We are referencing those who are killing in mass murders . Most of those who have done this are deranged or mentally unbalanced

A lot of these mass murders are not mentally unbalance or derange, they are just bad people who like to do bad things. And they will use opportunities afforded them to just kill a bunch of people.Opportunities like availability of guns, war, secrecy and etc. A lot of these mass murders are intelligent, educated, family oriented, articulate, but they are just bad people.

"and yes someone can grab a knife but as already pointed out you can only kill one person at a time time with a knife"

Dating another Woke exJW or no?

by caves in

i find that the people here speak in a way i can understand because we have one thing in common if nothing else.

so my question is , would it be easier to date someone that has been a jw and woke up or not?.

i would love for someone to 'get it' without having to explain much.

There are no guarantees in this life that dating a former jw who is awake or not awake-or dating a never been a jw is going to work out. In the congregation I used to go to, there were people who were married to unbelievers for fifty years and seem to be happy, then there were jws who married jws and were divorced within a few years. And there were jws who had been married to jws for fifty years also and were happy. Then I was reading not to long ago that Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have never married but have lived together for over 35 years.

More than anything, I think it has to do with a person finally getting to a point where they learn how to love and treat another person. If both of them are there at that point, it will work no matter what the other person believes. That's just life.

One thing that you don't hear much in the news is when a legal register gun owner does go in and stop someone from carrying out their evil deeds even further.

Like this lady who is a registered license off duty police who because she carried is allowed to carry a gun in public was able to stop a man from killing possibly several women and children.

in other words, if you have a person in your family that is mentally unstable, and you leave a gun on top of the table and this person takes it and shoots 20 people, can you just say "well, the issue is that the person was mentally unstable"

If a person leaves a gun on top of the table, that person is mentally unstable or and idiot to begin with. I live in the USA, I need one more year to be able to purchase a gun, I've already taken several classes on gun ownership and one of the first things you learn is proper handling and storage of a gun.

You learn to Always treat any gun as if loaded and ready to fire ACCIDENTALLY.

A person who leaves a gun on the table is an idiot to begin with. you never leave a gun unattended.

Gun ownership, gun handling, gun storage is a serious thing.

How many Witnesses would drink the cool aid at a "Jonestown?"

by Witness 007 in

so my mum died from mild form of lukemia which can simply be treated with a blood transfusion each month.

to me this was a watchtower assisted suicide.

the liaison elder encouraged her to "stay strong" and said a prayer.

I don't think my mom would. She has a lot of cognitive dissonance. Plus me hammering at some of their lunacy. 😄

You just described perfectly, what I did with my parents. Little by little I kept hammering at the lunacy of the organization. My dad stepping down as an elder was the first step. My mom not pioneering was the second, and now, they don't go to the meetings.

Not sure how they really feel inside, but I know they wouldn't drink the kool aid.

Getting Remarried after a spouses death & then they are resurrected after Armageddon ?

by LOLS in

hi guys .

i was wondering about the above , if a jw is allowed to remarry if a spouse has died, then what happens when they are resurrected at armageddon, do u land up with two wives/husbands ,,,,,,, makes no sense to me & can the jw's be so dumb not to think about this or have i got it wrong ?

and i will not be asking my uber jw husband , don't have the energy.. thanks.

the New Testament writers came up with this spin* as a way of assuring First-Century Christian women that someday, they'd be "free".

If resurrected women are free then I call dibs on Abishag.

(1 Kings 1:3, 4) . . .And they went looking for a beautiful girl throughout all the territory of Israel, and finally found Ab′i·shag the Shu′nam·mite and then brought her in to the king.  And the girl was beautiful in the extreme. . .

I wonder how the resurrected would feel about that and how unjust and awkward would be to hear your neighbor having sex

Some people like to Watch- you know- like the angels in heaven watched the pretty women on earth. That's why God made lube.

People are going to be resurrected with perfect bodies. They will be resurrected by the billions naked. Jehovah taking away their desire won't matter because it didn't matter to the angels in heaven who were sexless and saw the beautiful women on earth before the flood and took wives, namely all whom they choose.

Billions of naked people with perfect boobies and muscular bodies. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS GOING TO HAPPEN!
