  it seems like the only possibilities are women of color.

  no whites need apply.. maybe he will change his mind and ask hillary clinton?

  A wining choice for Biden would be this gal and I would even say she might be able to bring more to the table than Joe Biden in intellect, education and political experience.

  The fact that she is also young and attractive is just the cherry on top of everything.

  As the video continues on he goes on about how Jesus stated to go and make disciples of him in preaching his new kingdom to come.

  True !

  The problem here is that when you make a vow to Jesus through baptism the WTS have included themselves (GB) in that vow of loyalty and devotion, these men being the executive directors of the Watchtower Corporation/JWorg.

  Which these ones have been identified as false prophet charlatans preaching a tainted commercialized version of the Gospel of Jesus. $$$
  

  The bible even states to be aware of false prophets who say they come in Jesus's name and say things he has not given them to say.

  oops

  Yes they respect the sanctity of life
  

  Yes that's why there are hundreds of JWS who die every year and that number is into the thousands by now since the 1940's .
  

  We wont mention the thousands of suicides this religoius cult has indirectly caused mind you.

  The basic reason the Assemblies were stopped and put online was because the government said no high volume social gatherings which included of course religious social activities.

  It was never the decision by the GB members.

  Sounds like this (JWS) guy made some pretentious hyped up story to make it look like how upfront moral and righteous they (JWS) are and did so by lying.

  JW's and the National Anthem/Flag

  by Anony Mous in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  one thing we were always taught in the past is how we should sit down and pray (kneel) to jehoober whenever we were at an event where they played the national anthem.

  we had to actively disrespect the flag and anthem and be no part of the world, because we were our own country with jesus as king.. given kneeling/sitting for the national anthem is now the favorite pastime of the far-left and if you do so, you get associated with democrats, how do jehovah's witnesses now 'become no part of this world' when they have to disrespect the flag?.

  They've always have disrespected the flag, nothing new to them.

  now the favorite pastime of the far-left and if you do so, you get associated with Democrats

  A just to let you know taking a knee during the national anthem is not just performed by Democrats, either are the people protesting in the streets .

  You could say the majority of these people are most likely to be on the political left though.

  did you notice this?

  2020 governing body update #5. https://www.jw.org/en/library/videos/#en/mediaitems/latestvideos/docid-702020307_1_video.

  why do they show the black goat in the picture?

  Mr.Finkelstein

  The JWS religion has had a long standing rebellion against Christianity by being disloyal and disobedient to Jesus and the father.

  Having goats strewn around their offices therefore makes sense.

  They carry a goat like personalty in their teaching and doctrines not like an obedient lamb.

  Culture Wars

  with things going to hell in a hand basket, i’ve taken an interest in the clashes of mindsets.

  this of course takes me back to my own evolutionary mindset pre and post jw life of two decades.

  if you overlay the core beliefs of memetic tribes as postulated by the authors, i’m curious what the median tribe of jwd would be?

  The question one should ask is did this cultural division start with having a black man acting as the president of the US or was it because there is now a white man who leans to racialism and therefore became a proponent to this ideological division ?

  The political diversionary culture which exists with the US right now was unquestionably started by the now acting president D Trump.

  Racism and nationalism were the instigating ideologies which underlined the ending results in which we see today.

  Trump suggests postponing the elections ... I'm not making this up

  by RubaDub in

  2. friends

  elections have been held per the us constitution during many difficult times; us civil war, ww i, ww ii, whatever.

  i just put on the pro-trump fox news and even they are saying ... oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. this is really scary.

  are we headed towards a dictatorship?

  The reason Trump wants to postpone the election is to give the Democrats an opportunity to find a candidate who is able to put together a coherent sentence.

  Yes someone like Trump who presents himself with such intellectual orientation when he's making a public speech on a topic.

  Example .....

  On Gay Marriage

  "It's like in golf... A lot of people - I don't want this to sound trivial - but a lot of people are switching to these really long putters, very unattractive... it's weird. You see these great players with these really long putters, because they can't sink three-footers anymore. And, I hate it. I am a traditionalist. I have so many fabulous friends who happen to be gay, but I am a traditionalist."

  The elder ass kissing of and by individuals or those who are the children of elders goes on as I observed on a brief experience working with by brothers JWS friend.

  It seems like that is very much still there.
  

  There was a notable connecting element to what status you had in the Congregation(s)

  So so Brother was an elder so he got praise and preferential treatment to the other brothers yet he was ignorant and not a good worker, this even pissed off my brother.
  

  Maybe not surprising when it made known that I left the org and wasn't participating in the Org. I was demeaned and disrespected.

  Yet from a basic professional view I had the most experience and educational training.
  

  I kind of expected that but I hadn't spent any time with JWs for such a long time I thought it would be interesting to observe all of what I assumed about being in this cult myself .
