  some of you guys do not get that i hope to make these poor souls regret shunning my son......i can hardly wait to mention around the campfire how i so wish my son....their good friend.... could not be with us since "he is such a threat to the christian congregation".............

  i will let them know how much he was looking forward to the trip............i will let them know that how the fluck could he be a threat when he has nothing religious to say, nor will he ever come back to the hall and nor will i.........so how are we a "threat"????.............i dont know some of these guys......but i sure as hell want to wake some of them up!!!!!..............and am very close to doing that with two of them............oompa

  i will only hang with those like us on the trip.....and the one that is so close to being free.....

  and robdar............what the fluck???.........you must have no clue how close me and my son are.....you think i shun him?............and you are not surprised???.........what the fluck is that about?????.....i did not know you knew me so fukkin well??????.........thanks friend!

  Why The WTS chooses to shoot itself in the foot

  by besty in

  frank and barbara kavelin's recent disfellowshipping for 'apostasy' two years after they stopped going to meetings made me ponder why exactly the wts frequently pursues people long after they have disappeared off the jw scene.

  at first glance it seems a counterproductive strategy to make enemies out of people who would otherwise leave quietly.

  i've had the pleasure of getting to know frank and barb over the last year or so and i know for a fact that frank's story would not be on jwn and freeminds if he hadn't been disfellowshipped.

  Why would the WTS have left out the statement on where blood fractions come from in the Keep Yourself Book?

  by insearchoftruth in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  the information at the bottom of this post is from the keep yourself in god's love book, the appendix, and is a bit of the discussion of fractions......what i find interesting is this book uses a lot of the information from the november 2006 our kingdom ministry article on blood fractions, but omits the statement:.

  "of course many fractions are derived from blood that has been donated for medical purposes.

  this seems to be more than just an oversite.

  just a ditto on the donating blood issue.......they can save our lives (the donors) but we (jw's) can not save theirs or our bruddas and sistas............i have not carried the damm no blood card for three years now......just told my wife a few months ago...........oompa

  all said in the bible is about eatin blood......they only had two ways to use it back then......eat it or use it in worship......funny, but pagans and jews BOTH used the hell out of it in WORSHIP!!!!!!..............freakkin weird!!!

  there was one other way i guess.....as a dye

  but to ABSTAIN......the biggie jw word for no blood is ever allowed is somehow now kicked to the curb!......the only way they in the bible could abstain was to avoid what uses i wrote above........they had no medical use of it............and we now do.....and ya.....i will not use it today to.......

  worship, eat, or dye clothes or skin!!!!.................oompa

  so two of these guys going are just like us.....and one is almost like us...........i had dinner with one tonight and he could not believe that the one almost like us went along with his dub son and friends who did not want my son along..........life should not be this complicated........it can be tough enough just with normal relationships...........i have none of those really.........but i do feel more normal with those just like me/us.......those who used to believe it all.......and now dont...........small club but i really connect with us..........oompa
