  I'm Going To The Olympics!

  i can barely believe it.

  it's really a dream come true.. the culmination of years of training and hard work.. i'm going to the olympics and i'm going to win multiple gold medals.. i finally figured that if a man can identify as a woman and win a medal, then i can identify as a disabled woman, so i reckon i can absolutely clean up at the special olympics.. it's so liberating being woke..

  If society is getting worse, mental illness is increasing and people are losing the capacity to take responsibility for their actions, then something has to change.

  The common denominator here is access to dangerous weapons. Comparisons between gun deaths and traffic accidents is ridiculous. Transport is an essential human need. Vehicles are built to be as safe as possible and are used for many purposes. A gun is built to have 1 single purpose.

  Having said that, I'm personally not anti guns, however you can't have everything.

  If you claim that society is sick and has problems that can't be solved easily, then maybe there is no choice other than to limit gun ownership.

  "When I was in school in the late 60s and 70s, people had guns in the back of the truck window parked at the school. Schools had guns. In college people who were ROTC would carry a rifle around on Campus. But there was little of this insane stuff going on. Why is that? Because the left has degraded our culture. Pushing transgender as normal, that you don't need a father to help raise the child, that two moms are a good thing, that black culture is not full of violence, misogynistic and glorifies hood rats and gang bangers. That violent video games and seeing at the click of a button any kind of rape, murder or violence as much as you want on the internet. Lets be clear, culture has taken a radical downward spiral over the last 40 years."

  Growing up in rural Australia in the 70's and 80's, we had 3 guns in our house, and we werent even a shooting/ hunting family. Nearly every family I knew had a gun or 2 in the house. You can live in a fantasy world about how life was good in the old days but there were a lot of gun related injuries. It wasnt because there were transgender gangs roaming the streets, or video games rotting kids brains but because guns are dangerous - period. They are designed to be dangerous. To pretend otherwise is delusional.

  Citing John Lott about gun control is like asking Tony Morris 3 to present an honest critique of the jw's.

  TonusOH:

  "We should increase the penalties for illegal gun ownership dramatically as one step

  we know that hundreds of thousands of people die every year in auto accidents, with millions more injured, some seriously. We drive anyway. We also keep working to make cars safer and drivers smarter and more responsible."

  Have you ever lived in another country, or visited a country that has strict gun controls so you can get a different perspective?

  Your regular school shootings/ mass shootings make news headlines around the world. The rest of the world has trouble comprehending how and why it's allowed to continue.

  'Guns are great, everyone should have the right to own as many they like.'

  This statement would make sense if there was no mental illness, or nobody ever lost their temper, or got jealous.

  America has 120 guns per 100 people. It ranks second in gun related violence behind central american countries.

  From 2013 - 2021, America averaged 87 school shootings per year.
  

  Some Americans think this is normal and good.

  Jesus is Michael the Archangel

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  only jesus has the power and authority to defeat satan and kick him out of heaven:.

  “now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our god and the authority of his christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our god.”.

  Fisherman:

  "But that is how we see it as it seems to us. It is what is is and things are the way they are. We can logically try to find logical reasons for why but we can’t know for sure like the identity of Jesus is Michael is a conclusion. It is not outright defined in the Bible."

  I've said this before - this world and everything in it only begins to make sense when you have the courage to accept God does not exist.

  Some Jw's are the worst employees

  by Foolednomore in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i found a company and employed an elder as an underwriter and two ms as sales and marketing.

  anyway, this elder will delegate his work to the ms in sales and marketing, so he can go home early.

  he knew when he got started that this would be a 10 hour a day job with some saturday.

  I have been an employee, a workmate and an employer of jws over the years.

  Most are ok, but there was definitely an air of entitlement amongst the pioneers.

  Start of the Great Tribulation will be announced soon

  by joey jojo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at the 2021 annual meeting, samuel herd revealed new light and claimed the anointed will all have passed away before armageddon.

  it has since been revealed that while they will die before armageddon, there will be some anointed still around that will witness the start of the great tribulation.. so the question is, how many years until the existing members of the governing body have passed away?.

  im not a doctor, but based on their age and various stages of obesity, im thinking 10- 15 years- give or take, sounds about right.. with that in mind, the great tribulation could be announced any day.. the new understanding has now freed the org from the burden of having to identify a particular generation in relation to the date of armageddon.

  As Simon said, the maths just doesn't work. I remember posting about this when I still thought it mattered; https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/14945/do-jws-still-believe-wt-version-144000"

  No, the maths for the 144000 doesn't work.

  This new understanding allows for GB to declare the number of anointed is now sealed.

  “According to the GB, the only anointed that really count are themselves, all the rest are irrelevant.”

  No, they won’t be irrelevant when the GB needs them to count.

  Have you noticed how the helpers of the “other sheep” can suddenly feel a heavenly calling when they get within sniffing distance of the GB .

  If they want to , they can maintain this for years...... or if not just change it ."

  
  

  With the new understanding they have removed the millstone of the generation teaching from around their neck.

  They no longer need to have anyone from a particular generation still alive when armageddon occurs. They have never said this before.

  The overlapping generations understanding is now irrelevant. The anointed dying BEFORE armageddon changes everything.

  I see what you are saying. Problem is that the numbers of annointed keeps growing every year."

  I thought about that, but the GB made it clear a long time ago that they dont maintain a network of anointed to reveal doctrine. I think it was a talk by Geoffrey Jackson.

  According to the GB, the only anointed that really count are themselves, all the rest are irrelevant.
