i cannot use the "quote" feature.. if i click on the quote marks it does the hi-lite of the quote i wish, but i cannot under any circumstances get out of the yellow quote box to create my own post.. i would like to know how other posters are able to do this.
i use both ie and firefox.
the same thing happens in both of them.. also hi-liting no longer works as it used to.
Oh, and you can click on your name (top bar of the site, next to "messages" and "sign out" buttons) here on the forum and refresh (or reset, choose new) avatar / little picture for posting.
Mine is linked to Gravatar website, so I don't know how well the forum here sets or saves the avatar pics. My old one wasn't working, so I refreshed it the other day. But then I decided to change it up instead.

Also hi-liting no longer works as it used to. Cannot turn of hi-liting on my own section of posts.
Any ideas?
Hit "enter" button prior to highlighting ("highlighting" at this point means dragging your mouse across the text you want to make into a quote, while holding down left mouse button) the text you want to make into a quote. Put a period ( . ) as a place holder. Highlight the text by dragging mouse across the desired quote portion (above your saved space period mark). Click on the quotation marks in the toolbar above reply box.
So, you:
- paste the quote,
- hit enter button,
- mark lowest line with a period,
- go back up and drag mouse across desired text (while holding left button).
- After that, click the "quotation mark" button in the tool bar above.
Another trick: if you want to create linked text, click the "code view" button in the toolbar. Type in :
You can also use "code view" to clear unwanted issues, such as the highlighting feature not working properly.
Simply clear the code of the unwanted terms. In this case it would be " style background color : yada yada". Or add </p> in the middle of paragraph or sentence you wish to stop the highlight.edit: for clarity, I hope.
what is a cult and what is a religion?
its open to debate.
who has the authority to say for certain what is a cult and what is a religion?
How do they define the word cult? (self.exjw)submitted 7 hours ago by Pertinax126

But whatever.
something struck me last week.
i have been dealing with what i can only describe as a fear of death.
i'm not old and not in bad health.
Yup, realizing one's true mortality sucks. They also used dead loved ones as a carrot-on-a-stick approach for recruitment. Still stinging from that one, too.

Instead of attacking my argument, you attack me. That's a logical fallacy known as "ad hominem".
[from Wikipedia]
"An ad hominem (Latin for "to the man" or "to the person"), short for argumentum ad hominem, means responding to arguments by attacking a person's character, rather than addressing the content of their arguments. When used inappropriately, it is a fallacy in which a claim or argument is dismissed on the basis of some irrelevant fact or supposition about the author or the person being criticized."
I used reasoning in the exact same way the EXJW reddit community responded to the Jehovah's Witness IAMA post: if you make a claim, give proof/evidence. Claims are not evidence, in and of themselves.
Watchtower uses these sorts of tricks all the time. They make grandiose claims, attack people using ad hominem fallacies. They treat women like 2nd class human beings. Not equal to men at all. Inferior. In every single way, women must bow to every baptized male's opinion in the congregation, even if the male is a 6 or 8 years old.

The scene is all about breaking another person's will. Coercive persuasion. Undue influence. Brainwashing.

Nope, I'm in agreement with you.
I've done my fair share of construction and automotive work long before becoming a JW. In fact, a guy asked me to grab the other end of an engine block (minus the head, valves and pistons... it was being taken in for an acid dip) in order to help him carry and load it into the back of his truck. There were other guys standing around. IMO, the only reason he asked me for help and not the other guys milling around is because I would do it. It had very little to do with actual capabilities. Again, this is my opinion. Those other men were pretty well known for being a gaggle of gossiping lazy asses. Ha.
And yeah. I'm a woman, too.

@ cappytan...
"Perpetually offended" would be a terrific username.
Yeah, because calling someone out for their bigotry is wrong. In fact, let's flip it over to the person who actually called em out on it - the apostate non-conformist, who doesn't buy the explainerating, bullsh!tting, or 'oops, I was talking numbers, not qualifications'.
Here's a fun illustration: Can you imagine if the TV show "Roots" had been made into a campy farce /comedic romp about how the black folk just stumble-bummed around and enslaved themselves, instead of how slavery actually occurred historically?
Would you be upset with a black person calling out the campy production for what it really was: a fucking bigoted farce, made to white-wash history?
Now imagine someone making a statement/claim that there are a large number of unqualified people on a list, after making note out loud that 35% of the number are black people. They are the only subset on that list enumerated by the claimant before making the statement.
Is that okay? To insinuate that someone is disqualified for a particular field of work, based solely on the claimants bigotry / preconceived notions? No facts, evidence, or anything else to back up why that subset of the work group is unqualified.

So what? You didn't do the same with mine or OrphanCrows comment. Why don't you practice what you preach, "bro"?

It's not about men's rights or misandry or redpills or even political correctness. Or so-called "dank memes".
Yeah, most of us reddit, too. How 'bout that?

Listener : There is no insult it's highly unlikely that a great number of them would be qualified unless the org went on a special recruitment drive specifically for females.
Didn't the bOrg have work volunteer applications, in order to sift out the unskilled and unqualified?
Do you have any evidence to suggest that females are 'almost always' ("Thats got to mean a lot of unqualified workers", followed by "great number of them [the women]") unqualified for construction, engineering and building work?
Listener: Under one of the photo's is a comment that states females make up 35% of the workers. Thats got to mean a lot of unqualified workers.
Sooo misogynistic. Doesn't matter if you're a woman or not. Making sweeping derogatory generalizations about a specific subset of the population usually flags the speaker as a bigot of one sort or another.
OrphanCrow:Yeah..but you didn't say numbers, you said qualified. Big difference.
Yup.
