It's sad that they believe that God would act in such a manner. Punish the whole congregation for someone's faulty driving. That is such a creepy QFR.

They are always telling us we are NOT under the Jewish LAw, then use it to "prove" that a congo can be under "community bloodguilt"
Wasnt all this nailed to the tree with Christ?

They use the OT Mosaic Law for a lot of their doctrine. I think their reasoning is "all scripture is inspired and benificial." So even though it's not "law" anymore it can still be used.
Uggghh, such a convoluted mess.

You could do a whole crop of videos on the various convoluted mess of the Witchtower babble and Trash Society!
I remember being in a car going to an A$$embly. The driver was speeding, and one of the other brothers said "The Angels fly out of the car once you exceed the speed limit.
We have interesting possibilities here:
1 - In Germany, last I heard there is no speed limit on the Autobahn. it is terrifying to see a four by four tearing up behind you at 120 mph flashing its lights: "get out off ze vay!"
Presumably witlesses can drive as fast as they want, and the Angels will stay in the car for a whiteknuckle ride.
2 - IN the UK the speed limit is 60mph on country roads and 70 on a motorway. The angels are constantly jumping in and out of cars in that country.
3 - In the US 55mph is the speed limit. Does an angel just coming back on duty after being in Germany the consider 60mph (legal in UK) a white knuckle ride?
This is a similar mess to the age of consent.
In France a girl can marry at 15. But if she goes with her husband for the honeymoon to the UK, where the age of consent is 16, does Jehoobie withdraw his approval and angelic protection from her husband and condemn him as a rapist and child molestor (scrub the last he protects pedos) until they return to France? Does he view the girl as having admitted to porneia (unlawful sex) because she "BRAZENLY" flaunts their wickedness on Brighton Promenade?

These jokers are seriously encouraging their elders to make a call as to bloodguilt in a car accident? What a pack of tossers. If Jesus were real and he decided to rock up in any Western civilisation, he would no doubt choose the JWs as the New Scribes and Pharisees methinks. :-)

The law is that you don't drive if you think it's too dangerous, no matter what. It doesn't matter where you are going. If the weather is so bad that you feel it's too dangerous but still need to go to the assembly or meetings, MISS THEM!
Anyone of such a weak character so as to think of his reputation in the congregation if he misses a meeting and drive in hazardous conditions anyway, is an idiot.

It's one thing to tell people that, if the weather is too bad to make it safely to a boasting session that you should miss it. That is the sensible thing to do.
However, if witlesses do the sensible thing, they are in for a rough ride from Brother Hounder. Chances are good that they will be getting a phone call from Brother Hounder, particularly if the hounder-hounder has just been there and claimed that "Fever, Fracture, Funeral" are the only valid reasons to miss a boasting session. They hound people about it, and then next time it's dangerous to make the boasting session, they will foolhardily go anyways (and have their accident). And they use examples about "If people in Africa go through jungles and crocodile-infested waters walking 20 miles each way to be at a boasting session, then why are you letting a few feet of snow or glare ice stop you".
It's a wonder that, since common sense is banned among the witlesses, any of them are still alive after trying to get to boasting sessions or doing field circus when it's not reasonable and prudent to do so. And, with what little sleep the witlesses are allowed, they are always too tired to reasonably and prudently drive to the Kingdumb Hell or out in field circus. Plus, they are always afraid of being among those who are late for the boasting sessions lest they be marked as "disorderly"--or, now, even hauled in for the catchall "brazen conduct". Thus, they speed--often faster than "reasonable and prudent", let alone above the posted limit.
