28so were do I go now that ive left the kingdom hall?
by arimatthewdavies inmany people for one reason or other have quit going to the kingdom hall me included!
i dont object to the people for they are clean well dressed human beings, i object to the way a prefabricated doctorine is distributed, useing hugh amounts of books magazines and media to attempt to study the bible,i feel obligated to say i agree with that method and under pressure to promote it, theirfore i stoped going because pretending to agree with this method and rendering lip service to it in order to keep from being disfellowshiped is a lie,and liers go to the lake of fire, .
so now that we have left the hall were do we go?

spanco - You have an interesting way of putting things!
You joined a couple of days ago and with just 2 posts you are almost ordering people about.
You will NOT get a reply to your other post from Atlantis; he and his other half Nevada have left the planet.
Another kind soul may respond and give you a current link to the book you seem to want.
I do not have it or a link. A please might have gone a long way!

When the tenets of someone's religion collide with standard medical practice.

When the tenets of someone's religion collide with standard medical practice, doctors are faced with a challenge, said Dana King, a professor of family medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina who has done research on the impact of religious faith on physical health.
And it happens more often than one might imagine, he said.
Christian Scientists, who worship at 11 churches throughout South Carolina, including in Myrtle Beach, are just one group with special medical preferences.
Jehovah's Witnesses, for example, forbid blood transfusions which, if performed on a believer, can be grounds for expulsion from the church.
Yet, occasionally a Jehovah's Witness comes to the hospital in need of blood.
"We try to routinely ask people about their religious beliefs," King said. And doctors will make every effort to document those beliefs.
On the other hand, sometimes people rethink their positions when faced with an acute health issue, he noted.
The tendency of the doctor is to treat illness and injury with all available means, but patients have a right to refuse treatment, and medical professionals are obligated to honor patients' wishes, he said.

For anybody who doesn't know the word "whuppin'"
http://www.nospank.net/brown.htm
A Good Whuppin'? By DeNeen L. Brown, Washington Post Staff Writer, September 13, 1998
"There was a ritual to whuppin's, and many of that generation talk with a kind of bravado about this rite of passage to adulthood. They tell tales of out-of-body experiences, of spiritual epiphanies, of praying to God, of the art of tearful fakery, of agonizing defiance against belts, of loyalty among siblings and not breaking rank, of the time so bad a parent broke a switch on a child's soft flesh. And they speak always of the wrong they committed and why they deserved it. "

km5/90p.7 Use Our Literature Wisely
THE COMPLETE DONATION ARRANGEMENT
2 At the end of February 1990, it was explained that magazines and literature will be provided to publishers and to the interested public on a complete donation basis, that is, without asking or suggesting that a specific contribution be made as a precondition to receiving an item. When literature is offered, voluntary donations will be accepted to support the worldwide work of publishing the good news. We have faith that Jehovah will bless this arrangement.—Compare Matthew 6:33.

Writing a Letter to the FDS
by cameo-d ini asked this question on another thread...but no one responded to it.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/199271/1/cameo-d-you-have-a-pm.
i am just wondering because i know some of you have written letters to bethel or to the gb.
but what would happen if you actually sent a letter and addressed it to a ficticious entity like the fds?

A letter sent to a branch office or Bethel will be dealt with by the service desk;
even if you addressed it to the GB, FDS or even Jehovah.
Normally they do ask for your permission to send a copy to the local elders.

Just Got Back From My First Assembly " Take Refuge in Jehovah! "
by losthusband inthought i'd start a new topic on my experience.................... just got back from the above assembly.......... here is my take on my first and last assembly.
9:40 song and prayer - half the people were still in the toilet...and no one was singing, i didn't have a song book (i am worldy you see!!
) so i just stood and stared at the odd looking fella on the stage miming, rather than singing!.

Had a wicked fall this morning
by Lady Lee inomg i got up and tripped over some cases i had on the floor.
i landed on my forehead, left knee and left fist.. my glasses moved up and dug into my forehead so i have some pretty interesting marks there.. i have a doctor who lives two doors down from me and he came over and checked me out.. i didn't lose consciousness or have other signs of concussion.
no broken bones.. but i am sore all over.. my doctor friend said if i have any problems to call him.

My Mother did exactly the same a few years back, she was black and blue!
The moral of the story; "Don't leave cases; where you can trip over them"
Hope you are feeling better.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses have a reputation of not stealing things from others, but they lie too much?

I don't have any experience with the stealing bit. BUT
The elders I know are certainly the most adept liars.
