"If you are teaching intolerance, we WILL shut you down!" English Prime Minister David Cameron

by stuckinarut2 in

the prime minister of england made the above statement yesterday regarding any schools that influence youths in a negative manner.. he went on to say that if youths are influenced in a negative manner regarding religious teachings that promote judgement of others (including same sex relationships, etc ) or that look down on other peoples free choice, the government would take action.. i cant find a newspaper article sorry...i just heard it on the radio news.... very interesting though...it may have a bearing on how those who learn ttatt are treated by the organization??

I thought you Brits had entrenched free speech into your laws?

John Stuart Mill in 1869 in his book On Liberty approached the problem of authority versus liberty from the viewpoint of a 19th-century utilitarian: The individual has the right of expressing himself so long as he does not harm other individuals. The good society is one in which the greatest number of persons enjoy the greatest possible amount of happiness. Applying these general principles of liberty to freedom of expression, Mill states that if we silence an opinion, we may silence the truth. The individual freedom of expression is therefore essential to the well-being of society. Mill wrote:

If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and one, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind,

So whats he talking about?

You Brits sound so nice when I hear you talk with your accents! You guys and gals could sell ice to the Inuit/Eskimo with the way you guys talk. LOL Even when it's one of your politicians peddling bullshit.

who has experienced real demonic incident?

If you could only visit my JW relatives they would all give testimony that would probably pass polygraph analysis that every meeting with me was and is a demonic incident ! I take a certain satisfaction from such incidents even if the nuances of such meetings are imperceptible to most. LOL

You should try diesel fuel, rub that on they don't like that either used to use it for that purpose when I was a kid. Works great! But there are downsides to it though.

Does Anyone Still Believe in God?

by LaurenM in

do any of you ex-jw's still believe in god?

even with the new rebranding/softening of this religion, i still don't see how people can believe in him.

the god of the old testimate is an angry murderer who approved rapes and slavery and killed thousands of men, women and children.

Viviane maybe your work here is done but by the sounds of things there is still work to do in Russia! LOL

So, does anyone have anything of value to say?

Viviane you are a cantankerous sort. That's a fact! But I think you have value at least to me.

What is your purpose or what do you wish to accomplish while a member of this board?

by Tenacious in

when i joined this forum i was seeking more people who felt the same way i did in terms of seeing the jehovah's witness organization for what it truly was; a false prophet.. once i found like-minded members i slowly started to open up and participate more in trying to help others that were also exiting mentally and physically.

today, i offer support to anyone who desires it regardless of what they believe or not believe.. so what is your purpose on this board?.

support?

I have been out of the Borg for so long that it's mostly just a distant memory for me. It is fun to relive experiences that I have in common with so many on here and I learn a great deal from this site. For instance, had it not been for this site I never would have known about the new light on the overlapping generations nonsense. If I didn't still have family trapped in I would probably never have found this site and wouldn't find visiting so compelling. It really was fluke finding it for me!

My Mother Died Two Weeks Ago

by Perry in

friends

none of my jehovah's witness relatives called to tell me or my family.

just found out this morning.

truthseeker100

My condolences Perry. The same thing happened to me with my Father so I know what it feels like. It's a sick twisted cult and your Mother's son didn't deserve to be treated that way. Stay on the sunny side of life ultimately that's all we can do.

Mass disassociation pact...

by freemindfade in

any takers?

we can pick a date and pull the plug?

lol .

truthseeker100

Why limit this to new dissociate's why not a letter of reaffirmation of disassociation or disfellowshipping saying thanks I'll never be back. It's a long time to 8/8/16 so lots of time to throw out ideas.

I went down in the first Round!

by John Aquila in

there is a visitor brother in town and from what ive been told, he has been a missionary for many years and they were having a get together for him.

i took my mom to that get-together yesterday and stayed for a few minutes.

i heard a group around a table with the visitor brother talking about how hard it was getting in the world with so many distractions and that many of the brothers were falling into the trap and leaving jehovahs organization.

The picture doesn't look like any construction workers I've ever seen! Clean and new gloves, no marks on the hard hats, clean clothes, ect....

Looks more like an advertisement in a magazine.
