  Bill Maher's comment on facebook about Larry:

  Larry Hagman - I'll never forget the time he taught me his recipe for the pot biscuits he ate for breakfast. You were one of the bestest, Hag.

  I saw this documentary on netflix and it does ring of many things that we can identify with.

  One woman talks about her gay daughter who took her life by hanging herself. The woman who was very religious rejected her daughter because of her religeous beliefs and refused to have a relationship with her, very sad.

  There were also some interesting thoughts on the scriptures which talk against homosexuality.

  Check out the doc if you have netflix.

  I recommend it.

  It shows how religion can tear loving families apart.

  A Mormon becomes a JW in the Feb 2013 Watchtower...

  by cedars in

  glancing through the feb 2013 "public" watchtower edition, an interesting article appears on page 8.. here is the pdf download link.... http://www.jw.org/download/?fileformat=pdf&issue=20130201&output=html&pub=wp&langwritten=e&option=trgchlzrqvnyvrxf&txtcmslang=e.

  it's interesting how, in the story, the young man's jw aunt and uncle switch him from mormonism to the jw faith using third-party material (the nov 8, 1995 awake!

  article), and he ends up becoming a jw after confirming on the official mormon website that the claims in the awake!

  1914 - It was the end of the world as we knew it - things got much better!

  by TheStumbler in

  i was having a conversation with a jw relative recently i casually mentioned how much better the world is than a few centuries.

  obviously the jw was incredulous.

  the next day i found an email in my inbox listing a few qoutes from notable people saying how the world has gotten much worse since 1914 and that 1914 was a pivitol year.

  Transfusion and Eating – no difference?

  by Marvin Shilmer in

  transfusion and eating no difference?.

  today i added a new article to my blog addressing what watchtower says in public view about transfusion versus eating compared to what it admits in private about transfusion and eating.

  its short and sweet, and of course documented.

  you used a reference from a publication nearly THIRTY years old, and secondly the letter stated what is obvious to all JW's. Tranfusion is obviously not the same thing as literally ingesting blood orally

  Regarding what Ethos said about a 30 year old publication my question is, did the truth change in the last 30 years. The illustration mentioned below has been in many bible study aid books through out the years. The illustration leads one to believe that blood just as alcohol would provide caloric nourishment to the body and this is just not true.

  I was the elder that the letter Marvin posted was written too. It was in response to a letter I wrote to the society concerning many things about blood fractions and why ones conscience could justify using some parts of blood but not others. In my letter, I told the society that the illistration used in the knowledge book where a doctor tells a patient to abstain from alcohol and the question is asked whether transfusing alcohol would be OK with the doctor. I stupidly used this illustration once when witnessing to a doctor and he quickly shut me down by telling me that it is not even close to being the same thing.
