I overheard a nauseating conversation . . .
by 144001 ini was in the produce section of a local market, when i happened to overhear the following comment: "we celebrate christ's birth every day of the year, not just on christmas!
" i turned and knew the nature of the source of the comment immediately, judging by the polyester pantsuit and delusional "deer in headlights" look on her face.
her companion replied, "but i like celebrating christmas and don't see anything wrong with it.

Organ Transplants...HELP!
by AwSnap ini am doing research on this and have found many, many references.
wasn't there an article from the wtbs that speaks of organ transplanting as 'on of our modern marvels of this time'?
it would be before they changed their minds and called it cannabalism (prior to 1967).

I am referring to those who died from refusing organ transplants back when the Society said it was cannabalistic. I sent CoffeBlack a message on Facebook and she isn't aware of any statistics because the WTBS would do their best to hide things like that. I figured she would be the one to ask since it hits so close to home with her. I can't even fathom what those families went through.

Does anyone know where I can find the statistics of those who have died from the refusal of organ transplants (not blood transfusions)?...reason being, since the organ doctrine changed, I am trying to show a jw how many people died as a result of *that*

Well, I have some goals and Resolutions:
1. I've been on a killer eating streak, focusing on what's good and bad for my body. My resolution is to keep up the good work!
2. Drink less booze
3. Keep seeing my therapist
4. Disassociate myself from the Jehovah's Witnesses in front of my immediate family and in-laws. If they take it to the elders, I will have a
DA letter in hand to give them. I cannot keep living a double life. And I will not worry about offending people all the time.
So what's yours?

How do active JW's spend their Christmas? What do they feel?
by dgp inhello to all.
maybe this is a stupid question, since jw's don't celebrate christmas, but, as jw's, how did you spend your christmas?
what did you feel when everyone else was celebrating?

I used to go see a movie every Christmas. I felt guilty that the staff had to work on Christmas, but I was also glad that I had entertainment for the day

Does anyone find it too painful to read the WTS publications?
by dissed inbeen out 13 years and even for research purposes, i find it way too painful to read this wt stuff.. and why?.
all the painful memories it brings back.
don't misread me, it has nothing to do with a guilty conscience.. it has to do with the real pain, the anger of being ripped off and lied too by the wts, the anger of seing how they have protected child molesters, sacrificed its followers by refusing blood transfusions, the treacherous way we and others were treated by the 'unloving brothers'.

Since reading the July 2009 Awake on "Is it Wrong to Change Your Religion" http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/bible/174959/1/No-One-Should-Be-Made-to-Choosee280a6-LIES-from-July-09-Awake ,
I've had a very tough time looking at WT Literature. Of course, before I saw that article, it'd been a few years since I looked at the literature without feeling angry. Now I look at it with sadness and a sickened feeling

Facebook condemned
by straightshooter inmy wife told me that at the last meeting, the elders announced that youngsters going to the skateboarding park were no longer to have any privileges in the congregation.
this is to prevent jw youngs to be rounded up if a drug raid was made at the skateboarding park.. also because of individuals requesting that they be friends on facebook that contain bad pictures, that anyone with a facebook account will automatically have their privileges removed.. sounds like the pharasees protecting the people by adding additional traditions upon them.. .
