Kids Without Rules

by minimus in

jw
friends

i see a lot of kids that rarely get discipline.

they are allowed to do whatever they want and if someone says something to them they don’t want to hear, they blow them off, ignore them or engage in disrespectful talk.. what’s wrong with today’s parents??

they are producing a generation of entitled brats!.

JimmyYoung

This is not new. Spock put out his book in the 60s that was against discipline.

Why do Jehovah`s Witnesses Shun fellow believers When God and Jesus never shunned even Satan ?

by smiddy3 in

scholars generally agree that it was written between the 7th and 4th centuries bce, with the 6th century bce as the most likely period for various reasons.

the book of job .. so according to jw`s about 6,000 years ago satan rebelled against jehovah god ,did jehovah disown him there and then shunning him ?.

apparently not as we can read from the book of job centuries later that satan could still come and go freely before the throne of jehovah in heaven .job 1: 6. and apparently he could still do this for centuries later ,that is coming to and fro before jehovah because according to the jw religion he wasn`t cast out of heaven for another 2,000 years until the 20th century .. now in the case of jesus much of what is said about jehovah and satan also applies to jesus before he came to earth.. but even when he was on earth he didn`t shun satan either in fact he allowed satan to lead him around according to the bible account.luke 4:13 so the devil having concluded all the temptations retired from him until another convenient time .so it wasn`t jesus calling the shots here it was satan .. mark 1: 13 he ,jesus, also shared 40 days in the wilderness with satan letting him tempt him .. so their was no way either jehovah or jesus ever shunned satan the devil according to the bible writings.. and when jesus ascended to heaven after his sacrifice he along with his father jehovah still had association with satan the devil until he was cast out of heaven 2,000 years later ,according to the jw`s..

Its not a biblical thing its a control thing. Without it many would fade out and not worry about it.

by Brainfloss in

my sister sent me this text a few minutes ago.

what does she know about my relationship with jehovah?

it was followed up by a bunch of links to jw org problem is dialog is not possible her side is the only one to be heard.

JimmyYoung

She is putting conditions on her love. I would tell her that and that I was never going to be involved with the cult again.

Interesting documentary on oil and renewables.

by JimmyYoung in

I knew the Green energy was a myth to some extent, but not to this extent. All so called green energy uses more fossil fuel than if they just used coal or NG direct. Wind and solar are not that efficient and there has to be a fossil electric plant idling to be turned on at night and during low sun or to just run with it to make up the short fall. I knew that Photo Voltaic was very inefficient. The doc said about 4 to 8 percent efficient. I did not know that the high efficient PV panels that NASA uses are 100 bucks a square inch. I also knew that wind generators are only good for about 20 years and that they use a lot of fossil fuel to produce. The blades are made of wood and fiberglass and get damaged relatively easily from hitting dust and particles at over 100 MPH as they turn. I did not know that the sun reflectors in the desert used Natural Gas to start up in the AM. The biggest thing I did not know is when places like Germany said they are 40 to 80 percent on renewable energy that wind and solar is only a small few percent of that and the biggest is the Bio fuel which is burning trees, wood , garbage, tires ect. This is not really a renewable but has been classified as such. Also the money from the Koch Brothers to the Sierra club and other so called green movements shows its all a scam for the low IQ to buy into.

Rush made the case today for Abiotic oil

by JimmyYoung in

i did a paper on this for college years ago.

the russian are the ones pushing the idea of this limitless oil source deep in the earths core.

there is so far no evidence proving it.

JimmyYoung

STADD, Oil dropping in price does exactly the opposite of what you are wanting. When gas is 95 cents a gallon people drive big trucks and cars and renewable crashes because it is way to expensive over cheap oil. This if it lasts will crush Tesla and other electric car company's. Also where the heck do you think that electric grid to power the over priced Tesla POS cars comes from? Natural Gas and Coal. Wind and solar can not make up for what fossil fuel delivers. There will never be a Jet that can actually do work powered by a battery. Not going to happen. No one except the nut bar hippies and new age nuts will live in a grass hut and peddle a bike hooked to a generator to have light. People want to drive and not have to wait hours to get a charge in their car. Big tucks and trains and ships of cargo are never going to be powered by electric. I know that trains are electric but that electric is powered by Diesel engines on board. No cargo ship is gong to run on a battery or wind. We as a world are not gong to get off oil in your life time. Most likely not in a few generations and that is if they come up with new technology that can replace it. There is nothing on the horizon yet. Sorry but it aint going to happen. Tesla stock is all smoke and mirrors. People who are idiots and traders staying with it as long as its up are propping up a company that is not based in reality. Couple that with the fact that GM, BMW and VW and others are rolling out electric cars. Electric cars are only one small part of the fossil fuel situation. Factory's are not going to run on wind power, Solar is not efficient enough to do much. I am not against any of that but its not gong to stop the world from using oil. Oil and other fossil fuels are the only thing that is stable. Not to mention Fossil fuel is yummy and I love driving my vintage Firebird with a Rochester 4bbl carb and V8. I get more thumbs up waves and double takes than any POS Tesla on the road.

I did a paper on this for college years ago. The Russian are the ones pushing the idea of this limitless oil source deep in the earths core. There is so far no evidence proving it. Every attempt to prove this has ended in failure. So today Rush put it forth as fact. He misstates that oil did not come from a few T Rex dinos. But that is not what science says. This is like saying humans came from Monkeys. Not what evolution teaches. Oil is thought to come from the biological soup that created small animals that under millions of years of build up and pressure created what we call oil. The idea of limitless oil is not supported much outside Russia.

YOU are the Proof God exists!

by MuchCloserLook in

JimmyYoung

There is no proof god exists. None at all. You can say god exists but you have no proof. This is the idea of intelligent design disregards all the things that are not done well. The human eye is not designed well. Many other animals have much better designed eyes. This fits with evolution but not creation. Even if you jump the canyon of there being an intelligent designer that does not automatically mean that the god of the bible is the correct one. Hinduism, Islam, and any number of hundreds of religions and sub groups will all say they are the correct one. Or the Alien seeding hypothesis. If there was any real proof of a god people would not be pulling this crap out of their ass to try to show proof where there is none.

EVERY Religion has Hypocrites- even the TRUE One!

by MuchCloserLook in

so, if you expect to find 'saints' with halos, you will never find real christians.. after over 30 years of being a jw, there are many things about the org that disturb me- yet no one else even acknowledges the only true god, as jesus referred to him.. not a 'they' or 'them' ('trinity')- but him!and he has always had the name jehovah (yehovah in hebrew)- even though the koine greek had no version of it when the nt was written.. so among the many things real christians have to endure- is often each other!

.

JimmyYoung

There is no true god. You can not prove there is a god. There is not one whit of evidence for a god to exist. All anyone has is a feeling, they want to believe or get a tingle up the leg when they hear a story where the red sea parts. bla bla bla. If there was evidence or proof then one would not need faith. I know the sun exists I don't have faith it does I can see it feel it and take a picture of it every day. Faith is to believe in something with out evidence.

Who is considered more bizarre?

by incognito2014 in

jws or mormons.

from a public point of view not from people within the religion as that would be obvious.. examples of extreme beliefs or behaviour would be useful..

JimmyYoung

The JWs have a more mainstream view of religion with some very strange variances. The Mormons are way out there with their magic PJs and if you do as you are supposed to you get your own world to be god over, Magic hats and gold plates and many more things that are Bat crap cray. That said a man made of mud who was deceived by a woman made of the rib of the mud man who was in turn deceived by a talking snake to eat from a tree that dispenses knowledge is bat crap crazy all by itself but we are used that nonsense.
