The leaders of the JW cult are masters at spin. There is no positive way to spin how Jehovah would let that many JW's die in a horrific accident like this, so the Watchtower will ignore it and any JW's that know about it will soon forget it.

The High Cost Of War
by designs inbritain is refinancing some soverign war bonds dating from the crimean war, napoleonic war and wwi, 2 $billion worth.
2 century old debt.. our president has been reluctant to begin another war when the debt of the previous two wars hangs heavy.
those of the prowar persuasion have insisted on 'boots on the ground' a move that would require 100,000s of personnel in the middle east and allocating billions in debt to cover the cost.. "every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed" president eisenhower.

When Obama's time is up. The Bush family, Jeb will get back in office and start another war.
LOL.....Jeb as Prez not gonna happen.
Huffington Post puts the cost of the current conflict with ISIS at $1.5 Billion per month.
That may be so, but the Obama administration feels it is a necessary conflict.

Also the same dolts that said aluminum, vaccinations, and organ transplants were bad.

Just got back from trick or treating with the kids... Husband is completely, beside himself LIVID. He's going to the elders on me. I've havent been to a meeting in over a year. Not sure if they can or will do anything.
Do you think this is for real, or he is just venting or bluffing? This is really dysfunctional and cultish. Sounds like you are still married. If you are no longer going to JW meetings why do you think he would do this? This is so petty, unless he is an uber-dub that thinks his eternal salvation now depends on his telling the elders his wife committed the sin of taking his children trick or treating. Sounds like you made a stand to not let your children miss out by not adherring to the beliefs of this farce of a religion.
Lot's of good advice here. If he actually does turn you in to the elders, that is a separate issue for you to personally decide how you will handle. For the trick or treating thing....I always like the advice to not acknowledge that the elders have authority over you any longer. If the elders contact you, it shows more than likely something will happen. You could play the 2 witness rule, but we all know that only applies when the cult needs to protect a pedophile that they like. If you thought enough to do it and your hubby turned you in, you might as well face it head on.
If the elders contact you inquiring about this. GET IN A HUFF, and tell them you dare them to contact you over something so petty and ridiculous as little kids having fun. Then, tell them if they want something to check into then they can go check into all the pedophile cases the Watchtower is getting sued over, and why the Governing Body is changing beliefs so much. That will catch them so off-guard....THEN HANG UP. They may be so shocked that they just drop it.
Good luck, and do keep us posted if this develops into something more.

Does The State Have The Right To Quarantine Someone Because They Might Have Ebola?

Anyone who willfully goes to treat Ebola patients and come back to the U.S. should well abide by some recommended medical quarantine. Ebola is not very forgiving if a person were to spread it to innocent others. If the recommended quarantine is 21 days, then so be it. I'm sure she knew she could be subject to some type of quarantine period before she took on this Ebola assignment. This is not a flu strain which could be deadly enough. We are talking Ebola here.

Islam's Psychotic Obsession With Hell
by cofty inevery word this man preaches is official muslim doctrine.. fear of hellfire is central to the life of every muslim.
it is axiomatic that every non-muslim, all kaffir like you and i will spend eternity in hell.. just like roman catholicism and evangelical christianity it is a cult of fear and of death.
unlike christian writers mo was not coy about describing the details of hellfire.. i have just finished reading two autobiographies by ayaan hirsi ali who is a muslim "apostate" and lives under a death threat.

As an American it's actually embarrassing to for people to see this crap and comment on the silliness of it. Same with Duck Dynasty.

I'm all for civil liberties, but I don't want idiots breaking Ebola quarantine just because they think they can do what they please. Ebola can be very deadly if some idiot "thinks" they don't have it and they actually do. Do you want yourself,your kids, or other loved ones possibly exposed to Ebola by stupid people breaking quarantine? People with HIV who willfully infect sexual partners or fail to disclose they are HIV positive face criminal charges.
