All you say is true….. but compared to Catholic Inquisitions and Crusades that lasted 300 years, what it proves is this:

It’s the best humans are capable of at their best.

Here is the test:

Who, does a BETTER JOB?

(   …. an address and a phone number will be helpful. )

Some of us do not learn about sharks, until we get a leg bitten off.

.I agree with Srecko Sostar, the search for righteousness is hard and long, as was World War II. Continuous errors and screw-ups and errors by leaders seriously flawed.

Sometimes the WTB&TS seems like a retarded child with an unlimited budget, but people that “get with the program” do better than those that don’t.

Perhaps it is God’s Holy Spirit that makes it turn out well, in spite of the lack of conscious competence.….. making a wholesome chicken soup out of chicken feathers, beaks, and feet.

Sometimes, the “Elephant in the Room” has to be there for 40 years before people will admit he is really there, after denying it for 38 years.

That does not take humility.

It takes inevitability, in the face of hundreds of thousands of people that will not drink the Kool Aid.

I was there before, during, and after 1975, and was paying attention.

It was a deliberate attempt to scare the Brotherhood artificially.

What the GB LEARNED, is that you cannot fool all of the people … all of the time.….. and that loss of credibility has serious consequences.….. but that’s OK, the GB never missed a meal, or slept cold.

…….. and NOBODY GOT FIRED or demoted.

I used to have some relatives like Matthew9969’s.

It is a well established fact tha Texas is the center of the Universe.

Cartoon dogs are gender less to start with, since 1975 when we were told we were all going to the Vet, to be tutored.

…..

Could be worse ….. the Aussie Govmt could require everyone wear plastic Richard Nixon masks!

In some places … that only works ONCE.

It is my understanding that Unitarian churches vary dramatically, and there is no “Central Command”, like Jehovah’s Witnesses have. 
I was pleased to learn that Sir Isaac Newton could accurately be described as a “Unitarian Restorationist” Christian, as obviously (to me at least ….), he was the smartest natural man known to exist, and because his natural brilliant logic and reasoning led him to believe 90% or so of what Jehovah’s Witnesses believe today, I always thought of him as the first “modern day” Jehovah’s Witness ( … that I am aware of).

Among the non-JW Unitarian Restorationists, are there any serious competitors for the affection and approval of Jehovah God and Christ Jesus?

I would prefer someplace that does not require wearing a tie.

When I was a teenager I was exposed to the words of Thomas Jefferson, who said “I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility towards every form of tyranny over the mind of man.“

I realize now, that since then, I have never been “neutral”. 
 

Oh, just as an aside, in Finland the government considers impairing a person’s right to vote in any way to be akin to a crime against humanity and a violation of a persons basic human rights, therefore the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society in Finland does not in anyway impose congregational sanctions against any brother or sister who chooses to vote, and does not speak against it in any way whatsoever, which would be a punishable felony, as a violation of basic human rights.

I agree with that.

Paraphrased, when Abraham Lincoln was asked if he was trying to save face, he replied “You think I would want to save THIS one?.”

… and since I have made no representations about myself to @Thinking about anything on any subject whatsoever, that I can recall, why would he or she even care about my voter registration …. ?

Hmmmmmm?

@Pudgy Care to tell @Thinking the TRUTH about your Voter Registration in 2016, way before you were d'fd? The good thing, your right to vote for plenty of government positions hasn't been denied.

So, how are you not afflicted. In your state it's classified as UNA, but tell me, you go for the Republican Party as a NRA enthusiast, right? Or are you now an NRA member too. 

Since we seem to be asking a lot of mutual questions, Dmitar, perhaps you can tell Us what relevance your comment has to your being a proven liar, denigrator, and slanderer?

…… and how do you move from topic to topic so cluelessly without leaving a slime trail?

Hmmmm?

… Concerning Dmitar’s compulsion to lie, denegrate, and slander, I am reminded of the words of Abraham Lincoln “Trolls on the Internet are trying to save face, without regard to which one they save.”

Nor did I, but then again Dmitar is a proven liar and slanderer, as has been proven from his own words, so when he makes statements about what WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE, also completely made up from his imagination, there is a word that comes to mind….

….. normal.

4 hours ago, Dmitar said:Glad you finally made that correction. People here for a long time including the people you defend here, @Arauna, @Thinking, @TrueTomHarley, @JW Insider, @Pudgy, @Witness, so forth and so on, thought you are a Unitarian Christian, when you're not by your own words. You just like to debunk, which has no real meaning in Christianity.

Yes…. By whatever means, the preaching work continues !

May I ask what you mean.? Perhaps I should know?

Specifically, about what?

Next to Rhysling Crater on Earth’s Moon is a smaller Impact site called Pudgy Crater. It’s a fascinating story how each got its name, and on one of the NASA Moon missions, the Astronauts jeopardized the mission, so they could have the “bragging rights” that they had seen Rhysling Crater with their own eyes.

For obvious reasons there is no Laika Crater, rest her gentle soul, but having full and complete knowledge of all of the above is and should be of only casual interest, BECAUSE, since there is no way knowing or not knowing about this fully ….. or not at all ….. can affect whether or not at some future time we get bayoneted, or not.

Same thing with KON, KOS, G, and MG.
 

Like Rosanne Rosanadana used to say, “If it ain’t one thing …. It’s another.  
 

It’s always somethin’.”
