  i don't watch a lot of t.v.

  so i didn't really know who she was but am glad i know of her now after watching this interview.i think she can be as instrumental as leah remini is/was on helping people break free of harmful cults, religions and control groups.

  the things she discusses has many parallels with us as former j.w'sgoing to post the link here and hopefully it will embed.

  Come this Spring and Summer I'm going to try and be less White.
  Hopefully it will start off with a little red on my skin then turn a golden-brown.
  Followed by my hair getting lighter/blonder to show off a nice tan.
  Hey a guy can dream.

  Freedom from the panic/anxiety attacks I suffered from in my late teens and early twenties.
  Never had to go on meds of any type such as anti-depressants or anti-anxiety meds,
  All I had to do was give up that man made fear mongering organization always pushing Armageddon is imminent and that our best was never good enough. Once I did that all those anxiety attacks went away.
  Now I have no fear of some supposed "End" whether that be Armageddon, Apocalypse, Judgement Day, Rapture, Ragnarok, etc.
  Life is indeed good now. I just wish i had given up religion of all types much sooner so as to enjoy more of life when i was younger.

  I'm really impressed with the knowledge this "Apostate" has and how well he conducted himself.
  So much i could say but will let you see for yourself.
  Love to see when others aren't intimidated or humiliated by the so called "loving" brothers on the committee.

  Likability is one thing with Joe, Liking someone doesn't equate to a good leader.
  When dementia gets worse which it will in the next few years how could we know he would remember the codes if needed for the launch case. What if he can't remember the name of who he's suppose to get in touch with in a critical situation or emergency? He's already shown that in the above video and with dementia it only gets worse over the next few years.
  But even putting aside the forgetfulness lets go back about 40 years and trust him with his own words when he says he does dumb things and will continue to do dumb things in the future. I take him at his words on that. Not leader material. He amy get elected but I hate it for all of us that it comes down to either him or Trump to be honest but at this point since Trump hasn't started any new wars while in office and economy was booming until this 'virus" I'd have to go with Trump over Biden.
  Here's the vid on Biden over 30 years ago when he got caught and had done some "dumb" things.
  It's just under a minute but well worth the watch because i take him at his word that he's going to do more dumb things.

  As I've said before if the Dem's really were serious about unseating Trump why would they put Joe Biden against him. Even though I admit Trump has said some things that left me scratching my head trying to figure out what he meant it pales in comparison to what has been happening to Joe Biden. I really think Joe is getting dementia and I say this not to be mean but I had a member of family develop dementia and Joe is displaying all the same traits.
  How can anyone watch this 17 minute video and think he is a viable candidate is beyond me.

  I may have finally figured out why some today think we are responsible for what others did centuries ago....it's in the bible

  by StoneWall in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  we all know how adam and eve are supposedly responsible for selling all of mankind into sin and thus becoming "slaves to sin".so what they did (if it's not a fairy tale) affected all of the humans that would come after them.then at exodus 34:7 it goes on to show the sins of the father being passed down to the third and fourth generations7 "keeping lovingkindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin; and that will by no means clear the guilty, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children’s children, upon the third and upon the fourth generation.

  " (asv)even though i no longer look to the bible or regard it as i once did, i'm just trying to figure where some in today's world can even get the idea others are responsible for things that were done before they were born.

  only religion can make people feel guilty for things they never did/done or were a part of and then make others feel as if they're entitled to something..

  Sea Breeze said:
  "Double standards flow naturally from the false inconsistent idea that we can all each have our own truth... which makes each of them equally false according to another."
  
  ummm maybe double standards come from a so called holy book that says with god there is no partiality then in that same book goes on to say how he picked one race to be his chosen people.
  Or how Adulterers were to be stoned then goes on to make exceptions to their own rules. Did King David get stoned for his relationship with BathSheba? Speaking of good ole King David, how many wives and concubines did he have? Talk about double standards the bible is full of them.

  Anna Marina says: "Try moving beyond Exodus 34"
  
  Ok how's this? How about all the innocent Egyptian babies that were slaughtered for only being "guilty" of being the first-born? What did they do to deserve that?
  Next on my list...how about of Job's children that died just because supposedly God and Satan had a bet if Job would stay steadfast? What did they do?
  How about Jephthah's daughter having to answer for a vow he made to god at Judges chapter 11? What did she do? Why not allow him to answer for himself and let her make her own vows? The list goes on and when people try and say the bible teaches we answer only for our own sins I say wholeheartedly and unreservedly "BULLSHIT"
  

  But to get back to my original OP I was just trying to figure where these people think we owe them anything for what happened in the past. I've never owned slaves and they've never been slaves.
