  Implications of gay marriage ruling

  by Rattigan350 in

  1. social
  2. current

  while many think that the ruling is good for the gays and their response is: how does that affect your marriage; then on the other side the religious people cry god and sinners.

  but both are missing the forest through the trees.. the problem with the ruling is that which is discussed here so many times.

  five unelected federal officials decided on policy for the whole country, running roughshod over every democratic principle.

  TakeOffTheCrown, marriage is a human institution and humans can do with it anything they want.
  

  No, humans cannot do anything they want.

  I cannot believe any of you were ever baptized. What are you going to endorse next? Bestiality. Marriage is between a man and a woman. Not a man marrying a man; or a woman marrying a woman.

  Endorse this type of behavior on an internet forum if you desire. But keep this in mind, Jehovah knows who you are.

  Do US JWs Still Knock on Doors?

  this may sound like a silly question, but do jws even door-knock any more?

  the few i know only speak of "manning the cart" at some public location, and because they get defensive if i even ask an innocent question like this i thought i'd ask it on the forum.

  thanks!.

  What does that conjecture have to do with reality?

  Viviane,
  

  What is the legal age for a male to marry another male? Is it sixteen, eighteen or twenty-one? Male to female marriage in some states is as low as 16. Can a male twenty-one years of age marry a male that is sixteen years old? If so, would this not be considered pedophilia or child abuse?

  Some day it may be legal for a man to marry a very young boy. It will not be considered illegal or child abuse.

  You're right, it is sick. But it is also what the Bible says and what the WTBTS teaches.

  ...This crazy, sick idea comes only from the Bible...
  

  To joke about which of one their friends they would like to behead - this is what is sick. Not that it is mentioned in the Bible.

  We joked about which one of his friends we'd have to behead at his birthday party because that's what the bible says happens.
  

  This is sick! There is no wonder that we see ex-witnesses or those Raised as witnesses committing such atrocities.

  We may be anonymous on-line and able to say whatever we want. But, this kind of speech can cause a lot of harm. It needs to STOP!

  Anyway I'm about to go postal and aggressively start teaching my kids that the bible is crap and showing them all the mistakes miss-teachings and all the evil that's in the book but I'm not sure if this is the right move. Attacking the fundamental basics of god and all that they have been taught about the idea of a god and his son etc. maybe to much and It may back fire and I may loose them altogether. But not doing anything which is what I have mostly done except with one child is just giving the cult more unabated access to my children's brains and I have to do something but I'm not sure anymore?

  (The above is a partial quote from Crazyguy, please read his entire post)

  You need to seek professional help. What's next? Going postal? Are you going to start killing people too? Like some ex-witnesses (or those raised as witnesses) have done?

  LISTEN, all of you, do not encourage this type of behavior. Otherwise, you may have to suffer the lost of some of your own family members.

  one member of a similar spanish speaking forum has found something quite interesting.. it is quite funny to see that gb members do not really realize how their belongings are really showing them as a fraud.

  do you expect to see a gb wearing a 17000 us$ iwatch when answering to a court.

  geoffrey jackson does !.

  G. Jackson:

  What if an elderly sister (or brother) came to you to ask for assistance because of being destitute, not able to obtain a meal; what would your answer be? Would it be, "this is not my field," or, "we do not do this."

  Flaunting your means of existence would suggest that you would not be too quick to help even these ones. Because if you were willing to help those in need, you would sell the watch and provide for needy ones. Instead, you wear the watch in public; meaning you intend to keep it for yourself.

  If this is the case, then you should step down.
