It's about how you don't see the problem or double standard. Why do 3.5 million citizens have to regester, and the rest don't
Yes, I strongly agree, but I have a problem with Beck and others comparing it to registering Muslims, the hidden message there is that gun owners are people who would want Muslims registered. No this is not gunowners asking for Muslim registration, I am tired of the old racism by association trick used by the main stream media.

Neither Muslims nor gunowners should have to register. The people should be watching the government not the other way around.
let's see... .the sumerians existed 10000 years ago.. archaeologists have found a settlement in china with evidence of tools and agriculture that is over 1.36 million years old.
.
hmmm.. that's a big difference between 6000 and 1.36 million.... .
Unfortunately the OT doesn't give you any wiggle room if you take it literally you have to turn your back on modern science, unless you start to take it as parable.
And then why has religion through the ages always got it wrong, the earth is flat, it revolves around the sun, and those crazy medical beleifs. But science theories are always being proven wrong also.
So we live in world of uncertainty not really knowing nor will we ever know in this lifetime the absolute truth about eternity or the origins of humanity. This uncertainty can either bug the hell out of you or you can just accept it. Or you can put fanatical faith in a religion or science.

The rich don't pay taxes the poor are subsidized and in between sits the oppressed and vanishing middle class. Whenever a politician says tax hikes for the rich he always means tax hikes for the middle class. When the middle class is gone who will pay for the poor, it sure ain't gonna be the rich buddy.

I kind of like Thomas Jefferson's reasoning on the existence of God,
"Question with boldness even the existence of a god; because if there be one he must approve of the homage of reason more than that of blindfolded fear."
-- Thomas Jefferson, Letter to Peter Carr, August 10, 1787
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
When he refers to blindfolded fear of God I think, of course, of the JW's.
by now you all know there is a problem with the pipe in the well...and by now you've probably heard all the stories of people who have been sickened from the toxins....the claim that all the water is fresh and clean and the food ready to eat...but those who are realists understand that this has not gone away, it won't go away for years and sooner or later, all the people that were covering up for bp or the government, will begin to speak.
this example of the dead birds is just one of many rising up and being heard........sammieswife.
dead birds found on modoto island off louisiana coast, cnn ireport, august 26, 2010:.
I don't think we know the whole story yet information is being withheld...
"EPA did not immediately respond to requests for comment. It is under fire from Congress for allowing BP and the coast guard to ignore its order last May to cut the use of dispersants by 75%. Documents released by the Massachusetts Democrat Ed Markey this week show the EPA allowed spraying of dispersants 74 times over a period of 48 days. At times, the EPA gave advance approval for the use of dispersants for up to a week. The documents also showed the EPA allowed BP to spray 36,000 gallons of Corexit in a single day. The controversy surrounding EPA's role in the oil spill marks a turning point for the Obama administration, which came to power vowing to repair the frayed relationship between scientists and government under George Bush and promising a new era of transparency.
Nine leading scientists have written a public letter calling on BP and the Obama administration to release all scientific data related to the spill, including wildlife death. "Just as the unprecedented use of dispersants has served to sweep millions of gallons of oil under the rug, we're concerned the public may not get to see critical scientific data until BP has long since declared its responsibility over," said Bruce Stein of the National Wildlife Federation."
there are countless issues that people have with the society and which together have led to many people realizing that it is not what it claims and pretends to be.
these include things like the secret un affiliation, contradictory and hypocritical stances, (malawi vs mexico vs un/ngo), the ever changing blood policy and ever changing doctrine, failed predictions for armageddon etc, etc, etc.. but what is the consensus about what the fundamental flaw is?.
what i mean is, many jw's hear about these various issues and manage to make endless excuses for them, even though this involves gross hypocrisy and excusing the society for things they would never excuse in other religions and which the society itself has ruthless condemned other religions for over almost 100 years.
I think your question is best but the other fundamental question is since all their predictions in the twentieth century were wrong and Deuteronomy says that when a prophet phrophecies and what they say does not come to pass that is a false prophet and should not be listened to, in that case why does the Watchtower Society still exist?
Rutherford looks like a Mafia Godfather, did he need a honor guard to protect him from a hit?
aside from a song or two at the memorial the last few years, i haven't been exposed to any kingdom songs in a long time (5+ years) yet certain lyrics keep popping into my head quite frequently.. "there is joy in the service for all, it's the work jesus did you'll recall".
"soon there'll be great banqueting in which the meek will share, this good news of the kingdom let us preach".
"on many occasions god spoke long ago by means of his prophets on earth here below".
...These must be restored to their places
By Witnesses with bold beaming faces. ( witness with a bold beaming face)
I thought this was one of the funnier lyrics
christendom's failure to preach the true gospel message!.
woe to me if i do not preach the gospel!
consider the following words of jehovah:.
Why should we believe the Witness end of the world prediction is right this time when they have gotten it wrong so many times before?
