Here's a link to JW org to a Brochure that can be downloaded that summarizes some of the doctrinal positions of the organization. It was produced in 2012.
It provides a good summary of what blood products are acceptable and those that are not. In so doing, it also makes them look like fools since there is no basis for their views. It provides an easy reference for discussing their stance when talking with JWs.

New Store called Best Life Gifts
by Franklin30 ini noticed a recent post where it was suggested the store was taken over by hostile means!.
the person who posted it pretended to have knowledge of why the store changed names but clearly was operating with an agenda!
one filled with lies, misinformation and deceit!.

There is so much nonsense they're trying to sell to gullible JWs. Just one example is a tote with "just around the corner" written on it and pretty flowers. I'd link to it but don't feel inclined.
Who cares if there was a hostile takeover or not, both businesses should be ashamed of themselves.

Franklin30 since you are able to clear up the rumour about Ministry Ideaz and the sale of their shop I am wondering what you can tell us regarding Ministry Ideaz and Gerrit Losch.
I have read that the owner of Ministry Ideaz paid for him and his wife to visit his family in Equador. Could you advise what you know regarding this matter?
Also, how much does Ministry Ideaz pay it's employees in Equidor?

Thanks for having the courage to share your stories. This may even impact your previous JW friends and acquaintances, who now know more of the facts behind you leaving.

You're spot on with this Sparrowdown. These businesses are leeches on an already ugly Watchtower.

If I turn the picture upside down, I can see the profile of a dog. His eye is towards the top and his nose is near the guys left hand. If it's just a fire then the bottom half of the fire is not normal.

Memorial.. To go or not to go
by Emily1987 inso, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.
haven't been to a meeting since beginning of 2017. .
we weren't planning on going to the memorial, but last week my mother broke down and said that we have to go to the memorial even if it's the only meeting i go to this year.

A loving JW mother would be asking you to come because she's doing it with you in mind, not for herself. So if you decide not to go it would be nice if you could tell her that you'd like to spend the day with her doing whatever she'd like. -

Is porn really such a big problem in the wt?
by purrpurr inin the most recent circuit assembly there was a lot about porn and warning against porn.
even warning against looking at swim wear adverts!
so i was wondering, is porn really such an issue in the wt?.

I would imagine that it's not a problem the organisation can sweep under the carpet (or hide under a pillow) since JW wives would be seeking help from the Elders to deal with the problem.

by shepherdless inabout 9 months ago, i started this thread:.
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/6298997348106240/aust-2016-census-observations-jws-getting-older-more-kids-leaving-30-group-arent-returning.
i have had a little spare time, so i thought i would present some of the data in a more user friendly manner, with some additional detail.. 1. median age.

That looks like it is moving with the same bunch of females. For instance, a female aged 47 in 2006 is 52 in 2011 and 57 in 2016 and falling within those same age groups you mentioned.Shepherdless - SBF: Mode in 2006 was a 45 to 49 yo woman. Mode in 2011 was a 50 to 54 yo woman. Mode in 2016 was a 55 to 59 yo woman.
