  Yea anyone who thinks theres a snowballs chance in hell of getting rid of lett proves only that they knowing about the org. If they dump a gb member it would be admitting he wasnt selected by HS. Never. Ever. Happen. Not just because hes a buffon. They knew that when they appointed him.

  The Case for Theism

  by FusionTheism in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "theism" here means "belief in a god" or "the worldview that an intelligent designer created the universe and life.

  " ("god" here means a being with a mind who initiated and/or wound-up the universe, and designed life on earth)the most common claim that i see atheists making on twitter, is that "no evidence" exists in support of belief in a god.this post will remove any excuse atheists have for claiming "no evidence exists" in support of an initiator.

  atheists can still reject this evidence as "weak," but they cannot truthfully say it does not exist.now, it is true that we do not have "observable, repeatable, falsifiable, empirical, scientific" evidence conclusively proving that an initiator exists, but we do have many lines of philisophical, experiential, and logical evidence.and... here... we... go:1:) many leading scientists, including stephen hawking, say that the space-time-matter universe had a beginning at the singularity/big bang.

  Lol now we are trying to arguing over the definision of athiest.... As someone without a belief in a sky daddy i quote john lenon:

  "i dont believe in beatles i believe in me"

  define it how you want, use whatever word you want, the end result is the same.

  If shunning was a conscience matter?

  what do you think the reaction would be?

  i would say a small portion (single digit) would walk.

  no loss for the borg, they weren't donating anyway.

  You are not the first to ask this question. My view is the org would crumble in 5 years. The minute shunning is no longer policy 25 percent of the org leaves. People like me who are faking it anyway. After that organizational control falls apart. People start realizing they can do as they as please and what they please isnt likely to be what the wt org wants. Field Serve us falls off rapidly for most. Before long people feel free to question and the flood gates open from one to another.

  The org will absolutely positivly never ever ever end shunning. Cults never up control. The second they do, they are no longer cults

  by Powermetal4ever in

  what would happen if i would write a physical letter to, for example, the branch office.

  and ask questions about scandals like the ngo thing and other stuff?

  or ask questions about wtbs economy, or ask for a annual report, which is something i would really like to read.

  so today i was asked my thoughts on the pool party incident in mcminney, texas.

  my response: it shows a clash of expectations.

  i saw police officers who expected citizens to listen to and follow instructions.

  Sigh.... No, not all sidewalks are "private property". Some, however, are community property. You arnt trespassing walking on them if you are memeber of the commuity or a guest of someone in the community.

  Also, to correct my mistaken co-poster, im focusing on that particular point because its exactly how the community in question is set up. Its also a direct rebuttal to your claim that "no law was broken". Indeed they were broken. The police responded to the call as required. Had that disrespectful young lady walked away and addressed whatever wrong she felt had been done in the proper forum it would have been resolved without her being man handled.

  to my co-poster( clearly you seem to think you speak for me) paul... You clearly know nothing about this forums politics. I am a peoples rights small government gun toting america first libertarian guy. Simon is a brittish big government anti gun liberal guy. The only two things we agree on are TTATT and this. Ive never meet simon and likely never will, given the geographic constraints. its his forum and i respect the rules as he sets them.... But his view, marvins view anybodys view means diddly to me.

  Nice try setting up a strawman to discount the obviousness of the truth: they were breaking the law. They could have just walked away and laughed. They were stupid and paid a small price for a valuable lesson.

  Your doing a fine job making yourself look like an idiot. you also clearly dont understand how communities are structured in the USA. No land is "public" in a community. Land is owned by specific people (in the case of houses) or by the community in the case of so called "common areas". That land is governed by tenants all agree to and sign when moving into the community. They were both trespassing and disturbing the peace.
