i know this is a bit off the topic of religion, but i just got back from seeing ant man with my son.
i'm getting tired of the fact that hollywood (and in this case the action/hero genre) rarely seems to have an original thought.
has anybody noticed the same theme?.
jws,
Your are accurate, and expect more of the same. Based on what I have read, right now it appears that foreign markets are paying the profits for Hollywood movies. And foreign markets, based on what I understand, prefer action movies and sequels even more than US audiences, especially it seems the Marvel and other comic heroes.
Unless and until that business design changes, Spider Man IX and Iron Man XXX are in the plans. And they won't change the plots, etc. much lest the masses revolt.

Fish,
Yeah I'm with you. That Rosa Parks woman should have kept quiet and found a different form of transportation. Demanding that she ride THAT bus in THAT city in a DIGNIFIED manner!! Those uppity blacks. Look what she caused, civil rights for everybody, including x-tians.
They should not have to go anywhere to get a license other than the county in which they live. WTF is wrong with you and your kind? I've read this nonsense on x-tian fundie websites. The only person wrong in this matter was Ms. Davis.
If having more than one wife/husband is made legal at some time in the future, why would you care? Once again, that is a religious issue, not a secular one. And why do you and those like you continue to link gay marriage with other issues un-related?
WTF is wrong with you?

True Blood has The best opening song/video EVER - "I want to do bad things to you."
No, really. I do.

A sign seen outside Ashland Ky where Ms. Davis resides. Ashland, which sits on the Ohio, River just across from Ohio and W VA (the only state completely within the Appalachian region), is 95% white, under-educated when compared to the rest of the US, blue collar, coal-mining, bible thumping fundies. If you took a map of the Appalachian region and used a ruler to find the smack dab right in the middle of it, you would be about 10 miles from Ashland. They can't even spell in the armpit of Appalachia.
Sorry, I've been watching too many episodes of "True Blood." But really, is it even possible to watch too much True Blood?

Outlaw,
Please forgive me, as you are correct. We are beating a dead horse. But please don't deny me the pleasure of posting this from today's news.
Jailed clerk's attorney: Marriage licenses for gays are void, AP News, by Adam Beam
OREHEAD, Ky. (AP) — A jailed Kentucky clerk asserted that marriage licenses issued without her authority Friday to gay couples in Rowan County are void and "not worth the paper they are written on" because she didn't authorize them, her attorney said.
Kim Davis now wears an orange jumpsuit and "has already been doing Bible studies with herself" in jail, her attorney Mat Staver of Liberty Counsel told reporters after meeting with her behind bars."
i've been lurking for about 3 months now and thought i'd better finally sign up.
you have all been an immense help to me as i have come to realize that this isn't the truth so i want to say a great big thank you!
what a crazy, emotional ride it is to finally face the truth about the doubts that i have carried for many years.
Magnum
As always from you, great stuff. Thank you. And Stumpy and Ms. Stumpy, welcome to freedom!!!
But Mag, I believe I have exclusive use of zombie material on this forum. I will check with Simon and my legal papers, but I'm almost certain. It took me months of negotiation and a promise to behave, so I'm not giving up my zombie reference rights so easily. Of course, my behaving is a day-to-day tenuous at best situation, so you may have some rights.
Consider yourself served!!!!
i have noticed that the jws are participating in meetings organized by the osce.
they are registered or participate under the "european association of jehovah's christian witnesses".
one point highlighted in this organization is tolerance.
Paul,
My email to the OSCE:
Dear sirs,
I first want to say that I have been aware of your organization for many years and I follow the excellent work you do to bring stability and equality to Europe and the world. Thank you. The reason I am e-mailing you concerns information I recently received that suggests the religious group of Jehovah's Witnesses is a participating member. If this is not correct, please ignore what I am about to write.
I was raised in this organization and served as an elder in it until leaving it more than 20 years ago. This religious organization is not and never will be in alignment with your lofty goals and objectives. The Jehovah's Witnesses show a facade of being tolerant, but in reality their teachings, for the entire 100 plus years of their existence, are centered around intolerance for every other religion and every other person on the planet that is not a member of their religion.
Their members are discouraged from seeking higher education, which is a core objective of the OSCE, by the JW leaders, and they have been taught for a century to stay away from 'wordily' pursuits such as education, political reform, environmental or social improvements, because one day soon their god is going to destroy the billions of people and all of the governments and entities who aren't JWs, including the OSCE.
These are facts that you can readily and easily confirm. I would give much consideration to allowing this religious group to even be associated by name only with the OSCE. They are a hate filled organization; their dreadful shunning policy practiced against members has had a sometimes terrible affect on human suffering, leading to the destruction of entire families, depression and increased use of governmental resources as a result.
This religious group is dangerous; do not simply look at their facade. Please investigate thoroughly before allowing them any participation or the legitimacy that they are seeking.
Sincerely,
i have noticed that the jws are participating in meetings organized by the osce.
they are registered or participate under the "european association of jehovah's christian witnesses".
one point highlighted in this organization is tolerance.
Done,
Thank you Paul.

Totc,
The age of consent/marriage varies from country to country and state to state. Other than a not veiled attempt to link gay males with pedophilia, your post is irrelevant to this discussion.
It will be no different than a 21 yr old girl marrying a 16 year old boy. Where it's legal, it's legal. And, none of your business.
