Unfortunately my wife keeps accepting their literature, I think she has become a placement goldmine.....she keeps bringing home more and more trash, but from what I know, there has been no financial support, even donations made.

My wife was in major JW mode last night, a few questions/comments I had
by insearchoftruth inwell last evening, after a pretty normal afternoon, my wife went out and when she came back she was pretty hyped up about the truth....she started to ask me some questions.....she started with the trinity (they gave her another copy of the trinity brochure yesterday) and all i did there was ask her to look at the first four verses of john, the verses in colossians where the wts added (other) and then the first bit of genesis....then simply asked the question...who created the heavens and the earth?
she went on a fact finding mission, never got an answer..... .
well of course she could not end with that....so she started on the existence of hell.....well question for you all here, she read some of the recent public edition wt and it talks about satan being subject to torment...in wts teaching is there a 'hell' for satan.. .

Thanks for the link jwfacts, book is downloaded!!!
sarahsmiles, some interesting information, she claims she is going to look into the references in the Trinity book, but I seriously doubt it, and right now she refuses to look up information on the JWs on any site but the JW site, so will not be able to do much any way......
I have pointed her to Jude with respect to archangels and the reference to Enoch where there are a few archangels listed by name (but I forget just how many).

Blood Quotes in Jan 2009 Awake
by Gladring inthe awake jan 2009 has a quote in it's watching the world.
"for almost 9000 patients who had heart surgery in the [united kingdom] between 1996 and 2003, receiving a red cell transfusion was associated with three times the risk of dying in the following year and an almost sixfold risk of dying within 30 days of surgery compared with not receiving one.
" - new scientist, britain.. for starters, this quote is not exactly straight from new scientist.

Transfusions should only be as a last resort, but in cases of massive blood loss, the choice is often blood or death....and I would choose blood (life)

As of now I am lucky and due to her not being in enough, no field service, plus she works most Saturdays, which I am sure they will try to get her to stop so she can go in service....you are correct, lucky to get three non-dubby days a week!

But I believe that the context/meaning must be the same as intended by the original author, doesn't it?

she has to WANT to find truth. But if you continue to show LOVE she may start asking GOD for it
Very true Mouthy......so many have told me just tell her what to do, you can not tell someone what to believe!
