Evening Gill ...made me think (after hearing this) the different stories R&F are being told (as 'fact' of course!).

Incredible - local JWs are defending this by saying that the newspapers haven't got the full facts and that Emma Gough didn't die through lack of blood, but died from a heart attack around 3 days after giving birth! They even know she complained of feeling ill, then died.

Do Witnesses Care About Chronology Anymore?
by minimus inlet's say christ threw the devil out in 1914, so what?
does 1914 have any real signifance to a jehovah's witness anymore?
all i can see is that "this proves we're living in the last days of the last days".

JWs have never been able to do the maths anyway (or bother to understand) - they just trust that those above them can...when the maths changes, nothing changes to them...

Has a GB member ever died from refusing blood?
by LtCmd.Lore inhas a governing body member ever died from refusing blood products?.
and do you think he would if the problem arose?
or do you think there would be some quick 'new light' on the subject?.

Chances are against it - but I think if one of them did, it would be covered up.

I don't know what to say - it all seems very odd.
we continued cleaning the hall every Sunday after the 4 congregations finish meetings ( we do that to this day, and they are purposeley extra messy, but it is the only priveledge we have left)
I don't call cleaning up after a load of ignorant, unChristian idiots a ''PRIVELEDGE''? You are struggling to remain dedicated to the WATCHTOWER Society, and you probably believe (as you've been taught) that the Watchtower is GOD'S Society and your only Hope. Now think...would God condone this treatment?
I'd advise you to find out a little more about this man-made Organisation and here is a good place to start. Best Wishes, Midwich.

Why the change in how the Watchtower deals with the Media?
by Gill inwhy the change in wtbts policy with regard to how they deal with the press?.
not so many years ago the wt took the stance that it would not deal with the press except with direct statements, no questions to be asked.
who doesn't remember the disasterous attempted interview with ted jaracz in the panorama pedophile coverup where he arrogantly dismissed the panorama reporter and he looked a total arse!?

The interviewer also questioned the penalties of receiving blood, and Gillies responded that if a JW didn't accept any of the WT doctrines, then he is saying he doesn't want to be a JW (in other words, D'fed!)

You know the old saying Gill - the best form of defence is attack! Get in quickly before the press have a field day? Maybe they're just responding immediately to try and diffuse any MORE adverse publicity? Just a thought

Good post Gill I haven't seen the Ted Jaracz/Panorama or 'Scotland' 'interviews', but did see Paul Gillies this morning on BBC. I haven't seen him before, but he struck me as being a 'nice' chap. I wasn't happy by him saying that they 'only Baptise Witnsses as adults' - we all know that's a lie - but to the average viewer it gives the false impression that this young Mum made her own decisions on informed choices.
