Disi...My 2 cents. Apply the same critical thinking you apply to creationism and you will likely have a similarly sober minded respect for the value of medical science. Reasonable caution is always appropriate but imputing murderous motives to the world's health organizations is something quite different. Myself I defer to trained professionals when it comes to my health.

GB pushed the vax
by Diedsuddenly ini remember during the pandemic the gb updates got progressively stronger pushing the vaccines .
they even had experiences of some who were reluctant to get them and then due to the gb keep saying fully vaccinated these poor jws went out and got all the catch ups shots and even all the boosters.
i remember someone making a compilation video showing all the gb update clips of the gb pushing the clot shots, even tony morris saying the words ‘go get vaccinated’.

Beecher Bethel
by peacefulpete inmost of us are aware the wt original purchase of brooklyn properties were the "plymouth bethel" and henry ward beecher's residence.
i was just sitting here and it occurred to me these should be recognized as historical sites.
beecher's role in american history surrounding the civil war is certainly worthy of recognition and remembrance.

When The SHTF.
by Lost in the fog inwe have several non-jdub friends who are busy stockpiling foods and goods for the impending societal collapse.
some are happy enough to be called preppers, others are not, but say that looking at the deteriorating condition of the world that it's only a matter of time before the shtf and they want to be prepared to protect themselves and their families when it happens.. contrast that to the jdubs who are actively telling people that the end of the world is coming, but aren't preparing in a practical way because they have been brainwashed by a "jehovah has always protected his servants" mindset from the gb at hq (who laughingly have no reason to be concerned because they're hoping for a quick getaway up to heaven when the jw 'end of the world' comes!).
the most the average jdub has is a go-bag rucksack in case they have to quickly leave their house in the event of a natural disaster like a flood or a wildfire.. isn't it better to be safe than sorry?

My wife and I are heading to Paris for Christmas this year. It's a landmark year for all sorts of reasons, milestone anniversary her milestone birthday, and my recovery. She loves ice skating. Has anyone first hand knowledge about ice skating on Eiffel tower? It would seem to be a straightforward question but surprisingly it's not. The official website says nothing, a number of tour sites say yes and one skating website says no.
Apart from that, what would you recommend to see or do in winter there. We are going to the Louvre of course, any favorite places/restaurants etc.???
