last night at meeting they told us to just use our blood cards from last year.
in the past they've always told us how important it was to get it signed every year so that people could see our current views as jw's.....doesn't this new arangement negate everything they've ever said in regards to this?
absolutely nuts!.
In fact, you've hit my sensitive nerve and I want to state in no un-certain terms that when blood policy is relaxed, I for one, will be getting on concorde to NY from London, getting a taxi to Brooklyn and posting my fathers picture up on the walls of the Watchtower just as at ground zero. And I encourage everyone else with blood policy victim relatives (dead ones) to do the same.
hmmm, guess I've just realised what my web site is going to become.

I bet all those who died without blood like my father are turning in their graves. When they ditch the blood policy alltogether it will be a cause for rejoicing amoung many people but also a cause for much anger amoung those with dead "blood policy victims". I trully will go ballistic.
i was reading "remembering" and it made me remember how deflated the air always seems when it comes time to stand and join together in song.. once in a while, depending on the cong.
i was visiting , someones voice would stand out in the crowd and sound like they were actually singing from their heart.
i remember the last assembly i attended several months ago, the man sitting next to me stood up to sing and i swear you could hear him over everyone else and there were over 11,000 people in attendance that day.
Here comes the mind control bit again. What another head fk, teaching all these people to "love" the truth... the truth consisting of mainly field service and meetings. Deep down, I bet most hate the meetings just as I did. But somehow I managed to hoodwink myself into believing I actually enjoyed it. God, what a martyr I was.
I don't know. How many people here remember Paul Hardcastle?
I think my signature may answer...
"In 1995 The Watchtower seemed like just another religion, but it wasn't.
It was different in many ways, as so were those that did the witnessing the average age of which was 46...
In the Anointed he was 90. N-N-N-Ninety."
without being slagged off for opinions expressed, without being ridiculed often, without constant smart ass one liners and put downs, how could we given the opportunity get along better together?
not utopia, not this, not that, just a simple question in need of simple upbuilding replies that enable this place more to reflect the care for others it supposedly sets out to achieve.. any comments?.
here we go (rolling his eyes) .... peace.

They say the tounge lives in a slippery place, well typos slip out too. Plus most of what I say is tounge in cheek and you wouldn't even notice with my keyboard skills.
coming from central pa - i get to see lots of quilts - and i have started to quilt myself - although i recieved lots of council about spending the long hours alone on a quilt ( the brother apparently never heard the words "quilting bee" ) i finally quit doing them for a while because of the pressure i was getting..... finnally when i realized that i needed to do some form of craft as a stress reducer ( from all the pressure from the borg) i told the elders where to go - and also said " i'd be happy to quit quilting - are you going to pay for the pyschiatri help and the meds they may prescribe??
this is therapy for me!!".
it shut him up for a bit.. .
Are you being stitched up or what?
ok you brits, i have looked this up before, but can't remember where, and only for the "legal" terms.. you have terms/slang for your coinage/bills that i can never seem to remember or get right.. can you list first the real name for denomination (lowest to highest), then the slang terms you use for that denomination, and then the american $ equivalent?.
what's a quid?
is it the same thing as a shilling?.
Englishman - I'm sure that the 20 you borrowed from me!!!
