  Clueless is right, Magnum. You can see them turning their facebook profile pictures to blue "jw.org" squares. Their instagram photos are tagged with stuff like #paradiseiscoming. I think they believe Armageddon will occur in October.

  Can't wait for November. :)

  Can JW's get themselves sterilized?

  by Splash in

  can you be sexually sterilised?no, it is absolutely wrong - w59 7/1 p. 416 questions from readers.

  however, it is absolutely wrong for a person to think that in order to stay free for the kingdom service and avoid family responsibilities in the way of children he is justified in getting himself sexually sterilized.. .

  no, it is harmful - w61 12/1 p. 735 questions from readers.

  My brother-in-law is a true believer JW. He recently got married and they want to go to the WT couples school together and serve the borg as fully as possible. They don't want kids so he had a vasectomy. He did this because we are so deep into the last days and kids would get in the way of their spiritual goals. Besides, Jehober can restore his reproductive powers in the new system anyway, right?

  The guy is in his 20s and he likes kids. I'm sure this decision will not come back to haunt him down the road.

  As an interesting side note, my driver's license says I'm an organ donor. This guy's sister gave me a hard time about it because she thought that was against WT policy. But looking at this thread it's no wonder most dubs don't know what the current WT stance on any subject is. Depends on the day obviously.

  I found a JW.org tract at work

  it was sitting on a table for the public with magazines like field and stream.. so i picked it up and took it to the bathroom.. i ripped it to shreds.. i dropped it in the toilet.. i urinated on it.. then i flushed it down.. i'm not gonna lie, it felt great!

  .

  if it keeps one person from becoming another cult member then that's something to be proud of..

  I've noticed some of the dubs have turned their facebook pics into blue jw.org squares this month. It would be funny to see some parodies of that.

  Why WT reform would never work

  i used to think how great it would be if the wt finally made long overdue changes.

  higher education would no longer be frowned upon.

  men could have beards.

  I do have a certain amount of respect for the Worldwide Church of God for admitting they were wrong. My opinion of the GB would go up a notch if they did likewise. That would put them at notch one. Interesting discussion here: http://www.jwstruggle.com/2011/09/jws-and-the-worldwide-church-of-god/

  They've painted themselves into a corner. So we see them ramp up the control on the inside while outwardly trying to appeal to the modern public.

  Exactly! While it badly needs to reform... it would crumble. But as it is it's stagnant. It smells of death, as aging congregations lose elderly members to the inevitable.
