How Do You Feel About Trump's Tuff Talk To Korea To Make Korea Behave?

by Brokeback Watchtower in

i know or think i know that trump is bluffing and acting very bully like with threats of unleashing his power as commander and chief a military with super weapons.

but why bluff with such boyish stupidity?

i think mr trumps barginings skills are at an all time low and so the threats of violence and retaliation for misbehaving according to the whims of a narcissist.. my confidence in him is at an all time low, talk about cave man club you over the head approach to problems this guy takes the cake.

“The charge of high crimes and misdemeanors covers allegations of misconduct peculiar to officials, such as perjury of oath, abuse of authority, bribery, intimidation, misuse of assets, failure to supervise, dereliction of duty, unbecoming conduct, and refusal to obey a lawful order.”

just as an fyi

“I think the senate have enough to get his removal from office for complete incompetence in running the country and threatening violence undiscribable.”

I would encourage you to look up the phrase “high crimes and misdemeanors” as that is the standard for the house of representatives to bring articles of impeachment.

“For God so love the world …

by deegee in

... that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him shall not be destroyed but have everlasting life” (john 3:16).. it just occurred to me that if parents were to follow this scripture, they would put their children to death if their children don’t obey/agree with them.

.

_Morpheus

Im not sure i see the correlation between god offering his son as a sacrifice and humans killing their children for disobeying... ?

In the end god says he will kill all who dont believe so there a similarity but theres no instruction for others to do so.... however if you want to make that point just step back to the hebrew scriptures and the nasty blood thirsty son of a bitch several times advocates killing your kids if they disobey you or blaspheme him. You really just used the wrong scripture.

Woe boy.... well, let me take a crack at this from, as your thread tittle indicated, my own limited pov...

“I know or think I know that Trump is bluffing and acting very bully like with threats of unleashing his power as commander and chief a military with super weapons. But why bluff with such boyish stupidity? “

Well you admitted that you dont really know the current prez intentions, be they bluff or not. But why describe it as “bully like”... ? The united states didnt start this saber rattling affair. North korea has been going at this for more than 20 years. They never really stopped after the korean war. Hardely trump being a bully speaking out on americas defense.

“I think mr Trumps barginings skills are at an all time low and so the threats of violence and retaliation for misbehaving according to the whims of a narcissist.”

on that we somewhat agree. There were more effective ways to address and phrase his feelings and i wouldnt kick at every barking dog. However north korea has taken some really significant steps on a very threatening nuke program. Something needed to be said and, pardon the reference, lines drawn.

“My confidence in him is at an all time low, talk about cave man club you over the head approach to problems this guy takes the cake. “

Again, nuke programs and icbm’s to carry them are a very serious issue to international community. If this were some internal conflict id feel differently but this is quiet literally world sercurity.

“Take away the button to blow up the world from this guy,,, quick the world is in danger from an egomaniac in a panic mode with mental incompetence for a job way above his intellectual level.”

sigh... so your ok with kim having nukes, his finger on the button, but trump is where you draw the line..? You have seen an iq test that in some way quantified his intellectual level? Hyperbole is all well and good but its hard to take it seriously in this matter when you offered nothing but “feelings” of fear. Its a tough situation and i wish the previous 3 administrations had resolved it instead of making it worse but this is where we are and what we have to deal with. Until trump does something irrational on this i dont see the point in running around frantically.

Watchtower rips off Disney

by BluesBrother in

jw
friends

no doubt this point has been made before but i see no harm in emphasising it.

my family heard on the grapevine that "the society" had people who used to animate for disney.

well , if that is true , it certainly shows.

_Morpheus

Uhm.... i hate to douse this thread but moana came out in 2016. Caleb and sofia were well before that....

however it does highlight something worth noting. Animators have long been immitating mammals distinct features when newborn. Large round eyes are one of those characteristics and it promites feelings of maternal or paternal care in adults and feelings of friendship in children. Its become very common for animators to use those exaggerated features as a subtle que to make the characters appear more friendly. The “world” has been doing it large scale for 15 or 20 years, its no supprise the wt is using the technique as well.

My live as video gamer and JW

by ironsnake656 in

one of my strangest things that happened to me during my life as jw was that i loved (and still i do) video games.

i started playing super mario bros in a nintendo entertainment system (nes) from my cousin and from there i developed an attachment to the video games.

i remember that i asked for a gift the nes to my dad and my wish come true!

_Morpheus

Dlc and season passes are plauge, a way to take the cost a game from 60$ to 120$.... it feels very dishonest to me and i stopped supporting that nonense

New Instructions?

by FedUpJW in

i may have missed it, but i just heard from a local elder that there are "new" instructions for how the two one day assembly's are to be conducted and handled......fifty-nine pages worth.

he said they will now all be put on the same as the regional conventions.

did i miss that letter/orders from "mother"?

_Morpheus

In a surprise to me, Im somewhat interested in this nonevent. If there are changes id expect wifi to have them in hand soon enough. My half ass guess would be a move toward videos so that the message at all conventions would be universal and less room for individual variation. It seemed that was the theme at the small part of the district convention err excuse me regional convention i saw. Nothing earth shattering but a steady march toward futher homogenization

So, would we call the GB our Uncles, Aunts, Sisters or Cousins???

by stuckinarut2 in

ok, so try and follow me here.... according to jw doctrinal teachings, the gb are "christ's brothers".

humans are all "god's children".

so does that make the gb our "uncles"?.

_Morpheus

“Master” is the word your looking for
