China About to Screw Your Life Again
by Simon inchina's economy is wobbling as one of its largest companies, evergrande, is teetering on bankruptcy.. there's a good chance it's collapse will have a knock-on effect on other markets.. so more to thank them for than just the covid virus.. no one should have any dealing with china..

well. china has let the hostages go, has banned bitcoin the super polluting, criminally loved payment vehicle,
hopefully they will keep it up and turn over the infrastructure they have build in the east china sea in the acknowledged economic zones of neighbours like the Philippines, to the locals, as the next step forward in the right direction.
turn the screws to lift.

Why do Men just want to control each other, and have control over you.
by pistolpete init seems like the moment someone attains some type of power, whether it's money, political power, or religious power, their first agenda is ---to control others.. bill gates is a good example of this.
another is george soros and michael bloomberg.
and let's not forget all the politician and religious leaders like the governing body.

everyone rises in a hierarchy, until they reach a level that is too much for them, they are seen as incompetent. the top level of management is therefore incompetent. Real potential top men are eliminated early on, they are danger to the system, see the bible story of Joseph.

Where does the cult fall on sexually touching each other for married couples.
by mickbobcat inso its wrong for married couples to have oral sex and anal but what about touches to arouse?
to climax i would assume it was wrong.
but what if you go too far getting ready for sex and climax, do you need to go to the cult to confess..

even for unmarried couples, 'necking' would have the elders hard pressed to make a disfellowshipping, any action stick. It was full intercourse that was the ultimate sin. arousal, even orgasm before that was in the grey, dont tell dont mind area. in my era.

Earthquake in Victoria Australia
by smiddy3 ini ,along with many other victorians in australia,experienced my first earthquake this morning about 9:15 am.. it was recorded as a 5.9 magnitude.and an after shock of 4.0 magnitude.. i was having a lay in bed due to the fact my wife had a bad night due to her health problems which affected my sleep as well.. and i thought geeeze she`s making a lot of racket coming up the passage to the bedroom with her walker and then the bed started shaking like crazy .
i thought my computer`s going to hit the deck along with the printer as other things started to fall over.. our house sits on concrete stumps and the thought went through me that the house could collapse ,but thankfully there was no structural damage that i could find.. apparently it was felt far and wide covering most of victoria / nsw and even tasmania.. anybody else here had a similar experience ?.

metal earthquake straps that were poured into the concrete and attached to the frame of the house.
PZ: another strategy is to build a strong house and insulate it from the shaking earth by having it float on anti friction pads. many houses were left intact by the quake in Japan, only to be carried out to see in one piece.
metal straps are great on all joints in a wooden house. wood splits and nails pull out.
a good way to be save afterward is to have a camping vehicle stocked with goodies at the ready, it is already on roller bearings.

1995 generation change
by Gorb innow, many years later, i remember the 1995 generation change, very well.. since early youth, hearing my father explaining in field service the 2520 years.
it was his main theme in the field.. with the change my doubts started.
with some jw friends we did not trust the organization anymore.

we restarted from deepest poverty, after special pioneering, after the "superior authority" reboot.
wt had been 100% wrong. and we taught it to unsuspecting innocents.
the wt 1914 generation fiasko is worse, 200% wrong.
it can not extend 160 years to 2075 or never end, and
it can not be the anointed, they will pass away, according to wt, before Armageddon, not after.

wt and the elders dont want any competition.
by waton inthis week's wt study: "dont stir up competition" !
wt leaders and reigning elders have won the often dirty rise to compete for the top.
(no special education required as in bbtg), they now admonish the rank and file: do not rock the boat, do not stir up more competition.

It will require airfare to visit
GT. if you have a month summer vacation, as most great teachers have, take a camper or a van across the land. great sights and sites to see, Niagara, Yellowstone, Grand Canyon, the Redwoods.
Even Yosemite has some respectable walk-in with sky light Sequoias (a highlight of my life with my then 9 year old daughter standing inside a thousand year old living giant) beats Jonah et al.
skip the fake shows, disney and the rollercoasters and drive . it is better to travel than to arrive.
