    An attack by a man who is sensitive. For if he truly felt the need to do so, he would not have been laughing at the joke itself prior. Namely towards a comedian of whom joked about the person in question in the past; in his presence.

    That being said, Hollywood is Hollywood. Often times, a distraction to serious things taking place.

    Exactamente... yo lo vi reirse también cuando Chris estaba bromeando.

    and I stand with Will Smith

    Yo no defendería a un hombre que no puede controlar sus emociones. Ahora me hace pensar que también reacciona así con su familia, en su casa cuando algo no le parece. Él tiene historia en eso, como cuando Janet Hubert dijo que él la maltrataba en el set del Prince of Bel Air. Hay maneras de hacerle saber a Chris que estaba mal lo que hizo, ¿por qué no decirle después del premiación? Quizás Chris hubiese emitido una disculpa pública por lo que dijo de la esposa de Will. Por eso el mundo está como está porque reaccionamos mal y dejamos que nuestras emociones nos controlen la mayor parte del tiempo. Irónicamente, Will tuvo que pedir disculpas a todo el mundo y Chris quedó como victima o cómo héroe por si saber cómo comportarse ante las provocaciones

    I speak Spanish myself lol, I often find myself having to constantly translate my browser from Spanish to English to read some of these comments, but will have to proof read because the browsers does not translate all words properly.

    Maybe you should be more comfortable...

    La respuesta corta es, no, nosotros los testigos de Jehová, incluso los testigos de Jehová en el pasado, no apoyamos nada relacionado con el comunismo.

    @EquivocationI've not asked  about Communism,  not in my first question, not in my second comment

    Por lo que he leído hasta ahora, este artículo menciona a los espías, pero nunca se dijo que estos espías fueran ancianos y siervos ministeriales. A menos que tenga más información al respecto, no dude en publicar.

    In their attempts to weaken the faith of Jehovah’s servants or to bully them into submission, the Communists employed spies, traitors, torture, lying propaganda, and the threat of death. Spies and informers included neighbors, work colleagues, apostates, family members, and Securitate agents. The latter even infiltrated congregations by feigning interest in the truth and learning theocratic terms. These “false brothers” did much harm and caused many arrests. One of them, Savu Gabor, even held a responsible position. He was exposed in 1969.—Gal. 2:4.

     

    What is a responsible position to you that needed to be exposed?  ¿Acomodadores? ¿asistente de literatura? ¿asistente de sonido? Why is this man Savu Gabor so important in Romania that the article exposed his name so all of the millions  of JWs around the world  know it? now that I read again, this man could also have been a traveling overseer, just a possibility, would need to do some research about him but honestly I'm not interested in his personal life or death, that was in 1969 😄 What he did  was just an example of what happened there and in other countries.

    My lungs are black, my heart is pure
    My hands are scarred from nights before
    And my hair is thin and falling out of all the wrong places
    I am a little insecure
    My eyes are crossed, but they're still blue
    I bite my nails and tell the truth
    I go from thin to overweight, day to day, I fluctuate
    My skin is ink, but faded, too

    But she loves me, she loves me
    Why the hell she love me
    When she could have anyone else?
    Oh, you love me, you love me
    Why the hell do you love me?
    'Cause I don't even love myself

    Baby, the best part of me is you
    Lately, everything's making sense too
    Oh, baby, I'm so in love with you

    I overthink and still forgive
    I lose my phone and place my bits
    And I never catch the train on time
    Always 30 minutes behind
    Your worries ain't seen nothin' yet

    But you love me, you love me
    Why the hell you love me so
    When you could have anyone else?
    Yeah, he loves me, he loves me
    And I bet he never lets me go
    And shows me how to love myself

    'Cause, baby, the best part of me is you
    Lately, everything's making sense too
    Baby, I'm so in love with you

    With you
    Da-dum, da-dum, da-dum, da-dum

    Baby, the best part of me is you (woah-oh-oh-oh)
    Lately, everything's making sense too
    Oh, baby, I'm so in love with you (ooh)
    Baby, I'm so in love with you (yeah, yeah)
    Baby, I'm so in love with you

    You may think that I'm talkin' foolish
    You've heard that I'm wild and I'm free
    You may wonder how I can promise you now
    This love that I feel for you always will be

    But you're not just time that I'm killin'
    I'm no longer one of those guys
    As sure as I live, this love that I give
    Is gonna be yours until the day that I die

    Oh, baby, I'm gonna love you forever
    Forever and ever amen
    As long as old men sit and talk about the weather
    As long as old women sit and talk about old men
    If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
    I'll be happy to tell you again
    I'm gonna love you forever and ever
    Forever and ever, amen

    They say time takes its toll on a body
    Makes the young girls brown hair turn gray
    But honey, I don't care, I ain't in love with your hair
    And if it all fell out, well, I'd love you anyway

    They say time can play tricks on a memory
    Make people forget things they knew
    Well, it's easy to see, it's happenin' to me
    I've already forgotten every woman but you

    Oh, darlin', I'm gonna love you forever
    Forever and ever amen
    As long as old men sit and talk about the weather
    As long as old women sit and talk about old men
    If you wonder how long I'll be faithful
    Well, just listen to how this song ends
    I'm gonna love you forever and ever
    Forever and ever, amen

    I'm gonna love you forever and ever
    Forever and ever, forever and ever
    Forever and ever, amen

  5. My question was regarding the process from the beggining. I was NOT asking about men being appointed and then turning into wolves and betraying the christian congregations as Judas did or others in the 1st century and later. I meant about the appointment of  men that from the beggining had the intention/purpose of damaging the congregation. I see it has happened in other countries like Rumania.  Also found interesting this Bible verse, but I am not sure if those false brothers mentioned in Galatas 2:4 were appointed 🤔

     

     

     

    Tactics of the Enemy

    But that matter came up because of the false brothers brought in quietly,+ who slipped in to spy on the freedom+ we enjoy in union with Christ Jesus, so that they might completely enslave us;+

  6. Sorry for my terrible English, it is not my native language and where I live we only speak Spanish: How would you reconcile the affirmation of elders and ministerial servants being appointed by God when in the 80's in my country as in other countries, specially under Communist regime, there have been undercover men pretending being interested to the point of  becoming elders. Who appointed these men as elders or ministerial servants?

