  Does Anybody Here Sympathize With The Looters That Cause Destruction?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i realize some here are diehard democrats.

  whether you are democrat, republican or independent, do you support any of these looters that cause mayhem and destruction for their cause?

  i have heard some people sympathize with these law breakers saying they understand why they do what they do and leave it at that.. of course i wonder how they would feel if their own property was burnt or stolen or destroyed..

  Short answer = absolutely not

  Law abiding peaceful protest is the way and has proven effective to the cause in a democratic society .

  Did you feel contempt for Non Witnesses

  the other day i went to this farm owned by this jw lady with my wife being a jw and my mother being a non witness.

  later taking to my mother she noticed this vibe like this jw lady really hated her.

  she just had these little slags like when we tried to pay for the fruit we picked , she looked directly at my wife and said " don't worry about it, i only charge wordly people ".. i also have this aunt who is a jw we are estranged from.

  Contempt for non JWS varies and it is mentally reinforced by the doctrinal teaching that non jws are evil unrighteous people separate from themselves, who are therefore deemed dangerous toward their own self identifying spirituality.

  ie. bad associations = non members

  good associations = other jws members in good standing
  

  Thats why associations and friendships with non members are not recommended and discouraged.

  This even extends to family members who were once associated with the organization, these relationships are intentionally broken off completely as its been documented.

  Practicing JWs are trained by the WTS heads to demean and disrespect ex-jws members.

  Its a way of showing loyalty to Jehovah and his chosen earthly organization.

  Seems god's chosen organization has been involved in a lot of fear mongering bullshit toward literature commercialization .

  Do you think Jah was getting a cut of profits ? $$$

  The WTS proliferated much of literature over the years based upon theological bullshit, hype and fear mongering, exploited by use of the basic belief in the bible .

  Bullshit sales if you got the right information.

  False prophet apostates who commercialized a false Gospel, being the anointed ones , I dont think so.
  

  They took the redemption and salvation for their sins offered by Jesus Christ unto themselves so they were nevertheless endeavored to self empower themselves through their sins .
  

  Its up to each individual (Christian) to evaluate those men for their actions and their expressed theological preaching, a truly devout Christian is suppose to do just that.

  Name a religion that intentionally lies and deceives people, exploits and manipulates peoples for labor and money, causes families to break up as well marriages and relationships and indirectly instigates people to commit suicide ?

  Here's one that comes to mind

  ....... Jehovah's Witnesses

  Since the bible says that all the anointed ones must be virgins, I guess that makes those married GB members invalid, meaning they aren't going anywhere.
  

  Reflectively since the self identified anointed members from the WTS are false prophet apostates they aren't included in the anointed class.

  I guess they really didn't want to read the bible clearly and accurately.

  by RubaDub in

  Economic turmoil instigated by a virus pandemic which the governments had to shut down their economies and impose social restrictions.

  Some countries like here in Canada the government was not too much in debt so they were able to offer relief money to people who couldn't work, but that's not the case in all or many countries.
  

  Add in the racial tension particularly in the US and you create a situation of an increase in crime.
