This world, and everything in it, only begins to make sense when you have the courage to accept that God does not exist.

Fisherman:
"All they had was a knife and cutting the cartoid artery with a sharp knife rendered the animal unconscious before it was aware of it as it bled to death. That was the most humane method at that time."
Animals dont become unconscious as soon as their throat is cut. It takes a while for them to die and they are in distress the whole time. A blow to the head to instantly kill it first would be more humane.
The 'captive bolt' method used in non-religious meat processing plants these days does not stun the animal- it kills it outright, and then the throat is cut.

In most western meat processing facilities, as far as I know, the animal is killed and then instantly has its throat cut to bleed it. Kosher and muslim cut the throat first and allow the animal to bleed to death. It's hard to watch and just another legacy of an ancient book that causes pointless suffering.

Where will the war in Ukraine lead to?
by Kosonen inthere has been comments in the news recently that the war in ukraine could be the beginning to the world war three.. i would not be surprised if it is.
.
the bible says a time will come when the peace will be taken from the earth.. revelation 6:4 another came out, a fiery-colored horse, and it was granted to the one seated on it to take peace away from the earth so that they should slaughter one another, and he was given a great sword.. have you heard what possibly this war in ukraine could lead to?.

Fear of NATO expansion seems to be the main reason behind it. From Putins point of view, that seems understandable. What isnt understandable is why there is a need to drop bombs on apartment buildings.
There has been, and will continue to be a brain drain from Russia, and now , because of Russias actions, if they take over Ukraine, anyone with a brain will already be on their way to a safer European country which will benefit from Russias loss.
Could it escalate? A result of strangling Russias economy could be retaliation against the west, or Russia might accidently drop a bomb on a NATO country. At the moment the west seems the safest way to deal with it is to allow it to run its course as long as it is contained.

Awakes says playing Chess is evil not for Witnesses!
by Witness 007 inawake 73 3/23 p.12 "the spirit of compatition between players can lead to unpleasant circumstances...in some homes tensions linger longer then checkmate.
chess is a game of war a play substitute for the art of war...danger of stirring up compatiton and hostility to one another something the bible warns christians to avoid.
what effect does playing chess have on you is it wholesome?

So surprising to read that.
It doesn't sound like the org to try and stifle an enjoyable pastime that involves strategy and creativity. 🙄

Are They Letting the Organization Go?

There is an ex jw guy on YouTube that recently did a video about the new film set the org is building in Australia, costing millions.
They are recreating the feel of architecture in Jesus's time and he made a really good point about how much time and effort they are going to getting a stone wall of a building historically accurate, yet they simply aren't interested in the importance of historical accuracy of bible history or events.
Ask too many questions about the actual bible, and you are gone.

"But invading a country unprovoked in this manner is crossing a line. Same if China invades Taiwan."
Same as US and allies invading Iraq, looking for imaginary weapons of mass destruction?
