  Does This Make Me A Racist?

  todays newspapers are full of the le pen story.

  much concern is being voiced that right-wing organisations will ride on this story to make their own agendas more widely known, ie, send all the immigrants back home, britain for the british, sod off everyone else!.

  now i personally love different cultures.

  :
  Can I just re-iterate something here. I don't care what colour a person is, be he purple or sky-blue-pink. I don't care where they come from, I believe eveyone should be treated equally and receive opportunities according to their merits.
  My main point in starting this thread was to voice my frustration at persons who do not make an effort to adapt to their adopted country's customs and language.

  LDH and Abaddon both made valid points that some persons are inacapable of learning a new language. I gave this some thought and my conclusion is that it is precisely this sort person who should not emigrate to another country

  I agree with those words

  And.. the Fact is:
  When the British first land to Oceanic continent (Australia + islands).
  The first thing they tried to do is to kill as much the local people as they can (we call them Aborigines here, similar to the Indian in State). Yes they tried to wipe out all the Aborigines at Tasmania state instead of tried to learn Aborigines language ! (Is it fair to suggest all the immigrants from Italy arrive UK and kill all Anglo-Saxon, then teach Italian ?). Eventhough long before British, the Chinese Gold-diggers already been in Tasmania around 4,000 years ago (according to a comment by Mr. John Law, a talk-show host of 2UE-radio about the existence of Dingo-dog came from China and we also have the word 'dinkum' in 'fair-dinkum' from these mine-diggers, whenever they find out the pure gold, they raise it up and shout 'chinkung,' means 'real, genuine, 100%'), they didn't try to wipe out the local people from this continent; and latter on, the French came but they didn't grasp this land, too (they left a lot of places that they named them in French, ie. Brighton le Sands, Matraville, Gladesville and all -ville).
  If the British can not learn the local language (Aborigine Australian), should they come to this Oceanic continent?

  I just wonder why the foreigners can get along well in most
  Scandinavian countries, Canada , some European countires (like Greek, Spain..) and South America but not in Germany (neo-Nazism ?)UK and Australia (recently when a boat was rejected by Australian, New Zealander happy to accept them all !). The problem maybe in the heart: You should follow us instead of a so-call "melting-pot"

  Englishman went to China for a research course in 3 yrs.
  He always avoid to go to the Club at the corner of Tiamen
  Square, where all English-speaking reporters used to be there
  and avoids to speak English even though he surrounded by
  English and English-speaking friends !!!! (afraid to be called 'ghetto', then reject one of the human right!)

  http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.asp?id=26245&site=3

  After those 3 years, Englishman decides to stay there
  because he can see the hospitality of Chinese people. He
  applied for a citizenship but he couldn't understand well
  Chinese writting. Luckily, the offical is a Hongkong Chinese,
  can speak his English and kindly help him to use the interpreter
  service availlable to fill the form (all E.T. characters!).
  Englishman thought this Chinese man should shout "YES, YES you
  should know 'our easy language' before you can be our citizen" (in reality, it's only easy
  for people with the similar culture like Japanese or
  Korean). Even if the INS official did shout to him,
  he can only smile and answer in Chinese:
  "Me no Mendaring spoking" eventhough there are
  100 free Chinese-courses availlable(HeHeHe???).
  Today, after 10 yrs in China, Englishman still can not write Chinese
  but he did enjoy love and kindness from the true good neighbours.
  His wife is the black-hair Chinese girl with red-Hawaiian-dress who's
  dancing on the left picture. His wife doesn't believe any barriers
  can stop they love each other as human being. She studied English
  for she knows he has difficulties with WacoTowerism. They are now
  living in happiness with a little boy can speak two languages.
  However, Englishman' sister-in-law (the blue-Hawaiian-dress dancer
  on the right) can not understand why Englishman could ever believe
  in a couple of decades about a Paradise, where Eve tried to repeat
  "Flu-wer" after Adam when she first saw the tulips field in Holland !
  Englishman now feels fully happy and he even can sing-a-long with Mr.
  Bing Lee(an owner of a couple of electrical shops in China) "I like
  Chinese ...foods" that 2UE radio plays every morning, while Englishman
  enjoying Yum-Cha,looking his wife and his sister-in-law dance. He also thinking about the comments in the Kingdom Hall he attended before "That brother/sister is a new baptizer anyhow" with a smile.

  Sounds like "If you decide to get baptism, you should give up all your lifestyle, speak 'pure language', dress moderately (skirt should cover your knees even in sitting down HeHeHe!!!!), only make friends with people who shares the 'spiritual values (ANOTHER HeHeHe!!!)
  And ...still can not get rid the WacoTower and Dark Society syndrome even after many years out from the Borg. Yeh?
  BTW, according to David Reed (former elder in Texas), his wife tried to encourage old sisters back to the meetings at Kingdom Hall by herself wearing trousers instead of skirts (old sisters stayed home because they can not wear skirt in winter time _ as David tell us as such). Then, together with other reasons, David Reed and his wife were kicked out because of this behaviour, which "violate" the culture of Kingdom Hall!

  The Watchtower *trinity*

  by ChristianObserver in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as a relative newcomer, i don't know whether anyone has ever made this observation before - so apologies if they have.. one of the main areas of disagreement between jehovah's witnesses and orthodox christians is the 'trinity'.. to an outsider (i.e.

  christian - not a jehovah's witness), the organisation has their own *trinity* which has replaced the orthodox 'trinity' of father, son and holy spirit.. the command at .

  matthew 28 v 19 - 20: 'go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy ghost: teaching them to observe all things whatsoever i have commanded you: and, lo, i am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world.

  Yes, Francois+Marilyn
  I still remember I first read that book by Richard Bach when I were 16 years old and were a freshman in uni. and about a year latter, I stopped uni. to become a fulltime slave to WacoTower and Dark Society
  .So I didn't have chance to watch the movie, but I did listen Neil Diamond with sound of the seagulls. I still love to go to the beach near my place (5 minutes drive) just to watch the seagulls, dream about my time....Thank you for reminding me about it (I set tears now. Sorry)

  A couple of weeks ago, someone did post a cover of the Adventist's magazine with the name of magazine is "The Watch Tower", nice and cool. That's why The WacoTower and Dark Society always reminds us that "Announcing of Jehovah's Kingdom" is a part of its magazine's name. Maybe someone can post that picture again over here. I still have it in my PC, but I don't know how to post it here.
