Hanging out with Quaid at a Martian beach resort?

Whew!
It seems we both agree, but my explanation is only three words:
BELIEVE NO ONE
(…. easier to remember ….)

?

Could you imagine being re-incarnated as a fire hydrant?

That’s why GB decided in one of his past decisions to have JWs in Mexico give up their “biblical principles and standards” in order to retain material ownership. Matter of Conscience or Hypocrisy? 

Being sued, and losing, is how the Society decided it was OK to take blood if it was fractionated and transfused in 13 separate tubes. 

I found the Norwegian people exceptionally well reasoned people.
….. meanwhile, back in the United States …..

quote from document:
The reasons for the decision
The Religious Society Act sets several conditions for being able to receive state support. In our investigations, we uncovered several violations of the Religious Communities Act.
1.
Right to free withdrawal according to the Religious Communities Act § 2 Persons who voluntarily leave the faith community shall be treated in the same way as excluded members. This means that remaining members, family and friends, will not have contact with the excluded. The preparatory work for the Religious Communities Act § 2 points out that the right to freedom of religion presupposes that withdrawal can take place unconditionally and without obstacles on the part of the religious or philosophical community. By having rules for how the members should relate to excluded members, we found that the religious community prevents withdrawal. We regard the practice as a violation of the Religious Communities Act § 2
2.
Baptized minors may be excluded The exclusionary practice applies not only to adults, but also to baptized minors. This means that children can be excluded if they break the rules of the religious community. We have considered this practice to be a negative social control, and that it therefore violates children's rights. The religious Society itself describes the practice as a "strong form of correction". We consider this a violation of the Religious Communities Act § 6.
3.
Minor members may be exposed to social isolation For other children in the congregation who have not yet been baptized but who are considered “unbaptized publishers,” there is a similar practice of exclusion. If unbaptized publishers violate community rules, they should be deprived of the status of publisher and congregation members should avoid contact with them. We have considered this treatment as negative social control, and in violation of the child's rights. We also regard this as a violation of the Religious Communities Act § 6.

If it wasn’t for Americans, you would be a slave, and the son or daughter of slaves, and if you still had a tongue, be speaking German.

Truths?  Or Insanity?
 
 
 
 

Pudgy, you are the one with nothing, because all the material possesions in this 'world' amount to nothing. The Apostle Paul called it all 'rubbish'.  
BUT you have proven that you NEED material things to give you 'faith' in.  Wow you have a building to go to. Wow you have a GB to worship. Wow you have Elders to serve . Wow you have little carts to pull along and set up, how cute. Wow you are told exactly what to preach, in fact, sometimes told to keep quiet and just hand out the GB's propaganda. Slaves of the GB and you think you have something ????????????? 
BUT you do not have Spiritual Wisdom and you are not Annointed with Holy spirit. 
And that James, is what bugs you and bugs other JWs.  It is so easy to see how JWs are soooooooo jealous of the Anointed ones.  But remember why the days will be cut short. ON ACCOUNT OF THE CHOSEN ONES. Not on account of the Earthly Class. 
And delusions ? Yes James you probably have first hand experience with delusions. 

Yes I know what rice-chritians are, and there are some out there for sure, but not all christian churches are in other countries doing charity for money. So I just want to make sure your not preaching that all christian/ christian churches are in it for the money.

With doing Krav Maga for several years and gone through dis-arming training, fortunatley I have not come into a situation where I need to put my training to real life use.

Thank you.

Please point out the false assumptions so I can possibly re-word my question. I will stand on the the Black Mass memorial, as there is evidence of the jw way of doing this is developed from pagan/satanic history. ..But all that aside.......is a disfellowshipped person allowed to even touch the plate and glass that is passed around the congregation? That is my question. Please stick to the question I asked and try to deflect the conversation.....dogs are so easily distracted.

As you jw's pass the plate and glass from person to person in your black mass memorial, are disfellowshipped ones allowed to touch the plate and glass as well?

I followed the link, above but the information includes WHAT SEEMED TO BE hundreds of institutions involved in one way or another, and I did not have time to figure it out now. I did find an 800 telephone number which I will attempt to use to find out details, later. There is about a 12 hour time difference, and they may only answer the phone (?) during their normal “office hours” (?).

I think you've said it yourself. It's all about the money money money !!!! 
So I presume you don't have a proper Kingdom Hall then ?  Did they sell it to get themselves more money ?   
511 GBP.  x 3 = 1533 GBP.   For just one occasion. Oh dear more donations congregants  
Um, that is a lot of inactive publishers then ..........  BUT the Org says that meeting attendance has gone up since zoom. 
They pretend there are MORE JWs now than before 2020.  
This is all so funny. 

And …. Some T-Rex dinosaurs merely supplemented their diets with meat ….

Why not offer aide to any one, not just jw's?

So to sum up your guys position, jw's will only help jw's, got it. But will give free watchtower studies to a person fleeing a war torn country, got it.
JW's claim they do more to provide charity than anyone else, and refuse to back up that claim...got it.
And again jw's turn to personal attacks, deflection and changing the subject when pressed to provide proof of their claim.
My childhood consisted of broken bones, lots of blood loss, hospitalizations, etc, if jw's enjoy having a little laugh about extreme child abuse....you most definitely have a demonic spirit guiding your thoughts.
I'll leave you all with this then I'll shut up.
Crimes Committed by Jehovah's Witnesses (avoidjw.org)
 

Still waiting for your 3rd party truth. It would be horrifying if each individual denomination would only help their own specific denomination, and much more chaotic. Most of the individual soldiers I believe mostly are Catholic, I am not catholic, they are not adopted into the family of God, neither are jw's. 
When I started a bible study again several years back, my conductor at the time and I discussed 9-11. He made a very strong statement that if there was a natural disaster and if he saw his neighbors house damaged and heard his neighbor screaming for help, he had to ignore the neighbor and do what ever he could to reach an elder and head straight to the kingdom hall. I had a problem with this reasoning and so he told me I would have to agree to this too if I was interested in progressing any further.
Well you guys aren't doing much in stopping war or stopping people from killing others, heck even some of your own brothers have killed innocent people, even pregnant women and children.
Lastly, the jw's are an off shoot of the bible students, which were an off shoot of 7th day Adventist. Even jw's have had different denominations stream from them, so jw's aren't an exclusive group.
Gonna stop with you now, your deflecting the conversation into other subjects.
So again, please provide proof jw's are helping non-jw's and/or working with other religious organizations to provide aide to all.

I don't recall anyone I know attacking jw's any where. Sure Russia did ban the religion, and I Don;t know the religions of the police that did the arresting.
But this I  do know, I was attacked all my young life by devout jw parents, was attacked by the congregation when I was 15, and lately listened to one of your gb said he and all jw's can't wait til Jehovah kills all apostates, snuffs them out like a match.
Can you please provide proof that religious charities are attacking jw refugees at the borders.
