Makes me think - how does the blood issue apply to those baptised as minors -especially 7 year olds? Just goes to show - there is no way a 7 year old of non-dubs could / would ever be baptised ...so therefore they have no maturity to choose their religion or anything that entails.

Does "mature minor" status happen elsewere in the world?
by kwintestal injust wondering ... in canada minors can apply to the courts to get "mature minor" status and refuse medical treatments (ie.
blood).
this makes the news when it happens as it usually is a big deal.

Great Experiences- I was serfing the net ad came across APOSTATES
by You People Are All Idiots inwow, yeah i was looking fr the theocratic ministry school oral review questions and i came across an apostate site!
the site was www.jehovahs-witness.com and was just fill of retarded apostates!
they were not only using a domain name and header name that denotes a conection with the actual watchtower society, but where using it to blasphem the jehovah's true organization in order to help people break away.

wonder if it will come back and play?
He'll certainly come back to read. Imagine - instead of re-googling (because he hadn't a clue what the Watchtower's (his own religion) official web address is - even though it's on the magazines) to find what he REALLY wanted, he took the trouble of registering (on a site he wasn't looking for) JUST to insult strangers.....and you have to admit, he must have taken ages to come up with such a super forum name, surprisingly spelt correctly.

Why Doesn't The Org Feed It's Delegates Anymore?
by Englishman ini hear that food is no longer available at assemblies.. is that right?.
not even a cup of tea?.
this can't be right!
-
MidwichCuckoo
brothers and sisters could miss most of the assembly preparing or cleaning up after.
This is the reason I heard - that those preparing food were missing the assmebly and it wasn't fair to them!

do JWs believe in dinosaurs?
by tsunami_rid3r inthe bible doesnt mention them at all.
so what the hell?

Well they must believe in dinosaurs because they had a picture of that little one in the back of the green bible.
Of course you're right Katie - but what about the newer prints? Have they flip-flopped? Has the dinosaur been airbrushed out along with 1914 from the Awake (or WT?) ? Oh - and as dinosaurs were PRIOR to Noah - what about the carnivorous (have I spelt that wrong?) ones?

Loubelle - regarding Jeff's bullet points above - I have RECENTLY been made aware of point 2, but didn't know point 3 until NOW - the 2 look unrelated to me.
The part I quoted was point 3 - the Society putting property ownership before religious stance for financial gain. You responded point 2 (I have recently learned this - is it still ongoing?)

Why do they want "to reach as many people as possible"?
Have they any other goal?

In each demonstration, show a different way to handle the potential conversation stopper "I'm busy."
But don't they realise ''I'm busy'' doesn't MEAN ''I'm busy'' - it's called tact - oh, silly me.....

Thanks LouBelle (and ''hello'' ) - I have recently learned about the hypocritical stance you mentioned -
The mexican thing has been going on for decades
Is it still current? The quote I wasn't aware of was about the Society being very astute in property ownership (sod any ''religious'' stance) - are the 2 related?

dinosaurs didn't ever really exist and that it was Jehovah who merely put the bones in the ground
I heard that too Happy Guy. Do you think it's true? I'm not so sure......
