Canadian Court Protects JW Minor
by Lee Elder inhttp://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/jehovahs-witness-blood-transfusion-1.4299992.
clearly the right move by this doctor and court.
unfortunately, the watchtower continues to try and argue that so called "mature minors" (11-17 years old) should be allowed to follow their irrational policy on blood, even if death could result.

They say human brains don't finish developing until 25 I think especially the ability to make decsions and "see around corners".

Good to see some common sense prevail. The child's right to live is her greatest right after all.

In the last 20 years How Many Changes Have Occurred in Watchtower Beliefs?
by minimus injehovah's witnesses say that they have the truth and the truth is constant.
they believe that what they teach is the truth that comes directly from jehovah god.
can you think of anything that has changed in the last 20 years to show a jehovah's witness that the truth is not necessarily the truth..

When the changes are altogether it's quite an impressive list of "scratch thats" but when you're in there the changes are introduced in such a way that you don't really notice anything changing drastically.
They are careful to keep the prescription for spiritual health stable and predictable.
Pray more, study more, witness more, give more, do more etc, and while your focused on this "formula" they change the furniture around on you.The last few years have been continual adjusting to the way they do things with no sign of the changes stopping anytime soon.
Round and round and round they go where they stop nobody knows - cept the GB of course.

How do the foreign language Congregations find people to call on?
by UnshackleTheChains inok. i had a fascinating conversation with one of my polish colleagues at work.
she knows i'm a jdub and an activist as have filled her in warts and all about watchtower.. she came up to me today explaining how a couple of polish witnesses came to her door.

Foreign language is followed up the same way as deaf people.
I wonder if they have new slip now for gay people.

Steve2 - yeah, good point, if they use their flag to cover a window they can call it a drape and Jehovah isn't anti-drapes.

Yes what wasanelder said. They fill out a little slip with the address and nationality and it gets passed on to the relavant congregation service overseer who gives the info to some witness to call on that person. All very creepy and stalkerish.
