hello all, first post.
i've been lurking for months and figured it was time to post a few things, i've been pimo for the last couple of years.. i was doing some thinking about an adult refusing a blood transfusion, especially one that has several children.
when you married and had children, you signed up to take care of them, to love and protect them.
watchtower promotes higher education.
progress of spanish women.
the dean of madrid university got himself in dutch with the women of spain when he came out with the proposition that the women ought not to obtain higher educations, but that their place is at home.
Beth Sarim:
Yes your right, it is very scary! Some people have said that JW's would drink deadly koolaid if instructed to by the governing body. However, a lot of JW's are waking up and leaving.
Kingdom Halls that are less than half filled shows evidence of this. But also, I think a lot of JW's are getting tired of being shuffled around like cattle, and forced to drive extra miles just to suit the changing minds of the GB.
They never show JW's leaving world destruction going to the new world with ipads in their hands do they?

Yes, most JW's won't even know what a Golden Age magazine is. But isn't it true that OLD LIGHT never stops with the Watchtower.
What they believe today, might just be OLD LIGHT six months from now.
One day they may start to think that the Bible itself is OLD LIGHT, and just use their smart-phones and tablets. Almost that way now.

redvip2000:
Your probably right, because I have heard the same comment from others who attended a college. Women are certainly holding their own when it comes to education. A TV commercial I saw the other day showed that over half of the law students in one university were women.
But of course, those Golden Age articles are pretty old.

episode twenty seven - georgia is shunned by jehovah's witnesses.
georgia grew up in what jehovah’s witnesses often refer to as a “divided household”.
her mother was a faithful jw, her father violently opposed.

Listener:
Absolutely! These words deserve a nice frame and hung on the wall. And they apply for Watchtower officials too.
I hope more victims find the strength to see that their abusers are brought to answer for their crimes. No man is too important to be brought to justice, even one of the highest Catholic officials.

this is a little hard to believe.
(2018 article).
this article must have slipped by me because i never heard of this before.. .
john.prestor:
Yes, I see your point. Does sound like some sort of a "set-up" doesn't it? I think the Watchtower claimed "planting evidence" was involved.

Yes, I agree with ElderEtta, Good for her! Talent like that shouldn't be wasted. She deserves a lot of credit.
