do you think awake would find it immoral enough to drop a line, or - does such a practise even agree with bible`s minimum standards?
don`t forget: organ-transplant is allowed.
there is no verse in bible found condemning such practise.... see:.
Blood transfusions got damned as worst case in a JW`s life, worst than enything else one could imagine. Thousands of "watchers" all around the JW`s globe are watching that NO JW ever breaks this iron rule.
But it seems nobody of WTBS get a bad conscience when people get taken to the cleaner's - (like an X-mas - indian) to get enough transplant material on high money income.
I hope you did understand it. Damn.

I meant they should pay attention to such insanity in medice btw. transplant tech -and they should write an article in Awake or Watchtower. Besides: "watch" - what does they watch for instance? They are blind!
But I`m shure they do not.
My english knowleges are insufficient, sorry;-)

Hi all.
NO REPLY, no posting, no statement - neither from JW`s nor from non-JW`s - to such an important topic within 2 days(!) is also a reply;-(
I think more and more that we need a new type of mankind after armageddon. Consisting neither of rank-and-file-JW`s nor of non-JW`s. I am very sad about this facts. Its a shame. We need people with anticipating abilities and empathy. And with intellect too.

last night i was reading the new awake!
magazine (no, i'm not a glutton for punishment), in bed with my wife sleeping beside me.
on page 5, i read: "of course, some people see no good news on the horizon.

I had heard through the grape-vine that the JWs no longer believe that Armaggedon will be an earth-wide destruction.
Yes, what you`ve heard is right! (If Marvin Gay would be living yet, he would have heard it too;-)

in the event of a flu pandemic , i believe they would ban public meetings,presumebly they would be no convections.. should jws go door-to-door as this wouls transmit flu door-to-door?.

JWs would rather go to the KH sick, than risk Jehovah's displeasure and gossip in the congregation.
Yes, I`m afraid your thinking is right. Human common sense and logic is not asked. Normally, seen from a view of a sound mind, the elders had to warn their "sheep" before all eventualities that can endanger life (e.g.: a 70-years old JW, sitting many hours at 105°F in an assembly without drinking enough water is in a high risk to collapse or suffer under venous thrombosis). But it seems, this is not so important..;-(
Same problem if there is a flu epidemy. (Even a simple influenza-like infection can be dangerous, if denied many times)

Hi.
This is a good and IMPORTANT question.... What would really happen ? Do you really think they would cancel the meetings and door-to-door-service ? I`m not sure they will do so.. think they had NO report all the time...the JW-work would come to a standstill... no, I believe they rather would come together to meetings as usual, despite of highest danger and infectiousness.
What do you think? As an active JW, I`m very interested to get a serious answer to this question..
E.
an inactive, non-baptized person told my sister-in-law (faded, non-baptized) that the witnesses no longer believe that armeggedon is going be a world destruction.
does anyone know where she would get this sort of idea from?
this person is more in contact with active jws than we are.
scully
thanks for submitting this article.
Nearly the same as I`d posted to blondie.. I do not believe that a true and loving god will destroy a person only for the reason he is no JW, or worse: only because he is no baptized JW.. this thinking is paranoid in my opinion...

as far as I know - and I am an active JW - they say only those people, who FIGHT against Jehovah, will be destroyed in armageddon. The official website of the WTS says to the question "Do they (the JW`s) believe that they are the only ones who will be saved?" simply: NO. (That is something;-)
I think this makes a big different. But I will do investigations - maybe you are right;-)

They do believe that everyone who is not a dedicated baptized JW will be destroyed.
No. That is no relevant JW- teaching now. Absolutely sure. No rumor;-)
