Criminals thrive on society's understanding. If you are more concerned over criminals than the law abiding public, the criminals will win every time.

One scripture Jesus quoted that the Watchtower Society forgets to teach/apply
by RULES & REGULATIONS in14 and this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.. .
19 go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[b] the name of the father and of the son and of the holy spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that i have commanded you.
and behold, i am with you always, to the end of the age.”.

If memory serves, my father taught me that in order to be a Christian back in the 1st century you literally had to sell all your belongings and give the money to the congregation. In turn, you were provided a place to sleep and meals when you weren't out preaching. Christianity was literally a commune religion.

It happened in Russian recently.
It happened in Germany during World War II.
I can happen again.
It's the where and why questions that have to be answered.

My avatar is the one given to me when I opened my account. I commented on it in one of my very first posts as being ironic as it is a purple triangle. That brought a lot of laughs from the users of this site. So I just kept it.
My username is just a play on "The Truth," which is also an ironic term used by a cult that is nothing of the sort.

How do you determine whether any religion is good or bad since...
by TerryWalstrom inso, yesterday whilst playing chess i had a discussion ranging widely topically in which my chess opponent asked me, "how do you determine whether any religion is good or bad since there is so much basic disagreement on interpretations of text?
"i replied this way:"does this particular god need to be treated like an adult, or as a spoiled child with a churlish temper?
that's a good place to start.

Did your god make you perfect, with the ability to bring honor to yourself though noble acts or did your god make you imperfect with no ability to do anything honorable but deserve death in his/her eyes?
Hail Thor Odinson!

As a born-in Witness that only started celebrating birthdays and holidays in the past 7 years I find them to mean a lot. I enjoy receiving birthday greetings and gifts, but enjoy even more giving them. One of my happiest memories is the first time decorating the inside of our house for Christmas. My sons were probably 3 and 8. I remember the pure joy in their faces.

I know personal tax returns are protected law in the U.S., but not-for-profit organizations are having theirs published to inform the public of these organizations' finances. I checked out the names and telephone numbers on the full return. They're legit.
$1.4 billion U.S.! I bet that's mostly tied up in real estate.

Absolute Love For All The Courageous Souls That Are Here
by new boy inthere are amazing people that are here and this site.
people with their incredible stories of religious abuse.
these people like the courageous people who were on the a&e show this last week have showed me and thousands of others the power of how just one person or even a small group of people can effect many.. the power of just one person standing up and saying "this is not right" has changed history.

Should Voters Be Made To Prove They Are Eligible To Vote?
by minimus ini believe that just because someone shows up at the voting booth, it doesn’t automatically qualify them to be legitimate voters.
i think it’s not unreasonable to provide proof that you are qualified..

Yes.
No provisional ballots either.
No early voting.
No mail in ballots.
If you are not vested enough to get your act together and show up to the polls you shouldn't be allowed to vote.
