  Blood Transfusion Permitted

  by Nevuela in

  i just overheard an anointed acquaintance on the phone with a friend of hers who has just had surgery for cervical cancer.

  among the snippets of dialogue i heard on my end of the line, these ones stood out:.

  "you lost a lot of blood?

  If this thread was titled to create the illusion that somehow wt hq had approved a blood transfusion, the whole thread is an epic fail.

  If it was designed to draw attention to the general contradiction in jw logic, that you can do anything you want before your baptized, including taking blood, and be forgiven, im not sure thats newsworthy. All christians believe that, hence the “death bed” conversions of centuries past.

  That the loony jw of your story claims to be anointed is of no value to the story one way or another.

  Just a small dose of logic laced cold water. Continue on.

  on tv.jw.org kenneth cook jr. discusses how important it is to be honest when applying for special assignemts.

  he mentions health and viewing pornography.

  those who viewed pornography during the last year should not apply.

  "Governing Body Procedure," a secret rulebook

  by john.prestor in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in crisis of conscience, raymond franz reproduces a letter sent to him from someone representing the governing body in which they thank him for returning the text, governing body procedure.

  franz says nothing about this text any other place in the work, but i've been trying to track it down, because it sounds like another confidential manual like shepherd the flock of god.

  i doubt it's been leaked (i'm shocked, pleasantly, that we even have circuit overseer guidelines, the confidential manual used by circuit overseers) but you never know.. is anyone else familiar with this work?

  My post was not relevant. I was confirming the publications exisistance but you already knew it was real. I dont have a link for a copy, but second hand, i hear its dry. Simple procedures on weekly meetings etc etc... not even as interesting as the flock book.

  Should Voters Be Made To Prove They Are Eligible To Vote?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i believe that just because someone shows up at the voting booth, it doesn’t automatically qualify them to be legitimate voters.

  i think it’s not unreasonable to provide proof that you are qualified..

  Has it ever occured to anyone in the USA that your country is just too big to manage as a fair democracy (in terms of people numbers not land mass) and maybe the whole federated states thing is becoming tricky to manage?

  Nope. Works just fine when people play by the rules.

  The Only Real Power You Have Is Personal Boycott!

  each person counts with their personal vote.

  you might complain about a restaurant or a car dealership or about something else.

  when you didn't get what you paid for.
