I think this movie was excellent, bloody but excellent, with all the troubles we now face with bloody Imperialism, and hierachy, with the rich getting richer off of the exploitation of the poor, the movie leaves you with a good feeling that people will one day wise up and see the inefficiency of todays governments and by the will of the people things will change an idea who's time has come.
Are not most of todays governments in power because in times past "the people" got fed up of the rich getting richer, exploitation, the innefficiency of governments ..the will of the people will change things.
How many governments round the world are products of revolutions of "the people" against an oppressive, rich, exploiting rulling class. Who in turn are now the "oppressive, rich, exploiting ruling class". Look to the countries of Africa, who got rid of their "Imperialist oppressors" and now run by corrupt governments.
Or the nation that at one time heard these words:
"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.........
and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Has it lived up to them?
Don't worry I can think of some things about Britain as well.
We are being run by a government a "LABOUR" government supposed to be the "peoples party" yet we get taxed on almost everything, Our liberties are eroded each day under the guise of "fighting crime and terrorism".
Throw the wrong item into the wrong bin, and face a fine or prison. Use a moblie phone while driving and in the future you may face two years prison.
Stab someone to death and do community service.
Didn't someone say "That the people get the governments they deserve."

Do you pray for others? Why? (One reason I rejected the Bible)
by AlmostAtheist in
1. jw
2. friends
in addition to the noah's ark nonsense, this idea of praying for others was one that led me away from the bible.

here's how it plays out, in my opinion:.

bob has a problem.. jerry prays about that problem on behalf of bob.. god either:.
aniron

Dave has a problem
1) Some one who cares for Dave and tells Jerry. Jerry goes to help Dave.
2) Jerry sees Dave needs help, even though he has never met or heard of him before.
3) Jerry says “Stuff Dave he's not getting my help."

i'm curios of what the watchtower society thinks about the year 2012. i think they russell should've used the mayan calendar, and not the pyramids.

at least he would have something in common with the rest of the prophets.

Peak Publishers
by IMHO in
1. jw
2. friends
why does the 'society' continue to erroneously collate its 'peak publisher' figures by counting two (or more) reports for the same publisher in a single month?
aniron

I could never understand the thing about "Peak publishers"
In the 2007 report theres about a 3,000 difference between the "average" and "peak" publisher numbers, 122,000 to 125,000 aprrox.
I used to think where do those 3,000 go to?
