How long did people worship Zeus? Was it longer than Christianity's 2000 years?

how long did people worship zeus?

was it longer than christianity's 2000 years?.

most answers say this but they do vary..

Rocketman123

My question;
How long will people continue to believe that Jesus will one day come riding in a white horse to render judgment on the whole world?

Christianity spread and was embraced for such a long time not just about the incoming day of judgment but also because of its core principles of love and respect toward one another and the hope of relief of pain and suffering and finally death.

Kind of like teaching statues of social moral guidance, which at the end there was to be an award.

What other god in human history provided these humanistic values to humanity ?.

Derek Chauvin - The Right to a Fair Trial

by Simon in

anyone following the derek chauvin trial?.

if you are actually following it, not just listening to the media, you will likely realize that there is a huge gap between what is going on in court and what is being reported in the media.. if the trial was fair, i think he should be acquitted.

there is plenty of reasonable doubt about the cause of death (his dealer doesn't want to testify because he could be guilty of 3rd degree murder for selling him a fatal amount of fentanyl) and even doubt over whether the officer even had his knee on the guys neck or did anything counter to what they were meant to do as per policy.. but is it fair?

If the pressure on Floyd's neck area suppressed his breathing which just provoked the cardiac arrest with that amount of fentanyl in his system, it just looks really bad when a cop lays his knee across someone's neck when they its noted that the individual is assumed to be clinically dead.

Not a smart move either way , especially when its all being filmed live.

Was this a case of intentional murder , I dont think so.

Because his girlfriend said so in her testimony IN THE TRIAL!

umm... interesting

With the toxicology report in hand and her testimony, why wasn't that used to establish cause of the death ?

You would think the defense lawyers would use this during the trial.

If the toxicology report showed an enormous amount of fentanyl in his system which would caused a cardiac arrest as its known to, why didn't the involved doctors state so ?

Wt has its figurative knee on the shunned neck.

yes?.

Rocketman123

More like knee on the brain suppressing their intellect, knowledge and critical thinking abilities.

.......but that could be said to most high controlling religious cults.

All compartmentalized in fear and ignorance to serve the WTS and its top controlling leaders the GB men.

They call it spiritual growth, but is it really ?

The leaders of the WTS have been involved in the proliferation of sin and apostasy running their publishing organization ?

I wonder if the circumstances would have come out differently if there wasn't pedestrians on the side shouting and taunting Chauvin and the other police ???

Sorry I'm a bit of a rational thinker.

I Feel Bad For The Police

by minimus in

i think cops are getting a bum rap.

are there some cops who shouldn’t be cops?

are some over eager?

Rocketman123

Sometimes cops justifiably get a bum rap for their mistakes and bad judgements while on duty, but unlike us non police workers when we make mistakes we usually dont cause a death of someone.

Its a tough job for only people who can be tough at times but also smart in their interaction with the public, they also have to have a semblance of human compassion, most do.

Floyd appears to be whacked up on drugs during the arrest , perhaps two different drugs fighting against one another.

The toxicology report showed that as well.

I dont understand why that wasn't put into consideration to him going into cardiac arrest. ???

The elevated heart rate during the struggling arrest and then the sudden suppression to his breathing capability by Derek Chauvin's knee against his neck, combined with a fair amount of drugs in his system most likely caused the cardiac arrest to occur.

you can't confirm whether or not someone has drugs in their system by watching a video. A qualified medical person needs to do a blood test.

and that was done and there were traces of fentanyl in his system.

All the doctors who reviewed and analyzed Floyd's body agreed that cause of death was asphyxiation which was most likely enhanced by drugs in his system and a unhealthy heart.

Covid Virus and serving where the need is greater

by eyeslice in

i get the impression that many of those serving where 'the need is greater' have had to return to their home countries due to the current covid pandemic.. just over a year back the society was pushing people to go to places like india; not the easiest places to get to grips with at the best of times.

now i see that the covid pandemic is pretty much out of control in india.

it seems to me that 'needs greaters' were the watchtowers way of getting missionaries on the cheap.

What Slim said ..

and they are looking more for good actors for their up and coming video presentations.

I wouldn't be surprised if they encouraged Gilead brothers and sisters to take acting lessens.

The WTS/JWS has a working business model in action and it has been notably revised in recent years $$$

I wonder if they will have the JWorg. video presentation Academy awards every year ?

Stay tuned folks

I would be willing to bet that if Floyd was forced into the back of the squad car, he would have just died there. It was an OD.

He wasn't strung out high when the arrest took place, that can be confirmed by the video, so why do you say he would have OD'd in the back the police car ?

He was cognitively fluent during the arrest from the start.

Someone who is high on fentanyl doesn't act like that.

Nonsensical

Making stuff up as it suits you doesn't present intellectual honesty.
