what’s your opinion of sports teams postponing games either to recognize or protest a social issue cause?

?.

''What’s your opinion of sports teams postponing games either to recognize or protest a social issue cause?''

There was a sporting boycott of South Africa during the apartheid era.

And a boycott of the Moscow Olympics 1980 after the Soviet/Afghan war by many nations

and a retaliatory one of the 1984 LA Olympics by mainly Eastern bloc nations.

It does seem to happen.

One part of me thinks that sports occasions should rise above political differences but I can also see why some would not want to carry on as if nothing had happened.

Jesus Believed In Adam and Eve

by Parker in

i'm new to the forum.

i'm an ex-jw who actually faded from jws.

i'm here to drop by every once in a while to ask a question or two.

ThomasCovenant

''I would say that the bottom line for fundamentalist Christian belief is that Jesus believed that Adam and Eve were real and historical people.''

Hence, I don't believe Jesus knew as much as people think he did.

Just wanting confirmation on an unofficial JW experience

by joe134cd in

just wondering if anyone can confirm or deny this unofficial jw experience that my father received by email.

i’ve told him that it against wt rules to forward unofficial accounts.

but of course he just puts that down to apostate driven lies.

ThomasCovenant

Whether or not these 'fine witness' accounts are true or not, did the person being 'fine witnessed' to become a Jehovah's Witness after?

No. Therefore, they will still be killed at Armageddon.

How Did You Discover This Site?

i’ve been here a long time.

i saw this site jwd/jwn.

i thought it was very lively and interesting.

''Shaun's site''

Yes that rings a bell now too. Think it was Shaun's Research or something like that.

Is it http://www.jwfiles.com/ now?

I then found the 'Quotes' website that I think got taken down by the Wathctower.

That was the one that did it for me, to convince me it was not the Truth that I had been led to believe it was but always doubted.

Then this forum.

Economic Recovery after COVID-19

by Simon in

it feels like we've really turned a corner, this morning especially.. the covid lockdowns are ending and medical systems were not overwhelmed plus there are existing treatments that have been proven to be effective (like hydroxychloroquine) and new vaccines and medicines in the pipeline.

a week or so ago the dems were dead against opening things up but since they are encouraging protests (which often turn violent) they can't continue that stance - thus proving trumps claim that it will soon be gone.

the majority of the deaths were politician-assisted (which i hope people are prosecuted for) so it's not the big risk we were led to believe and (over) reacted to.. the bls reported this morning that the us economy just added a huge number of jobs (most on record) and will undoubtedly benefit even more from a drive to source local production and supply chains going forwards.
