rights seem to be everywhere nowadays.
say hello to someone in the wrong way and you've violated 101 of their human rights.
people imagine they have the right to all sorts of things - food, healthcare, housing, internet ... so many things are labelled basic rights and then you get onto their human rights - a favourite of the do-nothing bodies such as the un to declare.
Yes, George Carlin had this one right.
There is no such thing as "rights."
As he said, there is only "temporary privileges"
They can't be "rights" if they can be taken away.
Any government including this one can take them away at a drop of the hat....or presidential degree.
Oh, and lets not forget something called "Marshall law" what are your rights then?
Temporary privileges is what we are enjoying now......they will never be rights.
yes, the bible says it and the jehovah's witnesses believe it.
yet how did i get stuck with so long the mean, angry and jealous one?
the guy that had no problem killing off all the men, women children and even their farm animals because he was so pissed off most the time.

Have you ever wondered why there are no Amalekites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites today?
Yes. the happy god decided to wipe them all out.
That why if you notice I never use a large "G" as in God I always use a small g because of all the gods and lords this guy is one of the smallest in my book.
it seems, you can not research many of the older publications on society's web site anymore.
for the obvious reasons, that they don't want people to go back and read about all the false prophecies, changing guide lines (new light that became old light that became new light once again) and the just plain stupid stuff they have said over the years.
i not quit sure what publications they have blocked.
Thanks again Sparky you are amazing.
... unlike the rest of humanity, you looked forward to mondays because it was a day off from a meeting..
Your have no retirement because the "new system" was coming back in 1975 and you are now wearing dentures because Jehovah was going to fix your teeth in the new system that never came.

I not quit sure what publications they have blocked. So how far back can you research the Watchtower and Awake magazines now and what books have been blocked from view?
Any help would be much appreciated...... thank you.

in moderation, religious and spiritual practices can be great for a person’s life and mental well-being.
but religious fundamentalism—which refers to the belief in the absolute authority of a religious text or leaders—is almost never good for an individual.
I have very deeply looked into the endless destruction and genocide that religious ideologies and dogma have inflicted upon human beings. I have seen how damaged human souls are, how deeply depressive, meaningless, and prone to exploitation are the lives that many live. Religious dogma is at the root of this epidemic meaninglessness. Behind that is the thirst and cry for love. ----Mark Seelig
P.S. Dennett is brilliant!
since my last post i have spoke with my parents and told them i am no longer a believer.
i told them i just can't anymore.
here is my short story.
You have taken the red pill. You now see things the way they really are. There will be some losses ahead but some wonder gains too.

i learned from loyd evans video that because of his higher education (harvard graduate).
and talented carrier in wall street journal,harry peloyan was very quick to be invited to world hq.. according to his life story (w may 1 ,2006) , he was invited to whq in 1957.. i wonder when was he baptized?.
is it true that people who have higher education be used by the org more quickly than people who don’t?.
Ok.... I knew Harry when I was back in Bethel. He was highly intelligent. So much so that I think deep down inside he knew.....
He knew there was bull shit was a foot. However when you are that high up in the peeking order and have invested your whole life into that bull shit.....what can you do?
Trust in Jehovah to straighten it out....lol
oh, yes, the society even admitted they had a problem with their leaders.
a january 1, 1986 watch tower article (p. 13) stated: “shocking as it is, some who have been prominent in jehovah’s organization have succumbed to homosexuality and child molesting.” .
in the watchtower article, they didn’t disclose the rest.

In the Watchtower article, they
didn’t disclose the rest. What they should have said is this: “Shocking as it
is, some who have been prominent in Jehovah’s organization have succumbed to
homosexuality and child molesting and we have none NOTHING about it!” That is
the “shocking” part they conveniently left out of the article, not that people
could do this but that the leaders there would do nothing about it.
Since I no longer have any bound volumes and the society will only let you research back to the year 2000 can anyone here tell me, what the name of this study article was back in January 1 of 1986.
happy winter solstice to all!
.
the solstice this year will be extra special because it will be followed the next day by a full moon known as the cold moon, and depending on your location, you might be able to see the ursid meteor shower to boot.. enjoy!
Yes hard to believe the world was suppose to end six years ago today. On the other hand I guess the world was going to end back in 1975...so much for failed prophecies.lol
