Surely the issue is more what they invest it IN rarther than needing to stash it offshore ( as Jeff mentioned they are Tax exempt). Even the most brainwashed dub cannot consider it OK for them to invest in arms, tobacco etc.??

Politically Correct Wasteland
by freemindfade inthis was a comment i made from another post, but i would like to hear some people discuss this.
i know the social justice warriors will scream i'm some sort of trump supporter for what i say even though i don't agree with his ideas and no i am not voting for him... i accept this is a go to for them.. i think we have fallen into a pc vacuum.. criticizing someones religion = racism!.
telling someone to not be so sensitive = misogyny!.

What does what I said have to do with trump lol!? Trump is the king of misogyny, no
You mentioned trump in about the second sentence...if your post was specifically about this board say so...you made it sound like a general observation on modern life....
Not an observation about a nasty and prolonged series of attacks on one person, on one thread on this board.

More Ant-Evolution BS in this months JW Broadcast Program
by ttdtt inso at around the 46 min mark - the are talking to this guy from ukraine who was a zoologist.. he talks about how he was a staunch evolutionist (who wasn't able to prove evolution to himself, by the way).
then when he studied nature through the lens of evolution - he found that nature contradicted evolution.. his big point came when he said - "imagine emptying a box of letter blocks on a table, and the encyclopedia britannica appears, or could a computer program come by chance.
so who could dna come by chance.".

I suspect he was a zoo-keeper rather than a zoologist.
Even a zoo keeper wouldn't be that ignorant...they are damned liars..just making stuff up....Dr Andersen again?

People can you back off this dude...it started off OK and you were starting to get into a reasonable convo about stuff with him, he was actually starting to listen after his first daft comment...
Richard I apologize ....you made a comment some don't agree with but you don't deserve insults for it that some at the beginning of the thread gave you.
Edited to add I think his wife uses this forum...maybe she's trying to wake him up. Why don't we help rarther than hinder.

and lots of sailboats. but where are the sailplanes? doing aerobatics?
Do you remember, pro logos, that other barmy illustration?they are going to arrive gracefully in white sailing boats! Presumably he's telling that crowd of n'er do wells about his resurrection experience!
forget clawing their way out of the cold, hard earth butt naked and smelly as in my over active childhood imagination!

Freedom from Religion
by bobld init should be mandatory for s.c.justices,judges and attorneys to take a four year course.
on the history of religion,bible and the koran.iam sure they would conclude that religion.
has little value in society.there would be no such thing as religious accommodation(lawsuits).

Patience and love is key, not Tyranny.
Agreed. Which is precisely why anyone who has considered the situation at all deeply wouldn't advocate laws imposing freedom from religion.
We will get there...to the first two I would add education also!

I think you may be surprised how much they do know. Most judges have studied philosophy at an advanced level.... and having done so would find it practically impossible to take the basic premises of, certainly the judaeo-Christianity of the bible, seriously.Islam is a little trickier as Muslim theologians tend to dissolve arguments from the problem of evil straight away, which together with free will is the first hurdle for a thiest to jump to achieve internal consistency in their belief system.
