similarities between, jw:ism, stalinism, putinism, and mullahism, popeism and maoism..
all these leaders has been elected by un elite group controlling big values in form of real estate, bank account, enthusiastic voluntary working task forces, almost willingly to die for their leaders.
the workers (slave class), is never ever supposed to question the leaders decisions.
The difference between a Totalitarian regime and the Borg is that one of them is a regime based on subordination of the individual and strict control of all aspects of the life and productive capacity of the individual especially by coercive measures.
While the other one operates out of cities such as Pyongyang and Riyadh.
what's the problem with prophecy?prophecy primarily requires a pattern recognition or insightful strategy not an analytical strategy.
prophecy rarely gives names whether of empires or their rulers.
even the name of the messiah - yeshua -wasn't foretold.
The batting average for the following prophetic methodology is 0.0000.
“ . . . analytical strategy.”
While the batting average for the following prophetic methodology is 0.000000.
“Prophecy primarily
requires a pattern recognition or insightful strategy, not analytical
strategy. The focus of prophecy is on events and actions of the significant
players in a prophetic structure. This requires an adaptive approach that can
accommodate a best fit. The basic criteria for a fit is are the sequence
of the events and after that a fit determined by the significance of the event
and the relationship of the actors.”
the jws have now been discouraging higher education and critical thinking for a long time.
we have all seen the 'dumbing down' of the wt literature.
on a personal level i have seen many of the perceivably intelligent younger members of congregations leave.
OneEyedJoe,
You are spot on that the Dark Lords are having to dumb down the literature for the rank and file. However, they started dumbing down the processes long ago for much darker reasons - to discourage independent study, individual comments and evaluation, etc. in order to control the message at all costs.
They appear to be paying for that. Excellent. But as long as they can outsource what they need or find enough dubs with the intelligence to do their bidding they will trade stupidity and a lack of education for the alternative.
They will continue to bleed the best and brightest. And that is most excellent.
an update on my life post education..... as the governing body continue to denounce higher education, reality continues to prove their words ignorant, ill informed and blatant lies.
i am proud and astonished to say i have just been accepted for a university teaching hospital post.
i have a seriously sought after, senior house officer job in intensive care, endocrinology and clinical pharmacology.
i don't quite understand why mr. nethanyahu is so fearful if iran or other nations have nuclear weapons.
as the nra espouses, the more people are armed and the more weapons on the street, then the safer we should feel.
we all should have the right to protect ourselves.
Cappytan,
I worked in the UAE a few years back for about a month. In our briefing we were told to not refer to the Gulf as the Persian Gulf while we were there because the Emirates hate the Persians. It is the Arabian Gulf on the E side of the Gulf for most of those countries.

Much of Netanyahu's speech was simply rhetoric, such as his comments regarding Iran 'gobbling' up other nations. As if many other nations aren't trying to spread their own zone of influence.
However, Iranian leaders have made several statements about destroying the Zionist regime. If someone wanted to purchase a weapon for the sole or primary purpose of killing your family, which they had made public, RubaDub, you would probably be trying to get someone's attention who could thwart the attempt.
Iranian leaders have made several statements about wiping the Israelis off the map. If you were the leader of Israel you would be doing the same thing.
what a spirited, brilliant speech isreali pm mr. nethanyahu delivered yesterday to the congress against the negotiated nuclear deal with iran which israel fears would make iran a legitimate nuclear power with the ability to wipe out israel.
(http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/mar/03/netanyuahu-congress-iran-nuclear-deal-path-to-bomb).
he also said: if no one supports, israel would defend itself alone.
Abiathar,
Is this yet another one of your bait and switch OPs? Is Perry going to jump in soon and you two begin a discussion about what this OP is really about, which is your amazingness and awesomeness in biblical prophetic understanding and how this is yet more proof that we are living in the end times and you and Perry and a few of your friends will be saved while the other 7 billion are destroyed?
You are a master at the Bait and Switch. I suppose that means you are a Master Baiter.

Another Economics lesson:
We have talked about in previous OPs that the advantage the Chinese have had for many years in labor costs is very quickly coming to an end for the low cost/low profit margin manufacturing sector. In other words, at the current pace of wages and benefits, China could lose this advantage within a couple of years, making it feasible for consumer countries to look elsewhere or start their own manufacturing. Higher wages and benefits can be offset to a large degree by increased productivity, but their factories have likely seen those capabilities maxed out.
Their entry into the durable goods marketplace almost certainly is buoyed right now by that same wage advantage, and they probably have 10 - 15 years or so to maintain that advantage in that market. By moving the low cost/profit manufacturing sector to the agrarians, who would work for much less than the current Chinese workers who are gaining sophistication and a consumer mentality, they can extend that advantage in labor costs in the lower end consumer goods market out for many years.
The Chinese have good economists. Given what they have to work with, they are making a lot of smart moves.

FTS,
This is part of China's long term strategy to develop a trade based system that more closely resembles the German model. In order to bring as many of its citizens into the economic system within a reasonable period of time, they simply cannot detour from their trade first model. Having said that, the German model (higher end goods with a higher profit margin and typically less susceptible to recessions) is being embraced. That doesn't mean that China will end the low cost/margin manufacturing and exporting. It will likely be their primary thrust for a long time.
The educated workers can easily move into the higher tech/durable goods jobs, while the uneducated agrarians are likely targeted as replacements/backfills. We are likely to see factories re-located to the agrian areas, if it hasn't already started. They are building the infrastructure to make it occur.
Not a bad model, actually. Their GDP is heavily reliant on exports; internal consumer consumption isn't high or stable enough to allow a spreading of the wealth, not yet at least. Government spending/investment as part of their GDP has risen sharply since the Great Recession started, which is a Keynsian model that has worked fairly well for them.
The Chinese leaders know quite well that an export driven GDP/economic model is problematic, but they have few other choices. All things considered, I give them an A- to this point. Real problems loom on the horizon, but I am pulling for them.
i was thinking about this last night.
what would happen if.
someone new check out this site, what would they think?.
The Darks Lords and all of the dark heartedness they have created and all of the harm they have done are deserving of our strongest condemnation. Never forget. Never.
