments. But then, who is she?
In any case, Trump in 2020, 2024, 2028, 2034, 2036 ... or for time indefinite, even forever.
I have that special feeling.
