Thanks for the perspectives so far all. I would like to hear more from the Japanese, Russian and European members on this forum. Again lets all hope that history never repeats itself when it comes to atomic weapons. In the words of many WW2 vets that I've known "Never Again!"

Do you think the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a war crime or a terrible act of war ?
by truthseeker100 ini believe that the bombings shortened the war in the pacific and probably saved countless lives.
i am not an expert on this subject but given the times it was probably the correct and moral thing to do.. what say you all?.

Nuclear weapons do kill enemy people and destroy the enemy's things better than anything else in man's arsenal after all that is the objective to winning any war.
We now have nuclear weapons many times more powerful I hope that it will never be necessary to use them again. We all know how the fourth world war will be fought don't we. Lets hope that as a species were not consigned to be victims of our success in this area.
As for a war crime ? All war is a crime of sorts. I think given the same scenario the US would be justified in doing it again. A true war crime would have been dropping atomic weapons unprovoked.

They should have a debate on weather or not the atomic bombs that were dropped by the US on Japan really happened. It could have been a series of high explosives with nuclear debris thrown in (Dirty Bomb). With the technology available at the time the Japanese and the rest of the world could easily have been fooled. Solving complex riddles like this helps all individuals fulfill their full intellectual potential.
Maybe I should start a thread on that ?

regarding Jacksons testimony.
by umbertoecho inhas anyone here re-watched that last day?
the part where justice mcclellan is asking mr jackson if he feels that this royal commission is a sincere effort to make some good changes in policy...?.
and does mr jackson feel it would be worth it to put a collective effort, along with other organizations to compensate or find means of redress, for the victims of child sexual abuse?.

I predicted that he wouldn't testify that he would fake a heart attack. I was right he had a figurative symbolic heart attack that overlapped his testimony in true governing body style, he did testify though as if he had nothing to hide, a true deluded liar he believes is own bullshit. -

Viviane: Also, unless they're being taught how to evaluate evidence and quality thinking skills first, any "debate" like that (because there is no debate) will simply serve to make a lot of those kids dumber.
Yes but being dumber seems to be a quality that is in demand and may be a marketable skill these days. As evidenced by 400 or so posts in this subject area!
Take care all.

Geoffery Jackson Plan Against the Commission
by thedepressedsoul ingeoffrey jackson will attempt to df them all, shun them, take away their privileges, write a wt article on them, have the elders talk to them, their family cut off ties with them, read them watchtower articles, tell them they need to submit at least 10 hours per month etc... .
then, the "oh shit" look on his face moment when he realizes he has no power outside of his pinky ring club.

I still say a fake heart attack or stroke is on the horizon. It would be the perfect card for the GB to play at this time.It would shift the focus for the dubs off the Royal Commission and put it right back on the governing body.
The dubs could then concentrate on praying for the governing body, no testimony, and a long medical convalescence some where nice where questions can't be asked because of medical directives of his doctor.
With their money and connections they can easily pull something like this off. If I were in the same position that's exactly what I would do.

A question the Chair (Mclellan) may want to ask G. Jackson
by Indian Larry inmr. jackson, we have heard testimony from mr spinks and mr. obrien that women will never have leadership positions in the congregation.
as i understand it mr. jackson, you interpret revelation 7 to mean that only 144,000 will go to heaven and that these 144,000 will rule the earth.
i also understand that your organization teaches that women are part of this "remnant" of 144,000. can you explain why jesus christ is willing to put women in leadership over the entire earth but you are not willing to permit them to have anything to do with helping victims of pedophiles in your congregation?

Keep the questions simple
Just so we know we are talking the same language here If any reference is made to young kids and their generational problems approximately how many years are there in a generation and how many years have the present policies been in place?
What constitutes a known child molester?
The two witness rule in biblical times was used to determine when it was necessary to put a perpetrator to death,why do you need two witnesses?
What is spiritual death?
What is spiritual resurrection and how is it accomplished?
Have you ever advised someone not to report a case of child sexual misconduct to the authorities.
If not why not? If so when, where and why.
And on and on and on.
I can think of a million of them I like to ask.
