Here ya go.
This is the "Calendar of Jehovah".
I am not sure which year we would be in now (this one is for 1903 - Jehovah's year of Ransom) but it is clear that we are currently in the eleventh month - the month of Jehovah. The days of the week line up correctly with conventional calendars, so today is Heavenday, the 21st of Jehovah in the year 2017 (Jehovah's year of the ?)

Oh my goodness, Lost and Found.
That is your 666th post!!!!
Lol!
recently, someone who knows deborah drexler, the current copyright holder of cofc, asked her if she will consider having it published again.
her response was:.
" i will have to ask jesus"!!!!!.
elkatire: "I'll have to ask Christ" wasn't Geoffrey Jackson's ARC answer to a question they asked him?
Jesus. Ask Jesus, he said.
Huh. That must be the go-to Christian response to a question you don't want to answer. Jackson fumbled his way to this exchange when trying to defend the GB's ridiculous two-witness rule in cases of rape:
STEWART: “Now, is it not the case that had Jesus been asked about a case of sexual abuse he may have referred back to this part of Deuteronomy, and said that it is not required to have two witnesses?”
JACKSON: “Um, I certainly would like to ask Jesus that, and I can’t at the moment. I hope to in the future. Ah, but that’s a hypothetical question which, if we had an answer, then we could support what you said.”
so i recently moved back to my really really really small hometown in the south.
it was the place that my parents moved to from a major city up north in the early 1970's.
when we lived here times were very tough financially and i was always told that the reason we did not attend meetings was due to the fact that we had no car / no gas for the car / could not afford repairs for the years we were there.
Haha! SilentBuddha, you are one of the WT's Baby Boomers.
The generation of children born after the great disappointment of '75.
Add about 8-10 years and all you young'uns would account for a spike somewhere in the publisher count. You are the "growth" of the 80s and early 90s.
sorry if my topic question was difficult to understand (english is not my native language).
i will like to know the year when the so called “blood fractions” was available as an alternative to a whole blood transfusion.
my question is triggered by the curiosity about how long jw died or put their life at risk, refusing that type of treatment before the year 2000 (when the “new light” allowed that type of treatment).. thank you.
TD: Not allowing it singled out Rh-negative women and their unborn children, which is pretty messed up.......Yes. Pretty messed up.
Women and their babies. Two very vulnerable groups of people within the JW population.
Rhogam should have been allowed. But I suspect that the WTS was far more interested in promoting ultra violet light therapy. That is the treatment that was promoted in the 1973 "Alternatives to Blood Transfusions" which targeted the pediatric population.
And then, fast forward to the 2000s and JW women and babies were targeted for Stanate (TM) [stannsoporfin, tin-mesoporphyrin].
at one time scientists believed that living things and non-living things were made of different material, accounting for the unique properties of living things.
this idea is called vitalism and is no longer popular.
what does remain popular (in fact is still the dominant view) is a similar idea that things that experience the world (humans, frogs, mice) are different from things that don't experience the world (potatoes, rocks, snowflakes).
Can there be a consciousness without a brain?

Rodrigo: I have no idea of JWs are some of the ”guinea pigs” on some medical trials, I thought that was a big gap between the availability of the treatment and the JWs acceptance
Then you likely didn't know that the trials for a lot of "alternative" procedures, and especially artificial blood, are funded and organized by the US Department of Defense.
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/287365/blood-us-army-us-navy-watchtower-society
Jehovah's Witnesses cannot don a uniform but they sure do come in handy for medical testing that benefits the military. The two groups that are most interested in artificial blood? The military and the JWs. Bedfellows in the search for the Holy Grail - artificial blood. That magic elixir that just maybe, maybe someday...will extend the life of people for...oh, maybe indefinitely? Synthetic blood. Never dies and never fails. The promise of eternal life - the promise of biotechnology

It is really encouraging to hear that Jesus has found a way to release Ray's life giving book to the Russians.
Way to go Jesus!
I have read a few stories out of Russia where Ray's book has been credited as the tool that pried them loose from the WT grip.
Thank Jesus that Ray's book has made its way across the Big Pond

I am more than a little annoyed at this response.
"I will have to ask Jesus"????
WTF is that??
So that means that it is Jesus' fault for the book being held up. She is blaming Jesus for the book being made as inaccessible as possible. Jesus has held the book up, according to her logic
Sheesh. And she calls herself a Christian.
Deborah, do the "Christian" thing and turn the book over to the public domain. It is already there. Make it official and legal

Dio: Her response was:

Make of that what you will.
Personally, I think she feels it's better to have people as believers in the Watchtower, than non-believers out of the Watchtower, but that's just my take
Oh.
Oh.
A Christian with misguided values is in charge of Ray's legacy.
No wonder she is grasping tightly with sweaty little hands.
She will be blessed by Jesus for not allowing the book to get in the hands of *gasp* unbelievers
Jesus will be proud of her
*edit to add:
Ray's book available in 16 languages for download: http://jw-wayback.org/en/static1/library
