  so my jw father is sick.

  my mother uses the opportunity to try and preach to my 16 year old daughter.

  i simply told my mother to: "please refrain from trying to lure *my daughter* in with jehovah's witness questioning.

  "Do you pray to Jehovah?"

  Such an innocent sounding question but we all know its nothing more than a sales tactic, sadly.

  if jw wants to know the truth about the truth, what will you talk about first?

  A 'truth' that I read on this site is something I haven't forgotten. I wish I could remember who said it but I cant find the thread.

  Anyway, it went something like this:

  Although they would be shocked to hear it, JW's do not actually have any deep-seated, personal beliefs. Their beliefs - and therefore their 'truth', is subject to whatever the latest watchtower tells them it is.

  Allegheny Pyramid Desecrated

  sometime within the last 2 weeks, someone took a sledgehammer to the pyramid monument in allegheny.

  they stole the topstone, smashed the cross and crown emblem and removed the seal.. personally i'm surprised it lasted this long untouched.

  although through the years russell's grave has been vandalized, it was always repaired by the bible students..

  Is a news item like this likely to appear on JW.ORG news?

  I think the WT would be happy to see it gone.

  Something else they can deny as just a 'cute' relic from the past, like 80% of their teachings.

  Data dog, I appreciate your reply.

  I actually do have a problem with smokers and fat f#cks, as you call them, not taking care of their own health, for their sake and for others.

  Your choice of words is interesting in that you refer to a vaccination as propaganda. Some others might call it a medically sound, international, scientific consensus.

  Edited to add, it's no ones fault if they happen to catch covid, you are putting words in my mouth.

  My post was aimed at anti science, anti maskers, pandemic deniers that will post complete crap about their 'rights' and theories.

  When someone like that gets sick, should they refuse medical treatment, just to stand up for what they believe? Will they insist that their doctor leave his mask off, while performing life saving surgery to get them breathing again?

  No? That's what I thought.

  Fedupjw,

  You raise some valid, ethical points. That's why I asked the question.

  I was referring to balancing medical attention for anyone that needs treatment through no fault of their own, against someone who has sat back, with their tinfoil hat on, blaming 'the man' and spouting anti science rhetoric.

  Here's something else to consider-do you think anyone with cancer or HIV would refuse a vaccine if it were available?

  To anyone that wont get vaccinated, here is a simple question.

  If / when you catch covid, and, if you require treatment in a hospital, do you feel that you should have priority over say, a cancer patient, or someone who , through no fault of their own, needs a hospital bed?

  My opinion is that a person like that would be a bit like a drug addict, that, due to their utter selfishness, sucks medical resources and time away from genuinely sick people.

  The pfizer vaccine is doing its job in Israel according to this report. Its stopping severe covid cases and deaths and the unvaccinated are the ones more likely to be hospitalised.

  Whats happening in Israel is proabably whats going to happen everywhere else once vaccine rates approach high levels- the vaccinated are going to pass it onto people, who , for whatever reason arent vaccinated.

  There are a lot of different angles to consider before making a conclusion.
  

  FYI, I've never read anything Fauci has said.

  Vidqun, I posted in response to your link from the website NWO.....

  Like so many other websites pushing their agenda, they took SOME of the story and presented it as the WHOLE story.

  For example, data on covid cases or vaccinations from 3 or 4 months ago may tell a different story from today's data. The graph may look different, but they will not present the most up to date information because it ruins their story.

  Frankly, I'm surprised that anyone who participates on this website isn't used to filtering out that particular type of literary bias.

  Sorry, Vidqun, your 'facts' are myths and rumours that have been shared around the world for gullible people to share to even more gullible people.

  Dig deeper, your portrayal of Gibraltar is fiction. Look closer at the charts and read a lot more varied information from reputable sources. The link you posted is full of misleading comments.
