It's too bad they don't have movies with a little more complexity than just good guy beats bad guy and then is instant hero.
I like movies like Forrest Gump, The shawshank Redemption, The outlaw Josey Wales ect.
i know this is a bit off the topic of religion, but i just got back from seeing ant man with my son.
i'm getting tired of the fact that hollywood (and in this case the action/hero genre) rarely seems to have an original thought.
has anybody noticed the same theme?.

so i had a discussion with my mother about this, and she claims that because of this that: "we are surely living in the last days right now" while i must admit myself that the situation seem chaotic, i don't want to believe that it is the last days.
so question is, how do i face an opinion like that?
I have read in a couple of articles about this European mess that Germany is regarded as the "Isreal" of Europe among the migrants/refugees. It just seems funny to me that people who are fleeing the religious extremism of ISIS and Arab Nations with a strong history of anti Jewish sentiment would regard Germany in this way. Germany is a country with a big history of extremism when it comes to anything anti Jewish hence the very existence of Israel.
I can hardly wait for Caleb from Florida to return and give us his thoughts.
so the wtb&t$ have either intentionally or unwittingly exposed their hand in this mornings wt indoctrination article.. this is a direct quote from par.
"regardless of how long we have been in the truth, we must tell others about jehovah's organization.
" the question is, "what obligation does psalm 48: 12-14 place on us?".
Regardless of how long we have been in the truth, we must tell others about Jehovah's organization."
I don't think there is a mentally diseased apostate on this forum who won't do this.

I am in my fifties now and things in the human,animal and plant world haven't changed much since I was a kid. In the human world things seem to get better for a while, our technology gets better our knowledge of diseases and how to alleviate them gets better but then a new disease comes along or our primordial instincts kick in conflict arises and the subsequent flood of refugees fleeing war torn areas and religious extremism begins and everyone rushes out to help them. The same story keeps recycling itself over and over and it has since biblical times.
Just as in the plant and animal world some species thrive for a while because of their environment then die out when conditions change and others adapt and continue thriving and it seems we humans have the unique ability to adapt and not change but still thrive it's really amazing when you think about it,

i'm interested to know if anyone has been to see a medium/clairvoyant since leaving jw's.
i must admit now i can make my own choices i seem to have a fascination with it although haven't acted on it as a) am i just jumping into believing another load of rubbish?
and b) what if it really is the demons pretending to be loved ones!!

It's no doubt offensive to the gay couples in question but she's not a danger to gay people.
This is true but she is not doing her job. The firefighter does not get to screen the ones they rescue they just do their job. Same with the police or a court officer. Weather or not she is a danger to or is offensive to gay people is irrelevant.

Kaik:Refugees that are rioting in Greece, Hungary, Czech Republic and demand higher allowances are nothing more than hostile invasion
I agree that many of them are as evidenced by the television scenes I saw today. Many of the "refugees" were violently demonstrating they did not appear to be the humble refuge seekers that they want us to think they are.
I appreciate hearing from you as you are close to the events happening and it's nice to have your perspective.
been sitting on this for a few days, confining my anger, to an area where i can control it.. two indian sisters to be raped as 'punishment' after brother eloped.
two sisters in india - one aged only 15 years - are to be raped as "punishment" for their brother running away with a married woman from a higher caste in the latest case to shock the country.meenakshi kumari, who is 23, and her younger sister, will then be paraded naked with their faces blackened through the streets, according to a ruling from the all-male village council.. the family are from the dalit caste, historically known as "untouchables".
however, the brother fell in love with a woman from the higher, jat, caste.
The caste system in India is steeped in the religious bigotry of extremists Hindu and Muslim belief.

It's no wonder when I meet people from India they are generally happy about being here.
