Honestly, Would You Have Secretly Taken a Blood Transfusion?
by minimus in
1. jw
2. friends
while i was an active jw elder, i wouldn't have up until that last year.

that's when i was totally mentally out, just going thru the technicalities.

i still respect other jw's viewpoints on their not accepting blood----although i think they are terribly misguided.

Reject Worldly Fantasies, Pursue Kingdumb Realities?
by WTWizard in
1. watchtower
2. bible
according to the feb 2009 kingdumb misery, this is the title of the new hounder-hounder talks for public talks starting march 1. now, i can only imagine worldly fantasies include having a family, a reasonable measure of health and security, and being able to live a decent life.

kingdumb reality means throwing your life away out in field circus, attending boasting sessions, dutifully studying washtowel publications every tuesday all evening, and dying stagnant and having produced zero value in your own life.

by bronzefist in
1. jw
2. friends
it's -5 with a minus 30-35 wind chill factor here so you would think the "loving elders" would cancel the sunday borefest.....nope.

just got a call...."well of course it was your choice, but there were 70 in attendance this morning!!!".

there have been meetings cancelled because of heavy snow, but give me a break going out could be dangerous.

Field Service Spies

please excuse my ignorance.

enquiring minds just want to know.. when you visit someone in field service do you give a report with information about that person or household?.

is there a pattern of requirements that you must fill out, like number in household, spoke to male or female, something about their attitude?.
