Now that the cop was exonerated in the St. Louis shooting, the city braces for a third night of protests. A solution is needed. Here is one written last year.
"In the course of their job, police shoot hundreds of people per year. How should one report this? Put all shootings on TV. All of them. Run them 24/7 in the order in which they occur. Create a dedicated channel: The Shooting Channel. Make it freely available. Give every network a cut so no one will complain about ratings. Promote ‘The Shooting Channel’ heavily. Ban shootings on any other channel.
Put white-on-black shootings on. Put black-on-white shootings on. Put black-on-black shootings on. Put white-on-white shootings on. Put Hispanic-on-Methodist shootings on. Put Buddhist-on-nudist shootings on. Put redneck Alabama white-on transgendered Vietnamese shootings on. Put them all on. Let viewers decide for themselves which shootings are significant and which are yawners. Otherwise, the newspeople will cherry-pick their favorites and start a race war."
What were there - about 5 or 6 highly hyped shootings that summer? They culminated with another shooter taking out several Dallas police officers, so much had rage been stoked. Did not the news media suddenly switch to 'love-in with police' mode to atone for their very different mode just before? 
Two of the shootings were not intentional white on black shootings at all, though they were both hyped that way. There was the black man shot in Florida. He was not the target. He was caretaker for an autistic white man with a toy gun that fooled the cop - the cop got spooked and missed his target. The other was the white cop in Charlottesville whose actions triggered several days of violence. Turned out he was not a white cop at all but a black cop. Both incidents were initially reported as 'white cop shoots black victim' and hyped as proof the police were racist. Neither correction was more than a buried footnote when the facts came to light. Why does the media do this? Not for me to say. But 'The Shooting Channel' will solve it.
The italicized words are from 'No Fake News but Plenty of Hogwash,' an ebook that is not exactly flying off the shelf as it ought but I hope to remedy that here. The solution proposed would never come about, but only for monetary reasons. Insofar as public information can cool rage before it begins, it is the answer. Perhaps ALL police shootings should result in community outrage - that is for others to decide. Perhaps there IS racism within the police, but is not demonstrated by highlighting just a hand-selected few shooting incidents. When a study was made of the Philadelphia Police force, released in 2015, it showed blacks were more likely, not less, to be shot by a black or Hispanic officer than a white one, as the former were more likely to experience 'threat misperception.'

RUSSIA UPDATE.. JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES APPEAL TO THE PRESIDIUM OF THE SUPREME COURT OF RUSSIA AGAINST DECLARING THEM AS AN "EXTREMIST ORGANIZATION" 
Lawyers of Jehovah's Witnesses filed a supervisory complaint against the decision of the Supreme Court to liquidate and ban all 396 registered religious organizations of Jehovah's Witnesses in Russia. The complaint is scheduled for consideration by the Presidium of the Supreme Court of Russia within 3 months.
Believers are asked to completely abolish the decision of the Supreme Court of April 20, 2017 and suspend its execution until the end of the proceedings in the court of the supervisory instance.
The decision of the Supreme Court of Russia, unjustifiably attributed to the "extremists" whole religion, has already resulted in the most negative consequences for believers in the form of dismissals, waves of religious hatred, attacks, police raids, criminal cases and imprisonment of innocent people.
https://jw-russia.org/news/17091115-214.html
The international community unanimously condemned this decision of the court. https://jw-russia.org/news/17090417-212.html

The Amazing Male Mouthbrooding Jawfish — such as the mottled (seen in the fourth photo with spikes on the side of its head from a fireworm attack), the yellowhead, the banded, and the cardinalfish seen here — use their mouths to protect their eggs until the fry hatch. 
Mouthbrooding fish are able to produce smaller numbers of offspring with a higher chance of survival than species that offer no broodcare. the males, however, are not able to eat during this period of incubation (which can last anywhere from one to three weeks), but will open their mouths, spitting the eggs out and then sucking them back in to keep them clean and aerated. 
Wonderful Creation of Jehovah God!

