Let's tone down the America / War topics and get back on track
by Simon infurther to this topic:.
suggestion: should we stop threads discussing america?.
i have decided that it may be better if we call a halt to the topics about america and the war in general.. there is more background info in that topic but the key points are:all these topics are distracting from the main purpose of the board.

I agree with you Simon.
This is after all a site dedicated to X-JW issues. While The War and related topics do indeed interact with X-JW issues, they are just sattelite issues- not the purpose of this site. Besides... this is ultimately your site to do as you see fit.
If this board gets too far off the WTS with the bulk of its posts, most new people will tune out. Especially if there are flame wars. I remember how sensitive I was to topics posted here when I first logged on as someone looking for X-JW info (remember the aversion to 'apostates' we all had not long ago?) . -J

Oh man- I have the answer to The War. It hit me like a ton of bricks while I was researching this thread:

Its as clear as day. Disconcertingly simple. A bit upsetting really, and comforting at the same time. Can anyone else see it?

Which are you? Emotional or Intellectual?
by Yizuman inafter observing the two sides arguing about the war with iraq, i have come to see 2 kinds of groups, not just the argument from conservatives and liberals, but from those who think with either from their intellectual or emotional standpoints...... from the emotional standpoints who oppose the war, which i would call the "oprah thinkers", these are the group of people who think with their emotional part of the brain rather than the intellectual part of the brain.
the oprah thinkers likes to cry alot and dab their eyes with a hankerchef.
they get outraged when a human being regardless of their background (good or evil) gets killed for whatever reason it may be.. then there are those who support the war, which i would call the "spock thinkers", who think from the intellectual part of the brain rather than from the emotional part of the brain.

Why did everyone jump on this guys head? Is there something I don't know?
Anyway, I think I know what you're getting at. But I too think that catagorization is limiting. When you get down to it, I think 'logic' and 'emotion' are inseperable- perhaps the same thing in a way. For example, being pro-war because Saddam is an international threat, or a wrong dictator could be described as a 'logical' argument. However, the experience of the concept 'threat' or 'wrong' is ultimately an 'emotional' reaction. If it was purely a 'mathamatical' or 'logical' issue, there would be no motivation to act. Conversly, the 'emotional' reaction (ie stop killing babies!) is in essence based on 'logic' , perhaps the concept that killing there will lower the quality of my life here in some 'logical' way.
Anyway, I'm a loosley organized hairball of factoids and non-sequitters. Mabey a philosophy major can help me out here? -J

Thats hillarious! I did an ad for an English school in 2000 when I was there, but nothing like those! Celebraties will often limit release of Japanese commercials so as not to look dumb in the west and 'damage' their career.
