Last Week's Watchtower had something that made people start questioning things?
by silentbuddha ini just got a call from a friend who said that something in last weeks watchtower caused a number of people in various congregations to start questioning things, and several long time elders left.
i am totally out of the loop but i do read things here and i heard of no such thing.. something to the effect that jw's and governing boobies are not inspired or something along those lines?.

Escaping from the YHWH/JESUS prison
by fulltimestudent ina poster recently inferred that i was never a jw, but was only on this site to spread a 'political' dogma.
not true!.
anyway, cleaning up some old files this morning, i found an old 'story of life' post that i made (i think) on another xjw site.

What is totally totally totally amazing is that about 5 years ago I made a sim solar post on another site about a song that made me realize it was time to go...
reading your post made me feel emotions I have not felt since that period. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Columbus Circle monument could be next statue to go
by freemindfade inchristopher columbus could be next on the monuments chopping block.. the 76-foot structure honoring the explorer at columbus circle should be among the statues reviewed by the city for potential purging, city council speaker melissa mark-viverito said on monday.. http://nypost.com/2017/08/21/columbus-circle-monument-could-be-next-statue-to-go/.
if this goes on, these people are just validating what the orange one said, where will it stop?
how will people 200 years from now look back on us?

Redvip2000..... u just tugged up. Your comment demonstrates that you can think and reason instead of being dogmatic about a point. This means the 5 bros will now forsake you.

That didn't work. SO I am hoping you can help me out. I am supposing you do not want to reveal your true self until it is apparent the boss will agree. That or you plan to try to explain it in a more all inclusive fashion. Kodos though, it is fairly witty.

"They should put a small picture of General Lee on the back of the dollar notes. That would save us a bundle in wellfare money!"

Hollywood messed up another one
by hothabanero ini am a big superhero fan and was looking forward to "the defenders".
the first two episodes are great but then ... liberalism happens.
one of the heroes (luke cage, big black guy) goes on this crazy rant, like a liberals wet dream of the bravehearth speech.

"Why can't we just have entertainment without turning it into a platform to cram their deeply unpopular political views down our throats?" -- hothabanero
So you are mad that the people who OWN the rights to these cartoons and comic books do what they want to with them especially if they even try to recreate the original scenes? Seems weird.
Please provide an example of the type of show that currently possesses the traits you hunger for.

I never said we should forget about it... did I?
Why you have "white man bad" in quotes is beyond me because I never said that. Putting it in quotes like that gives the appearance that I did. Maybe we should start using APA style on this forum so when accusations are made there is some form of reference so that we know ideas are not being pulled out of thin air.
I am nowhere near a liberal. Picking and choosing principles is what intelligent people do when they realize that the principles that they hold are wrong / outdated / damaging etc... I am sure most people here (yourself as well as I included) that were link to incoherent JW babble. We changed those principles.
Who is picking on white people in general? THose who promoted slavery should be blamed for it. As well as those who supported and implemented Jim Crow should be blamed for their roles in it. Those who created structures following Jim Crow and even after the civil rights amendment should be blamed for what they did.
Which leftist mindset in particular. You are lumping all leftists into the exact same mindset and that is ridiculous. So if you have Republicans in the south TODAY that are involved in racial gerrymandering in the Southern states and they get called out for it, you think the logical response is something along the lines of, "well the democrats did this stuff first so don't point a finger at republicans".
I think the root of the anger and arguments from a number of the posters on this board is because the majority of the vitriol from the left is targetted at concepts, policies, and institutions that were created or benefitted WHITE MEN, and therefore much of this is taken as a personal attack.
