Members will frequently post links to articles that may have popped up on their news feed and it doesn't mean they have intentionally visited right or left websites. News items related to my Google searches will pop up on my Google news feed all the time.  

 

If you happen to be more familiar with a website that doesn't present information accurately, then we appreciate you stating that the site may not be trustworthy.

KON is in action. Not long left now for its end I guess.

Comments are awful, spouting nonsense that we are not Christian because we don't believe in the (un)holy trinity. I love how they list scriptures out of context to support it... and ignore literally every other scripture that states clearly in literal word for word, that Jesus is 'not' God (and there are "a lot" of scriptures, lol). Drives me nuts.

Fox News carried the story pointing out the protest lodged by the administration's State Department.

 

Sentences of 2.5 - 3.5 years.

Last week, our COBE said there are efforts underway in Russia to make new laws to enable the authorities to remove minor children from JW families .

 

This has prompted some to leave the country, an option discussed in the Watchtower Study.

That would be my deciding factor. If children I’d leave. If not I’d stay.
