There was never a debate amongst those that are paying attention. Anyone who thought that even for a second there would be a laxing in the shunning was a fool.
They will never. Ever. Ever. Give up that power.

I always told my kids: i love you but only as long as you knock on doors and believe the generation that saw the events of 1914 wont die before armagedon... I mean believe that the evil generation wont pass away.... I mean believe that the lives of some who saw the start of the sign of the end would overlap with the lives of some who will see end.... I mean believe that organ transplants are canablisium.... I mean believe organ transplants are a matter of conscience... I mean believe that blood transfusions are wrong.. I mean believe that some blood is blood ok as long as its broken up into 'fractions'.... I mean believe that whatever was printed most recently in a watchtower is absolute truth no how stupid or contradictory it may be.
Very well written article

How many times were you told, "You Just Don't Qualify Yet to be an Elder"
by John Aquila inyou think it's the holy spirit that appoints the elders, at least that's what new jw males are told.
the culture within the organization dictates to all young male jehovah's witnesses that unless you are an elder, you will not get the sultry, passionate- brunette, the voluptuous, curvaceous,- blond, or the seductive, erotic, red headed-vamp..
so unaware of the social forces that are shaping your mind, you succumb to the dictum issued by the governing body to conform to the structure already in place- if you want to be successful.

What would happen if you drop a fake check or bill in the donation box?
by StarTrekAngel inwhat would happen if we started dropping fake check or bills inside the donation box of an assembly?
i know, is a crime, but so is pushing someone to not accept blood and die.
would it help skew the numbers enough if enough of us did it?.

Its not just "illegal" in an abstract sense, in the USA both are criminal. Dont set yourself up just to cause a minor inconvenience to a local cult. -

Amateurs Built the Ark
by enigma1863 inare you familiar with the motto "professionals built the titanic amateurs built the ark?".
i find it somewhat annoying.
i've been looking for a good analogy like amelia earhart was a professional pilot dorothy was just a girl from kansas but she got back home..

Thats a rediculous saying because it compares two unalike things. You may as well say "egyptians built the pymarids but the acients built atlantis"
noahs ark wasnt real. comparing it to the titanic is pointless.

Has science replaced the bible? WT June 1 2015
by stuckinarut2 ini picked up a printed copy of the june 1 2015 public edition wt..... before the end of page 1, the stupidity is already evident.. they quote a dictionary, but don't list which one.. they quote a "world- famous physicist", but don't give his name.
the quote looks like it is edited to fit their reasoning.. they quote "others", but no reference to who they are is provided.. the next page quotes "a popular science writer" who??.
then the classic line "jehovah's witnesses respect each person's right to make a decision on this matter".

I wonder if this will be a new wt trend, citing but not actually quoting, people. After that recent debacle misquoting a scientist who called them on it this seems to make sense. They get to borrow supposed experts but can easily say anything they want attributing it to some a supposed authority. The rank and file eat it up as truth and theres no risk of exposure
