may 18, 2021. a deis hearing will be held may 26; public comments period ends june 21. by tina traster.
the town of ramapo will be accepting public comment on the proposed new world headquarters of jehovah’s witnesses audio/video production center now that the deis (draft environmental impact statement) is complete.
"The 1.7 million square-foot project, known as the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, is slated for 155 Sterling Mine Road in largely Sloatsburg and partly in Tuxedo in Orange County. Of the 249 acres, 242 are located in Ramapo; the balance is in Tuxedo. The Tuxedo portion of land will be used for secondary driveway access."
So is the property in Sloatsburg and Tuxedo or Ramapo and Tuxedo?
gaslighting is a form of sustained manipulation that causes the victim to question or doubt their sanity, judgment and memories.
it’s a form of emotional abuse.
i think jehovah’s witnesses have been gaslit.
My ex-wife had me gaslit. She literally had me believing that it was ALL my fault.
i was talking to an ex-jw.
not been out as long as i have.. cut a long story short, i came to realise that i can no longer be bothered to debate jws if (on the rare occasion), i have encountered them.. i think that because i am somewhere circling a nihilistic atheist it seems pointless.
i just don't have the energy because i rarely even think about jw related garbage.
Nice to hear from you again, punkofnice.
Most J-Dubs don't want to debate because they can't.

Honestly, 100k over a 3 year period is not that impressive.
while we are talking about economic stimulus i thought i’d bring up the $15 minimum wage.
pros and cons?.
It sounds like a good idea on paper, but then we would have to worry about inflation. To more than double the minimum wage at once would be disastrous IMO.
With that being said, I wouldn't necessarily be opposed to a MAXIMUM wage. There are way too many billionaires out there.
i am a balding man.
mid 40s.
i just shave it really close so it’s looks like a choice.
Jeff Bezos is worth 113B and he's bald. Jus sayin!
let me explain what i mean: i was in the company of a workmate when i looked at my hands and my arms and pointed out the veins and said something like look at that, isn`it amazing how veins and arteriies circulate the blood through our bodies ?.
he later explained to me he wasn`t sure what he should say to me as we had been working together for about six years and he had never once brought up about his jw background .he was what we would call a weak witness and he considered me a street kid who swore and drank too much.
i was twenty years old at the time.. i can`t remember the actual conversations that transpired ,but thats what started me down the road to becoming a witness and then convincing my gf to join me and about two years later we were married in a kh.. can you point to any one thing or conversation that started you down the road to becoming a witness?.
Born in, but I won't die in.
i think cops are getting a bum rap.
are there some cops who shouldn’t be cops?
are some over eager?
I don't feel bad for anyone who voluntarily chooses a certain profession and then the going gets rough. If you can't handle it, find something else to do.
i saw a statistic the other day that something like 25% of all the debt that the us has incurred since 1776 was created in the last 12 months.
that's because they have printed so much currency and instead of letting that stop them, they are going to continue printing more to go on a spending spree on crazy green-new-deal schemes and union handouts.. does anyone think that this can be anything other than inflationary?
they are effectively stealing the wealth of everyone to then hand money out to people.
Since the Federal Reserve was created in 1913, the American dollar has lost at least 98% of its value. Coincidence?
obviously at some point you stopped believing the witnesses had the truth or else you wouldn’t be here.
.
but for the most part, were you a true believer or were you typically a rebel or a doubter?
I'm not sure that I really believed EVERYTHING, but in general, I thought it was the truth. I ignored many red flags for years, until the "overlapping generations".
