  Why is it so hard to see that what is happening with the virus would be happening no matter who was president? ......It's an apolitical virus.

  @millie210 ...

  Yes. I totally agree.

  But when you want to be a bastard, call people names, be a narcissist and base all of your presidency on the economy, and then it collapses, well, then you have to live with the results, no matter how it happened.

  You know the "live by the sword, die by the sword" quote in the Bible.

  You can ride the wave and keep calling people you don't like "sons-of-bitches." But when a person gets laid off and the 401k/retirement account drops just see what happens.

  Back off negative-thinking people ... the celestial chariot needs periodic maintenance. Do you think you can drive your car forever without a periodic oil change, wiper blades and cooling system flush?

  Calm down. You want to maintain your warranty.

  So i guess most who have the IQ of a bread, would be better a president than him.

  @Daniel1555 ....

  What type of bread? I doubt plain white bread, but not up to the standards of whole wheat or sourdough. Definitely a nice baguette would work.

  JW (and other religions) excuses for messing up when trying to understand prophesies.

  by RubaDub in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this is not a jw-bashing thing, but it always seemed odd to me that the "excuse" when things go wrong is that "we have to wait and see how the prophesy is fulfilled" or some other wording.. my question has always been, then what is the purpose of the prophesy if you don't understand it until after the fact?

  isn't that like having a weather forecast but being told that we don't really know what the weather will be until the next day?

  isn't that the purpose of prophesy?.

  The more I look at that picture of Stacy, I bet it was some nitwit Republican kid who just learned PhotoShop and thought thought that it was funny.

  Are You Afraid To Publicity Express Your Opinion?

  by minimus in

  are you reticent to express your opinion when it comes to religion or politics?.

  when we were jws , we had to be so careful that we didn’t stumble anyone.

  are you comfortable saying that you don’t agree with someone or something even if it appears you are in the minority?

  For a while, I was only expressing my public opinions in private. Then for whatever reason, I realized no one seemed to care.

  Yes, for whatever reason it is back. I know for awhile the "thing" was spinning as I was posting. Not intentional here.

  I'm sure some of the intelligent people here can guide me but in all honesty, I never understood that.
