The Medical Profession respects the wishes of the patient when treating her and she dies ,then the family sues the Medical Profession ? And they win ?
Their is something drastically wrong with the system when that happens.

31Bloodless Medicine....not all its cracked up to be.
by Lee Elder inthis is a pretty good example of the limitations of "bloodless medicine", and why the informed choice should always be "blood conservation" medicine, which retains the safety net of blood transfusion when medically required.
sadly, the watchtower fails to inform jws regarding these important limitations, and their potentially disastrous consequences.. http://www.dailyreportonline.com/id=1202750028414/jury-awards-100k-to-family-of-jehovahs-witness-who-died-after-refusing-blood-transfusion?mcode=0&curindex=0&curpage=3&slreturn=20160118223352.

The dumbing down of the religions publications .
The idolatrous aspect of JW.ORG
The constant begging for money.
Exulting the G.B.members to the " Faithful Discreet Slave Class"
Embracing the Internet
Embracing TV Evangelism
Vin Toole , G. Jackson , caught out lying under oath at the A.R.C ,( yet to see if any charges are laid against them.)

Aren`t their copyright laws against this sort of thing ? unless of course the W.T. has sanctioned this for a cut of the profits.
Lets face it , 8 million J.W.`s plus their relatives who are fringe dwellers , those that only attend the memorial once a year , another 10 million or so , a cut of the profits is not a bad business tactic.

Why haven`t Marvel Comics or whoever made a movie about Captain Marvel ?, when I was a kid I enjoyed comics about him more than I did about Superman , and I did like him also.
A kid on crutches that uttered the word SHAZAM and he became Captain Marvel to fight all manner of evil.like Sylvania ?

Baptised younger
by Sabin inso why do you think the borg is encouraging youngsters to get dunked sooner?
i reckon it's cause they are easy to victimise.
i mean, some-one could say, keep our secret, nobody will believe you & god wont love you, but think of the power they would have if they say "you will be disfellowshipped," on top.

I don`t know that youngster`s getting baptized is such a bad thing as I previously did.
Think about it .
Pre-teens have a lot to contend with growing up as we all know , hormones , puberty ,etc.etc.,you know the deal .
They are going to make mistakes , because of immaturity etc. , and fall foul of of the Elders and be brought before a JC committee , and are either DF , or marked as a bad association , or reproved .and they are children .
Any parent with any sense of responsibility for their child should know this is an insane policy that needs to be addressed .
That could be a wake up call , not only to the child but also their parents .
Who in their right mind expects children to behave like adults., apart from Jehovah`s Witnesses of course .
Hopefully they will wake up that this is a controlling cult , that requires absolute obedience , not to GOD , but to the Governing Body of imperfect humans.standing in the place of GOD.

Apparently Americans are God`s chosen people in JW land.
I thought the Mormons had that base covered .
I wonder what % of Americans are of the anointed class.?
Maybe coloured witnesses of all races , should take a leaf out of coloured actors to boycott the Oscars and do the same with the Borg.unless they get more representation in the G.B.

stan livedeath , good point from the Our Father prayer LOL.
The equivalent of Latin to English of the four Hebrew letters was JHVH , however more Biblical studies Including the WTB&TS, ,( can I I say New Light ? ) reveals YHWH is the more correct translation of those 4 Hebrew letters for God`s name .
And they admitted this in the first edition of the "Aid Book " as they said Jehovah was the most widely known and used in The world . Hang on , they claim Christendom has been hiding this name , the Churches don`t use his name , Bible dictionaries , Concordances , Thesis etc.about the Bible , have all concealed the name of God for Centuries
,Hogwash , Bullshit , and just plain lies by the WTB&TS. That name has been widely used in Christendom for Centuries
Many Churches throughout the world have the name Jehovah carved in stone .
The Jehovah`s Witnesses have made more changes on much more insignificant things than the accurate name of God , So one might ask is God`s name insignificant ? Can J.W.`s call him ALLAH ? I don`t think so .
Yet they won`t use the more accurate name for God who they profess to worship.
They claim to be Jehovah`s Witnesses , yet Jehovah may not be his real name ?
And Jehovah`s Witnesses don`t really care

Protest for Mandatory Reporting?
by Luther bertrand inon another thread, i have been having a discussion about protests in connection with watchtower policy.
one of the biggest and more re-occuring rebuttals to protesting at kingdom halls and assemblies is that it does two things: 1. it re-enforces the apostate "mentally diseased" narrative heaped on the xjw community by the gb 2. it causes people to withdraw and get closer to the borg.. what if we as a group took the protest to city halls and government authorities to raise awareness of the need for mandatory reporting laws, rather than protesting @jw events?
hell even geoffry jackson, when he gave his testimony at the arc, agreed that it would be "helpful".

Justice McClelland pointed out at the ARC that regardless of mandatory reporting of Child Sexual Abuse , if a person was aware of such abuse/ a crime , , he/she was obligated to report such abuse to the police or Child Protection Authorities ,it was their responsibility , Duty of Care. Accessory to a crime .
Jehovah`s Witnesses have tried to excuse themselves claiming Clergy Penitent , however the official doctrine of the religion is they have no Clergy / Laity distinction , so why under oath in a court of law do they make this claim ?
1006 cases of Child Sexual Abuse was handled by congregations over a period of 26 years , their are 3 Elders that handled each of these cases in their judicial Committees , that amounts to possibly 3018 grown men/Elders with not one of them reporting these allegations to the police. That is more than one a month for every month of every year for the past 26 years and no Elders reported this crime to the police.
And to this date not one Elder has been charged with a crime in Australia in breach of this law.
Why is that ? Why hasn`t their been any charges laid against those who failed to inform the police when clearly the law required them to do so ? regardless of mandatory reporting of an offence committed against a minor ?
These are the facts that need to be got out to the media , Newspaper , TV , Talk Back Radio , or whatever
