I wish it weren't so but I believe they could drop 1914 and a large percentage of the people in the organization wouldn't even quiver. From what I've seen it's mostly the older ones who still have some kind of doctrinal understanding and the majority of them are simply incapable of admitting that the organization is fundamentally flawed and consistently dishonest. They will hang on because they can't admit they've been duped for their entire lives in the organization.

Does this look like the WT is going to be around a long time? One Watchtower @ One Awake for the public in 2022
by pistolpete ini keep hearing that the watchtower org is going to be around forever because of the many other religions that have been around a long time.
but i disagree because the wt is not like other religious cults.. the watchtower's breath of life is dependent on the last days that started in 1914. .
you can’t change 1914 without a death blow to the entire organization.. the watchtower's 2nd reason for staying alive, is it's continual urging that the life saving preaching work of warning people is the most important work ever.. but- it's very obvious to many, even the old ones that instead of speeding up the work------the work is slowing down to a drip.. comment by former believer; .

Liberal vs. Conservative mental health study - what do you make of it?
by Brock Talon ina pew study from 2020 (but one i just now came upon myself) reported that the more liberal you are, the more likely you are to have a mental health condition.
the worst suffering group are white females, ages 18-29 where over 56% have admitted to be described by their own doctors as having a mental health condition.
conservative females of the same age group suffer at less than half that number (27%).. while women tend to have more mental health problems than men (don't be mad at me for saying it, this is what the study reports) it is notable that liberal men have a higher percentage of mental health conditions than conservative women in the same age group.

Being a Liberal requires cognitive disability of some kind, usually several kinds.

What’s Your Opinion of Vice President Kamala Harris?
by minimus ini think she has the happiest laugh i’ve ever heard!.

She's a not very bright slut who screwed her way into office and who masquerades as a minority, she's more Irish than black and more Indian than Irish.

Critical Race Theory…do you think kids should be forced to be taught this in schools?
by minimus ini do not support crt.
but having said that i find it disturbing that schools are teaching children whatever they want to teach.
if parents object or even teachers refuse to teach something, anything that violates their conscience or morals, i don’t think government or schools have the right to push these people to accept it.

Critical Race Theory is straight up Marxist propaganda. The Reds have moved on from national movements to race. They are entirely cynical about using the gullible for their own ends.

Never bought in to the 'don't prepare" BS and neither did my parents. I retired a millionaire and I am glad I did, I knew quite a few others that made reasonable provisions for retirement. I don't have much sympathy for those that preferred to live like grasshoppers, they can't blame their circumstance entirely on the organization.

Does Politics Affect Your Entertainment Decisions and Choices?
by minimus inif coke disturbed you because of a certain stance would you stop buying coke?
would you stop watching a sport if a certain view was politicized?.
would you boycott a certain product because you did not agree with the corporation’s opinions?

Jazzbo
Yes it does. There are products I will not buy, people I will not watch or listen to and establishments I will not enter.

You have obviously never been to Nigeria. I have never seen a place so steeped in crime and corruption. One of only two countries where I got armed guards when traveling.

Derek Chauvin - The Right to a Fair Trial
by Simon inanyone following the derek chauvin trial?.
if you are actually following it, not just listening to the media, you will likely realize that there is a huge gap between what is going on in court and what is being reported in the media.. if the trial was fair, i think he should be acquitted.
there is plenty of reasonable doubt about the cause of death (his dealer doesn't want to testify because he could be guilty of 3rd degree murder for selling him a fatal amount of fentanyl) and even doubt over whether the officer even had his knee on the guys neck or did anything counter to what they were meant to do as per policy.. but is it fair?

I doubt very much if this police officer can get a fair trial in this environment which is a shame. There have been wall-to-wall lies about this from the Media and race baiting activists from the beginning. I have one very simple question, why was there no bruising on Floyd's neck, back or shoulder? The fact that there was no bruising means the narrative was a lie. The officer is innocent and should be declared so. Of course, BLM and Antifa will burn Minneapolis down if justice is actually done.
