  Obama to speak from the Oval Office tonight (8:00 eastern)

  by Coded Logic in

  1. social
  2. current

  this will be only the 3rd time he's spoken from the oval office in his seven years so it's probably going to be something pretty big.

  combat troops being sent into syria?

  unilateral movement on gun control?.

  "This is not the time for islamophobia. Islam is a peaceful & happy religion and muslim Americans must enjoy the same freedom to practice their religion as all Americans. Hate & discrimination will not be tolerated."

  how much you wanna bet? Then some more bullshit on "diplomacy" and "we need better ways" of dealing with this. More John kerry/hillary clinton bullshit. And then the inevitable: "we must realize that this was another american citizen who purchased these deadly assault weapons legally."

  Some crazy "see something/say something (but don't profile based on race or religion)" BS.

  guilt & blame, guilt & blame; America = bad, terrorists = bad (but hey, we may deserve it), and finally, Americans should be able to defend themselves, but not in a deadly way. Hide in place! That seems to work splendidly. Let our mentally stable police forces handle it.

  I don't know what's worse: liberal BS or the "buy plastic & duct tape!!!" fear mongering from neocons.

  I watched that DISC/NatGeo/Animal Planet program about extinction the other night & I gotta tell ya, none of this matters anyway. Talk about guilt trip--a much deserved one! The Anthropocene Extinction is underway right now due to our collective greed, jealousy, xenophobia, exploitation and outright raping of our entire planet. Good job, human race. Good job. We deserve what's coming IMHO, not from terrorists or politicians, but from Mother Nature. Her response will ultimately solve the problem (us) & bring this planet back into balance.

  $400 million isn't much for a global institution. You'd be surprised how quickly it can go (or be used to play catch up after bad investments).

  I worked in an R&D company whose annual budget was $250 million. That's a for-profit company, tho--I get that. But it was one hallway in one building at one of many locations and $250M wasn't even a big deal.

  the bOrg is a non-profit 501c3. This financial windfall is a one-shot deal. Once they collect, they're never going to bring in an amount like this again.

  I think they're in serious trouble and a few hundred million $$$s aren't going to do a goddam thing for the mess they're in.

  I proudly identify as an atheist. Are we to assume by the OP that this is something to be ashamed of or to shy away from? Because I'm not and I don't.

  CEDARS (Again) Is it really about religious beliefs?

  by Listener in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  john cedars has posted his latest blog "the trouble with apostates (and why it shouldn't put you off becoming one)".

  i acknowledge that he is entitled to his opionin just as we are ours but i am disappointed in some of his comments.. at this stage i'll try to be objective about it.

  he is defending his own position after all.. what bothers me most is his comments about athiests and christians which he seems to identify as being in conflict with each other.

  JWs, UFO's, demons, and the book "The Dark Gods"

  by MikeHammer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have been looking into this issue that (many/most/all/etc) ufos are caused by demons as seems to be said by jws.

  some time ago when i browsed this site i read a posting where someone recommended a book titled "the dark gods" by roberts and gilbertson (here is a link to the book at amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/dark-gods-anthony-roberts/dp/009138771x).. besides that one there are a couple of other books that i have checked (one of these is "operation trojan horse" by john keel and the other one is "a guide to the paranormal" by magnus raven).

  both of these say the same thing although they approach this issue from different directions.. looking at the amazon reviews for "the dark gods" it looks like it also says the same thing but the book is out of print.

  The point is, wt squelches any fun or enjoyment by discouraging imagination.

  ufo lore has now attained the level of romantic legend; it's apocryphal tales transcend borders. It piques the interest of young minds and lays the foundation for exploration.

  but the bOrg comes along & says, "nope. bad. unbiblical. stay focused on JW shit. and fuck your imagination--satan likes a daydreamer."

  The modern ufo mythos is bullshit, but it's also just another "frowned upon" thing by this miserable fucking cult--and THAT is what makes me angry.

  The Watchtower are humans

  the watchtower are humans.

  they have never had any conversation with any god, let alone one by a made up name.

  they never had any power at all bestowed upon them.
