All my dad wanted in life was to have the perfect JW family... Instead he got a couple of faders, a child that ended up in gaol, a few children that have been disfellowshipped a number of times... I feel really sad for him! He wonders where he went wrong!

Did you have the perfect JW family?
by misspeaches injust wondering... how many of us had the perfect jw family?.
by that i mean, never in trouble with the elders, no loss of restrictions, no disphellowshippings, disassociatings, fadings, reproof - public or private.. of course most of us fit one of these categories.
what about any other families in your congregations?

I wouldnt have thought not for profit organisations would be allowed to deal in stocks and shares. Im pretty sure the whole not-for-profit category would prevent that one.

The REAL REASON JW's refuse blood
by DannyHaszard inbut they don't realize that what the bible says about blood is not the real reason why they refuse blood transfusions.
therefore what the bible says at matthew 24:34 is not the real reason they believed it.
here too the real reason will only show up if the society ever changes what it teaches about blood transfusions.

That above empty box was meant to say...
Sorry to be a bit naive, but has the ruling on blood changed recently that they can now receive fractions of blood, or has it always been that way?
Maybe I should have listened at times in the meetings?!

Outlaw, I do tend to agree with what you are saying, they do see themselves as much bigger than they really are. Perhaps if the JWs had been around as long as Catholicism, they would be up there on the numbers. I realise though that you are saying they shouldnt even compare themselves.
All I really remember them saying in the meetings was that they were growing at a much faster rate than the likes of the Catholic Church, I didnt really remember them saying that they were in the same category. It may very well have been said on a number of accasions, I tended to only hear about .003% of what was being said when I was forced to the meetings as a child!!

Just to be devils advocate for a second here outlaw... If there was 6 billion dollars in the world and I had 6 million of those dollars, I would still consider myself rich... Its not a massive chunk by any means, but its not a pathetic wedge. Its all relative I guess. Im not disagreeing with you, just saying...
