  Another heart-worming story

  by StephaneLaliberte in

  today, i got an email from an old friend with a story told by brother andre ramseyer who attended training at patterson in england.

  a service dog regularly attended the meetings with his owner.

  when the owner passed away, the dog was given to another blind man.

  A North Korean and an American Delegation were meeting in a neutral country for a conference .The two main members of the delegation met to break the ice and share a few drinks together informally.

  After quite a few drinks and some time had passed ,they got on to the differences between the two countries and their attitudes to their leaders .

  The American boasted that he could say anything he wanted to about the President : then he goes into a tirade against President Trump ,and when he finishes ,he says ,see ? there will be no backlash or punishment for him doing so .

  The North Korean delegate said he could do the same thing with no backlash or punishment against him for doing so from his Leader Kim Jon- Un .

  And then he proceeds to go into a tirade against the American President Donald Trump.

  That was classic I just wished they hadn`t shown the first few seconds of what they were doing and if they had of done it in there back yard or in an open park it would have been ever so much better

  But it was truly good.

  Michael Palin: North Korea - Similarities In N.Korean and JW Mentality

  by pale.emperor in

  did anyone catch michael palin's travel documentary in north korea?

  it was a fascinating insight into such a secretive and controlled country.

  totalitarian, suppressed and yet i found a few similarities to jw mentality.. particularly, this segment, where michael asks his handler about the limitations on freedom she has.

  Well you certainly can`t criticise WT LEADERS can you .Oh that`s right they don`t have leaders do they ,everbody`s on the same level in the WT religion .

  A P.O. may have a part on the platform and when he`s finished he will sit down among the rest of the congregation and he doesn`t wear any clothing that distinguishes him from anybody else .

  Their leader was Jesus Christ ? say what ?

  That`s how I was introduced to the "clergy" in 1960.

  Oh that`s right they have a clergy class do they ? Until their in a court of Law that is, and then they cry Clergy Penitent privlidge to not divulge some vital information.

  england, wales, scotland & n.i.

  are independently making or changing the covid 19 lockdown laws/rules to suit themselves... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-52600708.

  garden centres are opening in wales on monday, in england on wednesday, but by the looks of things, are far too dangerous to open them anytime soon in scotland or n.i.

  Here in Australia the Prime Minister outlines a broad outline of what is expected during a stage 3 lockdown for the nation .However each state has a Minister that interprets what is essential for that state under those guidelines .

  Some states have far greater infections than other states and so more stricter control is needed , whereas some states with very few infections or even no infections for days , feel they can ease up on restrictions and ease back a bit more

  I don`t see any problems with the way things are handled here .One size doesn`t fit all .Common sense needs to prevail.

  Jehovah provided zoom?!

  by Tim207 in

  seems like every zoom meeting someone comments how happy they are that jehovah has provided us with this wonderful app called zoom.

  does that mean jehovah knew about covid back in 2011 when zoom was founded?

  why do people thank god for things people create?

  Sounds like Jehovah is playing catch up with Satan,after all ,they wouldn`t need Zoom if Satan`s organization hadn`t

  1, Shut down the "life saving D2D Witnessing " of Jehovah`s Witnesses .

  2, Shut down any Assembly/Convention programs

  3,Shut down meeting attendance at kingdom halls

  Etc,Etc,Etc.

  Sounds to me loke its a win win win for Satan and his organization against Jesus sitting on his throne ?

  i don't know if anyone remembers me on here but i'm here to do an update again.. well, i'm 15 going on 16 soon i still remember watching my first video on youtube and learning that all the jw teachings are false and everything that follows.

  crazy times, i have chosen to just focus on school and just trying to be a kid well a teen now but you get the point.

  i'm not really mad about all the jw stuff i've come to accept that i couldn't have done anything to prevent it i was born into a family that was already into the religion.

  Good for you AKID48 .Well you certainly have set yourself a task on a lot of reading .I think cofty here could give you some good advice on what to read first regarding the evolution topics taking in your age etc.

  As far as C.O.C or 1984 ,before reading those if I could make a suggestion I would reccomend "Captives of A Concept" by Don Cameron download by LULU if memory serves me correct I think its brilliant.

  I wish you well on your journey through life ,to wake up about TTATT at your age Theirs no telling what you can accomplish

  brothers and sisters associated with the watchtower society may 9, 2020. i have tried to inform you of the necessary adjustments you ought to take in order to truly be in the truth.

  but my efforts have remained fruitless.

  you well know the biblical procedure.

  today is the 75th anniversary of the end of wii in europe.

  they were a special generation who were literally prepared to give their lives rather than submit to fascism.

  millions paid the ultimate price.

  Lettice Curtis was the best British female pilot of the Second World War. The first to fly a four-engined Avro Lancaster bomber, she was the most skilled of only 11 women who ever passed the test to do so, and the longest-serving of the 168 who plied Britain's wartime skies as members of the Air Transport Auxiliary.Aug 11, 2014

  That photo reminded me of these brave young women .
