  Witness accepts transfusion to save life.

  by bigmouth in

  2. medical

  my wife, who is studying midwifery, has just finished watching an episode of maternity ward wherein a dub by the name of yvette thompson was having a caesarean due to fibroids among other things.

  she told the doctor she wouldn't have a transfusion because of being a jw.

  her 'fiance' said he disagreed with her stand but he would intervene if need be.

  The Final Truth?

  by Mistah MOJO in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  "the final truth is that there is no final truth.

  " this statement was contained in a recent email from a close friend who is an existentialist, and by extension a nihilist.

  how many here would agree with this?

  Why call themselves "Christian"?

  by poppers in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  never having been a jw i don't quite understand why they call themselves "christians".

  if jesus is not god and is not to be worshipped as such, but is something "lesser", then it doesn't make sense to think of themselves as christians.

  to claim to be christian, then, seems to me to make themselves hypocrites from the very beginning.

  Why the Watchtower Society Interprets Genesis Non-Literally

  by AlanF in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a literal interpretation of this passage shows that the author of the passage viewed the earth as the center of the universe, with the sun and moon going around it.

  just why does the watchtower society view passages such as in joshua 10:12-14 as not literal?

  the creation account in genesis and exodus.

  Were YOU Depressed When You Were A Witness?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i've seen soooo many witnesses taking meds or alcohol because of unhappiness and depression.

  i know of one woman who regularly gos to her shrink and is the most depressed person that i know of.

  personally, i believe it's because a jw can never do enough to satisfy god or the elders....what do you think?

  BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS Twisting a life-affirming law into death

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  turning a life affirming rule into a death-dealing policy is an amazing accomplishment.

  we can thank the watchtower society for a mindset which makes this possible.. i've gone into great detail before about the watchtower blood policy itself.

  it is a blatant and deliberate publicity stunt which takes the rather simple prohibitions of the laws of noah for gentiles on murder .

  Joined as Adults--How has your thinking changed?

  by lonelysheep in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  how has your thinking changed from growing up worldly, to joining jw's, and back to normalcy again?

  i began studying at 21 and stopped at 25, without getting baptized.

  i no longer seek out anything to satisfy my inner self.
