  JWs should deflect as they are taught and tell the elders that they have a more comprehensive medical directive lodged with HC provider, lawyer and family. And they should make sure that they do. That one is kind of a joke on top of being a sinister control tactic, it is simplistic in a way that is incongruent with modern care. The hospital version of just refusing blood is many pages long in the U.S.. it is complicated and comes with a detailed account of what is being accepted and rejected. Advance directives allow for time and thought. The wtbts version is clearly another control technique.

  Very Weird Experience During Recent Special Talk After Memorial

  hesitantly i attended this talk with my family and sat through it without batting an eye.. mentally i take myself out during the entire meeting some would describe this as daydreaming or zoning out.

  whatever the case may be, for some reason this particular speaker, whom i know of but not personally, got my attention the way he would say certain phrases.

  he cited some texts that directly advised the audience that faith in christ was the only way to salvation.

  I had one last talk by an anointed brother, memorial whose entire talk sounded as if he were denying JW teaching. At the Tim's, no JWs seemed even phased by it. Even the partaking bit . . .I think another brother stepped up to remind visitors not to partake. Weird dystopian meeting.

  Why calling Daesh/ ISIS a Mind Control Cult is of Strategic and Practical Importance -Steve Hassan  04/8/2016by Steven Hassan M.Ed, LMHC, NCC – 04/8/2016

  this morning, the new york times published an article entitled “radicalization of a belgium student turned bomb maker was invisible.” this piece, written by alissa j. rubin, details the conversion of 24-year-old najim laachraoui, one of the suicide bombers responsible for the attack of the belgium airport on march 22. rubin cites associates and family members of laachraoui, who all say that while he leaned toward a strict version of islam, and they did notice changes in his ideology and behavior, they never suspected he would be capable of such violent acts.

  I agree. I have felt this for years, but could not articulate it. The problem with ISIS is that it ends in violent deaths, almost inevitably.

  Calling every Muslim a terrorist does feed ISIS with new recruits, because human nature plays into cult tactics well.

  I am sure that the property will be much more useful for a hotel or retail chain to own in the tropical paradise vacation spot of Jamaica than it would be for the local Jehovah's Witnesses. The. Can use the local church or school to meet in!

  The name Nathir Salih is arabic or persian. Most arabs in america are Christian. Not a lot of jews, but the name is regional, not muslim. Even people with Mohammed as part of name are not necessarily muslim, though most are.

  NEW BLOOD CARD w/ FORCED COMPLIANCE also LEGALISM

  by apocalypse in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have looked around and i don't see this covered, so i am starting a thread.. 1) the new "blood card" goes beyond being just a "blood card".. 2) a new edict concerning compliance.. pay attention to the changes.. first, the new card is termed "advance decision to refuse specified medical treatment".

  the big change with the card itself is that it includes an 'override' of your "power of attorney".

  this is huge.

  Or just dont sign the silly thing. With all the id theft, this is a lame ass thing to do. The fact that They expect you to give the info and access to a committee is one darn good reason to refuse.

  "My lawyer has discouraged this since I have no control over an hlc and there is no reason to give unnamed persons access to my medical records or any say in my treatment."

  In fact as the HLC is not being given POA then you are just giving them open ended snooping rights. There is nothing useful they can do-all they can do is harrass you or your family about your choices.
