What's Da Word On Weed, Mon?

i come to this site as my one-stop-shopping guide to scandals and controversy within watchtowerland ( much of which is about as real as world of warcraft).

i'm surprized i haven't read anything about marijuana and 'the truth".. weed is getting legalized all over the place and california, in particular, is loaded with whacked-out witnesses.

since it can be prescribed as a medical treatment (here and there), i imagine the wts might have to do some doctrinal gymnastics to df folks for using it.

Someone told me at the gathering at Lake Tahoe that if you have a prescription you can use it if you don't smoke it so vaporizor's are OK.

Also you could eat it or use a tintcure

just ron has received a couple of phone calls in the last few days from the rbc brother wanting him to come roof a kingdom hall.

now, just ron hasn't been to a meeting since december 2011, and certainly hasn't got a current volunteer form on file.

so i ask, are they desperate or just stupid?.

ldrnomo

They are users, if you have something they want they use it.

Watchtower said: Our meetings,

assemblies, and conventions help us to

have courage to speak with boldness

I spoke with boldness about the blood issue (fractions) and was removed as an elder.

The boldness the bORG talks about is speaking what they want you to speak from the bORG literature.

Why do most on JWN not share Ray Franz' views on GB equals SANHEDRIN?

by Fernando in

i was not surprised when i read this in coc, last week, as i had come to this view a number of years ago.. what seems surprising is that whilst many have read coc, few if any share this view.. are there any ideas why this might be?.

Do you have any statistical data for this statement?

i'm not far away from sending out a bunch of letters to all the jw's who i knew when i was one.

the letters are the accumulation of the last few months of research etc.

i've put a lot of effort into wording things just right so that that the jw's don't instantly throw it in the trash.

ldrnomo

As soon as they see your letter they'll just think about what they heard at the DC and then they will make sure their blinders on on good then they will label you as an..... ready for this? apostate

My first talk with JWs at the door while on vacation

by troubled mind in

jw
friends

this was the first time in almost eight years i have had a conversation with a jw .

we were on vacation last week at my son and daughter in laws home .

one morning the doorbell rang and as i went to answer it my daughter in law said she thought it was witnesses .

nugget said:Isn't it interesting that witnesses do not know what their current beliefs are.

I think many of them have stopped thinking. When they get to the meetings many become zombies they're there, they go through the motions and most of what's said does not register.

This I think is especially true for the under 40 witless population.
