New Feature on JW Library

by neat blue dog in

there are a couple new tabs on the app, one of which is the 'meetings' tab.

can you guess what the other one is?.

No way! Donations built in to the app? They are getting shameless, some may say brazen. I'm excommunicating them.

Be careful what you wish for (in case you want to wake up your spouse)

i want to spare you a long post about my background.

because this topic is about something else.a small information is that i knew ttatt before i got married.

but then i somehow pushed it back for quite some time because i didnt want to change my life and it was convenient to instantly meet new people when you move into a new city.couple of years into my marriage and seeing all the changes in the jw my thirst for ttatt resurfaced.

Yes, that's exactly how it's played. We all play it differently, and that's fair enough. I choose to not play it meanly because I can get enough mean at any kingdom hall. Because I see people needing support or empathy. If you want to be Biff Tannen, that's fine. I'll be Marty any day. Now where's my hover board?

To be honest DJS, I didn't read his post as asking for help, I read it more as a warning tale of what could happen.

Only he knows his situation, and I assume that since we're not here to help counsel potential suicide candidates then maybe we shouldn't be advising individuals on areas that probably need marriage guidance counsellors, you know, trained professionals.

I didn't say you were wrong about anything. But there are ways and means of putting things that don't involve name calling.

Home made blood card wording (extra blood please, gimme all of the blood)

by disposable hero of hypocrisy in

yo bitches.. being a good submissive little jdub i lodged a copy of my blood card with my eldubs.

it's in their safe as we speak.

i want to counteract that document without altering the eldubs to this fact.. my doctor has agreed to put a note on the medical system (uk) saying that i've changed my mind on the blood issue, no matter what any legal-paper-waving death merchant wt representatives may sputter at my death bed.

disposable hero of hypocrisy

Anybody in the UK know about actual legal wording that I should include for this pro blood card please?

You know, all the bumpf like, "I, mentally diseased apostate, being of sound mind and not under coercion, blah blah, supercedes any previous written medical instructions blah blah, yah boo sucks to you WT"

Potential Life and Death Issue for Faders?

by M*A*S*H in

please excuse if this topic is duplicated elsewhere.

however i had not thought of the issue highlighted in the article from the point of those potentially fading before.. https://www.the-newshub.com/general/life-or-death-for-former-jehovahs-witnesses.

so what happens when a medical emergency arises?in the event you face a medical emergency in which you are incapacitated, jw elders and family show up to produce legal documents that will allow them to take over your medical care including withholding blood to cause your death.

disposable hero of hypocrisy

I started a thread about this a while back.

I've been to my doctor's and they've altered my stance on their records. I'm going to make up a pro blood blood card that I can keep about my person, my doctor has agreed to sign it, so that should counteract any five year old no blood document the elders could produce.

"I don't mean to be mean, but..." Is a bit like saying "I'm not racist, but..." You know what's coming next is going to be exactly what you just said it wasn't.

People are DIFFERENT. We react differently to situations. So he didn't act immediately like you might've done, so what? We can't all have Goliath-like testicles and glinty teeth like you have. Give the guy a break man, he's clearly hurting.

Nevaagain- commiserations man, I've nothing helpful to say, but thanks for the warning message.

Evolution is a Fact #12 - Lenski's E. coli Experiment

by cofty in

evolution works by the non-random selection of random mutation.

natural selection accumulates favourable random chance events.. the experiment that was began on 24th february 1988 on e coli bacteria by dr richard e. lenski and his team is surely one of the clearest demonstrations of the power of this process.. e.coli is one of the commonest bacterium on earth, there is around 100 billion, billion of them in the world at any given time and around 1 billion of them in your gut right now.

most of the time they cause no problem, until a new strain wreaks havoc on its host's digestive system.. if we assume the probability of a particular gene mutating to be 1 in a billion, the size of the population is so high that just about every gene in the e.coli genome will have mutated somewhere in the world every day.

Thanks for posting Cofty, your posts hurt my brain, but they hurt my indoctrination more so that's a good thing. I wish I could grasp these concepts first time without having to read and re read them.

As for clambake, what a tosser! He could come on here and say that you're full of shit BECAUSE OF *this *this *that, and definitely *this. Then adult conversation could continue. Respect all around. But no, he simply starts slagging you off. Come back with an argument mister clambake, if you're so sure Cofty's wrong.

Question about baptism around 1973- can anyone answer for me?

by Virgochik in

i am hoping someone will take a look at this and be able to help me with my question.. i was baptized in 1973, you know, because i was a teenager and old enough to stand on my own when armageddon descended in 1975. .

perhaps elders, or any former elders especially, but anyone who was around then could help me with this question, because i honestly don't recall, and really need to know.. what were the baptismal questions the candidates responded to back then?

were we still asked if we repented of our sins, turned around, and were being baptized in the name of the father, the son and the holy spirit?.

Amiright, please take the time to actually read the original post before weighing in.

shutting down topics now?

i can't comment on this topic on either of my devices or multiple browsers.. so we're shutting down topics now are we?

i'm assuming you've disabled commenting due to your feeling that it's a troll.

I'm sorry smiddy but I disagree.

I have looked at her past posts. The fact that there ARE past posts indicates a non-troll to me. This is a person struggling to make a life outside of the wt, and maybe now the struggle is getting too much.

And yes, if it's genuine then I DO think we could help her, if not change her mind, then at least to think about it first. Just to know people are bothered about you, to reply to you when nobody else is talking to you, could be real comfort. And the different viewpoints from individuals who have been in a similar situation can really help, we've all got different takes on stuff and a viewpoint might be presented that she hasn't thought of before.

I've wanted to end it before, I thought I'd let everybody including my god down, and I genuinely believe it's only venting on here, and learning from others, that kept me sane since I had NOBODY else I could talk to.

As for "who are you going to blame", i don't know what you mean by that. Everybody takes personal responsibility for their actions, but ultimately the wt hasn't helped one bit by creating a locked in society that's impossible to leave without losing everything. Personally i don't want to reflect that uncaring heartless attitude.

I'm heartened by the response in general to that thread, but saddened that there's been any negative response. Real or not, this stuff stays on the internet for ever and is visible to all sorts of people. The responses here may help someone else feeling the same.
