I don't consider myself a pacifist, it just that I don't like to put myself under strict government control and then order to kill some one. I hope this doesn't offend those that have done so during a time of crisis for one's country of origin. I'm from the US of A and quite frankly there are many wars they fought that for as much as I know I would not risk my life fighting in an army. I was up for draft in the 70's and glad I never got drafted I think that war was a total waste of human lives.

Pacifism is Morally Indefensible
by cofty ini have been surprised recently to see so much support by ex-jws for the watchtower's refusal to fight and kill.
in my opinion it is a vice masquerading as a virtue.
of course war should always be a last resort but there are occasions that it has to be done.

Will Artificial Intellegence Make The Human Race Extinct?
by Brokeback Watchtower ini think it is inevitable.
i don't worry about it but it just seems that the human race is going down a road that they can't make a turn off.. they are probing/discovering how the human mind works and produces intelligence down to the individual molecule.
now with the invention of the super quantum computer soon we will be able to build even better artificial intelligence greater than our own, so it will be easily able to out smart us because will we be a bunch of dumb apes first discovering how to make fire in it's eyes.. it will have it's own different agendas than us humans.

It will have it's own different agendas than us humans. And who knows what agendas of a super intelligence say a thousand times smarter then man will have?

First off one would have to define "morally" as we know their there is no absolutes or any universal moral code to agree on. It may be against your morals but not against mine.

Srinking Jehovah To Total Insignificance
by Brokeback Watchtower inso jehovah the bronze age deity god of the nation of bc israel.
next he's the god of the whole world even outer space,, as man's understanding of the earth increases past the bronze age so does jehovah's greatness.
the watchtower interpretation of scripture presupposes what they know about the world today or perhaps only what their thick brains know about the world today,, because they have this evil fixation about science and higher education being a tool of the devil to draw people away from the real truth found in the bible, their knowledge is very limited and back to the 1800s.. much to the chagrin of the watchtower corporation jehovah's godship has been significantly reduced due to what science can now tell about a probable multiverse.

So Jehovah the bronze age deity God of the nation of BC Israel. Next he's the God of the whole world even outer space,, as man's understanding of the earth increases past the bronze age so does Jehovah's greatness.

Much to the chagrin of the Watchtower Corporation Jehovah's godship has been significantly reduced due to what science can now tell about a probable multiverse. way out of range of any slower than light speed God. The Biblical Watchtower Jehovah deity just can keep up even when riding his heavenly chariot at warp speed. Jehovah's eyes are everywhere.

Do You Think The Internet Will Bring Peace Through Interconectedness?
by Brokeback Watchtower inas people begin to share information, negative and positive across boundaries(borders) what effect do you think that will have on governmental war machines?.
what about government censorship will it prevail during a time of disagreement between two countries who are at war?.
i think that one of the benefits of the information age is that government can find out in a heart beat what the masses under their control feel about issues they are concerned about in other countries and public willingness to sacrifice their lives over such issues.. to me i see the way i see it is the more informed a population is the better.

I agree that on the internet we share a lot of controversial opinions and may war with each other with words opposed to each others viewpoint. I considered this far better than killing one another over ideologies or government indoctrinated ideologies that can perhaps be overcome by a more logical solution offered to us by increased information on all levels?
Anyway information processing and information available gota have an upside in my book. I'm thinking in terms of releasing any hostilities through communication via the internet.

I'm sure the USA with it's intelligence gathering capacity will have it supercomputer hooked up to the internet and knows public intention. What government could pass up such opportunities, information is power!
Quantum computer is probably doing the math now and no encryption software can put it out of their view. Snowden eat your heart out. The guy entered a sworn to secrecy organization.
