Suicide in the spiritual paradise all too common
by doubtfull1799 injust heard that a young brother committed suicide this week - the whole congregation is naturally very distressed.
what a tragedy.
according to my source he'd only been married about a year and his wife found him - he’d hung himself.

Why NO bibles??
by stuckinarut2 ini know we have all said it before, but it simply blows my mind that the jws doing cart work do not have bibles on the cart to give out to interested ones!.
how can they say they are "bible students" trying to share the "bibles message" and not give out bibles!?.
other christian groups take the commission to share the bible seriously!

Opening question to cart-sitters:
"What is more important - the Bible or Watchtower magazines?"
"So, why ... ?"

Cancer in Animals
by Normalfulla inwe were taught sickness and death is a result of the sin inherited from adam and eve, so why do animals get cancer?
they are supposedly still as big j intended, so therefore cancer is a creation by the big fella himself?.
just an exercise for one's who believe in the whole bible story thing.. (not me)... any others anomalies you can think of ?

Was wondering that very thought lately.

Why do animals experience deformities, sickness, and death, just as humans?
The notion that God will "restore" human biology to eliminate death, but will not do the same for animals, is absurd.

Need blood? Save your life, here's why.
by LevelThePlayingField inso here's the point regarding blood transfusions.
notice jesus asks the pharisees if it was lawful on the sabbath to save a life.
so, can you break god's law to save your life if it came to that?

One is not merely permitted–one is required to disregard a law that conflicts with life or health.

The destruction of "Babylon the Great"
by Sour Grapes ini read the talk outline #49 for this summer's regional convention entitled "future events that will require courage-the destruction of babylon the great.".
the jdubs live in a comic book world.
babylon the great is all false religious organizations and she is destroyed by those she seeks to control.

JWs have been beating this same drum and blowing this same horn for 100 years.
Not exactly.
Rutherford copied the teaching that the RC church was Babylon - from Hislop.

What Is The Most Ridiculous Thing You Have Heard From A Witness?
by minimus ini remember an elder questioning a woman who had admitted to giving and receiving oral sex from her unbelieving mate.
he asked her the most intimate questions which clearly flustered her.
interestingly, she “confessed “ to the elders because her conscience bothered her.

... they're building this huge stadium for nothing because Armageddon will come long before (1976 Olympic Game). Ironically there were several international conventions in that stadium.
As well as elders earning a living with contracts cleaning it (and pioneers earning some working for them)

Sign JW Data Protection Form Or Else!
by AverageJoe1 inin spain (and the rest of europe), the "improved" data protection laws come into force on 25th may 2018. this is a good thing and sadly america is still lagging behind; not surprising with their current president!.
watchtower legal department are hot on the case and have instructed elders to hand out the new "release" forms out to all the publishers in their groups, whilst making it clear to them that they won't have any privileges if they refuse to do so!.
note these points in the instructions:.

Was there not info a few months back indicating that New York was instituting a unique membership number for each publisher?
