Judging by the expressions on the faces around her, she is bloody awful !
I mean the lady behind her is in tears ..of pain and the granny next to her is thinking..."lawdy I feel like poking her in the eye ..!"

The GB teaches witnesses to be disobediant and dishonest
by stuckinarut2 ini was just thinking that it seems like the gb teaches witnesses to be dishonest and disobediant...and encourages a kind of "secret agent" mystique about such conduct.
a boldness to act this way.. they use "theocratic warfare" tactics by saying we can be dishonest with authorities if we are acting by "gods standards..".. they teach parents to do the same with their kids...teach them to outrightly disobey laws "if they contravene the gb standards" (eg flag salute, voting in politics etc...).
it is ok to lie about "future fairy tale paradise".

Not obeying the AUTHORITIES in everything does have merit in the human scheme of things - eg Thanks to the Protestant break-aways who stood firm on principles when being persecuted in Europe. [Louis XIV et al]
I went to military prison for refusing to join the army back in 1974 and that decision was a good one - South Africa was fighting a "bullshit" war in Angola which was just an excuse to get fingers on Angola's oil - that decision spared me possible injury or loss of life.
So disobeying civil authority under certain circumstances has its place in my reckoning. Its about Principles
I still will not Salute Flags sing anthems and the like because essentially governmental systems don't merit this - so standing firm on Principles has its place in our lives.
By the same token I will not give allegiance to any grouping of men in the religious context either.

What a day in Durbs Louise !
Were you able to move around the city easily ?
My family living reported being in a kinda lock down.
This is just sick stuff. God help us if it escalates to the other cities - shades of 2008 all over again!
Louise - people are being taken out because they are succeeding in their endeavors and the local "brotherhood" does not like that - Tall Poppy Syndrome. Locals are too lazy and useless to get off their Asses - Looting is so much easier isnt it.
On top of it we are on Load Shedding 3B in my area tonight so we went off at 06h00 - 08h30 and go out in 2 hours time again ! Although I should be asleep by then anyway.
Ons vir Jou .........................!
