Awake! No. 2 2018 on marriage

by john.prestor in

so i'm sitting here at the laundromat waiting for the bus, there's a kingdom hall across the street and somebody must come in here regularly cause i found about five different magazines hanging out on a counter by the door and three different jw.org business cards pinned to a bulletin board.

i picked up an awake!

for the hell of it, i could use a good laugh, and i ran across this right away in the article '12 secrets of successful families', yeah, you can probably tell where this is going:.

Reading what you quoted I think it was

'allow yourself to be WRONG'

not 'allow yourself to be wrongED'.

There is a big difference to be fair.

''If you come in ILLEGALLY its in the name. You are illegally here and you are a criminal by default of doing so. All Illegals are criminal. Stop saying immigrant when they are illegal aliens. They are illegal full stop''

I have a confession to make. I drove over the speed limit once. In the UK it is a criminal offence.I am illegal. Full stop.

climate change ... who doesn't believe it?

crazy fools and science deniers ... right?.

it seems like it's become the new religion, the new orthodoxy, that must be accepted and believed as gospel and preached to all.. is it ok to be skeptical?.

''Change my mind.''

What I've learned from online forums is this very rarely if ever happens. Myself included.

How often have you (as in anyone reading this) actually changed your mind over any subject?

Toby, do you dislike people based on the colour of their skin?

How Long Will YOU Identify As A Jehovah’s Witness?

some witnesses realize that they got into a religion and it turned out to be disastrous.

many decide they have to somehow get out.

some do it right away and others take longer.. where are you in your journey?

''It still doesn’t make it right to contribute to a religion that is corrupt and filled with falsehoods.''

I agree.

And as I believe that applies to every single religion and religious belief I struggle to have too much respect for non atheists.But I try.

a woman gets an abortion.

the baby is supposed to die because of the abortion but doesn’t.

should that living baby be put to death or should the baby be given medical help to survive?.

ThomasCovenant

Thanks for the info on suffrage. Never realized or even thought of it that way before.( I take it we're talking about the UK. haven't read about other countries.)

''Now people aren’t afraid to say they don’t like something.''

I agree.

I'm no longer afraid to say I don't like black or brown people, or I don't like homosexuals or abortionists. Or women for that matter, and certainly not black women.

That's my right surely?

PS. The views above are not necessarily those held by Thomas Covenant.
