I found another flip flop (what a suprise)

Questions

from Readers

?

Is there anything in the Bible against giving one?s eyes (after death) to be transplanted to some living person??L. C., United States.

The question of placing one?s body or parts of one?s body at the disposal of men of science or doctors at one?s death for purposes of scientific experimentation or replacement in others is frowned upon by certain religious bodies. However, it does not seem that any Scriptural principle or law is involved. It therefore is something that each individual must decide for himself. If he is satisfied in his own mind and conscience that this is a proper thing to do, then he can make such provision, and no one else should criticize him for doing so. On the other hand, no one should be criticized for refusing to enter into any such agreement.

This little gem was in the aug 1/61 WT

Only a few years later the transplant of body parts was "canabalistic" and there were scriptural principles involved.

Fast forward again and once again it was a matter that each person decided for themselves. RIGHT

In the mean time how many people died trying to please their WT GOD

Come on Poztate you know you really want to detail their "we don't know" vs "genetic" vs "environment" flip flop position on homosexuality.

Hey Mysterious....How about posting what you have found out so far with your own research and post it here.

With the number of people on this site I am sure we can find many more "hidden gems of truth" that quotes and beans can use to advantage on their moved web page. I urge anyone but especially the ones that have been around for a while to check out http://Quotes.Watchtower.ca
and then if you can think of any more "gems" to add to their site post it here.

Hey Quotes,

Just want to add my note of praise for a great site.There is nothing better that having their own words come back and haunt them.

I might have missed it on your site but in case it is not there I have something for you that you may want to add.

March 71 WT

. There is a close interrelationship between the heart and the mind, but they are two different faculties, centering in different locations. is a marvelously designed muscular pump,The heart but, more significantly, our emotional and motivating capacities are built within it. Love, hate, desire (good and bad), preference for one thing over another, ambition, fear?in effect, all that serves to motivate us in relationship to our affections and desires springs from the heart.

June 86 WT

2 The ancient Egyptians believed that the physical heart was the seat of intelligence and the emotions. They also thought that it had a will of its own. The Babylonians said that the heart housed the intellect as well as love. The Greek philosopher Aristotle taught that it was the seat of the senses and the domain of the soul. But as time passed and knowledge increased, these views were discarded. Finally the heart became known for what it is, a pump to circulate the blood throughout the body.

Just another lovely little flip flop.I remember the District convention in 71 making a big deal out of the heart.They even had a large throbbing heart on stage for much of this presentation.

I was so impressed with the information presented in 71 and more than a little brainwashed at the same time. I felt so superior to those medical doctors who blindly only thought of the heart as a pump to circulate blood and not as it really was,a center of emotions.

In fact the whole word was in darkness with regards to this issue as everyone else in the whole world also viewed the heart as "only a pump"

I found it more than mildly amusing that when they finally noted in 86 that the heart was just a pump they didn't also note that they,not the Greeks, Egyptians or Babylonians were the last in all the earth to teach this idea

who has any good jw memories?

by ambush23 in

.

any stories about fun u actaully had in the orginazation?

Poztate

I do have one good memory.I returned to the JW's when I was 19.(DUMB) I liked a girl that was 17 in the congo.We used to have fun and do things in a group like was recommended at the time.We went roller skating and had group parties.I think in the year or so that I saw the girl I may have put kissed her a few times.My god we were PURE.

However her dear old Dad who was a STRONG elder found out about what was happening.He pulled me aside and told me in no uncertain terms that if I didn't stop seeing his daughter he would see to it that I would be DISFELLOWSHIPPED.

This was the first time I learned about POWER and how things really work in the WT .

4-01-04 WT - 666, mark of the beast

by Bonnie_Clyde in

i have been having problems posting for the last couple of weeks.

i've been watching for someone to post on this article.

i saw no reference at all to the united nations--only vaguely to the political powers.

Poztate

ThiChi,

You had the best insight into what the number 666 is all about.

I look forward to the WT lurkers and writers using it as "new light" soon.

Armageddon -- truth or fiction?

by robhic in

i happened to see something on the history channel the other night and, as i was half-listening, i thought the comments were made that the word/name "armageddon" doesn't actually appear in the bible.

i did a quick search thru my electronic "e-sword" bible program and couldn't find any mention of the name in any versions.

the history channel show said amageddon was a reference to the place where all of the armies are going to meet up to throw down in the final conflict that is called armageddon.

JWs target retirement homes

by Scully in

in a recent post (http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/67537/1051937/post.ashx#1051937) new directives to congregations by the wts included: it also suggests that the owners of all local old folks homes be contacted to provide a "free weekly bible discussion" to all elderly who want to attend in the home.

this is to be a planned weekly event to increase the number of studys pioneers hold and "provide a valuable service to the community" the society expect to see bible studies go up by 25% this year.. .

well, it is nice for us to get this heads up from the brothers?, isn't it?

Poztate

Going to meetings,personal study and out preaching are only ways for them to control what you think and do.This control gives them power over your mind,your body and your $$$$$.

For old persons,perhaps nearing death in a retirement home they can take a shortcut. The only way left for many old people to show support for "the truth" is with money. I believe many old people as they approach death almost try to make a deal with God by giving much or all of their money to the WT. I think if this plan goes forward it will become a very effective cash cow for the WT.

I posted before about inheritances and the WTS in my own life.I think of them being nothing more than thieves and grave robbers.They take money under false pretenses.Fear of death and the unknown prompt many old people to give generously in the last moments of life.

Poztate

YOU BET IT IS! That's because under the benevolent reign of the invisible crowned King, Christ Jesus, mankind has been subjected to many blessings, like triple-distilled vodka.

Nathan....I agree with you.I have always felt that we were already in the 1000 year reign of Christ.We will however not achieve true perfection until the price of the triple-distilled vodka goes down to $00.00

Watchtower prophesies against life on Mars [or elsewhere]

by nicolaou in

*** g73 5/22 p. 13 is there life beyond the earth?

well, to this day, after many probes to mars and thousands of pictures of it, there is not the slightest shred of proof that life exists on mars or other planets in the solar system or on any other planets in the universe.. the christian, particularly, knows that even a million landings on mars, venus, jupiter, saturn or any of the planets and their moons will fail to reveal evolution of life.

well let's just wait and see shall we?.....

Poztate

Man on earth can no more get rid of these demonic "heavens" than man can by airplane or rockets or other means get up above the air envelope which is about our earthly globe and in which man breathes

I don't know how you could ever doubt any "truths" about the universe and life in it.After all it's not like they have ever been wrong before.
