The JW female
by fullofdoubtnow in

2. friends
as a follow - up to dansk's thread on the jw male, i was looking at a bit of info in quotes, and found this bit of crapola from the august 22nd 1967 awake, which gives "reasons" why the man should be the head of the woman:.

however, the facts show that the headship of a man is both somatically and psychologically sound and in the best interests of all concerned, even as we shall see.

thus a leading authority on the human body (soma), gray's anatomy (1966 edition), tells the interesting fact that as regards the human skull there is no difference between the male and the female until the time of puberty; but then as adulthood is reached the difference becomes more and more apparent.

Intellectual dishonesty in the New Tract !
by AK - Jeff in
1. watchtower
2. bible
in reviewing the new tract i noticed some interesting dishonesty within;

on page three when the wts is describing 'false religion' riding on the back of the scarlet colored wild beast - they coyly refer to the beast as ' the world's political powers*'

- the footnote reads " * for a detailed explanation of this subject, see the book revelation - its grand climax at hand published by jehovah's witnesses.

Maybe Interesting Blood News
by truth.ceeker in
1. watchtower
2. medical
i had a meeting with my heart surgeon yesterday, and after informing him of our faith, my wife still holding onto to parts of the organization, the dr. said that, "there is a new form that just came out last year from your mother church in new york.

" what this document does is (1) make it clear that the person is not allowing blood to be used, (2) makes it clear that the dr. will have a court order ready in case blood is deemed medically necessary to sustain life and (3) absolves the person's conscience of any guilt if it came down to it.

i'm not sure if this document has been discussed before, but i thought that it was a bit intriguing.
