Kamala:
the election is not what we voted for… uhm, yes it is
continue to fight … hey, that’s calling for insurrection
bringing people together … against you moron
I do not concede the fight … seriously, Kamala 2028?
i am non political and have never voted but nonetheless i have been keenly watching to see how the trump presidential race unfolds.
i believe that his involvement in propelling or influencing a leaning toward bible prophecy will unfold.
how, i can’t say but something tells me that this anomaly and outlier being trump is highly signifiant!

I'm wondering what prophecy do you see fulfilled in Trump? He was there 4 years ago... the end didn't come.
The question is whether there will be a peaceful transfer of power as we've seen being the tradition for hundreds of years, well before the establishment of the WTBTS prophecies on the end, and as we saw when Trump left office. Kamala still hasn't conceded, now more than 16 hours after the election was first called by Daily Wire Election HQ, then Fox, then NYT and over 6 hours later, MSNBC finally called it. She has to certify the vote, will she?
i don’t know a lot about james penton but i think he deserves a better thread than the one currently on offer.
james penton, who died recently, grew up in a jw family in canada and served as an elder.
unusually for a jw, he studied liberal arts at university and became a history professor.
Never heard of the guy, but looking into him, it amazes me that some people do hold on to some tenets of the JW faith, despite being anti-Christian in nature as if what they believed is valid, even if the people that taught them that believe are not. A weird cognitive dissonance, no-true Scotsman type approach to faith.

@dropoffyourknee, I think Harris was the closest they could get to a functional candidate, lets say they picked someone else, who would have the name recognition that has not already utterly failed in the past. Biden won purely on the "I'm not Trump and I'm practically dead and my agenda from the 1960s was pretty centrist" so people were expecting a "do nothing president" and he picked a slate of failed candidates that were likely to not accomplish anything (Harris, Buttigieg etc) which is perfectly fine, the economy was great, we were getting out of COVID, all he had to do was nothing, he then handed over his administration back to Obama's hand picked staff who got a home in DC just to whisper in the ear of Joe.
Do you think people want 8 more years of (Michelle) Obama? (Hillary) Clinton? Who would be a feasible candidate that's not to the left of what Biden made himself out to be? They threw out the Kennedy family name because he wasn't woke enough for them. Do you think Cheney would've pulled any votes?
Even if you get someone like Walz or Shapiro earlier, you end up allowing the opposition to pick that candidate apart, actually fact check them, actually investigate them, we didn't really get that with Harris-Walz, nobody knew until the debate that Walz was a frequent flyer to China, even after the debate nobody knew he has an entire second family he made with a CCP party official - talk about compromised. Give 2 more months and that becomes a huge scandal, even if the legacy media doesn't report on it, Shapiro has similar serious allegation skeletons in his closet, besides the fact he's a Jew which means Democrats in Michigan, Philadelphia and the West Coast won't turn out for him.

As I have said, the polls were obvious as to the win, but again underestimated Trump turnout. Trump wins not just the electoral college in a landslide but against all odds even the popular vote.
Sad that people think communism would be a better choice.

@peacefulpete: that is exactly what it is, it is not up to agencies to interpret law, that’s for the judges to overturn and the voters to vote up or down, judges should be involved in limiting the excesses of government, as we have seen with COVID, you cannot trust the government on what they claim to be science. Agencies are part of the executive and execute the law, not make it, they should not have the power to rule on what is science or good financial sense because they are ALWAYS wrong.
Under the Biden admin, the education and science says that women can be men and men can give birth. Agencies (the executive) cannot overturn the law or re-interpret it, that’s the cornerstone of constitutional democracy.

They are not new but they have changed under Biden allowing them to be a lot more permissive. We already know Biden doesn’t care about the constitutionality of his directives, the cancellation of student debt was declared illegal and unconstitutional and he repeated it twice after the first ruling. This is why people are so cagey, instead of going through Congress despite SCOTUS recently having said that this is unconstitutional when they ruled Chevron deference, he continues making sweeping directives.

Sad that people feel the need local militia to protect them (only in Trump-heavy districts) from both the left and the government.

AtlasIntel, one of the most accurate pollsters historically speaking has Trump up 0.5-5 points in all the battleground states. I think SlimboyFat, you are looking at the popular vote, she will win that 84/100 but she currently has a 36/100 chance of winning the electoral college based on the aggregate of polls and the fact she needs to win 6 of the 7 battleground states (Trump needs to win 1 or 2).
Currently 32% of Americans think the US is going in the right direction under Biden, if that is what you think, why would you vote for more of the same.
he will not pressure her to engage in sexual acts that make her feel uncomfortable, that are demeaning, or that bother her conscience..... the bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean.
a christian couple must make decisions that reflect their resolve to honor jehovah, to please each other, and to maintain a clean conscience.
generally speaking, a couple would not discuss with others this intimate aspect of their marriage..
As far as sex drive, the sex drive for younger women may be higher than some males, but as they mature other things become more important for females. Males will always have a high sex drive, biologically speaking they are looking to spread their genes as far and wide as possible to be successful; women though become vulnerable after successful coupling thus will want to attach themselves to a single person for protection, after which sexuality becomes a secondary concern, so high sexuality in men is dangerous to them.
This is of course not every individual, the Pareto principle applies though and on average men will have higher sex drives and the highest drive in male will be significantly more aggressive than the highest female, which will still be more aggressive than the average male.
I do think that is partially why we have invented a diversity in sexual practice, it can allow more intellectually stimulating practice without boring the male, thereby giving the female more chances to “keep” the male and if the fun does spread to other mates after reproduction, less likely to shoot the load in the right target so-to-speak.
