Why dont practicing JWS cant accept the fact that the Watchtower Corporation is a commercialized false prophet ?

by Finkelstein in

to the majority of people who investigate the activities of the wts from its beginning history there were obvious false proclamations and doctrines propagated by the wts.. a matter of fact the wts produced a long list of literature that posted proclamations on the front cover and went into detail of things that were suppose to happen, from jesus returning changing the world in which we live and so on.. wonderful things one might say but not factual or either theologically correct .

It's a tribe to belong to. If you like that tribe or are in it for a compelling reason, then you might easily switch off that which may oppose it.

As humans, we tend to love our echo chambers and tribes. We love to be on what we think is the winning side. Thus, we allow the propaganda and brainwashing to only favour our tribe.

A bit like people stick to political parties, perhaps? We know they're all run by filth that are all about do as I say, not as I do, but still, people followed Matt Hancock's rules thinking he knew best. Meanwhile, back in the broom cupboard...............

Do You Love The Country You Are In or From?

by minimus in

jw
friends

most people over the generations have taken pride in their heritage, nationality and country they are from.

it’s not uncommon to hear of “proud” italians and proud irish people , as an example.

are you proud of your country and your nationality or do you feel shame or indifference?.

I like the UK less with each year. As for 'love'.........can't say it's a word I'd use. I was just born here awaiting a 'New world(tm) from Jehovah(tm)'. So, I don't really have any feelings. I'd go as far as to say that 'love' is just a fake evolutionary thing we get trapped into.

I could easily live in Canada. Probably near as Toronto without being in it.

Does Anybody Here Pray To God?

i’m just curious..

min - I think a lot of people who may say they don’t pray would pray if they were on a plane and the plane ran into engine trouble.

Nah. Still wouldn't.

The only time I call out, 'Oh, god, oh, god!' is when I'm doing a Matt Hancock with a decent filly in the cupboard.

Why pray to a non existent, imaginary narcissist?

Short answer, No!

Juneteenth

by minimus in

jw

are you ready to celebrate??

it’s such a big holiday that the local electric company will be closed in order to celebrate.

only emergencies will be dealt with on that day.. what are you doing for the holiday?.

punkofnice

min - As a white male I love fried chicken and watermelon. I hope that doesn’t mean anything negative

I don't like watermelon that much.

What I can tell you, is the perpetually offended will look for any excuse to shout out an 'ism'.

It's getting ridiculous now. It seems to be turning into a bit of an industry for the bed wetting, twitter slobs that live in their mother's back bedroom. I sense very little sincerity with these virtue signallers.

Politicians are using it thinking it will increase popularity. Corporations are using hoping to make profit. Both are not reading the populous very well.

Obviously, there is more nuance than that, but you get my drift, methinks.

.......anyway. What was Juneteenth again?

Here in the UK, so far we've escaped the latest Faux Marxist bollox....and long may it last.

Virtue signalling, insincere nonsense and you can keep it. What about other slaves from other ethinicities? Exactly! It's all insincere!

The only emancipation from slaveship is me escaping the jobo cult.

Critical Race Theory…do you think kids should be forced to be taught this in schools?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i 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.

punkofnice

No!

It's an industry designed to bring apartheid under the disingenuous pretense of equality. It's very racist.

It's an industry and frauds like Robyn DeAngelo are cashing in. Shame on her.

Shame on the fools that jump on the latest psychotic bandwagon to virtue signal to the racebaiters. They should be sectioned and put in a mental home.

What’s Your Opinion of Vice President Kamala Harris?

i think she has the happiest laugh i’ve ever heard!.

Luckily as a Brit in Briainistan, I don't have to worry about her. However, what I've seen (probably from a biased media), makes her look like a typical odious politician we're now seeing in 2021.
