Deconstructing Splanes 'Generation' explanation
by Splash inat around 4 minutes into the september 2015 video splane said "for the man and the baby to be part of josephs generation they would have had to have lived at least some time during joseph's lifespan.".
this is the lynchpin of the wt argument, that two lives must overlap to be considered the same generation.. let's take an example of twins who are born just a few minutes apart.
obviously, these twins are the same generation as each other.

Sorry I meant to give you a thumbs up and hit the wrong one. I laughed so hard at that visual I banged my head on the toilet cistern! -

No offence SSC but which century are we talking about?My solution would to grant them temporary asylum and as soon as it's deemed safe in their own countries, send them back again
No offense taken. I probably have the thickest skin you're ever likely to encounter.
Of course you are right, from my time spent in Muslim countries where they are not even considered fundamentalist havens, I learned pretty quickly that being "safe" is relative. Not just in Muslim countries either but in third world countries in general and wherever there is a huge disparity between rich and poor, the have and the have-nots, those in power and those under their rule. Who knows when it will ever be safe in these regions.
My remark concerning "my solution" is not only over simplified, it's blatantly silly since it's so glaringly unrealistic. It's a tragic and complex situation I have witnessed with my own eyes across the continents in my years as an private sector attaché. We've all read about incidents of routine executions for "crimes" you or I would not bat an eyelid at, but when you're actually standing there in the dust with hundreds of men, women and children jeering and throwing stones at the hanging corpses, you can't help but feel that these people are not only beyond our help, but seem to readily accept these horrors as part of day-to-day life. Many I have spoken to would love to live in the abroad where life is better, but I got the very clear impression that their mentality would come along as part of their immigration baggage.
All that tells me is that the world may think we are ready for them to be amongst us but that would be like taking a wild animal you assume you have tamed into your home and later wonder why it mauled you. I can only suggest:
1) They have to willingly change themselves first.
2) If we are going to help them, find a way to offer education
Beyond that I have no idea. Since most of my adult life has been spent in the security business It is the only thing I can really give input on and letting those with this mentality mentality go unchecked amongst comparatively stable countries would be sheer folly.
Believe me (you could ask my wife) I still beat myself up thinking how I would see all that unnecessary suffering and then return to my safe home and comforts feeling like a hypocrite. Humans as a species have to cease and desist their barbaric behavior, whether it's a noose for a twelve year old girl or a "smart bomb" which stil unintentionally hits a school or hospital. Barbarism is barbarism, adding computers to it or a belief system does not change it any way shape or form.
My only hope is that technology will help break down barriers, destroy superstitions, end ignorance and stop prejudice. Beyond this I Don't know what else to say.
P.S. I do NOT feel bad for the adults who engage in this mentality, they have a choice. Kids on the other hand do not. They are brought into a vile arena devoid of compassion for the sake of an ideology. Those adults should be fighting those ideologies from within, for the sake of their kids if not anythimg else. Seeing these kids be victims of circumstance often made me wanto to shoot those very adults myself, and believe me it took no small measure of self restraint!

Well I'm sure they would say they are using Satan's own weapons against him or some such drivel, anything to justify their means no matter how illogical. -

Guppy Hunter:
read my posts. From one of my first posts on this forum when Cofty and Viv corrected me I did not argue, I listened and learned. Many of my posts show I not only admitt when I'm wrong, I eagerly ask for information and appreciate it. I study it and learn from it even when I disagree. To graduate from being a fool you have to take your licks and learn. Sorry, I respect and get on with almost everyone here but for those that are irrationally prejudice against others or fools. And because I'm a fool all too often and anger myself when I am, why should other fools be excluded from what I feel for myself in that mindset?

The thing with me is, I dont want to have to manipulate the situation to get my parents involved. It is the equivalent of being with man for 10yrs and browbeating him to marry you, you leave him in an attempt to 'convince' him he needs you, then he comes crawling back. To me, if he really wanted yo marry you - no browbeating would be necessary. Same with my mom (folks). If anything, I want natural affection to take over...not all of that background work.I have to disagree. Even as a husband there is no way my love for my wife should be able to come close to what a parent should have, particularly a mother who had your heartbeat in her and shared her blood with you for 9 months!
