  Watchtower Policy Claims Another Teenager

  by Lee Elder in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  a tragic story of how the watchtower unduly influenced or brain washed a 14 year old jehovah's witness into martyrdom.

  the real irony here is the synthetic blood that failed was a hemoglobin solution, and red blood cells are nothing but tiny doughnut shaped bags of hemoglobin.

  any thinking person will conclude that if red cells are blood, then so is hemoglobin.

  okay, i need to vent.

  as a newly awoken individual, i have yet to "come out" to my hard core jdub parents.

  my plan was to lay low and use my unbelieving husband and baby as an excuse for my "inactivity", it has worked for the last few months.

  shattered_origins there is a of evidence to suggest that kids under 2 should not be exposed to TV fullstop.

  TV is an easy thing to stop - so you don't even have to get all anti JW about it, just make it a TV thing period. There, thats one hurdle sorted!

  I Hate the Sound of the Word Jehovah

  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  listening to clips of the latest manipulative video from the watchtower i realised how much i detest that word - jehovah.. sometimes i have thought it would be interesting to observe a meeting or part of a convention.

  every time i heard that word i would be unable to stay in my seat.. i have a visceral reaction every time i hear it.

  it stands for so much that i have contempt for.

  Until your attacked by demons, the WORD comes in pretty handy. I've been attacked several times, believe me it sucks. I find salvation in that word.

  Sorry to derail the thread, but WTF is that BS quoted above?

  BrokenBonez: you need to get some mental help. There are no such thing as actual "demons." What you experienced wasn't real...it was all in your head.

  Cappy...Just sprayed me tea....LOL...I was trying to studiously ignore it!

  We talk a lot about conditional friends on here

  by cappytan in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so, when people post about being shunned by their friends, i've heard several posters say things like, "their friendship is conditional.

  real friendships aren't conditional.".

  i'm sorry, but that just isn't really true.. if you and i were friends, there are conditions.

  BTW…having gone through divorce and so forth, THEN a year later having gone through being shunned by everyone I knew including family, I’m not sure a friend sleeping with my wife would automatically be a dealbreaker for either my friendship or marriage. Of course, I’ve never had that specific experience, so I can’t say for sure. But being shunning made me reevaluate things. Apart from physical violence or sexual assault,isolating someone is one of the most worst things you can do to a person.

  I agree Londo 111, I think the JW's way over estimate how damaging sleeping with someone else is to a relationship.

  Sure, its not good, but I for one can think of a lot worse than doing one of the 3 things we humans are programmed by nature to do (breathe, eat, procreate)as you mention violence for one, sexual or otherwise.

  Edit: and isolation is TORTURE as you rightly said, its cruel. Much more unforgiveable & unnatural

  2. beliefs

  the trnity to me means the true nature of god essence,attributes each person of the trinity is equal the father the son and the holly spirit all share the devine nature ie three persons of the godhead are all equal in power ,glory and wisdom john 10:30.jesus and his father god are one meaning of the same nature mathew 28.19 jesus said all to be baptised in the name of the father and of the son and the holly ghost reprissenting 3 persons of the godhead to wellcome the devine trinity into your soul .

  I see Christ as the Father's Word manifested in the flesh, and the Holy Spirit as the Father's actions manifested as whatever was observed.

  Observed distinct from each other, reliant upon the will of the Father, and yet cannot be separated.

  Actually I thought that was quite well put, it's the nearest thing to understanding it I've ever come,anyway.

  the online mag opens with this bold statement :.

  "most people lie at least once during a ten minute conversation.

  why bother trying to be different?".