  7. Dear @The Librarian

    I have a JW neighbour who lets his dog to go out without any supervision. For what I see this dog goes in the streets looking for food. He must not feed him. Isn't this animal cruelty? How this JW can pretend to be a ministerial servant if he is not taking care of his domestic animal? Prov. 12:10.

    The show also strikes a nerve because it unflinchingly addresses a problem that is particularly entrenched in South Korea: debt and the never-ending struggle to pay it off.

    For what I watched at the summary of that show that is a real problem not only in Korea. Huge amounts of debt that the  entire lifetime of a person couldn't be enough to pay 

    I still don't understand why banks/ credit cards companies borrow monies knowing that a person will die old and still will be owing that money

    I guess, now it's time
    For me to give up
    I feel it's time
    Got a picture of you beside me
    Got your lipstick mark
    Still on your coffee cup
    Got a fist of pure emotion
    Got a head of shattered dreams
    Gotta leave it
    Gotta leave it
    All behind now

    Whatever I said
    Whatever I did, I didn't mean it
    I just want you back for good
    Whenever I'm wrong
    Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
    You'll be right and understood
    I want you back for good

    Unaware, but underlined
    I figured out the story
    It wasn't good
    But in the corner of my mind
    I celebrated glory
    But that was not to be
    In the twist of separation
    You excelled at being free
    Can't you find
    A little room inside for me?

    Whatever I said
    Whatever I did, I didn't mean it
    I just want you back for good
    Whenever I'm wrong
    Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
    You'll be right and understood
    I want you back for good

    And we'll be together
    This time is forever
    We'll be fighting
    And forever we will be
    So complete in our love
    We will never be uncovered again

    Whatever I said
    Whatever I did, I didn't mean it
    I just want you back for good
    Whenever I'm wrong
    Just tell me the song and I'll sing it
    You'll be right and understood
    I want you back for good

    I guess that now it's time
    That you came back for good

  10. In case you needed another reason to care about the climate crisis, it has been found that pollution is causing human penises to shrink.

    A leading epidemiologist and environmental scientist has published a book which examines the link between industrial chemicals and penile length.

    Dr Shanna Swan's book, Count Down, argues that our modern world is altering humans' reproductive development and threatening the future of our species.

    The book outlines how pollution is leading to higher rates of erectile dysfunction, fertility decline, and growing numbers of babies born with small penises. Though the headline fact about shrinkage may sound like a laughing matter, the research paints a bleak portrait of humanity's longevity and ability to survive.

  11. Familiares de Federico Gómez creen que "padecía persecución, hostigamiento y discriminación" de parte de integrantes de la comunidad de Testigos de Jehová. Y buscan que se contemple la hipótesis de "instigación al suicidio".

    Una organización pide a la Justicia de la provincia de Misiones que se investigue si Federico Gómez fue instigado al suicidio luego de ser sometido a "terapias de conversión" por su orientación sexual por parte de miembros de los Testigos de Jehová.

    "Ante la reciente aparición sin vida del joven misionero, Federico Gómez, 100% Diversidad y Derechos le pidió al juez que instruye la causa, Leonardo Manuel Balanda Gómez, que contemple como hipótesis de la investigación el prejuicio a su orientación sexual como elemento central del posible sometimiento a una 'terapia de conversión' y la consecuente instigación al suicidio de la que podría haber sido víctima", sostuvo la asociación en un comunicado.

    Familiares del joven fallecido afirman además que Federico "padecía persecución, hostigamiento y discriminación por parte de Testigos de Jehová". Gómez formaba parte del culto, aunque "en el último tiempo había dejado de frecuentar" la asociación religiosa, comentan.

  12. Two years ago, Russian activist Vladimir Kara-Murza pointed out that Vladimir Putin’s Russia had more political prisoners than the USSR did when Andrey Sakharov began calling attention to them in the USSR in 1976 (rferl.org/a/activist-number-of-political-prisoners-in-russia-twice-what-it-was-in-ussr/30048022.html).

    In period since Kara-Murza made that calculation, Ellen Leafstedt of St. Antony’s College in Oxford says, the numbers of political prisoners in Russia have only increased and indeed continue to rise. In an article for the Riddle portal, she suggests that it is important to recognize their diversity (ridl.io/ru/nakazanie-bez-prestuplenija/).

    One can divide them into two categories, “people who land in prison for public expression of their political convictions and those who represent minorities who are deprived of their freedom for religious affiliations and convictions. The latter category is the more numerous, Leafstedt says.

    Among the most numerous of the second category are those charged with terrorism for their affiliation with groups like Hizb ut-Tahrir. Rapidly growing in number are Jehovah’s Witnesses whose denomination the Russian Supreme Court declared to be an extremist organization.