If Jesus Is God, Then...
1) Why did he say "the father has granted him life"(John 5:26)
2) Why did he say "nor have I come for my own initiative, no, but that one that sent me"? (John 8:42; 1 John 4:9)
3) Why did Jesus say he did not know the day or the time of great tribulation, but only the father? (Matthew 24:36)
4) Whom did Jesus pray to?(Matthew 27:46)
5) To whom did Jesus enter "in heaven himself, to appear now in front of the person of God in favor of us"? (Hebrews  9:24)
6) Why Jesus said "the father is greater  than I am"? (John 14:28)
7) Who spoke from heaven in Jesus baptism saying "this is my son"? (Matthew 3:17)
8) Who raised Jesus to a higher position? (Philippians 2:9, 10)
9) How can Jesus be a "Mediator between God and men"? (1 Tim. 2:5)
10) Why the Apostle Paul says "God is the head of Christ"? (1 cor. 11:3)
11) Why did Jesus say that " he delivers the kingdom to his God " and " the son himself will also be subject to the one who held him all things "? (1 cor 15:24, 28)
12) Who was he referring to when he said  "I am ascending to my father... and  to my God "? (John 20:17)
13) How would he sit at the right hand of God? (Psalm 109:1; HEB. 10:12, 13)
14) Why did the apostle John says "to God no one has ever seen him"? (John 1:18)
15) Why didn't people die when they saw Jesus? (Exodus 20:30)
16) How could Jesus be dead and still God stay alive? (Acts 2:24)
17) Why did he need someone who could save him? (HEB. 5:7)
18) Who was Jesus referring to at Proverbs 8:22-31?
19) Why did Jesus say "all power has been given to me in heaven and earth"? who gave him that power? (Matthew 28:18; Daniel 7:13, 14)
20) Who did he offer "supplications and also petitions, with strong outcry" to? (HEB. 5:7)
21) Why was he referred to as "God's son who learned obedience  and be perfect"?  (HEB. 5:8, 9)
22) How could an angel strengthen him if he was God? (Luke 22:43; Matthew 4:11)
23) Why did satan try to tempt him if he knew Jesus / God? (Matthew 4:1-11)
24) When Jesus was sent to earth, it was made "a little lower than angels" (HEB. 2:7) how could any part of the deity be inferior to angels?
25) If Jesus was the same God, against whom satan tempted him to rebel? Can God be tempted to rebel against himself? (Matthew 4:1)
26) Before the end of his earthly life, Jesus cried: "my God, my God, why have you forsaken me"? (Matthew 24:46) can God abandon or forget himself?
27) Hebrews 5:8 says that Jesus learned obedience. Why did he have to learn obedience, if he was God?
28) God's righteousness is perfect (Exodus 21:23-25). The Ransom price for a perfect human is a perfect man. The life of an imperfect man would not be enough to pay the ransom (Psalm 48:8). If Jesus was God, it was not then the price paid too high? 
(29)Why was he seeking to please God? (John 5:30)
(30)Why did he say only God can be called "good"? (Mark 10:18)
(31)In Matthew 6:9 Jesus said
"Our Father, which art in Heaven"..  
Why did he not pray, Our Father, which art standing right here 
(32)James 1:13: "When tempted, no one should say, God is tempting me. For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt any anyone.. 
Since Jesus was tempted why did he say God cannot be tempted?

Jesus—“The Bread of Life”
He explains: “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will not get hungry at all, and whoever exercises faith in me will never get thirsty at all. But as I said to you, you have even seen me and yet do not believe. . . . I have come down from heaven to do, not my own will, but the will of him who sent me. This is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose none out of all those whom he has given me, but that I should resurrect them on the last day. For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who recognizes the Son and exercises faith in him should have everlasting life.”—John 6:35-40.
?????
It is written in the Prophets: ‘They will all be taught by Jehovah.’ Everyone who has listened to the Father and has learned comes to me. Not that any man has seen the Father, except the one who is from God; this one has seen the Father. Most truly I say to you, whoever believes has everlasting life.”—John 6:43-47; Isaiah 54:13.

Christians thus have a basis for hope and abundant proof that through the resurrected Jesus Christ and by means of God’s Kingdom, obedient mankind will receive, not merely temporary treatment of disease, but permanent release from sin, disease, and death traceable to Adam. For this all praise is due Jehovah, identified by David as the one “who is healing all your maladies.”
?????
(Psalm 41:1-4) . . .Happy is anyone acting with consideration toward the lowly one; In the day of calamity Jehovah will provide escape for him.  2 Jehovah himself will guard him and preserve him alive. He will be pronounced happy in the earth; And you cannot possibly give him over to the soul of his enemies.  3 Jehovah himself will sustain him upon a divan of illness; All his bed you will certainly change during his sickness.  4 As for me, I said: “O Jehovah, show me favor.. . .

