My father in law is a PO in his congregation. A brother had lots of pages and scans of stuff he has got a hold of. Well the UN thing came up. We had mentioned it to him before, so he thought he would write to his branch and find out exactly what it was all about. Fair enough, go straight to the source.
His BOE got a nice little letter back about only becoming an NGO so that they could use the library!! AND as soon as they found out that this happended, they removed themselves from membership.
Nothing about being sprung by a newspaper anbd embarrassed into getting out of the UN.
Sadly my father-in-law thought that we would benefit from a copy of the letter. It might have answered one of our concerns and we might come back. We hadn't spoken about our situation for some time, and it opened the box of pandora. We spat out plenty. He mustv'e wished he had said nothing. Instead of two things that we were concerned about he now knows there are many many more.
Hope that he has a few bad nights of little sleep and the whole conversation haunts him for a while, he may even think about what we said!!
Do you think so? We hope so.

My Inlaws just told us the other day that they serve and dedicated themselves to Jah, not to an organization........can you believe it? Does this make them apostate?
We said not to go into their hall and say that!!!! they will be in for it, but sadly they didn't get the inference. They dont seem to understand the chain of command, no jesus as mediator, so they need the org and fds for salvation, don't they? -

"Haven't you played "The Sims"??? Of course when you do you want to control those little people. Then start interfering with their "interactions"? Then get the mod thing that allows you to put your own face on one, and get really involved?
God just left his Sims game running, while he has gone off to do the shopping, and his kids started fiddling about.....thats all!!!! -

I made a proposition to my dad - the ex-elder
by divejunkie inmy dad is visiting us this month...so we get to talking .
every chance i get i drop a "little" bomb about the wts - nothing big to cause an argument but powerful enough to make him think and not have an answer.
anyway, he is the ultimate "pack rat".

I want a "No Blood Card"!
by Bee inok, first off, let me make it clear that i'm no baptized jehovah's witness.
i studied for about 2 1/2 years, and was a publisher for about half the time.
i don't attend meetings, because..well.... i haven't yet summoned enough courage to ask forgiveness for my many wrong-doings.

The only way to get one is to be a "baptized" witness. They usually dont give them out to "unbaptized" publishers. Why not get the scan that jwfacts mentioned, print it out, get some adult friends to sign it as legal witness, nominate someone other than you mom as primary and secondary contacts and carry that with you?
keep it as uncomplicated as possible.
Trouble is if you are hospitalized in an emergency and they have to use it, the medics will call in the local hospital JW chaplain and he may then call in bigger guns, then because you are not as you say you are by the fake card, they may choose not to help you.
Couldn't you just wear an emergency bracelet, with the same instructions? NO BLOOD......?
Just trying to help.
