Convicted murderers in a court of law facing a possible death penalty have MANY more rights than,unborn babies in their mothers' wombs.
Because even after you 'load the language' convicted murders are human beings with personalities, and 'unborn babies' (are eggs 'unborn chickens'?) of an age where abortion would be given for social reasons in a well-regulated healthcare system are not human beings with personalities.
If someone doesn't have a personality, then they are not someone.

Lots of people have no personalities (you didn't define that), should they receive post-natal abortions?

Moral equivalency is neither moral or equivalent, i.e., convicted murderers being compared to unborn children.
Actually, you can't compare them, for the reasons given above. And yes I am being semantically awkward. It's a gift

Glad you pointed out that "It's a gift" I wouldn't have recognized it otherwise. BTW, "moral equivalency" is a term used to indicate that there is no right or wrong. They have become interchangable. Convicted killers are deserving of death, unborn babies deserve a chance to live. Right and wrong is clear and it is not interchangable. Gifted semantics is not needed.

Oompa-- LOL yeah, I didn't know what an "apostate" I was till I came here! Thought Criminal! Disputing the veracity and properness of the proper food at any time.

OTWO--great points. I didn't recognize the condescending and manipulative tone (who says it's a well known fact?) of that clip fully until your breakdown.

I guess Germany and England were arguing about South American, then the Germans sank the Lusitania in 11/14. The US policy was to stay out of it until Germany appeared to be on the verge of victory.

---From the book Don't Tread On Me by H.W. Crocker III

Chancellor Georg Hertling stated: "At the beginning of July, 1918, I was convinced...that before the 1st of Sept. our adversairies would send us peace proposals...We expected grave events in Paris for the end of July. That was on the 15th. On the 18th even the most optimistic of us knew that all was lost. The history of the world was played out in 3 days."

The German army had eviscerated Russia. It had crumpled Serbia, Romania, and Italy. It had demoralized the armies of France. And yet, on the western front--now the decisive front--the bulldog British and the hard charging Americans held the line and then advanced, shifting the tide so that imminent German domination of the European continent became imminent German defeat."

The book goes into great detail about the battles.

I heard a good story yesterday, true as well. Some American and British troops were training together. Some yelled out, "Join the religion of peace...or they'll kill ya!". Someone else yelled out, "If we hadn't fought the nazi's, we'd all be speaking german." This continued back through history until an American yelled out, "If we hadn't fought the British....we'd all be speaking.....?" A British soldier finished it for him by yelling, "Damn tax-dodgers!" LOL

JWs are having a tough time

yesterday i made a post that discussed some common argumentation methods that jws use to defend their religion and why they are faulty.

you can read that post here.

in that post i mentioned how jws live in a system that encourages, rewards, and praises people for using poor thinking methods.

Is it loving of brothers to stike at one of the other nation. What if there were two men of the same religion, one from Germany, on from America, fighting a war? Would that be showing love?

So not fighting Nazi's, was showing love? Or was showing love saving people from nazi slaughter?

Drew, you make good points. They're foundation is weakening, thus the borders (no internet, or as that bunch of geezers would probably say 'interweb' LOL ) are being enforced.

JWs Use A "Very Powerful Weapon" to Silence Ex-JWs

by AuldSoul in

insight on the scriptures volume 1,p.787expellingone who was cast out as wicked, cut off entirely, would be considered worthy of death, though the jews might not have the authority to execute such a one.

nevertheless, the form of cutting off they did employ was a very powerful weapon in the jewish community.

jesus foretold that his followers would be expelled from the synagogues.

Sooner or later the ACLU or some other organization may tackle the issue on the basis of human rights as divorce and child custody issues continue to rise - sammieswife.

Sorry to say, but the ACLU would probably side with the WTS's so called "right" to shun.

It's a tough and heart-wrenching thing, but seems the best approach would be to be fearless, if the worst happened and your family was pressured to view you as "dead", voicing the fact that freedoms are not granted to us by any group, or elders, or JC's or gov't for that matter. Our rights are granted to us by God, and anyone who interferes with that is in violation of the US Constitution, which the borg has no respect for unless its advancing their goals. Then they pull it right out and site it endlessly. (not sure, probably pretty uniform throughout the western world)

JW's have gotten to used to readily submitting their power and control over to the borg, so this will be foriegn and 'dangerous' (thought crimes) to them initially. But they will think it about it. If they don't think about it at that point, they never will. The issue of freedom gets me worked up.
