Business class for Governing Body

by Sergey Antonov in

jw
friends

hello everyone!

does anyone have any confirmation that the governing body uses the business class for its flights?.

also interesting is the information about the hours that were on the hand of one of the members of the governing body..

_Morpheus

This has already been discussed in detail, including some asinine statements that business class is better than first class. It is not. It is a class of seating between coach and first class.

Of course they fly business class. Do you think they would fly coach? They are heads of a mid size corporation. As rub pointed out, with all the miles they fly, it would be insane to think otherwise.

As for “the hours on their hands”, i have no idea whats that about. Any details you could share would be helpful in formulating a response

ECHR Rules Against Free Speech

by cofty in

the european court of human rights ruled against an austrian woman who claimed calling the prophet muhammad a pedophile was protected by free speech.

... the woman in 2009 held two seminars entitled "basic information on islam," during which she likened muhammad's marriage to a six-year-old girl, aisha, to pedophilia.. the marriage according to islamic tradition was consummated when aisha was nine and muhammad was around 50. aisha was the daughter of muhammad's best friend and the first caliph, abu bakr.. the court cited the austrian women stating during the seminar that muhammad "liked to do it with children" and "... a 56-year-old and a six-year-old?

... what do we call it, if it is not pedophilia?".

your answer didnt add up for me cofty, but i had to think back a little. Its so called “hate speech” laws that im thinking of, but in the end, its the same result. Those laws are being used to sue and/or imprison people who speak ill of ‘the prophet’.

Followers of jesus, while obnoxious at times, dont seem to seek such protection so im not sure why you referenced that particular fellow in your answer. In fact, followers of jesus are not offered such protections so, upon further review, im even more confused as to your reference...

Lol no they were nazis, of course, but britain and eruope in general seem far too accommodating to the followers of mohamed. I failed to note that it was austria. I saw ECHR and instantly thought britain. My fault for skimming.

On a related note, i recall Britain having similar anti defamation laws, correct? Wouldnt this ruling uphold those laws?

I've Never seen anything quite like this interview

by TerryWalstrom in

this interview had me glued in place because i've never seen a q&a go quite like this.i'd love to hear your thoughts on it.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kxpgfekem_s&t=973s

_Morpheus

I tell ya what i thought was interestong from the break was the young man he was interviewing. He demonstrated many hallmarks that witnesses shows woth regard to indoctrination. In the end the interviewer lead him back around and tried to connect dots for him on contradictory viewpoints, and it was a interesting listen start to finish, but that initial exchange with his description of his “calling” and early preaching was a crazy listen.

List of ALL Rape Quotes from the Watchtower!

awake!, july 8th 1980 issue, pages 5-6:.

resisting rapists.

Given that this thread is 16 years old and contains quotes more than 45 years old, i decided to check the current quotes in the elders txt book. They are as follows

The real problem is not whether or they require or advise a woman to scream in a rape situation( thats not been the case for sometime). The most signifigant problem, from my point of view, is that its not their damn business. They are a church, not a police force. If a woman was raped by a stranger the only words required are “im so sorry sister, do you want me to be with you when you call the police?” If she makes the claim regarding an acquaintance or someone she knows more personally (which is often the case), the correct response is “im so sorry sister, do you want me to be with you when you call the police?” They are neither empowered nor qualified to deal with the situation. Stay the hell out of it.

The case of Jamal Khashoggi

by LoveUniHateExams in

just been catching up on the case of jamal khashoggi.. khashoggi was a saudi journalist who 'went missing' on 2 october after visiting the saudi consulate in istanbul.. he visited the consulate in order to get paperwork that confirmed he was divorced from his ex-wife and free to marry his turkish fiancée.. the details that are emerging are harrowing and show just how barbaric the saudi regime is.. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6288131/jamal-khashoggis-apparent-murder-follows-disappearance-three-exiled-royal-princes.html.

these assassins are the kinda people my government (uk) and other western governments are doing business with, propping up, and acting all smiley with in front of the cameras.. i suddenly feel the need to take a shower ....

_Morpheus

Lol trust? Why would you have ever trusted him in the first place? Why would you “trust” any world leader?

This whole situation highlights the seeming naiveté that people operate under. The saudis have killed others in the short time since this came to light. So have the iranians. And the turks. And on and on.

This guy is getting notice because the wapost is making it an issue. They like the mb. They paid this guy to advocate for the mb.
