I got my Memorial invitation today but I just couldn't
by Tenacious insome days ago i posted on another thread that if i ever did get a memorial invitation i would ask for more to give to friends and family but in reality i was going to use it as toilet paper.
the old lady was just too nice.. i honestly thought she was selling something but nope lo and behold she was a jw giving out memorial invitations.. as soon as i opened the door she hand it to me all the while saying i was invited as well as anyone else in my home to this "very special event" which was the celebration of christ's death.. so i played the role.
i looked over the invitation like a curious first timer and as i flipped to read the back i paused, looked up at her and said surprisingly "oh, you are those ... um, .... witnesses, jehovah's witnesses!

Review: revised Elder's manual, part 3
by neat blue dog injudicial committees are famous for having 3 elders on board, but more can also be had:.
complex cases may warrant having four or even five experienced elders on the committee.. an interesting admission is the possibility of being harsh in judgment, and even insinuates that the elders would pay with their lives if the wrongly judged 'lost their spirituality':.
an individual unjustly dealt with may have difficulty maintaining his spirituality.-matt.

*sigh* The Extinction Rebellion ... middle class toss at its finest
by LoveUniHateExams inso, a bunch of eco-geeko middle class people are desperately trying to be au courant, bringing london to a standstill in order to 'save the planet'.. apparently, there's even a crèche, with entertainers entertaining the protesters' well-nourished and pampered offspring.
i guess many of the protesters - sorry, saviours of planet earth - couldn't get a nanny to look after little benedict and olivia.. today is the fourth day in a row this crap has been going on.. hopefully there will be more arrests in the coming hours and days.

What's the point?
by Incognigo Montoya init has always baffled me, if earth and it's inhabitants, are god's sole sentient creation (aside from the angel's and demons) along with the animal life, why create such a vast galaxy, along with billions of other galaxies, with their trillions of stars and planets, etc.
what's the point?
our galaxy surely would've been enough, in a great void of blackness.

Should illegal immigrants be sent “Only” to Sanctuary Cities?
by I believe in overlapping inpro-illegal immigration advocates are fighting president trump’s efforts to keep illegal immigrants out of the united states.
trump wants immigrants to enter the usa legally and in a controlled manner so as not to tax the local economies of their resources that will burden the local law abiding citizens.
“pro illegal immigrant’s advocates insist that illegal immigrants are overwhelmingly good people fleeing bad circumstances in poverty-stricken, gang-ridden or war-torn countries.

Can you be disfellowshipped for getting abducted by Dogman / Bigfoot / Aliens?
by John_Carter_1912 inin episode 213 of "dogman encounters" jehovah's witness valerie grogan tells accounts of her, her mother, and her brother coming in contact with the dogman.. for those of you that don't know, the dogman is a werewolf-type humanoid creature.
there are about 7 different types of them and vic cundiff has over 243 episodes of long interviews with people that have been in contact with them.. around the 4:45 mark, she says that her mother kept telling the elders that the creatures was out there but that the elders kept saying their whole family was demon-possessed and that they would disfellowship them.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6ncvszwzue.
