I believe an abortion is acceptable up until viability. After that I have no problem with restrictions. This is like arguing trinity or no trinity, god or no god. Everyone has their mind made up. This is not a decision rules by the popular opinion of the people. It was done using tricks to get certain people into SCOTUS. There are flip sides to every coin and one day the will of the majority will prevail.

Roe vs Wade Overturned by US Supreme Court!
by Simon ini know there was a leak a few weeks back, but this really does seem to have come out of the blue.. the anomaly was the original decision.
it clearly had no basis in law or the constitution, and was a flimsy, ridiculous ruling.
plus the whole thing was based on a fraudulent case in the first place.. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-61928898.

Different interpretations then on if it is murder or not. Ultimately just more imposing one’s own view on others.

Why do people who believe abortion is wrong want to impose that on other people? If you don’t believe in them, don’t get one. None of them were losing sleep over abortions happening. None of them had a moment in their life impacted by an abortion happening. The whole argument that is being championed that it leaves it up to the individual states is hogwash. The people saying this KNOW and HOPE it is the first step to getting it banned in every state.

“This generation will by no means pass away.”
by Fisherman infor argument sake let’s assume that this verse should apply to 1914. what are your thoughts on generation?.

I don't believe that this generations applies to 1914 at all. I once did of course like many here, but then I decided to learn why we witnesses kept saying how close the end was and it never was. I do anticipate that the Watchtower will change the significance of 1914 some day in the future and make it the "beginning of the pangs of distress". That way the "last days" could be moved again and be a future time.

Are You Concerned About Inflation?
by Simon ini saw a statistic the other day that something like 25% of all the debt that the us has incurred since 1776 was created in the last 12 months.
that's because they have printed so much currency and instead of letting that stop them, they are going to continue printing more to go on a spending spree on crazy green-new-deal schemes and union handouts.. does anyone think that this can be anything other than inflationary?
they are effectively stealing the wealth of everyone to then hand money out to people.

@Simon you stated the only solution was a default, war or both. What does a war do for the economic problems we have? Genuine question, I don't understand how that helps.

What changes are on the way?
by insearchoftruth ini was listening to the co talk to my wife’s congregation on sunday and pretty much the complete talk was justifying doctrinal and organizational changes and pretty much preparing the ‘rank and file’ for upcoming changes.
anyone on hear have any insight of what ‘new light’ is coming in the future?.

@scholar
I think most people here know your belief when it comes to 607. I am curious as to what you would do IF the governing body ever did change their stance on 607 to 586/587. How would you react to something like that? I don't think they will, but curious how you would navigate that doctrinal shift.

A group of 136 countries set a minimum global tax rate of 15% for big corporations
by Disillusioned JW ina group of 136 countries set a minimum global tax rate of 15% for big corporations.
that is a major goal accomplished by the biden administration.
seehttps://www.wsj.com/articles/countries-agree-to-global-deal-to-curb-tax-avoidance-11633709979 .. if corresponding legislation gets passed into law in the usa it will be much harder for corporations doing business in the usa to move their operations out of the usa to avoid paying their fair share of taxes.

@hoser
That was more tongue in cheek than anything. I’ve been yelling to people around me that we are going to cause inflation by our Covid response in the US while they were so happy to get a stimulus check. No one cares then. It’s happening now and will continue to get worse. We have zero interest in eliminating our government debt because no one wants the austerity measures to do it. A long slow decline for all fiat currency.

Why do we act like Taxing big corporations and the rich are the fix to our economic problems? We create money out of thin air all of the time. We have a debt ceiling fight so that the government can create more money out of thin air when it reaches the limit. We raise the debt ceiling because the government will never try to pay down the debt. Why pay taxes at all. We should just keep creating money out of thin air to pay for everything until the whole System fails since that’s where we are headed anyway.

AOL chat rooms when I didn’t block apostates in there. Eventually looked at freeminds.org, my heart was pounding.
