McCain had a few pluses and lots of minuses. At least he isn't the sleazy buffoon that Trump is. Perhaps if he would have went whole hog with the demagoguery the way Trump did, he might have won.

Eldub BIL, and Df'ed Kid's!!!!
by DwainBowman inmy super fine eldub bil, has a son that's been df'ed for a long time.
last month he deeded off 1/4 of an acre of land in the back of his pasture, bought a small local built used tiny house, and got it all set up, for his son to live in.
to everyone of the jw's in this area really look up to him and his stand on having nothing to do with his df'ed kid's or grandkids.

I've seen this more than once.
A well-off elde, steps down temporarily while his dfd son "is kicked out of the house".
This is when the elder rents him an apartment, pays all of his bills, provides a car, and a credit card. Then, he get's back on the elder list. "Hey, he's not under MY roof."
Meanwhile poor elders keep their destitute dfd son in their house, and do not serve as elders for several years.

Trump is an amoral shithead. No surprises that wedding vows mean nothing to him.
Now if Mike Pence was keeping a side chick that would be news.

Remind me again how Clinton got to be "chosen" to run as the Democrat nominee?
Hey Simon, the DNC was/is corrupt. That's how.
Clinton was corrupt, so Trump corruption is ok?

I believe that Trump will not be impeached.
Besides, impeachment just brings in the evil bastard that Trump chose for VP, Mike Pence. Pence, the establishment loving, fundamentalist religious fucknut.

Since people still join the JW cult, I'm not shocked that people join the Trump cult. Disappointing, but not shocked.
Like Alex Jones, he's a useful idiot to some, some including Putin.

Alex Jones, Infowars Ban on Youtube, FB and other platforms
by pleaseresearch inwhat are you thoughts on this?.
i find this alarming because jones was very outspoken and had great guests on discussing topics most other media outlets wouldn't go near.. the fact that many have restricted him access to their medium what does this say on our freedoms of speech?.

This Article Won't Change Your Mind - Great Read
by cofty inthis article won’t change your mind - the facts on why facts alone can’t fight false beliefs.
brilliant article in the atlantic by julie beck discussing the phenomena of cognitive dissonance and how it affects religious and political beliefs.
it includes some interesting thoughts on how social media has magnified the problem.. spoiler - she is not optimistic about the possibility of successfully reasoning with members of religious cults.. the article also has a link to the 45 minute audio version.. link....

I was pissed about "the generation" and stumbled upon a Matt Dillahunty video regarding slavery in the Bible, that's what woke me up.
What wakes people up? On the average it may be social reasons, but that is the average, there's always people on the other side of the median.
Thank you for posting about this article Cofty!

Are we losing our way a bit at JWN?
by nicolaou infirstly, i want to be crystal clear how grateful i am for jwn.
it's been my place of support for over seventeen years and it's the first online space i direct anyone to if they are taking steps out of the cult.
i am not bashing jwn - i love this place and appreciate the hard work and expense simon puts in to keep it going.

I wonder that if you've debunked everything JW from every angle, as this site has in its over a decade of existence, it is easy to get bored with JW stuff and just start analyzing the world scene in general. ExJW stuff is certainly less interesting for me now than it was 6 years ago.
This site has always been a huge resource for exiting JWs, HUGE. It's always good to re-group and see what impact our work is having and current goals we have.
Simon, you are a big-hearted person and also very passionate about your beliefs. If the ship needs righting in any way, I'm not worried about you seeing to it. I thank you for your continued endeavors in keeping this cult victim support website afloat and running well.
