Ok there we go... Morphs law!
I could feel it coming... almost taste it in the air... It was like a zit right under the skin. It was there in the OP, hidden, festering. Took a few pages for it to pop out.
... that this forum, which is such an amazing resource for those needing support for their journey from watchtower's clutches has an increasingly present representation of unreasoning politically charged loudmouths..

I will abide by the committee’s decree, of course. Let’s see where the thread goes.

Does it require the use of the word “cult”? Or the simple equation of libratarian/conservative views to JWS?
Note: I see he didn’t explicitly say that, but implied it. (The old - they just left JWs and come here and get XYZ)

The OP is one big example of Morph’s Law. He lost the argument as he was stating it.
do these democrats really think that if they protest and wail about anything they don’t like , that policies will change ?
they are really embarrassing themselves..
@minimus: The real emotionally mature ones protest with pussy hats. Makes them at least 32.7% more effective.
i've seen many topics about how things are changing or might be changing in jw doctrine/culture.
some have extrapolated how those changes would result in declining jw membership.
i'm curious to know what changes others think would stabilize those numbers.
They would have to make it interesting and urgent again.
The only way to do that is a good old fashioned end time prediction... something like 2050... or better yet, some odd number like 2047. And they would have to back it up with some sort of creative chronology.
i have never seen this country so divided.
something is going to give.
they is such a lack of recognition for the law.
I worry about those who have the guns to start a war. You know who those are. They voted for Trump in big numbers.
The statists are afraid of an armed populace.... never saw that coming.

@waton:
Was not the last internal war about dissenting from, leaving the union?
Yes, it was. I was merely expressing what I would hope to see. Government back in box, states have the soverenty to leave without economic or military action.
and that happened in many of the last, close elections. wait, it could get worse when people start voting along purely ethinc, religious and not only ideological lines
Yes, it shouldn’t be allowed to get worse. Shrink government. But that probably won’t happen...

The country is divided because the government is too large. The stakes are high. You win an election and suddenly large portions of the population freak out - maybe rightly so! - because people they don’t like have power to unduly influence their life.
That is why, regardless of who wins the Presidency, Congress, or who get appointed to the Supreme Court, I want a convention of the states. There is a provision in the Constitution for it, and it would put the government back in its tiny little box.
I would be perfectly happy with dissenting states leaving the union if they so choose. I would also want **no economic retaliation** for doing so.
i'm being serious, i would like to hear from folks here that support him describe to me how that news conference was absolute brilliance, he answered all the questions, he knows what he is talking about.
just want to compare note with those who aren't his supporters (and have common sense) as you know this forum is here to hear both sides, so, have at it .

The people who think he is a genius are very similar to the people who will believe anything the watch tower says.
Morphs Law!
