The violent "My book of bible stories" not for kids!

by Witness 007 in

i once left a copy with the kids of my return visit.

the next time i came she returned it to me saying it was discusting and not something kids should be reading.

i was shocked since i learnt to read using this book.

The Bible itself is a disgustingly violent book but Watchtower illustrates this violence in such vivid detail... and then the Branch has the audacity to try to police what people watch on television or what video games they play.

Perhaps a bit off topic, and I may have mentioned this before; Prior to becoming FedUp I was in a serve us car group when the discussion turned to how JW's should avoid violent movies, TV, and books at all costs.

I jumped in to the conversation and recounted how I was reading a book that was full of stories about murder, incest, adultery, drunkenness, burning children alive and so forth. There was much chastisement and counsel about how I should quit reading anything that was that Satanically violent! So I "innocently" asked, "You mean I must quit reading The Bible?"

The Cancel Culture Is Alive And Well

if you don’t support certain ideas or beliefs, you may find yourself on the losing end in business, money matters, and community.

curt schilling, a former red sox player who is conservative today reported how his insurance company suddenly dropped him even though he was an excellent consumer with them because of his “ views”.

he was marked by those in charge and evidently was told by the rep he knew that they didn’t like his political views.

This is getting bad. No wonder some people are losing it and causing riots and insurrection.

And it is going to get worse, much worse. Over 74 million (74,000,000) people voted for Trump. I suspect many, like me, did not and do not think he is the kind of person we would choose for our circle of close friends. He did get things done that were good for the country though. That is a fact, no matter how those who insanely hate him try to spin the numbers.

Those over 74,000,000 people are not going to just lay down and quietly take the treatment the left is intent on dishing out.

The left needs to recognize the fact that the right (if they actually grow some cajones) is perfectly capable of tossing the s--t the left was throwing for the last four years right back in their faces, with interest!

Hysteria & Final Thoughts

by Sea Breeze in

every republican president ever elected starting with reagan generated hysteria in the news media.

they belittled, cajoled, ridiculed, mocked and resisted the highest elected leader in the land in an attempt to overturn the will of the people.

reagan.

I am wondering how soon marital law will be declared and people start getting arrested for conspiracy, fraud and treason.

The left, in the U.S., is already promoting that idea. Once they get into office it will just be a matter of time before people begin to feel the wrath of the left.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., said that some Republican lawmakers who are refusing to accept Joe Biden as president-elect "are bordering on sedition and treason."

Democratic lawmakers who've served in the US military condemned their Republican colleagues and President Donald Trump as "treasonous."

New Jersey representative Bill Pascrell has urged House speaker Nancy Pelosi to bar 126 GOP members from taking their seats, claiming that their support for President Trump made them 'traitors' who had violated the Constitution.

The current blatant censorship of conservative ideas and speech will pale in comparison to what we WILL see in the next couple years. Already "news" sites online have disabled comment sections on any story that might prompt comments not in line with the leftist agenda.

The only thing good coming out of it I see will be when those who mistakenly think they will be immune to the fury of the elites are targeted and then begin to whine about, "NOT FAIR!"

one righteous minded little black lady

She ain't righteous minded. . .she ain't "little". . .and she sure as Hell ain't no lady! Well one out of four ain't bad I guess!

But go ahead with your name calling if it makes you feel better about yourself!

Should Difference of Opinion Be Squelched On Sites Such As FB or Twitter?

i think that for the most part, dissenting views should be allowed to exist because of free speech principles.

one person may strongly feel that something is true while someone else may present “facts” that support the opposing view.

when that is the case, healthy discussion is mostly productive.

FedUpJW

What makes anyone thing that they and their family can't be cancelled from all internet access and basic services.

The belief that somehow "going along to get along" is the answer. The belief that one can negotiate from a position of weakness or servitude. The same mentality that allows someone to build a home on the banks of a river, and then whine when the river floods and they lose their home.

IDK. I guess I will have to ask twatter and fakebook if differences of opinion should be allowed on "social" media platforms.

Seriously though, as long as it isn't overly illegal opinions, think of some of the lefts calls for Trump to be punched in the face or many other video clips of overt calls to violence from the left, then no there should be no stifling of dissenting speech.

Prediction: What Will Happen To Trump Now That Biden Will Be President?

i think he will have to deal with the attorney general of new york amongst other things.

i do think he will not simply go away quietly ..

FedUpJW

@ minumus - You are correct. However, I would add that Peloski and company HATE THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA even more than they hate Trump. They hate self-reliant, patriotic, legal citizens who are much more difficult to control as much as they hate the U.S.A. Trump just got in the way of their agenda and slowed them down and showed them up for the haters and hypocrites they are. For that he will pay, and so will the average citizen of the U.S. and the ripple effect will go even wider. Anyone who does not subscribe to their agenda will be censored, ridiculed, shut down, marginalized, and banned from public expression of conservative ideals and opinions. IMO.

The problem was Trump wasn't looking as defaced as he needed to. That could not be allowed.

He should have put on his best "sad face" and went to the back row and sat all alone. Just trying to interject a little humor.

You are of course correct. And it was not Trump as such that the left was after. It was the successful, happy, employed, citizens who were not dependent on government hand-outs that the left hated; Trump was just in their way. I for one hope that Trump somehow comes back and causes them even more consternation.

Sorry, storming the doors of the Capitol building and rooting through desks in the Senate is not peaceful

Well, burning buildings, clubbing people with bats, stealing everything you can get your paws on, and attacking police is? They should have just carried some BLM/AnitFa banners, then it would be just fine whatever they did.

The live feed of today's joint session was interrupted about 20 minutes ago because Trump supporters have apparently stormed the Capitol building.

This is a quote from the host/owner of another blog site I frequent: There's some photographic evidence out there suggesting that some of the first to breach the building had previously been photographed committing violent acts for (surprise!) Antifa and BLM.

This is going to get pretty dicey IMO. The media will continue to stage events like this with BLM/AntiFa plants who will with full cooperation from LEO's now go after ALL conservatives even more violently than they did for the last four years. As Mr Limbaugh very accurately said, "They were after the American people, Trump just got in the way."
