today while i was having my groceries checked out, a lovely woman came up next to me in the line.. i glanced over at her... her face screamed "i'm a pain in the ass!
" she was obese and frumpy, and (i know maybe i'm projecting a little too much here...) she seemed to exude a sense of superiority, like, "i'm too good to be around these losers.".
i paid for my food and made a point of being especially nice to the checker because i figured her next person was going to be unpleasant.. as i was gathering my things, the checker asked this lovely woman, "is plastic ok?
The other side of it may have been a lady who was encouraged to wear the lapel and her best defense was to be extra extra. Like when they wanted us to wear our badges from the assembly when you went to dinner. Awkward. I smiled like a fool. Self conscious and trying to look like a good JW - cause I felt like everyone was looking at me.
Have yet to see it in person. Actually hope never to see it.
youngs kids can go behind their parents' and guardians' backs - and against their wishes - and get this vaccine!.
aren't children so lucky nowadays to be able to dismiss their parents' authority and guidance!
remember the puppies in george orwell's animal farm?
Remember the puppies in George Orwell's Animal Farm? Sheesh!
What about the puppies? In the story, they were taken from their mom and raised to be vicious by the pigs. Who then used them to keep the other animals in line or even kill them.
Are you saying, that if they get vaccinations they will become vicious, turn on their parents or ??? If you ever saw what small pox did to people and how many it killed - would you be one of the one's refusing to take the vaccination? At least these children might be spared a deadly disease.
"if you were summoned to court for jury service, how do you think the judge would react if you stated your refusal to listen to the prosecution's evidence - because someone outside had already assured you that the accused was innocent?
" .
Juries are given specific instructions about what they can or cannot use in the case. In the process of selecting a juror on a case I was conscripted for, a lady said to the Judge that she knew the defendant. She was called into chambers because the judge wanted to ascertain if she could be impartial. When they came out, the judge said she had found that the potential juror could be impartial. Of course that didn't mean a thing because the lawyer kicked her out of the case the next round.
So judge or lawyer would have kicked them out. Probably the judge, would have chastised them.
jws don't say, "i am a jehovah's witness.".
instead, they say, "i am one of jehovah's witnesses.".
what does the second way of saying it convey that the first does not?.
I am one of them.. I am one of a multitude. To me it makes it a defined group.
what you will not be told at the door bythe jehovah’s witnesses.
the jehovah’s witness (or watchtower bible and tract society) have made the followingpredictions which appear in their own literature:.
1. that jesus would return by 1874. when jesus failed to appear, the witnesses claimedthat it was an unseen, spiritual return.
From when I was a child, the teaching about when the anointed were going to heaven, went back and forth - between some being on the earth when the tribulation started, to all being gone etc.
When I finally did read the bible in detail about Daniel's prophecies, combined with Revelation, you can easily find the answer. 1 Cor 15:52 Paul says that at "the last trumpet" they will be changed and will be incorruptible. Last trumpet in Revelation is the seventh trumpet. According to WT, their conventions held in Ohio (if I remember correctly) were the seven trumpet blasts. Guess they have already "changed" and didn't know it.
if you haven't seen it already, skip to 1:14:30 in lloyds video and watch the craziness unfold.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2y7f7-k5wo.
i'd love to hear everyone's thoughts on this.. they're digging themselves a great hole here, in about 30 years time they'll be claiming this video was a mere "speculation" and that "some people" got the wrong ideas..
I guess they figure it's safe to start throwing shade at the UN again. They had to tame it down while they had their "library card" but now that some time has passed, it's down with the UN!
in the movie "roma," a man is shown making some martial type moves with a sword totally naked.
and the scene is not so brief, giving a clear glimpse of his private parts.
it is a very graphic scene.
Although this is kind of random - my mom used to call the dog's penis - a "pee stick"
the witnesses knocked on my door yesterday.
a married couple, 70's probably, and introduced themselves by giving their first names and stating that they were jehovah's witnesses.. it's 5+ years since we left our old address and moved a few hundred yards away.
no-one visited us back then.
Answering "do you mind if I don't?", is a very different answer than they are used to. No thanks, I already go to a church, I hate JW's, etc is probably more common.
Hahaha, it required them to answer. Did they say "Oh no we don't mind" ? That would mean that their preaching work is not life saving. "Well they are free of charge - we do this as a volunteer to promote bible reading etc." That might be a typical comeback.
please watch.
we need your help.. https://youtu.be/xmcekwjtbi8.
One of the comments below the vid had an excellent point. In order for an elder to legally marry someone, they have to have a licence by the state.
Here is part of their post:
i used a public washroom in a grocery store.
in the stall, someone left a tract on the baby changer.
my first thought was to trash it, instead i wrote cult on it and jwfacts.com on it.
Just do not have a pocketful of additional stickers on you when you go into the store, right?
Hahahaha right.
