  What is Racially Derogatory Language

  here is australia the race commissioner has claimed senator o'sullivan is in violation of racially derogatory language.

  senator sullivan has said the biggest threat to biosecurity is ' some bloody old chinaman that brings in his favourite sausage down the front of his undies' chin tan said using the word chinaman is offensive.

  makes you wonder is englishman or australian man or scotsman is also just as offensive.

  https://youtu.be/rkens1c7fsg many sda church members unions and conferences are having issues with their general conference which has set up five compliance committees to regulate church entities.

  some of the areas the general conference are concerned about are the ordination of women and the general wants to stop more women from being ordained also their are issues with church doctrine homosexuality.

  this video is in response to a fight back by a large majority of members 40% wanted womens ordination.

  Ahmadiyya Muslim Remembrance Day

  today i met with my friends and attended remembrance day with the ahmadiyya muslims.

  the ahmadiyya are not terrorists, they don't believe in killing those that leave their religion,they fly the australian flag and respecter laws.. there was seven of us in total including 1 atheist , three anglicans one a priest , one minister from my former church adventist, and of course two wives that had to sit up the back [just joking].. the ahmadiyya are persecuted in pakistan because they are not considered proper muslims many come to the west as refugees and i believe this is one group we can trust and live with as neighbours.

  does anyone have an opinion or contact with this group please share..

  “a declaration of war” — pastor geoff patterson examines the unity document the ordination of women in the sda church is a hot topic at this time with most unions in favour and the third world divisions not in favour.

  this is turning into a declaration of war with the general conference in session in battle creek michigan.

  i just went to a pre screening of this movie about an adventist guy who didn't want to kill but joined the army as a medic on the front line.

  desmond doss saved 75 men in one operation singlehanded on the island of okinawa where desmond worked lowering men down a 400ft cliff to safety.. i thought this may be of interest to jws because of the pacifist stand they also have.. the movie comes out on the 4 th november..
