Abaddon
I'm going to make this my last lengthy reply to you. I think you are being obstinate and take no regard of what non-whites have to say about their portrayal in the most important film industry.
Everything is hunky-dory now is it. Of course modern movies too. I mentioned The English Patient as an example. I almost fell off my seat when that scene was shown.
I have no problem with some film portrayals of non-whites I've already stated that clearly.
True, but when you keep banging at it you start to see a pattern, it is racist pattern. You said that old western were bad compared to today. Is that the best description you could come up with. They were racist against the Natives because the natives were always portrayed as savages - only a dead ingeon is a good ingeon.
That's what I've saying all along. Goodmorning
True, for the nth time the problem is when it is overdone.
Hollywood mate.
Good question. Showing constant portrayals sympathethic to Gobel's world view would be totally unacceptable to those that run Hollywood. They'ed cut their throats before they did that. However hollywood doesn't find it unacceptable to portaying their own racist views of Blacks, NA, Hispanics and now muslims at a constant predictable rate.
So you can portray white cops like that, but if you do it with a black cop it is racist? Hmmmm... that attitude is arguably in itself is racist! "
Most certainly not. It's your logic you need to check.
Absolutely you are right but at the expense of the reputation and constant bad mouthing of these groups.
No chance.
I wouldn't have expected a different outcome.
Very simple. Don't over do it. Think type caste then apply that to whole groups. What leads to type casting on an individual actor Abaddon. Yes that's right it's the constant portrayal of an actor in a particular type of role. Good actors hate it when that happens, guess what so do these groups we've talked about. Murderers rapist, savages, drugs lords, junkies.
I don't think so. I was talking about Tarzan. Angaoowa!
You also, without anything more than your say-so, are accusing Hollywood Directors and Producers of a concerted campaign of portraying black people in a negative light. Great conspiracy theory - as asked for earlier, please put some meat on the bones and give actual examples. "
The minority takes offense, believe it. I've still to meet a black person and now good muslim friends of mine that hasn't taken offense from racist hollywood.
Abaddon your living in cuckoo land.
My, my. A racist industry run predominantly by Jews and I'm the racist. A group of people that guard the reputation of their own like there is no tomorrow but have no qualms about bad mouthing others more or less since it's inception.
Anti-semetic charges are water off a ducks back for me. It's cheap. I call things the way I see them.
Anyway Abaddon I like to concentrate on that reply to the evolution thread. Hope you are still talking to me.

Under74,
I've been living with different women for the last 7 years always platonically. I can tell you women don't think like men do. Women do have a different nature to men in certain aspects and one off those happens to involve how to deal with sex. -

Under74,
If I understand your question correctly then the answer is both. In most women nature compels them to be less promiscuous add a layer of strict culture and you get certain outcomes. -

"Sorry, but I'm not just sick of the BS I was brought up with in the JWs, I'm sick of seeing girls in general US society told they don't have the sexual impulses males do or if they do they should reject them or unlike their brothers shouldn't act on them...and if they do act on them they're whores."
Women that place more importance on fidelity and relationships are generally not that eager to jump into bed with a bloke on some weak promise. Then there is the rest of the women that think of sex as men do or at least they think they do since for some it's self-dillusion.
They try easy sex and they don't like, they try easy sex again and the still feel emptiness and they go on until they conclude that either all men are bast-rds or that she can only blame herself for this feeling of emptiness.
Men don't suffer from this - sex is sex is fun times.
The problems start when a women gives it up real easy then expects the guy to offer his life and soul to her and if he doesn't she was tricked. I've known a few women get caught out like this. -

The Blood doctrine - A Medical or Scriptural issue?
by Jourles inif you were to ask any witness whether or not the blood doctrine is scripturally or medically based, you would receive the same answer 100% of the time.
"scripturally, of course.
there is one component in particular which shows the wts uses medically based information to cement its postion on what is and what is not allowed for a witness to accept.

If I asked an informed JW would he agree that GB allowed components of blood including haemoglobin? And is that on pain of conscience?
I did as one young JW, her response was blood transfusion is not allowed full stop. Maybe they are keeping it low profile even amongst members. -

"How many abouts do you see?; He was about thirty."
Historians and scholars will tell you that the word 'about' could be as much as +/- 2 or 3 years. According to comet data they place his birth between March and June 6/7BC. -

Desolation of Jerusalem
by Alwayshere inusing the wts's dates in the january 1.1965 page 29 : nabonidus= 17 years.
add 17 to 539=556, neriglissar==4 years, add 4 to 556=560, evil-marduk=2 years, add 2 to560=562, nebuchadnezzar=43 years, add 43 to 562 =605.
the bible at 2 kings 25: 8 and 9 says "in the 19th year of king nebuchadnezzar the servant of the king came to jerusallem and burned the house of jehovah.

607 verses 586/7 is a battle ground.
Can someone explain me the repercussions if ever the GB admit that they are wrong or if a tablet is found dating conclusively that desolation of Jerusalem occurred on 586/7.
If on the other hand a tablet says the GB are correct do they still have the hurdle of explaining their caculations for 1914 or are those calculations straight forward and easy for say housewife/husband to understand. -

Scholar,
I think it's just to painful for you to contemplate those questions as the true answers destroy the very essence of the God YOU worship.

Anger, chip call it what you want hollywood has pick of a few groups and has disseminated racism regarding these groups.
