this is the kind of government you are supporting.. over 100 gay men have been sent to concentration camps for homosexuals in chechnya and three people have been killed.. stop supporting fascism.. if you support the russia jw ban, what other thoughts and beliefs are you ok with policing?.
if you support the jw russia ban, have you read george orwell's 1984?
don't you realize you are advocating for literal fascism when you support the banning of a belief system?
I couldn't care less what happens to JWs, they bring most of this on themselves by being obstinate.
That being said, I do not like the ban because at a certain point, who gets to decide what is allowed and what isn't. It's great as long as they ban all the stuff I don't like. Not so much when they start banning stuff I like.
People should be free to believe what they want, even if it is a stupid, family wrecking cult. Just like I am free to believe it is a stupid, family wrecking cult.
it's been brought to my attention that there are xjw that say they support the witnesses and don't think russia should ban them.
i would just like to remind all of you that jws are guilty of murder, causing higher rates of suicide, covering up child molestation, and keeping members in prisoned because if they leave they loose family, financial support, possible employment etc.. sure their not strapping bombs to their chests but they easily get members to kill themselves with their blood policies.
they are an extremist group!
Yeah- the Enron employees got in just as much trouble as Enron the company, so where do you draw the line?
I think banning a religion is wrong. But I don't feel Witnesses are not responsible for their own actions. They can choose to act however they want, and most of them choose to act badly.
pesident trump authorized the missile strike because “it is in the vital, national security interest of the united states to prevent and deter the use of deadly chemical weapons.” .
59 tomahawk missiles were launched from two us navy ships.. russia has condemned the action.. https://youtu.be/4svp3yfneyq.

I am torn between, we should mind our own business, and do we have a responsibility to defend those who cannot defend themselves.
Do we mind our own business until they bring it to our doorstep? Or do we let Syria know we are not going to tolerate this type of behavior?

what can we make of this?
rice is on record being a racist and lying about benghazi, now this?
I am a republican who is pro-choice, pro- gay rights, and pro equal opportunity for everyone. There are many republicans I know who are in the same boat. We don't want to control other people's lives, but we can't support the liberal agenda because it is out of control.
Not all Republicans are far right. There are a lot of middle right republicans, they just don't make the news.........
why the big controversy over baptizing the dead, they are dead folks..i know it's a quirky practice but jewish leaders are up in arms because the lds leaders are baptizing holocaust victims..what harm is it??
?hell jw's are preaching everyone will go up in flames no one believe that crap except jw but no one is up in arms, they know they walk a different step....the lds leaders agreed to halt baptisms specifically of jews holocaust victims in 2010 but they are at it again, baptizing jews.
this is funny as hell to me.
I have actually known about that practice and thought the same as you - it's funny as hell. Why would you baptize dead people who were not inclined to join your religion when they were alive? Especially people who were horribly tormented because of their faith ( not LDS).
The LDS have a whole other level of crazy going on. Even if I am dead I might be upset if I became Mormon. 😀
we were all told when we were in the watchtower that we should be grateful to be part of such a loving family.
we were told that just beyond the superficial glamour of the world was a quagmire of despair, emptiness and pain waiting to suck us in.
obviously, we took that part with a mountain of salt or we wouldn't be here today.
Yes I have found my place. I am happy. I think you need to broaden your horizons, if everyone you know is a drug addict and has no ambition. Finding commonality with people doesnt mean you have to agree on everything or believe exactly the same thing. Get involved in your community. I volunteered at the animal shelter, did Habitat for Humanity, Soroptomist, and other groups. I also joined rec league sports. I went to college. So many "worldly" people have shown kindness throughout my journey.
apparently jehalapeno isn't a 2nd amendment supporter either.... .
july 17 questions from readers.... the way this part is worded screams cult to me, i was quite amused.. how a christian chooses to protect himself, his family, or his possessions is, of course, largely a personal matter, as is his choice of employment.. geee!
thanks watchtower for allowing me to "largely chose my own employment" you are a generous cult lol.
I thought the leopard print was too over the top 😜

is it true, as bro jackson testified to the australian royal commission, that people can leave the religion freely?.
in my own case, yes.
i just stopped going and was never announced as ''no longer one of jw's''.
I moved thousands of miles away, so was mostly left alone. 2 of my relatives, didn't move, and were stalked and harassed and DF even though they hadn't been to meetings in years. Moving is always best if you can.
i never got into trouble with the elders.
i served on judicial committees too many times.
i am happy that i no longer have to "judge" whether someone is a "sinner" any longer!
Nope, never. Model JW, got advice from my elder father, tell them it is none of their business.
