So how long until Biden bites the dust? Do you think a small case of the Arkancide come 2022 will be necessary?

2 + 2 = 5?! lol
by LoveUniHateExams ininteresting video from carl benjamin.. apparently, some philosopher is arguing that 2 + 2 doesn't always = 4; sometimes it equals 5.. this is madness, utter madness.
i'm a scientist; objective reality does exist.
the existence of gravity isn't up for debate.

@Simonsez: Perhaps you should read a bit further than whatever the CNN/wokecrowd shovels forward:
The term two spirit was adopted ... in 1990 at the third annual Native American/First Nations gay and lesbian conference ... The decision to adopt this new, pan-Indian term was deliberate, with a clear intention to distance themselves from non-Native gays and lesbians, as well as from non-Native terminology like berdache, "gay", "lesbian", and "trans".
Not all cultures will perceive two-spirits the same way, or welcome a pan-Indian term to replace the terms already in use by their cultures. Additionally, not all contemporary Indigenous communities are supportive of their gender-variant and non-heterosexual people now.
What's more, the same page on Wikipedia has a list of words natives actually use to identify homosexuals which is generally "male who acts as a woman" or some other term that clearly sets forward a dysfunction from the gender binary.
As for the blog post you linked to, the closest the writer could get is that homosexuality was sometimes written about, generally denigrated, in Roman culture and that sometimes women could have the same rights as sons if no and then only until a male heir was produced. That is NOT the same as gender dysphoria, the Bible has the same provision in some cases where no male heirs are present, that does not mean those people take on a different gender.
I do understand homosexuality has always existed and people with severe mental illness have as well, but that does not mean it was ever normalized.

I think the Dems have largely forgiven other Dems for outright pedophilia (eg. multiple witnesses placing Bill Clinton during Epstein's parties is never talked about).
Biden will forget to pick a running mate and the DNC just can't support any of the candidates because they're equally controversial and unliked.
Biden needs a strong women, but Democrats won't warrant the first female vice-president or president to be a Republican.
If Biden wants to GUARANTEE a win: Nikki Haley. But if he keeps putting out outright racist and misogynist messages, he will probably lose.

JW's and the National Anthem/Flag
by Anony Mous inone thing we were always taught in the past is how we should sit down and pray (kneel) to jehoober whenever we were at an event where they played the national anthem.
we had to actively disrespect the flag and anthem and be no part of the world, because we were our own country with jesus as king.. given kneeling/sitting for the national anthem is now the favorite pastime of the far-left and if you do so, you get associated with democrats, how do jehovah's witnesses now 'become no part of this world' when they have to disrespect the flag?.

@FedUpJW: Haha, that is funny. But even that would get you associated with BLM/Antifa nowadays. My question was more, as both action, inaction and reaction get you associated with a particular political group (if you participate you're a right-winger, if you don't, you're a left-winger, if you react you're a communist, what's a JW to do. We need more noo light on this issue!

BOE Update! (as of 2020-07-31)
by Atlantis inbody of elder letters, announcements, and so forth will be next to "none" unless more elders decide to contact us and help out.. atlantis has lost three elders in the past two years.
two elders were disfellowshipped, and one disassociated and walk away a month ago.. when this happens receiving confidential documents is severed.
the last announcement we received was 2020-07-23. i was not about to send out a childish letter on "mold" in the kingdom halls.. there are people out there out of work and concerned about what they will eat tomorrow, and the watchtower is concerned with mold!.

@Atlantis: Good job all this time, on one hand, I'm sad the fun is over, on the other hand, I'm glad there are fewer and fewer elders around. Having elders DF'ed, DA'ed or walking away is a GOOD thing in the end.

I was wondering how this would play out in JW land.
by wolverines ini have a niece who is trying to get pregnant.
she was telling me her husband had to go to a room with porn in it and masturbate into a cup to get tested.
i never thought of this before but but how would a jw handle this.

