I'm a bit puzzled by this story ,here we have JW's having invitro fertilization because they love to have babies ,and say they love the babies ,and yet are willing to let them die after so much trouble giving them life.!
And then I recall that the parents donated eggs and sperm and some of these fertilized eggs are frozen for future injection later if the first fertilized eggs fail. But on having multiple births they can then say we don't want anymore children ....so.....what then happens to the remainining fertilized eggs left over? ...they say the fertilized eggs are potetial human beings so they cannot kill the eggs off but they can let the preemie foetuses die from lack of blood.
I always thought true JW's could not invitro because of the dilemna of possibly having to kill the unwanted fertilized eggs ,or that they may be used in another womans womb?
Is anyone else on my wavelength here?

I'm with u wazzadummy - IVF that way = abortion!

As far as im aware - another person having the eggs would be adultery?

Just got the weirdest "Clippy" message from Microsoft Word!

by AlmostAtheist in

i was typing up a post and trying to sound sort of like a watchtower writer, intending to mock them.

i guess microsoft must be in bed with the watchtower or something, 'cause this message popped up: .

weird, eh?

What will it take for me to stop this?

i have lurked for over a year.

i keep coming back here - everytime i do - it's like witnessing a car wreck.

the things i don't want to read or believe are right here before my eyes - it's like a drug.

i'm a complete newbie so can't offer any advice - i didn't even lurk lol just dove right in hehe. i too find it very hard to live my life looking forward rather than behind in anger at what was taken from me.

it's nice to come and read and post and know that others feel the same way, it was an eyeopener

welcome

thats how i feel,..... no disrespect for those who find another way or place to worship.

i for one cannot stand any religion on any level.

how do you feel?.

I wouldn't say for the rest of my life but for the moment yes.

I'm just coming to terms with the fact that i hav been a victim of mind control - from my father (you're stupid, you'll never amount to anything, what happened to our relationship, you used to love me, giv me a kiss) and the Borg (you must live your life like we tell you then you'll be happy - no u cant be suicidal, u obiously dont pray enough)

At the moment i'm quite vulnerable and wouldn't want to be swept away by anything else before i know who me is, what my mind is.

the board is becoming my new religion for the mo!

Gays Not OK Pedos OK - WTF???

by hamsterbait in

it has just occurred to me that a gay man is very unlikely to be appointed to anything above holding the lollipops in front of peoples' mouths at the meetings.

even tho he gave up the gay lifestyle to be a miserable borger.. yet pedos are being appointed, and the wtbcs chooses not to know about their past.. why is this?.

is a gay more obvious?.

yeah weird isn't? Never really thought about it. but the borg is totally up itself. nothing makes sense.

Question for the Ladies?

by avidbiblereader in

what do you find physically sexy or hot on a man?

i need this info for my wife's sake, as she doesn't think 6 pack abs are that sexy.. .

abr.

Hmmm - a man who looks nice is ok but if he's constantly down the gym keeping fit how much time is he going to devote to ME??? i'm high maintenance! lmao im totally not.

my hubby is quite chubby he's an ex rugby player and has gorgeous legs and even though his tummy is probably not what it used to be (damn that gorgeous ale, guiness, stout, bitter....)ive never seen it any other way. i like to blow rasberries on his tummy and rub my nose in his extremely hairly chest

probably a bit too much info for you but i reckon so far your wife is being proved right!

just as most men dont find stick thin models that attractive - boobs and hips and bums are better - women dont need a guy with abs - love handles will do just as fine
