All news media are biased but there is a specific issue with woke-ism infecting a lot of mainstream media.
You have to sometimes wade through bullshit to get to the truth.
do you think most of what they cover is accurate?
do you trust the media , especially mainstream?.

everyone is doing it i guess 10% are the witness youth...how dumb was i?.
There are cases where a girl became pregnant as a result of one sex interview with a boy

"If we were not supposed to masturbate, our hands would be where our shoulders are!" - lol.
Q. Why do monkeys masturbate?
A. Because they have opposable thumbs.

I'm amazed that the WTS is so against masturbation to begin with.
There is nothing - NOTHING - in The Bible that says masturbation is a sin. And this from a book that states a menstruating woman is unclean and so is everything she sits on.
The WTS avoids calling masturbation a sin, but repeatedly calls it 'an unclean habit'.
But that isn't in The Bible, either.
I see why any Christian group might be against sex outside of marriage, I get that (although don't agree), but what we have with the WTS is a cult-like group that says its members shouldn't masturbate.
Utterly ridiculous, especially for males. Sexually mature males continuously produce sperm. If a man isn't in a sexual relationship, then he gets a build-up of semen, aka 'blue balls'. Masturbation is pretty much as natural and common as blowing your nose.
many that have come to this forum have left the jws religion and moved on with their lives but from a outsider's viewpoint what do think makes the jws religion wrong or incorrect as a active christian faith ?.
somethings come to mind such as its long continuous end times/armageddon soon doctrine which has really been a core doctrine for decades going right back to its beginning .. maybe they should have adopted the stance as other christian based faiths and adhered to jesus's own words when he said " no one knows of the time not even he ".

No blood transfusions in life-threatening situations, even for minors.
In case of child sexual abuse or allegations of child sexual abuse, call legal dept first.
No independent thinking.
a new horror film is coming out, called, er, karen.. yes, a film about an entitled white woman called karen (geddit?
) who clashes with a new couple (who are black) in her neighbourhood.
so, karen is also a racist.. brilliant!.

This is apparently being played straight, no satire or laughs or a piss-take of Jordan Peele's Get Out (2017), but rather a serious horror film.
First, I believe in freedom of artistic expression, so film makers are free to put this kind of film out. But everyone else has freedom of expression too, and I'm fairly sure that many people will exercise their freedom by choosing not to see this film.
Here's the trailer - check out the like/dislike ratio, lol …
i just received a hand written envelope through the post containing an invitation to the online 2021 convenient.

Hi Jan
Someone has sent you a letter inviting you to the 2021 JW convention?
That sounds weird. Do you have any family members who are JWs?
do you think he could get reinstated as president?
do you think trump will run again for president or do you think he will just be a force for the republican party behind the scenes?.
At a rally a few days ago, Trump said this:
"After just five months the Biden administration is already a complete and total catastrophe. Crime is surging, murders are soaring, police departments are being gutted, illegal aliens are overrunning our borders. Joe Biden is destroying our nation right before our very own eyes."
Apart from the typical Trump hyperbole ('a complete and total catastrophe'), it's very hard to disagree with the points he made.
Yes, crime and murders are rising and illegal immigrants are crossing the border, not to mention issues with the police.
Trump will probably be back in politics in some form or another, even if it's just as an adviser to a Republican candidate.
most people over the generations have taken pride in their heritage, nationality and country they are from.
it’s not uncommon to hear of “proud” italians and proud irish people , as an example.
are you proud of your country and your nationality or do you feel shame or indifference?.
No one country is "the best" - maybe, but all countries aren't of equal value, surely?
I shall still watch England play football later today though! - Yes!!! Let's give the Germans a damn good thrashing!

I'm British, and I'm proud of the UK.
It's not perfect and has done some bad things in the past but, on balance, it's a good country (lots of illegal immigrants no doubt agree with me because they're coming here in rubber dinghies, lol).
We ended the Transatlantic Slave Trade, much to the dismay of African chieftains and kings.
We helped wipe out Nazism, we did the world a big favour. We gave conquered territories their independence - this is atypical behaviour for empires.
TBH, it's fairly usual for people to be proud of where they grew up - Homo sapiens is a territorial species, I think it's in our DNA to feel that way.