IVF in general is looked poorly upon, because it involves basically aborting multiple (typically around 5-12) viable sometimes fertilized eggs.
According to JW life begins at "conception, when the ovum, or egg cell, of the woman is fertilized by a sperm cell of the man" (G 7/2009)".
Although they leave it up to the conscience what to do with fertilized eggs: https://www.jw.org/en/library/magazines/w20121215/view-of-in-vitro-fertilization/ which is (as usual) wholly inconsistent with their stance on abortion.
As far as the masturbation, if you masturbate, you become gay (Watchtower May 15 1970 p. 315; Watchtower 1976 Feb 15 pp. 122–123) which then would obviate the need for children.
As far as the issue in regards masturbation and other real problems in the real world which is quite an interesting read: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/49755809_Issues_arising_during_the_treatment_of_Jehovah's_Witnesses_by_in_vitro_fertilisation

Guns...Are You For or Against Legally Owning Them?
by minimus inthere is a surge going on of people buying guns, especially first time buyers.
with talk of police defunding and rioting in the neighborhoods, some people want to protect themselves.. do you support owning and using a gun if needed?.

When people compare the UK to the US with absolute numbers, they forget that the UK is just one state (although soon to be liberated) in the EU.
So you really have to compare something equally sized and populated such as Minnesota (D) or Utah (R) or London to Chicago or LA, not NYC or compare the entire EU to the US.
Same goes with COVID and other comparisons. Then there's also the classification problems, the US still counts suicide as murder and suicide is included in gun deaths, in Europe suicide and consensual murder is largely legal and not counted. Hell, both the Netherlands and the UK won't count a murder if there is no-one reporting the murder to the police, they'll pick up the body and wait to count until there is someone willing to stake a legal claim.
When looking at true comparisons, Europe is about as safe as Detroit when it comes to violent crime, and no sane American wants to live in Detroit.

Just wanting confirmation on an unofficial JW experience

Zoom has more than 12M paying customers and 300M free subscribers. A few thousand JW’s logging onto their free version once a week does not even tick on their radar, especially since they have emphatically stated they don’t want the congregations to pay for these services. -

Black people attacking whites in the US
by JoenB75 ini see a lot of shocking videos on social media about gangs of blacks attacking white people.
how big is the problem really and what is done about it?.
-

Anony Mous
The question was: black people attacking whites is on the rise
there are 3 explanations:
- more black people robbing whites which would imply the reduced enforcement (because BLM protests) is increasing crime - but criminals don’t racially profile nor are the attacks about robbing people
- black people are increasingly racist (which is directly in line with BLM ideology)
- political groups are directly attacking those that do not agree with them (again, BLM is the only ideology that does encourage this)
Your statement that BLM is just white people is false, select protestor pictures are indeed mixed groups, the videos and pictures of the protests devolving into looting show large groups of black people doing the looting with few white snowflakes mixed in.
I agree with you that the majority of black people do NOT agree with BLM and it is sponsored by ActBlue and other Democrat groups with ties to Soros, but I did not tie ALL black people to BLM, the subgroups doing the increased attacks are sponsored and instigated by BLM, simplified BLM members are the ones doing the attacking, my contention is that black people are being used by BLM to do these acts of violence. There are also examples of white membered BLM groups attacking but that is less of an occurrence.
As to your other point, I agree, BLM does not just consist out of black people, AOC and Julian Castro are members too, you just tied solely black people to BLM by saying they are Hispanic thus cannot be part of BLM. BLM is a movement, it is consisting of the extreme-left wing of the Democratic Party (Biden, AOC, Castro, ...) promoting a specific left-wing ideology through violence.
It’s basically a parallel to the Hitlerjugend of the Nazi party, they were likewise not solely white Germans, they were likewise promoting an ideology and they were likewise not representative of ALL white Germans. However, we do still condemn ANY German, including Jews that went along with the ideology of the party back for other reasons than Jew-hatred then for their actions and inactions.
