| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1550123  United States12/04/2012 02:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I GUESS THAT I AM CONFUSED AS TO WHY YOU ARE UPSET WITH THESE BUILDINGS Quoting: 7777StarBorn AT LEAST THEY ARE ACKNOWLEDGING THAT PEOPLE ARE HOMELESS IN THEIR COUNTRY DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT . IN THIS COUNTRY WE JUST IGONORE THE HOMELESS AND ACT LIKE THEY ARE NOT THERE. I THINK THAT IT IS UP TO US TO TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN HERE IN THIS COUNTRY....OUR HOMELESS LIVE IN CARDBOARD BOXES OR UNDER BRIDGES, OR IN ALLEYWAYS. I don't think this has to do with creating homes for the homeless but moving undesirables away from others. And the scary part is who decides who is undesirable. Understand? |

NOTHING. SILENCE. this was very upsetting to me and i was just about to post to my fb that i was so upset by the silence i was considering leaving and never coming back. not because of fb but because of my friend's silence. my heart was tearing in two. THIS IS HOW IT HAPPENS. THIS IS HOW THE HOLOCAUST HAPPENS. right then, as if weirdly on queue, there was a knock at my door. which doesn't happen often because i live in the country. guess who it was?? it was JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES! anyone of my friends would have taken this as some sort of cosmic JOKE. i let them in and i told them about the camps being made in amsterdam and i told them to spread the word about this. the universe works in strange ways. and right when they sat down on my couch, the scarf i had tied the windchimes with fell off, and the windchimes starting chiming. so whatever juju they got working for them i say ALRIGHTY. whoever will listen and take ACTION i will work with. if it's jehovah's witnesses then SO BE IT. i am not picky. nothing? Silence? Wow and all in caps. Aw Jeez princess, getting upset because you feel no one is listening to you? Wow. How disgusting as we all know the world revolves around you Fucking hilarious. Keep it up princess. You too could end up on the world comedy festival circuit. Nothing? Silence? Still pissing myself laughing. Thanks for the great laugh It is not that they are not listening to her but are not upset at what is happening. That Hitler could happen all over again and people would be silent if it doesn't affect them. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 29061307  Finland12/04/2012 02:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | when i used to live alone i would sit and pray that Jehovah's witnesses would come by... just so I would have someone to talk to... that sounds pathetic lol but it worked a few times. Quoting: Dr. Acula except i never let em in, im much too paranoid... "what if they are murderers pretending to be Jehovah's Witnesses?" That was my line of thought... but we would sit on the porch and talk. I remember one girl she was really really really cute, she was going door to door alone! I begged and begged her to never do that again! lol we talked for hours and she was so awesome and cute, I almost converted over. lol but... last time i heard from her she is doing good and doesnt do the alone door to door thing anymore :) The universe does work in mysterious ways! Cos it seemed to me that when I was at my loneliest and felt the greatest longing... a JW would show up on my door. and they would give me the conversion speech... but afterwards they actually visited with me and kept me company for a short while. and the creepiest thing is... i havent seen them since i am not lonely anymore... i've heard several stories of JH's showing up when "needed" for one reason or another... and sounds like that be the case here i dont think they are other worldly beings, they are in the flesh like you and I... but I think at times they are instruments of divine interception :) We are people living in Jesus Christ and we are with all lonely people, we want to take care of all those who this world disrespects and make them feel loved and cared  |

He is a demi-god, ask an adept shaman or yogi. Like I said I used to be JW so I know what they believe in, but they claim that they will have the 144,000 chosen ones in their organization which is ridiculous. The 144,000 aren't JW's, they are like capacitors for the Earth so they are people with auras of a mile in radius, lightworkers, and all that electromagnetism will split the multiverse into the New Earth. They believe the world will end, just watch, mark my words it will TRANSFORM, but ONLY if you are in the right multiverse. |

JWs do not believe Jesus is God Follow the Truth, not error. JW's believe that Jesus is God's son like the Bible teaches. And that is it God's son that died for our sins. God did not die. The majority of religions that call themselves Christian follow Constantine who mixed in pagan beliefs with Christian ones at the Council of Nicea and that is where they came up with the Trinity. It is not a first century Christian teaching. And even Jesus calls himself God's son. John 10:36 what about the one whom the Father set apart as his very own and sent into the world? Why then do you accuse me of blasphemy because I said, 'I am God's Son'? |
