    No, I could explain anything. Dogmatism WAS my specialty.

    i used to panic that someone would ask me a question, luckily they never did. i could never have explained any of the gentile times stuff or 607BC or the big tree picture in the Live Forever Book. It was all gobbledygook and I never ever got it.

    I never met a question or objection that I could not handle. We forget that 99.9% of normal people have very little idea what JWs believe, and furthermore, don't care. JWs are just an occasional doorstep annoyance to be got rid of as soon as possible.

    Had I ever met anyone who knew about Beth Sarim, Malawi cf. Mexico neutrality issue, Leo Greenlees or Ray Franz, I would not have had a clue what they were talking about, and would have dismissed them as a nutter. Silentlambs, "this generation" change and the UN all broke long after I left.

    "what's the reason for not celebrating birthdays?"

    the reasoning was so stupid that i just didn't want to repeat it. so i got a "well, if it is so difficult to explain, better don't try"

    I could not explain the ban on blood transfusions and all the more so since I had ceased to believe in it. Would you let your child die rather than give him some blood? I could never give all that non sense about transfusion being eating blood. A blood donor gives voluntarily and without any harm to himself.

    Did Franz have an obsessive irrational fear of blood and concocted the whole dogma out of this?

    the big tree was being cut down or something - I'm afraid my brain shuits down if I try to think any harder about it. It was soemthing to do with 7 gentile times...oh god I'm breaking out into a cold sweat just thinking about it!
