  What is your opinion of the news media?

  by minimus in

  1. social
  2. current

  to me they have an agenda and they really don't care about professional journalism.

  most are untrustworthy and that's a shame.

  Minimus,

  Your Far R leaning is well known by everyone on this site. Sadly (a Trump word), there are a lot of little minimi on this site who feel like you do.

  The biggliest inauguration crowed EVER. A lie. He is still talking about it, which is 1000x scarier and more worrisome than the lie.

  The biggliest electoral college victory since Reagan. A lie.

  3,000,000 illegals voted. No evidence provided and even his own party says put up or shut up. He is still talking about it, which is 1000x scarier and more worrisome than the lie.

  Immigrants from the 7 Islamic countries - and others - are not vetted. A lie. Extreme vetting has been in place for years.http://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2017/01/25/syrian-refugees-trump-extreme-vetting-column/97043442/

  His approval rating is yuuuge. A lie. His approval rating is at an historic low for new presidents. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/onpolitics/2017/02/16/trump-falsely-claims-biggest-electoral-win-since-reagan/98002648/

  The media caused Flynn to be fired. A lie. The Orange One fired Flynn. The media had nothing to do with it. Flynn, who should be acting like a life long military professional, is a delusional conspiracy theorist who routinely created or forwarded CTs from his Twitter account. As did his son. One of these almost led to a killing.

  Through Trump, Kelly Ann and Spicer made claims about terrorist attacks in Bowling Green and Atlanta. Both were lies. There was never a retraction.

  This is just the tip of the iceberg.

  Provide evidence that the legitimate news media is providing inaccurate data about any of the above. OR STFU.

  How's that, sweetie?

  Bullshit Trump echo chamber. Most? Evidence? Your hero is unhinged, a liar and has NPD. Neither he nor you can find error in the fact checking responses they have provided to The Orange One.

  Try again, Minimus.

  A shame? You sound just like the Orange One. Now say 'sad,' 'pathetic' 'yuuge' and 'bigly'. Sieg Heil.

  Silence right now for you Trumpeters is probably the better option.

  Through legalism, has the WTBT$ and their followers lost their moral compass?

  by LarryCope in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  in december, i lunched with someone who was at one time quite close and is still a jw.

  the topic of the arc ( australian royal commission ) and pedophilia came up.

  the two things that was immediately voiced by this person was the two witness rule and that it was homosexuals molesting witness boys parroting the plastic faced stephen lett.this person is not online and has not seen the arc videos or know anything about the silent lambs movement.

  Infinity versus nothing

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  some people like to believe in something others believe in nothing; so in what location did the substance that expanded into the time/space universe exist before the big bang?

  where did the energy that caused the big band come from?

  how did the substance that became the big bang change from being inert and sterile and come to life to having the properties and drive that it does?

  Thanks Giordano. Stray cats are a plague and a menace. A lot of areas are trying to eradicate them for the reasons you mention. If it was god, I don't know what she was thinking when she conceptualized the damage felines on the loose could cause.

  But enough about my ex GF.

  The anointed1,

  Your worshipful ness, I know a lot of atheists. None of them have an agenda. Other than a handful of activists, you would be hard pressed to find atheists with agendas.

  Otoh, the vast majority of religious people have an agenda. Both x tianity and Islam are predicated on spreading their infections.

  Take yourself, for example. your imminence (and Your Eminence), 100% of the reason you're on this site is to influence your agenda.

  Download and process. your holiness, being an atheist is the exact opposite of agenda. It is a calm (oooooooommmmm) rational evaluation of evidence.

  God’s silence teaches more than what the “revealed scriptures” do!

  by anointed1 in

  2. beliefs

  objective reading of scriptures can see many human thoughts in them.

  objective analysis of religions would show that they exist primarily for their own benefit.

  is science too travelling in the same direction?

  2017 Circuit Assembly: Lesbians at school demonstration

  by darkspilver in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  steve2: is there some way this can be presented so that it is crystal clear what was actually in the demonstrations and what was added?

  i guess some will think it should be obvious - but this is where misunderstandings arise because we end up wrongly attributing something to jw organization that was never said.. circuit assembly theme: maintain love for jehovah!.

  note to speaker: warmly encourage young ones to prove their friendship with jehovah by observing his commandments and defending his standards.

  Why I believe the quality of my posts has improved.

  by The Rebel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  " thinking fast and slow" is a self help book by d kahneman.. according to my simplified understanding of the above self-help book we have 2 brains, which the author calls system 1 brain and system 2 brain.. system 1 brain is the brain that make the decisions, that we do as routine.. system 2 brain is the brain that uses conscious reasoning.

  thinking that requires conscious effort.. now the interesting thing is system1 brain is often making decisions system 2 brain isn't even aware are being made.

  this is because system 2 brain requires conscious reasoning, and thinking that requires effort.

  Great OP The Rebel. Our brains are no different than any other muscle. It won't improve, get stronger, more capable and resilient if we don't exercise it. I'm a rational by nature and Myers Briggs, but I work every day to be more analytical, rational and empirical and less reactionary, emotional and biased or set in my ways as people say.

  It's no different for me than working out and lifting heavy weights. You won't see the results if you don't work hard.

  You are an asset to the site. I aspire to be more congenial like you. Good luck with that.
