  truth

  by Sabin in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i`ve been thinking, a thread was put up about a month ago asking the question " why me?

  basically why some of us find out ttatt while others are so blinded, good, sincere people that we love.

  well after some consideration i have come to the conclusion that 1) some are in the truth 2) others want truth.

  Some good thoughts were made in this thread on the subject.

  America Mass Shooting: 10/1/2015

  by adjusted knowledge in

  since this will be the norm in america, perhaps we should put a date on each of these topics.

  can't really put school mass shooting because too many to choose from.

  I'm in a tough spot on this issue. While I agree with a person's right to own a gun (I own one too), I acknowledge that beer-bellied rednecks and hot-headed idiots bent on saving Amurr'ca with religion, guns and the Republican party are the types of people who (mostly) go buy these deadly tools.

  That scares the $#!* out of me.

  I have a gun and a licence to open carry. But the only time I carry my gun out of the house is when I go hiking in the mountains. I do that so that I can make sure I never slip to second place on the food chain. There have been several reports of bear attacks in the area I like to explore and, well... I think second place would suck.

  I agree there should be a much higher bar set for gun ownership in this country. To many yahoos with pick-ups are slinging guns around with reckless abandon.

  Perhaps a list of the most prominent media outlets in various countries should begin to be developed. In addition to whatever congregation(s) each person chooses to send to, another half dozen (at least) should be directed toward the media.

  To simplify the targeting of media, I wonder if a greater impact would result if we focused on major news agencies headquartered in New York.

  On the flip side of that idea, other countries do seem to be more sensitive to religious issues than the U.S.. Greater minds should weigh in.

  We only have a limited number of letters. We have to find a way to get the most bang for our buck.

  Template to dump Special Pioneers

  by avaddohn94 in

  "downsizing" has reached special pioneers.. this is the template mexico is using to get rid of many of its special pioneers.

  see how cold and unloving is the language they use.

  a translation attempt is as follows:.

  I didn't read all the posts in the last 5 pages so if this has been covered I apologize.

  When special pioneers are sent out, I assume HQ buys them a plane ticket and gets them set up. If that is so, HOW IN THE HELL can they simply write these people a cut-off notice (with a couple more months of "allowance") and just leave them to rot.

  Do they not have ANY sort of obligation to bring these people home - be it from Mexico or ANYWHERE ELSE???

  If you're thinking of a logo I could see a graphics designer playing with the 'ss' and stylising these as 8's.

  
  

  We we could have a picture of happy ex-JWs skipping about With fruit baskets in the foreground, with a view of Watchtoer HQ burning in the background and regular pioneers with late model 4-door sedans falling into a cravass.

  Had you thought of feeling sorry for the G.B?

  by The Rebel in

  2. friends

  i only bring this to the board, because a friend of mine once said he felt sorry for the footballers who made so much money.

  that comment stayed with me, and over the years,the more i thought about that comment the more i agreed with him.. i admit the g.b destroy people's life's and are the sublimation of all that's good in people's life.

  there only excuse is a fantazy asylum they claim to believe in.

  I also like Island Man's suggestion about including the reason for the necessity of anonymity but it needs to be VERY condensed.

  While we can send to ANY media outlet, unless a single national news agency gets inundated by hundreds of letters it will have ZERO impact.

  An isolated letter here and there to a local news agency will fall on deaf (and confused) ears. No problem sending to these local agencies, but we should arrange to send a mass mailing to a dozen or so NATIONAL, BIG NAME newsies. I think it would have an additional impact if, for example, CNN or The New York Post in the United States also received letters from Europeans, Africans, South Americans, etc... in addition to North Americans . And vice-versa.
