I started to do the survey, but ran into a problem right away. None of the six categories fits me. I am NOT an inactive JW. I'm not a JW at all, although I was one at one time. I'd rather you had a category for former JWs.

rationing organs for religious refuseniksfebruary 27, 2013 by adam lee 18 comments.
since new medical advances always catch my attention, i read with interest this article about "bloodless" lung transplants being pioneered at some hospitals - that is, salvaging and re-infusing the patient's own blood, rather than relying on transfusions from donors.

Well, it's a good question. It would certainly be a waste of a healthy lung if the patient died because of refusing blood transfusion.

Damn! He is back with the cult and even more zealous

I agree with the point about his honesty. If he has a relationship with you -- a non-believer -- you can bet he's hiding it from the folks at the KH. Do you really want someone who is capable of living a double life like that?
It's up to you, but the combined experience of many people on this forum says, "run!"

It is a terrible thing -- letting kids go knocking on the doors of strangers. So dangerous. It's one of the more dangerous practices of the wtbts.

40 years on - and still in Damage Control mode!
by Bungi Bill inearlier this morning, i posted off to the the institute of engineers an application for membership as an "engineering associate":.
- today being just over 40 years since the congregation's retards elders made me abandon my apprenticeship.. (in this part of the world, the pre-1975 hype was taken to that level.
not being content to prevent young persons attending university, they went one step further and treated with hostility any youngster who would "tie up five years of their lives" by entering into an apprenticeship.

I'm coming to this rather late in the conversation, but I also wish you the best of luck and I agree with you about education.

by Justitia Themis inyep.
you read the title correctly.. my daughter is a prosecutor who right this moment is prosecuting a dui crash with major injuries.
the defendant--the drunk driver--just tried to place an awake magazine with her while both of them were in the courtroom.. .

Hortensia
well, cool story, and I'm so glad you're both so successful in life. As for the DUI idiot, I hope he gets years in the slammer for injuring people like that.

I'm turning myself in. Lurking elders, are you listening?
by Eve Deceived ini think it's fitting for my very first post to be a thread on jw.net turning myself in to any lurking elders out there on a witch-hunt to cleanse the congregation so that god's choosen ones can "remain in god's love.
" so i'm sorry to all you awesome, truthful apostates on this site, but this thread is really intended for any lurking nazis -- i mean, the taliban -- ugh, i mean elders of the world's most "loving" cult religion.. i am an apostate.
here, i'll save you the trouble:.
