a preteen asked me , “did jesus have a dog”?
i thought the question was hysterical.
why wouldn’t jesus have a dog or pet cat or sheep?
If Jesus really was a first century Jewish carpenter, I doubt he would have had a dog.
The Jews of the time considered dogs unclean, didn't they?
Here is an example of the type of dogs which live in Israel and Arab countries …
^^^ Beautiful, isn't he?
we live in strange times, in the middle of a culture war where saying certain opinions have consequences.
<--- so much for free speech.. thank goodness for satire.. https://babylonbee.com/news/nike-factory-graciously-offers-to-house-unaccompanied-migrant-children.
Lol, this meme's some next level sh1t …

hope link works.
The d2d work was abandoned long before the pandemic.
Perhaps because the WTS is a registered charity and knocking on people's doors endangers WT charity status?
Follow the money ...

i love r&b music, funk and soul, even some disco.
i’ve been listening to retro soul radio out of london lately and the music is without commercial interruptions 24 hours a day.
mostly 70s and 80s music.. i love everything from elvis presley to tom jones too.
Although I don't think Paul McCartney's musical output after the Beatles is very impressive, I do like this song …

It's just a good little pop song.

TBH, I like a wide range.
The Beatles, Prince, Chemical Brothers, Blur, Radiohead, U2, The Who …
i know what you’re gonna say---------everyone has a right to believe whatever they want.. but the question above is not about everyone’s right to believe whatever.. the question is very specific------will the world be a better place----without religion.
think for a while what the world would be like without any religion.. no conflicts between islam and christianity.. no conflicts between different sects of christianity.
(example; jehovah’s witnesses vs catholics).
It's difficult to say.
But I think the world would be better off without Islam, WTS, LDS and other cult-like religions. That's what Islam basically is: one giant cult.
since covid, our lives have all been affected.
do you think people will ever get back to normal, pre-covid?
are masks, vaccinations and social distancing the “new normal “?.
The fact that front line health workers, and many more that are seen as more lowly, are in fact the most important people in Society, and should be payed accordingly - front line health staff have had a 1% pay rise at a time when other public sector staff have had a pay freeze, and many private sector staff have lost their jobs. Let's put it in perspective, please.
Minor things, like, working from Home is possible for so many, the daily commute unnecessary - this isn't minor. Many small and big businesses are reliant on the daily commute.
How Capitalism in a largely unregulated form does not work for anyone but the 1% - it's thanks to capitalist profit that the UK has ordered so many vaccine doses, with half of all adults now protected from the disease.
Capitalism is saving lives in the UK, whereas EU ideology is leading to many unnecessary deaths on the continent.
By all means criticise capitalism's faults, but let's praise the good stuff capitalism does for everyone.
i was just reading how a guy on the net was saying he was attracted to some black women like halle berry but serena or gayle king not at all.
he was expressing his opinion.
anyway, he quickly got fired and he profusely apologized for what he said and has asked for help from the naacp and the mayor’s office to learn to do better.
Not on this forum, because it's a good place for free speech and open discussion. Long may it stay that way.
I do check myself slightly on FaceBook because potential employers may check what I post. Although, I have had a few FB posts blocked. <--- Social media giants are attacking free speech, sadly.
please forgive if my english is a bit crooked :-) at least i understand quite well and i thank everyone here in the forum very much!
you were a big help for me within the last months.
i'm a born-in from germany, mid50, was 20 years elder, woke up a few years ago.
I don't know what to think about life after death.
The one life I have that I know is real is right now, as a human being.
I'm trying to live a good life and do my best NOW. I'll find out if life after death is real or nonsense on my death bed, hopefully many years away.
