i just wrote this in an email to a good friend of mine, and i liked the logic so i thought i'd share..... imagine what an ass you would feel like if you refused to vaccinate your children back in the 50's based on wt policy and one of your kids contracted one of the incurable diseases that vaccines prevent?

i won't drink that kool-aid.

the wt track record on medical advice based on their interpretation of scripture is woefully inept.

Calling all ELDERS
by The Oracle in
1. jw
2. friends
if you are an elder who frequents this site, please let me know.. i am trying to connect (completely anonymously - your privacy is assured) with as many elders as i can.

i know that there are hundreds of elders in the same position as myself (have had our awakening and have come to realize that "the truth" is a sham).. i encourage you to continue to serve as an elder and for you to work together with other like minded elders as a collective force for true good.

there is much we can do from the inside to help the cause.. there are thousands and indeed millions of kind and honest hearted people whose only crime is that they have allowed themselves to be deceived and are still active jws.
