  Yup he’s a nasty piece of work alright, and always has been. I sometimes wonder if he realises what a nasty person he is and revels in it, or if he genuinely thinks he’s a good guy. It’s hard to step inside the mind of someone who behaves as he does to work out what is going on. He seems to be completely impervious to the most obvious and straightforward criticism: such as it’s wrong to steal someone else’s copyrighted book, or to out people on Facebook resulting in them being shunned by their family, or to attempt to coerce your spouse to accept infidelity. Whatever he does he seems to have some sort of justification that black is really white. What’s strange is that it comes so effortlessly to him, as if he really does believe it.

  I’ve heard it said that “nobody is the villain of their own story” which I guess is an accurate assessment of how humans operate psychologically. Nevertheless some people must have minds working overdrive to avoid seeing Darth Vader staring back at them in the mirror.

  following from the convention attendance thread i looked back on my notes to see the memorial attendances over the pandemic.

  this is what i found.

  i don’t have any pre-pandemic attendances but i’d estimate them around 80 to 90 or so in recent years.

  First fully Zoom memorial in 2020 early in the lockdown had 72 in attendance

  The second fully Zoom memorial in 2021 had 70 in attendance

  First hybrid Zoom/KH memorial in 2022 had 51 in the KH and 38 on Zoom - 89 in total

  Second hydride Zoom/KH memorial in 2023 had 89 in the KH and 17 on Zoom - 106 in total

  Make of that what you will.

  PROOF Mormons have the truth

  by neat blue dog in

  daniel prophesied that god would “set up a kingdom” that would “never be destroyed” and would “stand for ever” (daniel 2:44).

  in making this prophecy, he spoke of the church of jesus christ of latter-day saints... and it will continue to progress until it has “filled the whole earth”... hundreds of thousands of people are baptized every year.

  the book of mormon is being translated in many languages.

  The number of Mormon congregations in Scotland has declined from 41 to 36 over the past 10 years and some of the remaining congregations have been downgraded from wards to branches.

  I wonder if it’s a hard song to sing?

  … because it’s awfully hard to listen to. 😜

  Might be a specific reference to 14,000, but my guess is it’s just random nonsense. Aggressive atheism is so 2008. He’s stuck in Ditchkins time warp that was probably never terribly applicable in Croatia anyway. Somebody tried to pay him a compliment at the end of the video by requesting the chorus again and his response was petulant, “what, just the chorus?” If that was rent-a-friend Tibor, it’s probably indicative of the egg shells he always walking on.

  elder friend of mine texted me asking what my rc attendance was 2 weeks ago (family and i streamed it since wife is not well).

  he told me that his rc in the jersey city assembly hall last weekend was low.

  co told them that around 2600 were the total from 16+ congs that were assigned.

  There were always lots of people walking around talking rather than sitting down listening to the programme. Attendants carried signs back and forward saying “session in progress” or something like that, as if people didn’t know. A few were mothers pushing prams, or people borrowing prams to push, but most not feeling the need to use a prop as an excuse for missing the talks.

  If it was part of a plan then why use him in talks up to the last minute? Why not sideline him gradually? It looks like a sudden departure because of a recent incident to me, even if alcoholism is a long-standing problem.

  Yeah it’s a wonder to behold. He thinks that anyone expressing a different view from his is an infringement of his free speech - so they better just shut up. Wow. And he is giddy with excitement at the thought of others backing down and apologising to him. From the very start he attempts to enlist others to his side of the “debate” to isolate his opponents. Childish doesn’t begin to describe it.

  He attempted to pull rank on the basis of nothing other than his ego, and a weird pretension that somehow he realised the significance of the so-called prophetic conventions that others “missed”. Yet when Old Goat pulled rank on LE on the basis that his memory of the religion went back to the 1930s, LE sniffily declared age and experience are irrelevant.

  In fact he just as good as implied that him spotting some flags in a photo was going to bring down Watchtower, and that he was blazing a new trail where older apostates had failed.

  If these were just videos that were in the pipeline before AM3 was axed then they won’t contain anything extraordinary except by serendipity, will they? There’s no suggestion there is a connection between the content of the videos and the reason for AM3’s removal.

  I reckon AM3 should set up his own channel. Would be fun.

  Being free to love is kinda hard to do when you're forced into the sex trafficking industry because men like Lloyd will always ensure that industry exists. Fucking hypocritical ass hat.

  Absolutely, he displays a pathological inability to appreciate that anybody matters other than himself.

  Other people being harmed is neither here nor there, what matters is if you’ve insulted his inflated sense of himself.
