here’s a cautionary tale for anyone counting on past ties with jehovah’s witnesses to dodge conscription: they’ll throw you under the bus faster than you can say “conscientious objector.” a man in ukraine learned this the hard way after refusing military service and hoping his old religious connections would save him.
spoiler alert—they didn’t.
They aren't exactly fighting for their country more like Blackrock and the big corporates that want Ukraine in a perpetual war with Russia. At this point I history the last thing I'd do is send my child to fight a dirty war that started from the West
I am of Ukrainian heritage. I am assure you that is absolute and total bullshit.

We have Ukrainian refuges were I have live. They are young families with children and as a father I get it. Love your children more than you hate your enemies. You can tell the young men are not cowards, it is just there kids need a father more than the army needs a soldier.
That said, I really don't give two shits about " conscientious objector " status. If you don't want to shoot a gun , the army has plenty of support jobs needed to be filled. If the WTS can't get behind the cause of Ukrainian freedom after what Russia to the WTS...........who can ?
all this political banter is exhausting, so i want to ask a question that has probably been asked before, so here it goes….
let’s try to keep this non-partisan - just give your opinion and why you think that way.. i’ll go first.
i think jws would generally lean to the right, but not by a whole lot.

I love your Libertarian nonsense. You can simultaneously blame the government for doing to much and not doing enough at the exact same time. It is the fault of the rich and the poor.
"Libertarians are like house cats: absolutely convinced of their fierce independence while utterly dependent on a system they don't appreciate or Understand "
I wish I knew who said that.

Jehovah Witnesses feel no social responsibility to help the poor or needly. Nor do they feel it is there role in helping people fighting for there freedom ( Ukraine ). They are poorly educated half-wits who partake in the adulterous idol worship of men. They feel to need to tell you how they feel about everything all the time and how there is a better world coming just around the corner. They hate gays, trans and women who have abortions.
Jehovah Witnesses are Republicans. Just look at the Right Leaning nonsense of this board by far.
so now they don’t want defib machines in khalls because it shines a light on the increasing blood clots from the shots that they said were safe.

It is weird about how statically Jehovah Witnesses are poorly educated half-wits because you could never tell with the Mensa material that posts here. Please put another sticker on your car. Only you know the truth.

I have an actual cardiologist in my family and literally they first thing they learned about Covid in 2020 was that people who survived a Covid infection were at a much higher risk of heart attacks and strokes post infection. This was pre-vaccine rollout.
The idea of blaming heart attacks and strokes on the vaccine isn't support by data separating cases by age and vaccination status cases per 100,000 either.
Spoiler alert- It is covid.
according to the next boe letter to be read at next week's midweek meetings in the united states,.
the theme of the convention for next year is.
pure worship.
The term " Pure Worship " just make my skin crawl. It is just hate filled dogmatic nonsense.
after attending my cousin’s jw wedding the other day - gosh it was intense.
it got me thinking.. i’m openly gay in the family and most definitely not a witness.
anyway, i was invited to the wedding and i went.
They wouldn’t attend. I am surprised they even acknowledge you even exist.
i didn’t get the covid vaccine, but i admit, i was scared as shit i made the wrong decision because there was so much confusion out there.
practically all my family and most of my friends took the vaccine because everyone was depending on those in charge to speak the truth.
now a lot of them are sick, and they can't figure out why.
Proudly happy ?
i was attending an evangelical church when the pandemic hit. My son had a nasty case of RSV and was hospitalized. I soon found myself competing for an oxygen tank and nurse with Jesus freaks and various tin foil hat nutters.
Proud ? It seems like a weird thing to be proud of.

I love how everything with lengthy posts and copy and paste jobs really fails to address basic measurables.
Hospital capacity
doctor and bed as per 100,000 people
iCU admissions , hospitalizations and covid deaths vaccinated vs unvaccinated.
All cause morality adjusted per 100,000 vaxxed vs unvaxxed.
People need to realize there opinions aren’t really worth much.
