china daily recently published this overview of poverty in china: reference: http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/china/2014-10/16/content_18755643.htm.
under the general heading of, behind the glamour.. .
.
China wasn't too concerned about their poor when preparing for the Beijing Olympics. Millions of people were thrown out of their homes. Like Western governments, they don't give a **** about the poor. I guess this anti-poverty initiative is good public relations, of course.

nfl commissioner roger goodell placed minnesota viking's player adrian peterson on indefinite suspension for using extreme measures in disciplining his son using a tree branch switch.. sports illustrated covered details about how the process works with the players union, the player, and the nfl.. www.si.com/nfl/2014/11/17/minnesota-vikings-adrian-peterson-suspended.
i remember vivid scenes in kingdom halls and in the homes of jws who used extreme measures to discipline their children.
a father and assistant p.o.
Whether it's about NFL PR or not (I think it is), it's a good thing.
Children are not possessions, and being beaten with a switch is extremely painful. Unlike 'mandatory counselling', this will hit daddy where it hurts. As for hurting the family by his suspension? If he can't coast for a few months, wel, maybe he should take a money-management course. I have no sympathy for people who beat their children/spouses/animals.

and yes, the jws get a door-knocking joke around minute 15, in the pam anderson skit.. it's for tv, so not as edgy as "black white and brown" or his other shows, but for a xmas special, what can you expect?.
ho!
ho!
Aude - oh, you lucky lucky person! That must have been so much fun. :D He's been a favorite of mine for a while, too.
clarity - excellent, and you're welcome. :)
AFRIKANMAN - Great! Enjoy.
It's kinda hokey, but it is, like I said a TV special. The Nativity skit was the best, and if anyone is a Buble fan, of course.
take care, and glad you liked. :))

i've been a lurker for quite some time and enjoy the forum.
i've reached a point in life where i don't argue ideologies anymore so i don't have much to say.
i've been out for decades and believe i've been mostly de-cultabilized (if that's even a word).. my family is still in and i haven't had contact with them in years.
lol, you should quote 22 Minutes..........
"Oh, no, I was only jokin' ........ just Foolin' Around!"

just a message to say that i have not been able to access my proper account for a long time now.
the account is under timothyt.
i go to log in and it just wont let me.
My friend, Rabbit, can't get into his account either.
I think the only solution is to create a new one. It's happened to a few folk. Glitches will happen.

ott wedding anniversary celebrations, what's that all about?.
i don't know about you, but the various congs i have been in there have.
been some seriously over the top wedding anniversaries that border on the obscene.
The skating parties were on a lake, at the 'cottage'/home of a wealthier JW. Every winter, the big blowout, and you'd get to see friends you only normally saw at conventions! We used to rent rinks for hockey as well (they had a JW hockey pickup game every Sunday nite). It was considered good to keep the young people happy with *some* socialization.
Wow, how sad the kids' lives must be now, with even less fun. I can see "youth groups" and "camps" in the future - how else to keep the teens?

why is it that people who display self-righteous hypocritical behaviour are so blind as not to see what kind of people they really are?.
Self-righteousness and piety are qualites that exclude humility. It's impossible to be both. The very fact that they only see themselves as 'good' and 'righteous' blurs their concept of reality. Honest self-examination, for them, is an oxymoron.
