  i'm so proud of my son.

  he has persevered through 2 years of community college.

  Jesus Creates a Monster

  i recently found this image of jesus, with a caption, a reminder of past stupidity in believing that kind, loving jesus, would (on behalf of old yhwy) look after me when he 99% of the people on this earth.. .

  in case you're wondering i found it on a pinterest page.. proverbs 8, of course.

  personifies wisdom - and the passages are controversial and the subject of some academic analysis (e.g.

  J Dublethink

  by LoveUniHateExams in

  2. beliefs

  i'm just thinking of examples of jw doublethink.. here's one - jws will tell a bible study or unbaptised publisher that there is no hierarchy within the org.

  they typically remark on christendom's hierarchy but then say 'we are all brothers'.

  but as a person gets further into the cult, jws will constantly stress the need to obey the governing body.. jw hierarchy .

  Hi all. I'm just thinking of examples of JW doublethink.

  Here's one - JWs will tell a bible study or unbaptised publisher that there is no hierarchy within the org. They typically remark on christendom's hierarchy but then say 'we are all brothers'. But as a person gets further into the cult, JWs will constantly stress the need to obey the Governing Body.

  JW Hierarchy

  1. Governing Body

  2. [some crappy positions I can't quite remember]

  3. District Overseers

  4. Circuit Overseers

  5. Elders

  6. Rank & File

  7. Rank & File women

  8. Rank & File children

  Another example of doublethink - JWs will condemn other religions for having rituals, and maintain that the WTS is free of them. The reality is the Memorial - all members of my old congregation passed the bread and wine around but didn't take any of it, lol, even the brothers on the mikes would pass it to the speaker and themselves in order to not partake.

  Over to you.

  What you got?

  Terrible what's going on in the Middle East.

  There will never be peace because Palestinians (Arabs) and Arabs from surrounding nations simply do not accept Israel's right to exist.

  I have a friend on FB, an Arab woman who was born in Mecca but now lives in the US. I would consider her a moderate person who is well integrated with the West. And even she posts stuff like 'Jerusalem is the capital of Palestine.'

  The spokesman I saw looked Spanish descent - they're probably going by the 'one drop of blood' rule.

  Kinda like Elizabeth Warren.

  I love the way Black Hammer, in their total ignorance of history, have lumped together black people and native Americans as colonised people.

  Actually, there were more than a few native Americans who owned black slaves. Many native Americans fought on the side of the South in the US Civil War. They wanted to keep their slaves.

  Neanderthals carb loaded, helping grow their big brains

  by Disillusioned JW in

  see https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2021/05/neanderthals-carb-loaded-helping-grow-their-big-brains .

  the article says in part 'the study is “groundbreaking,” says harvard university evolutionary biologist rachel carmody, who was not part of the research.

  the work suggests the ancestors of both humans and neanderthals were cooking lots of starchy foods at least 600,000 years ago.

  Neanderthals are fully human - yes, and they apparently mated with Homo sapiens.

  Some ethnic groups, people who left Africa - white people, Indian people, Chinese, Middle Eastern people - have some Neanderthal DNA.

  Sub-Saharan Africans don't.