(Ecclesiastes 6:1-2) . . .There exists a calamity that I have seen under the sun, and it is frequent among mankind: 2 a man to whom the [true] God gives riches and material possessions and glory and who, for his soul, is in no need of anything that he shows himself longing for, and yet the [true] God does not enable him to eat from it, although a mere foreigner may eat it. This is vanity and it is a bad sickness.
?????
(Matthew 25:39-40) . . .When did we see you sick or in prison and go to you?’ 40 And in reply the king will say to them, ‘Truly I say to YOU, To the extent that YOU did it to one of the least of these my brothers, YOU did it to me. . .(Exodus 15:26) . . .And he went on to say: “If you will strictly listen to the voice of Jehovah your God and will do what is right in his eyes and will indeed give ear to his commandments and keep all his regulations, I shall put none of the maladies upon you that I put upon the Egyptians; because I am Jehovah who is healing you.”
?????
(Isaiah 35:5-6) . . .At that time the eyes of the blind ones will be opened, and the very ears of the deaf ones will be unstopped. 6 At that time the lame one will climb up just as a stag does, and the tongue of the speechless one will cry out in gladness. For in the wilderness waters will have burst out, and torrents in the desert plain.
?????
(Matthew 8:14-17) . . .And Jesus, on coming into Peter’s house, saw his mother-in-law lying down and sick with fever. 15 So he touched her hand, and the fever left her, and she got up and began ministering to him. 16 But after it became evening, people brought him many demon-possessed persons; and he expelled the spirits with a word, and he cured all who were faring badly; 17 that there might be fulfilled what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying: “He himself took our sicknesses and carried our diseases.”
?????
(Psalm 103:1-3) 103 Bless Jehovah, O my soul, Even everything within me, his holy name.  2 Bless Jehovah, O my soul, And do not forget all his doings,  3 Him who is forgiving all your error, Who is healing all your maladies,

(Revelation 21:1-5) 21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the sea is no more. 2 I saw also the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” 5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true. . ."

This is what the "assembly hall/kingdom hall" looks like on Google Maps.
Here's a link to the Google Maps listing. I've never seen a kingdom hall with a Facebook Page either. I also noticed there is an image of peculiar private rooms on their FB page.
If this is true, it is very concerning to me. I do not agree with our organization using a masonic/illuminati symbol and would like an explanation.

In a foreign language group I know of the sisters are used to read the Watchtower, control the sound equipment etc because there are not enough qualified brothers.
I don't see why sisters should not be more extensively used in a standard congregation setting as long as it does not involve teaching from the platform, (yes I am a brother).

YES! I think it's wonderful! I hope this becomes common. I've noticed a lot of women are doing roles like passing out literature now.

Good women are a Blessing to others and Jehovah God.

What are your thoughts? ??

 

Rules that the American Catholic sect is giving to their parishioners to get rid of Jehovah's witnesses.
Would you be able to rebut these almost military standards?
________________________________
Interaction with a Jehovah's witness
Answer the door. This may seem counter-intuitive to get rid of someone, but the fact is, if you don't answer the door, it's likely to mark you as "no house" and come back in the near future. If you really want to get rid of them, you'll have to answer the door and let them know.
Interrupt. Sounds rude, but it doesn't have to be. It is likely to deepen your command sequence and it will only be more difficult to get a word Polly interrupt to take control of the conversation.
When a Jehovah's witness begins to speak, interrupt with an educated gesture: "excuse me" to draw your attention.
Try to raise your hand and keep it between the two at the chest level with the palm of your hand to the other person and start your interjection with "wait".
If you wait until the Jehovah's witness asks a question, you can simply reply with: "I would rather not have this conversation".
Be honest. If you make up a reason not to want to talk to them, you can see this as an invitation to come back another time. This also starts a conversation.
Be honest and direct with your answer to get your point through and avoid one of your starters of the conversation.
Avoid making excuses. They are trained to respond to specific protests and may consider coming back in the future if they are too busy right now.
We politely. Choose very few words to reject your invitation to speak. It's unnecessary to be rude, and arguing will only stimulate the conversation. A simple and polite decline will do the trick.
Once I get a chance to talk, try a simple, "No, thank you".
It can also be direct saying, " I'm not interested, thank you."
Close the door. Don't hit him in the face, but I understand you've been trained to keep the conversation. Once I have rejected, close the door gently. This is important, because, like the caretakers or any lawyer, they are not likely to accept the first, "no" and will do everything possible to return to you.
Closing the door may be the only way to end the conversation.
If this feels rude to you, try to say, "I'm sorry" when you close the door.
