  a 21-year old woman from argentina is refusing a blood transfusion.

  here's my translation from spanish, plus the original spanish for anyone to check.. http://www.laautenticadefensa.com.ar/noticias.php?sid=84322.

  I believe the WT has allowed some leeway recently... now you're allowed to accept a blood transfusion as long as you cry during your Judical Comittee hearing and say you failed Jehovah... then they'll forgive you or look the other way...

  In my case I suspected something wasn't quite right in 2007 when 1935 was quietly swept under the rug when no one was looking. I then starting lurking on some sites for answers and stopped lurking in 2009... Then I received my April 15, 2010 study edition of the Watchtower and read the BS about the Overlapping Generations several times until I realized the WT was back-peddling again... I then read COC, In Search of, Gentile Times Reconsidered, Finished Mystery, a few rainbow books and that was it... My last meeting was on Sunday June 6, 2010... I walked out before the Public Talk finished... the speaker was rambling on about satellites being signs in the heavens... i just couldn't stomach it any more...

  can't wait until June 6, 2011 to celebrate my first anniversary of escaping the cult...

  I love the "advice" given on page 2, paragraph regarding "street witnessing"...

  Take the initiative: It is generally better to approach individuals rather than to stand or sit in one place waiting for passers-by to approach you. Smile, make eye contact, and have a calm, friendly manner. If you are working with other publishers, it is usually best to approach people separately. Initiative is also needed to follow up on the interest that you find.

  In other words: "Stop counting your time by sitting around like lazy parasites... get back to work!!!" -Governing Body

  According to WT 8/11: YOU MIGHT BE MENTALLY IMBALANCED IF YOU PROFESS TO BE ANOINTED!!!

  Really? Doesn't the GB represent the annointed around the world? Exactly how are they supposed to do that if they don't even know who they are?

  Either they use telepathy, or they themselves are mentally imbalanced...

  Kingdom Hall Librarys : Can you still Veiw Older Publications ?eg:Russells,Rutherfords books ?? or even books from the ~50s

  by smiddy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i`m just curious if such books as "life everlasting in freedom of the sons of god " " let your will be done on earth" etc.

  are still available in the kingdom hall libraries and if they are then that should be a wake up call to all jehovah`s witnesses.. if they are not then that should be an even bigger wake up call to all jehovah`s witnesses.

  the bible has never been altered in 2000 years under the direction of holy spirit.

  No one ever had time in my KH to look up anything in the "library" (old or new) since the back room would always be occupied by elders and a spiritually weak brother or sister in the hot seat...

  Needed Organizational Changes for WT

  by Kosonen in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i am concerned about the spiritual welfare of the jehovah's witnesses.

  surely we all have noticed an unhealthy development in their leaders attitude, the "governing body".

  they have more and more begun to emphasize their importance and their power, in the literature and talks and thereby drawing unnecessary much attention to themselves.
