What are considered conscious matters in the borg these days?

For example, the type of job you have, what take place

in the bedroom, college, blood, marriage mate and etc.

And is it a truly conscious matter with out any repercussion?

Those are faux conscience matters except for college. College is a conscience matter, but you will never be "used" which is now a term that seems hilarious to me.

Real conscience matters are...

What cereal to eat (assuming no magic, draculas of the chocolate variety, or gluten)

The type of hair gel you use (as long as it doesn't have ingredients from the dead sea)

That is the end of the list.

Not sure blood should be on this list.

You may not get DFed for taking a BT now but your certainly going to feel the heat for doing so.

Some form of punishment /reprimand, particularly if your a male and hold a position in the congregation.

Your individual, personal conscience doesn't matter, the GB has already decided on everything for you.

All you need to do is:

"Listen, Obey and Be Blessed!"

Thanks Problemaddict, conscious vs conscience.

"The type of hair gel". LOL

Why do they even say it,s a conscience matter. Maybe

because the ruling powers haven,t come up with a scripture

yet. So because they have not come up with a logical scripture

to surport their odd views they throw out conscience matter, but

you still can be hauled too the back room with the elders. LOL

grumblecakes

wait, im still kinda going to meetings and i havent heard anything about whole blood being a conscious matter now?!

Keeping everyone conscious during the endless droning at dub meetings should be considered an important matter by the WTS.

They publicly say voting, blood transfusion, and military service are a matter of conscience, but if you vote, take a BT, or join the Army it is said that you have DA by your actions (voting and the military are "violation of neutrality -- no part of the world").

So, are those really "conscience matters" if you are booted out if you make the wrong decision?

If higher education disqualifies a brother from privileges in the congregation, then every brother in full-time service who has a degree, whether at Headquarters or Branches around the world, must have their privileges withdrawn forthwith, otherwise God's sole channel of communication on earth - His earthly Organisation - is going to look decidely corrupt and hypocritical!!

Jehovah's name will be brought into disrepute by those who claim to be unique in His eyes!
