Has anybody else noticed all the JWs signage is in all caps and ussually always in the same font? Why do they do this? It makes them look stupid and uneducated. Is this their attempt at creating a sense of unity? Why do they feel a need to always yell at us with their signs?

other than the story, the comments are very interesting, tons of comments by other blacks claiming the same thing happens to them.

Pistoff yes there is some racism in this country. However I really believe our opession with race is much worse. Our temptation to filter EVERY news story through the lense of race keeps race baiting and racism alive and well.
While it is contiversial to say... I really believe the biggest challenges facing the black community comes from the black comunity. Constantly beating on the white racists strawman keeps the focus from where it should be.

"Who are we to question /god/?"
by LovelyEunie inhas anyone had this line said to them when there was questioning involved?
did it irritate you because when questioning did happen that line was almost always used as a shut down to keep you from going any further and to make you feel guilty in the process?
because we're just idiotic and feeble minded human beings, so surely we can't possibly begin to question the likes of god.

So I was having a talk with a JW about the world getting "worse and worse" leading to the end. She quoted a scripture to support her argument. I disagreed with her. She said something along the lines of "who are you to question scripture"
What she didn't understand was I wasn't questioning scripture I was just questioning her interpetation of it. In her mind though, I guess there was no distinction to be made.

This is a simple bullying case stop trying to make things MUCH bigger than they really are when race is involved. The biggest problem is not racism it is our obsession with racism/race.

The government should TAX the WT for the social services spent on JW's.
by EndofMysteries insince there is an abundant supply of literature where the gb tell members not to get education, not to plan for retirement, not to worry about their health, all vs doing more literature peddling, perhaps the government should stick a monthly bill to the wt for the social services, retirement, welfare, medicaid, etc, that is being spent on members because of their insisting that they don't take care of themselves and plan for the future.
.
how quickly would 'new light' come that each member should plan for retirement, should get good schooling, etc??

So if a Church conducts commerce and rasies income as a buisness, I have no problem with taxing them. However I do not believe donations should be taxed.

Was droping bomb on Hiroshima in 1945 evil?
by new hope and happiness insorry for such a depressing question, but i was moved by a picture i saw of the consequences.
( a woman carrying her child) and i realised:-.
a) it was a civillian population.. b) i don't see how a nuclear holocaust can ever be right.. c) they could have bombed tokyo where all the generals lived but chose hiroshima.. d) the irony after the bombing america conceeded to many of japans terms.. your opinion would be valued..

Just to sum up my thinking on this matter...
While I think you may be able to concieve of some way of ending the war the would be more moral or ethical I don't think the nuking was inherently evil in the enviroment it happened in.
Also had never considered this one... how different would the world look today if half of Japan was part of the USSR? That was probably the most likely atlternate outcome to using the bomb.
