The phrase "one of Jehovah's Witnesses"
by Ding injws don't say, "i am a jehovah's witness.".
instead, they say, "i am one of jehovah's witnesses.".
what does the second way of saying it convey that the first does not?.

its about exclusivity. they worship jehovah--the rest of mankind dont. ( daft--i know--everyone worships god--regardless of what name has been assigned to him ).
its like if you ask a jw a question--they answer "we"--rather than "I"
we believe this--we dont do that etc
exclusivity.

Ending Bible Study
by Maria Nieves ini have been studying with jehovah's witnesses for approximately two years.
initially, i liked the studies and felt that i was growing closer to god.
however, as the studies progressed, they seemed to become increasingly negative and i did not like what i was being taught.

another idea--Maria--why dont you invite your study conductor to join you at a cinema--or theater or whatever you like---see her reaction .

The Strange Case of Don Decker on Unsolved Mysteries
by Tenacious ini know many members on this forum no longer believe in the christian god of the bible.
and we should all be respectful of each other's beliefs.
no one should be vilified for not believing or vice-versa.. though we all share one thing in common and that's falling victims to the vermin governing idiots.. going back thousands of years, our planet has experienced strange occurrences with many falling under the paranormal umbrella.

The awful treatment of my disfellowshipped cousin still continues
by RULES & REGULATIONS inmy cousin was disfellowshipped twenty years ago when he was 18 years old.
he admitted to the congregation elders that he was fornicating with his ''wordly'' girlfriend.
the elders were following him and hiding in their cars to see what he was up to.

Jehovah's Witness parents prevent blood transfusions for three children
by Not_Culty infeb 26 2019 jehovah's witness parents prevent blood transfusions for three children.
the father said he was entitled to refuse to consent to the administering of a blood transfusion as he firmly believed that there were "medically acceptable alternatives that are as effective, if not more effective".. https://www.timeslive.co.za/news/south-africa/2019-02-26-jehovahs-witness-parents-prevent-blood-transfusions-for--three-children/.

i think if a parent refuses a child a blood transfusion--and the child dies--then the parent should be charged with murder.

Well actually Giordano now that you mention that last part I had an experience as a little girl where my JW relative sexual assaulted me. Turns out many years later he did it to more little kids and was going to jail cause their parents told. I have no idea if the elders knew about it long ago, no one probably told them. But I could use that as a stumbling block.
if elders come calling--why dont you just say your lawyer has told you not to talk to any jw's as there is a lawsuit pending with a probable multi million dollar outcome.
i doubt they will be back
