  This should be a matter of society in general and those specifically harmed by such hateful views, beliefs, teachings and verbiage.

  Thank god for the world wide web, the Dislike button and capitalism with a soul.

  50 Shades of Grey

  1. ISIS throws gays off buildings, to their horrific deaths. We are all outraged at these monsters and their monstrous religion.

  2. At a lecture at the University of Michigan in 2013, when asked about homosexuality he said: “Death is the sentence. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about this. Death is the sentence. We have to have that compassion for people. With homosexuals, it’s the same. Out of compassion, let’s get rid of them now. A video of that speech surfaced in March when Sheik Sekaleshfar spoke at the Husseini Islamic Center outside Orlando on “How to deal with the phenomenon of homosexuality”. Shortly after his appearance at an Orlando mosque, Mr. Mateen kills 49 gays at a local nightclub. We are all outraged at these monsters and their monstrous religion.

  3. The DarkLords developed and placed on the world wide web for the widest possible audience (anyone with an internet connection) a video with attractive, kindly sweet animated characters, one of which, the mom, is kindly telling her small child Sophia that god doesn't approve of gays (and by direct inference that gays are deserving of death). Some of us are outraged at these monsters and their monstrous religion.

  Once again we have an OP where a lot of posters post specious comments that sound good on the surface but fall short of rational analysis. Religions have never been completely free of the strong arm of the law to believe and practice whatever they wish. Or are you all suggesting that human sacrifice, public torture devices for adulterers and heretics, having sex with children, honor killings, stoning the occasional heretic, etc., all of which have been practiced by various past and present religions, are acceptable?

  So it is all relative. But let's for a moment forget about this law or that law. This OP, like so many others, is about the pressure for change brought about by social, cultural and capitalist/economic forces who strongly disagree with the expressed religious beliefs.

  The DarkLords are not in prison. The FBI isn't investigating them. Bethel isn't burning. The IRS isn't climbing over their cyber fire walls. Society, in the form of 920,000 out of 1M viewers, "Dislikes" the hate filled views expressed by the DarkLords through Sofia's mom.

  It's no different than the cable channel vs. DuckDynasty, the NFL/NBA/Cisco, et al vs. the governors of Indiana, MS and NC, the NBA vs. Donald Silver, or Bruce Springsteen and Maroon Five exercising their rights to show their own brand of dislike to hate.

  Flailing about against those who agree with the NFL/NBA/Cisco/Bruce/Maroon and the 920,000 who dislike the Sophia don't say gay videos is irrational and misses the point.

  Welcome to the 21st Century. Come on in guys, the water's fine.

  5 people, the US Cinstitution, The SCOTUS, Russia extremist laws, Switzerland acclimation laws, The Hate Speech laws in many countries all say the same thing.

  You can believe whatever you wish. Practicing those beliefs, which includes speech, videos, etc. , otoh, has limits.

  And what the laws don't or haven't yet addressed regarding religion and ithe carnage, psychological and emotional damage caused by the teaching of those beliefs, social, cultural and financial forces are.

  And we've only just begun. Let it come.

  Don't believe anyone is up there listening - said a prayer anyway out of sense of obligation

  i've read many statements on this forum from people who have expressed the sentiment that you don't shove ttatt down the throat of an older person.

  it would be too traumatic and its best to let some people, in some situations, simply pass on in the delusion.. its humane.

  merciful.. in the initial roar of my awakening, i was unable to cuddle up to that sentiment; preferring, instead, to shove the blood curdling shock of truth down the throat of anyone i could get my grip on... age be dammed.

  The Worst Way of Living

  by Coded Logic in

  2. beliefs

  the unexamined life is not worth living.. -socrates.

  holding all of humanity in contempt and degrading every achievement of mankind as being insignificant is not a philosophy or a worldview worth having.

  tell me, oh self righteous jw, what was the price of your integrity?

  I understand. You're a good man. He is of age it would seem, so keeping a relationship with him would seem a given even if you divorce.

  If so, are there any other barriers keeping you from handing the WWOTE her broomstick?

  Let's see. You have no marriage. You have no relationship with your stepson. You pay for everything.

  She threatens and bullies you and it works.

  Do I really need to continue? Call a lawyer today, one specializing in divorce.
