Films with nudity
by neat blue dog ini guess every jw has a different conscience on the matter, and i don't believe any jw publications have ever specifically mentioned nudity in film as being off limits.
of course genitals are out of the question because that's usually relegated to r movies which most good jws don't view.
female toplessness is condoned but not spoken about, as most jws i know have seen titanic and many own it.

King of The North: circular news top?
by Gorbatchov infriends,.
with the circular speading of my satire tread about the annual meeting on many different ways, even informal across the jw organization, i'm pretty sure that the news about russia (new king of the north) is not real.. there was a moment i thought that it was a coïncidence that incoming messages mentioned it also.. now i suppose it started all with my op, went trending through the organization (even through bethel belgium) and became a story on it's own.. this is not realy my style and i'm not proud of it.. g..

Russia=King of the North, USA=King of the South? New info coming in from Annual Meeting 2018
by Jules Saturn init was announced in this year’s annual meeting that they believe that the king of the north is russia and the king of the south is us/britain.
for me this is the first time hearing from the society actually identifying the identity of the king of the north.
very interesting times!

Since the end of WWII it has been Russia- USSR. But in 1993 they were unsure if it could be Russia anymore in the Daniel book. but I've always felt that it was still Russia. If now they are saying it is Russia, nothing changed. It has always been Russia and never China as KoN and US as the KoS.

I'm referring to the right for interracial marriages, the right to choose not to stand for the Pledge, the right to choose your own birth control, the right for consenting adults to do what they want in their own privacy, and even, sigh, the right for gays to marry. Were any of those entitlements? Or things for which the government should stay out of people's lives?Normally I'm against conservative justices as liberal ones give us more rights.
I think you are confusing “rights” and “entitlements”.

"Has anyone told you that this isn't a biblical trial? It's not even a religious one."God gave standards of evidence for a reason. Because people are not truthful and false conclusion can be drawn. That is an example that should be followed.

In the past I thought Trump was crazy. He's got his mind set on thing but the wrong things.
Normally I'm against conservative justices as liberal ones give us more rights.
I was against Kavanaugh's confirmation initially. But when these accusations came out and all the metoo and the jumping to conclusions and name calling, I'm now supporting him. I feel sorry for him.
Why weren't these brought out when he was appointed a judge and to the COA?
This is a violation of the 9th commandment. Coming out 36 years later is bearing false witness, because it is no longer the same person.
And this is why there is a two witness rule. But the witnesses have to be credible. None of these are.
I'll be watching the hearings tomorrow.

Anyone know the significance of the three days and nights Jesus is dead?
by Crazyguy inin my studies i’ve come to realize that most dying and rising gods such as inanna, jesus and others all were dead three days and nights.
the moon is dead as far as man not being able to see it in the sky three days and nights but many of these gods are not associated with the moon, osiris maybe being the only exception.
have any of you in your research come up with a plausible idea on why there all dead just threes days and three nights?.

IT was not 3.5 days. It was from Friday evening Nisan 14 to Sunday morning Nisan 16.
Because he died on Passover and was raised on Nisan 16 which was the festival of unfermented cakes.

Simple introduction to the theory of evolution
by Diogenesister inhi new folks, lurkers and trolls.
i thought i would post this simple but interesting video which shows how scientists bring multiple lines of evidence together to prove evolution is true; for example:.
comparative anatomy.

None of that disproves creation.
And evolution has never dealt with the sexes. If animals were unisex, then how could some cells decide that it would be better to form a penis? For what purpose? Because in other animals cells were mutating to form vaginas and they would work together. But those cells can't communicate so how could they work that all out?
How could mammary glands develop? Did cells have their DNA mutate to form them because it was good for the newborn young to have a way to eat before they had teeth? But those cells couldn't comprehend that.

I don't believe that Romans 13 and superior Authorities is a flip flop. In Russell's day, they felt like all the other churches on the subject. They weren't applying neutrality and the governments were above God. They were at one extreme. Then in Rutherford's day at World War I, he said they were Jehovah God and Jesus Christ to go to the other extreme to cause people to avoid any association with the government. Then Knorr brought it to the middle by eliminating both extremes. It's the governments, but they don't rule you above God.

Bro. Geoff in September 2018 Broadcast vs Serena Williams
by NeedToKnow inthe september broadcast opens up with a story of 80 yr old brother geoff who gave up been in a band all them years ago.
fast forward to 2018 and we have a world renown tennis player and jw as far as we’re told.. so where some are encouraged to leave the world and it’s futile pursuits of fame and fortune, others are not.
or even punished for their behaviour on court or for been photographed with their country’s flag where others have been executed for refusing to salute flags.

FedUpJW:
Are you saying that forcing someone to salute the flag is respecting the flag yourself/themselves? That is what brought about the Minersville vs West Virginia case where the Supreme Court struck down laws requiring any flag salute. Forced allegiance is what Hitler did and is no allegiance at all. JWs respect the flag more than others by following what it stands for, freedom.
As far as breaking fingers and shoving things, they tried that with Billy Jack too.
