RED HERRING
by biblexaminer inif you have the inclination, call the number and ask ..."is russia banning "reading the bible, singing and praying with fellow worshippers"??.
can you say red herring?.
maybe they should add "feeding your children is clearly not criminal, neither is helping an old woman cross the street".

"Overlapping Generation" is a "Spiritual Generation" - a letter to the governing body
by jwleaks in11 march 2017. dear governing body of jehovah's witnesses,.

by Zaccheus ini was awakened this morning by our barking dogs at the front door, and thought the worst.
fortunately, no door-knocking delusional hippies in ties, just neighbors telling us a bird was caught in our garage.
