  Witnessing Work to Stop?

  my 87 year old dad called me for the first time in 16 years the other day .... just to chat.

  i was floored to say the least since he didn't even bother to call me when my mom died several years ago.

  he called again today to inquire how i felt about jehovah's witnesses.

  the UN the "wild beast" will attack religion.

  The probability of that to happen is about nil, being that the UN is situated in one of the most religious countries in the world the US.

  Actually that country's written Constitution states protection and support of freedom of religion.

  You shouldn't believe or accept ancient mythological (expressions) prophecies.

  It avoids rational logical thought based in reality.

  How many of you would actually believe a child abuser would let his crime be watched by minimum two witnesses?

  by Thinkforyourself in

  2. child-abuse

  in many closed religious cults, sects or globally widely spread religions, sexual abuse on big scale is revealed and covered up by the religious authorities.

  in the jw, the culture is to deal with these matters within the org itself, and the rule is, "no crime can be proven without the presentation of at least two witnesses".

  men made the rules, men commit these crimes and men defend them and even forse these children to meet and talk to their abusers.

  If the accused sexaul abuser doesn't admit to the act, the elders are told to leave the matter in Jehovah's hands.

  Gee what could possibly go wrong with that approach ?, as for example the accused might attack again, move to a different location and attack again.

  This is how the ancient Hebrews would have handled the situation.

  The JWS are technically emulating that ancient civilization.
  

  The ancient Hebrews were not an advanced civilization, so their rules of social standards were not what you would consider by today's standards as being effective or practical.

  Maybe your hearing that from just plain old fashion idiots ?

  Quetzal if you call a AR15 a automatic assault rifle you have no idea what you are talking about.

  Yes it was specifically made for wild game hunting not for killing humans in a field of warfare.
  

  sheesh, some people are so dumb

  his murder was a crime and justice must be done, but it's sobering to learn more about the man who is being lionised by millions.

  thanks as always to the courageous candace owens.. ....

  A thought .....

  What if George Floyd acted the way he did in resisting arrest and the ensuing struggle with police out of knowing that there were bystanders watching the incident basically supporting him on his side ???

  Police brutality , police brutality by white police officers .....LOOK !

  See these guys are white racists picking on a colored person. !

  The National Anthem

  by BluesBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  recent controversies in america brought this to mind , although i don’t want this to become a political thread , rather to discuss the wts rules that stop a jw showing respect for the national anthem.. the watchtower says that doing so is an act of idolatry, giving worship to the state or its icon.

  as such witnesses remain seated when the anthem is played.

  in britain people simply stand quietly to show respect, there is no hand gesture.. when i was a boy, every cinema show and theatre concluded with the anthem,being played .usually it was orchestrally with no words sung.

  Anthems are a way or vehicle for people to express respect and pride for their country, it also creates an identity for people connecting them with their homeland.
  

  The WTS hates that they want people to show honor, loyalty and respect to their organization and the top GB leaders and give them some money as well so they can continue to lie and deceive people.

  The WTS is a power cult where have built up a semblance of power around themselves by proclaiming they are god's select chosen ones.
  

  Disgusting cult.

  Economic Recovery after COVID-19

  by Simon in

  it feels like we've really turned a corner, this morning especially.. the covid lockdowns are ending and medical systems were not overwhelmed plus there are existing treatments that have been proven to be effective (like hydroxychloroquine) and new vaccines and medicines in the pipeline.

  a week or so ago the dems were dead against opening things up but since they are encouraging protests (which often turn violent) they can't continue that stance - thus proving trumps claim that it will soon be gone.

  the majority of the deaths were politician-assisted (which i hope people are prosecuted for) so it's not the big risk we were led to believe and (over) reacted to.. the bls reported this morning that the us economy just added a huge number of jobs (most on record) and will undoubtedly benefit even more from a drive to source local production and supply chains going forwards.

  I think the concerning question is whether or not a reliable and effective vaccine is introduced, if it does and its distributed quickly, we would see pretty much all restrictions removed making way for economies revive .

  Stop and consider all the hotels all over the world and the people who work within that industry , then you have the airline industry.

  Plain and simple there are a lot of people out of work right now.

  Ironically knowing now what kind of person George Floyd was most people would never want to meet him .

  Shit all this guy had to do was just go down to the police station and admit he was passing counterfeit bills , they might have let him go that night with a date to return to court.

  I'll take that bet (except if I win I want you to donate it to a local animal-rescue shelter please)

  Sure and likewise, if I win you could do the same, both Calgary and Vancouver have those institutions running .

  The bet is on, may the best man win
