is most of the promotion of creationism, not just that by the wt, charlatanism?.
https://www.fullmoon.nu/sources.bak/chapter%2010/part%202/gish%20exposed.html [which has an article called "creationism: bad science or immoral pseudoscience?
- (an expose of creationist dr. duane gish)"] says the following.. 'a look at the "scientific" creationist movement and a close examination of the tactics of a well-known and influential creationist will reveal that the creation "science" movement gains much of its strength through the use of distortion and scientifically unethical tactics.. .... with the facts explained and the lawsuits won, scientists declared victory and returned to their labs and offices.
News flash there are a few Christians dotted around in other countries.
Seriously
Jane Goodall, (one of the Trimates aka Leaky's angels) is a devout Christian. The inability to reconcile Christianity with what has become a huge chunk of science is very much an American thing
episode 203 of netflix ... i am a killer looks at the murder of christopher chavez in texas.
christopher chavez was a 22 year old ministerial servant and a born-in son of an jw elder.
after a thursday night meeting and a quick bite to eat afterwards with friends at a local restaurant, he was kidnapped, taken to a gas station and forced to drive his killers around for hours while they were in the back seat.
Do you think the article is being fair in stating that the "pacifist leanings" of the Watchtower and his JW parenting played a significant role in his murder?
I think "pacifist leanings" is a fair and accurate way to describe it.
Although JW's do not embrace pacifism as a philosophy and are therefore not pacifists in the technical sense, there is a functional equivalency that makes it difficult to distinguish between the two.
This includes, (But is not limited to) not owning firearms for the purpose of self defense, not studying martial arts or allowing their children to, not serving in law enforcement, and not coming to the aid of a police officer even if you specifically directed to do so.
has this question ever been raised before by jehovah`s witnesses?
and what`s the significance, if any ?.
ALL genital mutilation of babies is barbaric and backward.
^^^This^^^
The procedure destroys a huge amount of nerve endings, which is not something most males would voluntarily submit to if given a choice.
Even were that not the case, the procedure is intensely painful for days afterwards, which can be measured via stress hormones in the blood
Anybody who would subject a male infant to this for aesthetic or religious reasons needs to do some soul searching.
have you seen this video about the covid vaccines?
have you got any views on the information?
i find it worrying at least.
He is a heart doctor and he is talking about heart problems and their causes, so how is his expertise not relevant?
His expertise is very relevant, but it's just not broad enough for the nature of the claim. It's one thing for a cardiologist to notice an uptick in myocarditis and suspect that a recent vaccination is the cause. But correlation is not causation and making a water tight case for the latter gets into other disciplines. That's why these articles are usually authored by several individuals from various fields
Again, I'm not saying he's wrong, but there is going to be some pushback.

The critique was written by someone who is not a heart doctor...
Mahotra is actually pretty far afield himself here. As the reviewer noted, he did not acknowledge, let alone attempt to explain studies contrary to his interpretation.
That is sloppy. and I've very surprised it got past peer review.
Please understand, this does not automatically make him wrong, but it does cast a shadow over his interpretation(s).

A critique of the sloppy methodology can be found here:
why is this a double post ?
just curious as i don`t understand the language ?.
--Not seeing the duplication. (Maybe deleted?)
This person did two posts after a 10 year hiatus.
Kinder in Betten, which asked why the child in bed motif seems to be repeated so often in the 2022 convention videos
and
TV Glotz Congress, which made fun of the JW's who dress up, wear lapel badges, applaud and stand up to sing for a virtual convention that they're watching on their television.
(The language is German)
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.....
Or is that just too simplistic a reason.
People seem to prefer YouTube videos over boring, old print, so here is a rather depressing summary by a U.S. geopolitical analyst:
also ich winke jeden tag meinem tv-gerät und wer von uns hat nicht schon vor wachtturmcomicsbildchen geweint.. wer an dämonen, vampire und wehrwölfe glaubt, der glaubt auch das sich der fernseher freut, wenn ich in seine richtung klatsche.
wenn ich mir alleine vor dem fernseher ein kongressvideo ansehe, stecke ich mir auch mein namensschild an.. in zukunft poste ich nur noch selfies mit meinem fernsehgerät.. und wenn ich in zukunft vor dem fernsehgerät singe stehe ich selbstverständlich dabei auf – denn gott sieht alles, er hört alles und er riecht alles….
kongressnachlese 2022. tv glotz kongress.
The OP is lampooning the sentiments expressed in the attached video. (Just in case that's not clear)
Clapping, wearing lapel badges, dressing formally, etc for a virtual convention is kinda culty to be honest.
wieso werden von den zeugen jehovas auf dem diesjährigen kongress, kinder in betten gefilmt und diese filme im internet untereinander geteilt?.
warum liefern jehovas zeugen auf dem diesjährigen kongress die vorlage das mit kindern im bett die bibel studiert werden soll?.
warum liefern jehovas zeugen, in dem erwachet vom oktober 2007, dann eine der umfangreichsten und besten tipps im freien internet, wie man kinder erfolgreich missbraucht.. .
Warum liefern Jehovas Zeugen auf dem diesjährigen Kongress die Vorlage das mit Kindern im Bett die Bibel studiert werden sol
Ich weiß nicht.
Gute-Nacht-Geschichten sind in manchen Kulturen weit verbreitet.
Vielleicht ist die Idee, diese Gute-Nacht-Geschichten durch Bibelstudium zu ersetzen
