Need help in discussing the blood issue with some friends.........
by MarkAnthony ini got into a debate with 2 other friends (one a mormon and the other jw, i'm rc) about the blood transfusion issue.
the jw friend cited: genesis 9:4,16 leviticus 7:26,27 & 17:14 acts 15:28,29 & 21:25
i cannot for the life of me see how anyone can read those and honestly beleve that what was ment was to reject blood to save life!

Would you buy this XJW coffee mug?
by coult9056 inbecause i have a sense of humor about the many failed prophecies of the jw's, i've always wanted some ex-jw merchandise with some class and humor to go with it.
i've considered marketing a few of my ideas.....coffee mugs, shirts, etc.
there are so many areas to go (no blood, no military service, college = devil's propaganda, etc.

by coult9056 inthe 12/18/04 issue of the economist magazine has a cover story titled "the end of the world: a brief history of an enduring belief.
" the article briefly discusses the history of apocalyptic beliefs from john darby's concept of rapture, william miller's failed prediction of christ's return on october 22nd, 1844, to the churchof seventh-day adventists.
quote: they were not the only ones to rise above apparent setbacks to the prophesies by which they set such store: the jehovah's witnesses of the persistently apocalyptic watchtower sect survived no few than nine disconfirmations every few years between 1874 and 1975.
