After repeated attempts to get the Jehovah witnesses to leave me alone I called the sheriff. Told the deputy I wanted them ticketed for trespassing. He wouldn't do it. Said I need a sign. So naturally I asked if it was legal then to trap anyplace not posted cause I thought I could be ticketed. He didn't like that much. He did tell them if they came back they would be ticketed though. Witnesses must've marked my house with a red X on their maps as they haven't returned.

This made me laugh! If you are that offended by the JW'S on youre porch, why do you hit every single thread about God that comes up.

Never had one of them turn up at my dock. Maybe they are like vampires and can't swim.

Wonder if churchy people have any code like "do no harm" Alot of radicals like to destroy the flesh that the spirit might be saved, I always was told when the silver cord snaps or where the tree falls is where the die is cast . My old body might not be much, but for right now its where I live. ( the world is getting churchy, and the church is getting worldly)

Still defending the murder of an individual are we? The missionaries intentions were not malicious, although he may not have thought it through with the possibility of the transmission of disease. Although I disagree with atheists when it comes to matters of the afterlife, I would not try to defend what is most definitely murder of an innocent person, even if that person was an atheist.

That missionary probably hadnt studied much past the bible and it probably didn't talk much about getting small pox from blankets but surely he should have got the drift from the laws on leprosy. Myself I'm pretty sure God doesnt know everything.

jwill after repeatedly and politely telling them to go away I wasn't interested, to no avail, I got a little more serious about it. I think it is rude and offensive to persistently try to convince someone superstition is fact.

btw this thread wasn't religious in nature to start with. it started out to be on the subject of a bonehead trying to force his belief on others. much like those Jehovah witnesses who refused to leave me alone. I get that their leaders want more donations but I don't really care. they can do like everbody else that wants more money has to do. earn it.

Maybe if he had brought with him a supply of government funded flu shot doses he would have been welcomed with open arms ....lol

Maybe they know more about god than he did and they figured his ghoastly white skin was devilish

He was just as foolish as " grizzly man " thinking they were all gonna be best buddies..........

So did this guy freely give his life or did the savages take it. Sounds like he has a saviour syndrone, which is all fine except that his blood wasn't as perfect as Adams was before the fall. Pretty hard to redeem something worth $1 with something only worth 2 cents. There was a sacrifice over 2000 yrs ago that did meet the blood for blood and life for life etc. I beleive Jesus does provide a reward for for those who are a martyr and is killed for what he believes. Those natives knew nothing of what he believed. A name among his own group is about all he got. If a guy jumps off a high peak I guess you could say what a brave guy and maybe tempting fate too.

There is people who will get on an airplane with a deadly disease and think its their right. If I was a carrier of something I would not even remotely take the chance of spreading it to a non imune population. There is times we do things unknowingly, we are only human. After all there is somethings God does not know.

Turn the lights down low and listen to the Masters music.

P
What you wrote . makes absolutely no sense. Sorry.

Well if it dont make sense of what someone is saying, how would you react if someone 20 or 40 years earlier had come speaking jargon that you could not grasp and gave you a invisible demon like whooping cough that killed your grandparents, how would you react?

Everybody should just be isolationists and tribal just like those that killed this young man. No sense in trying to help your fellow man.

We have that here already, they are called gangs,actually have reservations, we have rich neighbor hoods and those across the track. I dont think anyone has the perfect patent for peace that within everyones grasp, until we perfect it here why try to conquer the world and only become bored like Alexander.

Alexander just didn't realize that there was plenty of room to keep conquering which is why he got bored. He should have kept marching east across the Bering Strait and into the New World.

That way, Columbus and those Europeans would not be to blame for wiping out the natives with their diseases.

The perfect patent for peace is called the Golden Rule. I'm pretty sure there is a verse or two about it in the Bible.

is that why they came up with the idea of gated communities ?? Keeps the JW's out as well

I think it was those war machines on those elephants backs that discouraged his help. At some point he realized he wasn't God or the son of Zeus, but just a god spelled with a small g.

Ha! No they came up with gated communities because uppity folks don't like to be around thieving trash and other folks that don't keep their yard mowed properly!

One thing is for sure, he was an incredible man that changed the course of history. Interesting to compare the history of his generals that succeeded him and broke up the empire to the Book of Daniel.

I dont know what laws or rules natives have, but why interfer. They seem to exist with what they have. Maybe they have some barter trade like fish or goats . I guess we could just set up a trade for their goat tongues and civilize the devils by starving them out then send them care packages to show how golden our kindness is.
