  The Watchtower are Right About Blood...

  by cofty in

  ... but, they fail to take note of one important detail.. i believe that if we are going to have any chance of reasoning with a jw about blood, this is the place we need to begin.. don't try to convince them that it was only a dietary law.

  it wasn't, and they will never go along with it.. don't tell them that saving a life is more important than obeying a law, even a seemingly trivial one.

  they take pride in obedience.

  Like you said, this isn't a court of law, I can ask, but you don't have to answer. It sure says a lot though.

  Good day Mr. Fishy. Enjoy your meeting Sunday.

  Oh good grief, the deflecting and diving again. So you ascribe to the JW beliefs. You CHOOSE to give weight to their commentary despite other commentary to the contrary. You have every right to CHOOSE to ascribe to theirs, just own it like man instead of cowering like a little baby. You hold to the Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs. There you go, not too hard there was it?

  Once we know that, we know that there is no since in addressing you. You are choosing to ignore commentary that casts aspersions on the one that you hold so dear..................for 13 long years.

  Do you hold fast to the WT view of apostates and avoiding them at all costs, or just pick and choose their views based on importance to you personally, like choosing to defend their stance on blood or to defend their stance on protecting children from pedophiles while ignoring that one?

  Everyone else shows their cards here fishy. You are the only one that keeps everything hidden. You've done it on other topics regarding blood where I asked you directly if you would take a transfusion and you refused to answer. You did it on another thread about relationships when asked about your relationship status. Now you do so here as well. You demand answers of everyone else but never put your own views out there. Are you hiding something?

  So again I ask you, is the JW commentary the one that you choose to rest on?

  Your question about why I agree with the views here is stupid. I agree because of the reasoning and scriptures presented and because I can think for myself and see the connections.

  So again I ask you (two times in one post this time), is the JW commentary the one that you choose to rest on?

  Fishy - You single out wt because you are sore...

  This is your commentary? Source? Oh, that's right, I'm the source of my own post. I single out WT because:

  1. You are defending a stance on blood that is directly reflective of the WT view.

  2. You have defended WT in many other views on here.

  3. Oh, I don't know, maybe look at the title of this site.

  Sherlock would be proud of your skills of deduction.

  As I stated previously, I agree with the views expressed in this thread by Cofty and others. Those views have been rehashed enough on here as you can't seem to grasp them. You are the lone dissenter.

  So again I ask you, is the JW commentary the one that you choose to rest upon?

  Fishy - You commentary is trash - but it is your opinion and you are entitled to it; you are no authority here.

  How can you say this? Are you an authority?

  Fishy - wt is an authority to jw and their commentary matters?

  So then, is that the commentary that you choose to rest upon?

  Oh please, I wasted my time blowing up your arguments on other threads to no avail. You deflect and distort as you like to do. I asked why you are here because you only seek confirmation and don't look to learn or grow. Don't play the sad sack little victim. We are not fellows. You're a defender of the JW pedophile paradise and their suicidal narrow minded take on blood.

  I don't need to say anything on the subject of blood. Cofty nailed it both on the OT and NT fronts. You duck and dodge questions and I'm not going to let you paint the world on here with your distorted brush. You distort our previous interactions like you do the truth in matters here in this thread. Your entire modus operandi is to deflect and distract from the conversations being held, to take them over and make them what you want instead of what they are, much like you think you can tell others how and what to post. This isn't your playground. You don't make the rules.

  Let's face it, both you and I know that whatever happens, you have to have the last distorted word. You have to make sure that the last argument made reflects the JW world of Fishy. You have a goal here that is obvious. I sincerely asked you why you were here and you didn't answer it, deflecting as I predicted. You just can't be real and therefore deserve no respect.

  I'll let others continue their conversation with you on the subject matter, and I'll chime in when and how I see fit.

  I remember the first time I realized the context of the verses in Acts and how my mind was blown. In all my years that had never been mentioned, and I shredded my suicide cards as did my wife not long thereafter.

  I have no such sympathy. Fishy has been here 13 years and still comes just to stir things up. He deserves no sympathy. At a point it's willful ignorance based in obstinance and arrogance, or just plain evil.

  Fisherman concludes too little. Robots that are indoctrinated often lack the ability to think or reason, but rather let the governing body do so for them, the hallmark of any cult victim.
