STATE OF THE 'WORLD' HOW NEAR IS THE END TIMES ?
TrueTomHarley replied to JOHN BUTLER's topic in Jehovah’s Witnesses's Topics
Nor is it comfortable when someone is fixing to touch the pupil of your eye. One can only hope for Friends in High Places. -

Usually Jehovah’s Witnesses can be depended upon to think that world conditions are bad. -

You think so, do you? That they are charismatic? You, know, they’re selling that cool bridge they once lived next to. Act now and they may give it to you cheap. Other extreme action: die rather than accept a blood transfusion? Offset ten thousand times over via their stands on tobacco, alcohol abuse, illicit drugs, and even safety. Not to mention their stature as non-combatants. They are by far the safest religion out there. Extreme? Maybe. But everyone else is more so by any comparable lens. -

Well, people do clean up after their dogs today. That’s a good thing. Gone forever are the days when you as a child might slide through a pile of you-know-what in pursuit of a fly ball. Let me assure younger readers that there is no experience quite like it. -

I shared a post a while back on how exactly that sort of thing is now happening...and who’s to blame for it. https://www.tomsheepandgoats.com/2018/11/the-anti-cultists-are-directly-responsible.html -
God's Approval Versus Being Rich

There! An honest to goodness ‘like’ on my part. I knew it would happen someday. -

Three years ago the expression Fake News was absolutely unheard of. Today it is ubiquitous. Gays took decades to enter into the mainstream. Transgenders took mere months. I wrote in Tom Irregardless and Me that VR porn promises sex so steamy that it is feared persons will lose interest in the real thing. It was half in jest. The reality has become that sex robots will do the trick. Both genders have become so leery of the other & the rapidly changing dynamics, so as to lean into this latest craze. In many quarters, and expect it to increase, you will be identified as a CIS male, that is, a male who identifies with the sex that was assigned to you. Perhaps it will be your grandchildren, in the hands of today's educators, who will tell you this. What is all the rage among the young today? Suicide, upping several-fold in but a few years, by youngsters sending the strongest message they can send that they don't buy the offerings of Hotel World and decide that they can indeed leave. Autism, which once claimed one in a thousand, now claims one in forty. Anxiety has replaced depression as the #1 mental health malady. It cannot be because there is nothing to worry about. Previous generations, wartime aside, have laid down economic rules so as to enable success of their young. This generation eats them. The Church of Satan didn't command much ground until recently. -

Actually, didn’t Trump sing the song? And Obama. And Bush. And Clinton. It’s the perfect line for anyone who wants to get the pundits off his back.- 54 replies

When Bill Gates First Became Rich, How Did He Spend His Money?
TrueTomHarley replied to Money & Finance's topic in Topics
Only a gazillionaire can smile and make it retroactive for his mug shot or pose as though for a Playgirl centerfold. I think Steve the cult expert called him for triggering his BITE model, not yet having learned to distinguish BITE from BYTE. -
When you do either of the two Bible museums, you will at first be discouraged at how everyone bunches up at the first few exhibits. But their eyes are bigger than their stomachs. Four or five exhibits in, they decide they will have to speed up the pace, leaving large gaps and an opportunity to take it all in easily if you do not insist upon doing it it order. We came by way of route 17, an endlessly winding highway. Taking a break at Livingston Manor, we came across this sign, which I photographed because of the name; there was a Motts Applesauce plant near where we live. Is it the spirit of the times to hide religion, or what? I think no way would this fellow describe himself as a “humanitarian.” Look him up. Now, what did you say? Black shoes, mostly black tie. Got it. Should I change my plans and return so soon, I’ll be on the watch.

What in the world would make you think that? With the possible exception of @Anna, who may be a high-ranking brother in drag, I think it is most unlikely that anyone is UNLESS they are malcontents working for the other side. One can never know for sure, because the Internet is the land of the liars. All comments that I have seen, the ones that have stayed on-topic, that is, have been focused on human matters, if not individual rights. I’ve not seen any that have addressed God’s stated insistence on preserving a clean people for his name. -
I’ll do it, but not with confidence. I like your theory. Pay no attention that Paul himself doesn’t mention it. What does he know? It is well known that portions of Back in the USSR satirize the Beach Boys’ California Girls.

It is like when my son-in-law tries to peddle me some bit of nonsense, and I say ‘Jim, Jim, do you REALLY want to challenge your father-in-law about the Beatles?” For I know about them, too. He was trying to tell me that ‘Don’t Bring Me Down’ was included on an album instead of standing alone as a single release. Can you believe that anyone could be so stupid? Those Grammy pictures go right over my head. I have never seen one. Did Paul take refuge in your home after he supposedly died and you pinched one of his Grammys?

Limmy, you have to know the players here. Admin is not a Witness. The Librarian is, but he is certainly not a typical one. Call him avant- garde. Few Witnesses here are typical. This is not Bethel. Apostates, real and imagined, are free to come and go. And JTR would make Rambo blush.- 54 replies

TrueTomHarley replied to TrueTomHarley's topic in Jehovah’s Witnesses's Topics
So what about it, punk? Ya feelin lucky today? I think my next project will be to introduce @JOHN BUTLER to @Jack Ryan and duck out the back door while they get to know one another. "Now TrueTom, knowing that the one part was made up of atheists but the other of malcontents, cried out in the WorldNewsMediaForum: “Men, brothers, I am a believer, a son of believers. Over the hope of the existence of God I am being judged.” Because he said this, a dissension arose between the malcontents and the atheists, and the assembly was split. For the atheists say that there is neither resurrection nor angel nor God, but the malcontents accept them all. So a great uproar broke out, and some of the scribes of the party of the malcontents, though not John Butler, rose and began arguing fiercely, saying: “We find nothing wrong in this man, but if a spirit or an angel spoke to him—.” -
I would get it checked if I were you. About 3850 very strange and nonsensical posts have come out of it.

It's great advice. I like it, so far as it goes. You will consistently be against any restriction on tobacco, alcohol, drug, medicines, safety requirements such as wearing hard hats or buckling seatbelts. Are you? -

Fortunately, no one is slaying anyone with the disfellowshipping arrangement. It has the added benefit of being reversible. Same question to you: “Without such congregational tools of discipline, which do come across as harsh in today’s world, is it possible for a group to keep its core moral values over time? Do you know of any examples?” Because, if not, what we have here is but a veiled attempt of the atheists to stamp out Christianity, under the guise of the protectors of humanity. Christians must follow the direction of the Christ. History demonstrates that they cannot under conditions the anti-cultists would impose upon them. -

I will ask you the same question that I asked the big boy: “Without such congregational tools of discipline, which do come across as harsh in today’s world, is it possible for a group to keep its core moral values over time? Do you know of any examples?” Please do not respond with what “should be.” Respond with what is. Do you know of any examples? -

I actually would like meaningful feedback on this. Without such congregational tools of discipline, which do come across as harsh in today’s world, is it possible for a group to keep its core moral values over time? Do you know of any examples?
