You should send me some money and I will hook you up with a multi millionaire brother from Nigeria who just needs access to an American bank account to move his fortune. The only detail is that the account most hold at least 10,000 dollars to make a multi millionaire deposit.

Hurry

pm me for details. Don't let this opportunity slip away.

Go now.

Worshipping a body of eight magical wizards in New York City by yourself is no way to spend your life. You need to find someone dumber than a bag of hammers to share it with.

JW Vaccine mandate: The contrast between voices of reason and confusion

by ukpimo in

i was reading an intriguing post on the exjw reddit, a forum i do not with to sign up for, as i'm not interested in the internal politics of reddit.

another post counteracted this one, driven by the "conspiracy theory" card.

I just love how people who can't understand how a basic grade eight level cohort study works suddenly know all the complexities of cardiac medicine of cellular biology.

To me it was just vaccine vs non-vaccine, follow for a period of time and see how many people die or get hospitalized with covid and then adjust for cases per 100,000.

So you believe the vaccines are harmful. Again, study all cause morality, separate by age group and vaccine status and adjust per cases per 100,000 and if there is an uptick in heart attacks, cancers, strokes.

No, it can't actually be this simple.

in 2021. I was one of the first people I knew who rolled up their sleeves and got the shot. I knew two people in their 40s who died from Covid and a whole ton of people that are really really sick from it. I didn’t really see how a controlled exposure to a deadly pathogen could be any worse than an uncontrolled exposure, but I was actually pretty good in science in high school school. Then the data to start the role in from simple cohort studies and there was a significant difference in in hospitalizations, ICU admissions, and death from being vaccinated versus unvaccinated.

That being said, I even found the vaccine passports, a little little weird. I guess in a once in a century public health crisis, you have to do what you have to do, but I was never comfortable with it. I’m just glad it’s not novel to humanity anymore in life has gone on..

Do you realize that in human nature that one out of every hundred people is either a psychopath , sociopath or dark empath?

When you see some study on some right wing algorithm by some Lonewolf doctor that claims to be discredit the entire medical community, do you ever explore the fact that instead of being a brave and noble whistleblower that that person might actually be an attention seeking narcissist?

I can’t believe people who are raised in a cult aren’t a little more receptive to this idea.

Ukraine - Nato - US crisis

by mikeflood in

don't understand....but this crisis in ukraine seems to be getting out of control....i mean, everybody knows how to start a war..... by the way, as always, people at the borg are having a field day.....

Riley

the reason for the war is that the Russian people are in demographic collapse. They’ve had more deaths each year than live births since the 90s. The only chance they have a remaining somewhat of a world power is to Gang press the Ukrainians and the Bella Russians into Russia. This is the last generation they will have any kind of manpower to fight a war like this.

as for the Ukrainian corruption accusations, you think if they were all true that the Soviet military could’ve just bribed the Ukrainian Army into surrendering. It kind of blows all your theories all this shit Wen three years into this. These people are just fighting tooth and nail to survive.

When I was in , I really grew to dislike eschatology. Once I realized, it was nothing but opinion that really required leaps and assumptions, it really didn't mean much to me. Considering the WTS really build core theology around it, I couldn't do it anymore.

Then Covid hit and I realized that evangelical Christians are generally assholes too. Everyone was a civil rights expert, or scientist or vaccines were the mark of the beast................it was all just as stupid as what I just came from. Trump just cut off foreign aid for poor nations today. This is who we got behind for FFS.

The scary thing for me is the only religious people I found were great people are Mormons. Not discounting the book of Mormon is a work of fiction.

I have no idea what I believe anymore.

New Watchtower Study: Apostates and Red Balloons 🎈

by raymond frantz in

https://youtu.be/gt0cuez3emy?si=wur7afqwryddqgnt.

the new watchtower study edition is out and i have a bone to pick with the watchtower with paragraph 14 from study article 14. there we read: "we want to help clear jehovah’s name of all reproach.

consider this scenario: you have a close friend who is kind, generous, and forgiving.

Riley

How old were you when you realized it was nothing but the unique dogmas and legalisms of the WTS, without a lick of bible in it.
