God, being afraid of literally everything must be fucking exhausting.

Sorcery = Pharmakeia
by KerryKing inrev18:23 '....you deceived the nations with your sorceries'.. the interlinear for sorceries reads pharmakeia.. bible hub has some interesting definitions, i'll try to share screenshots below.
the gist of it is that sorcery involves drugs/medicines/poisons, with or without spells, sorcery is not the same as witchcraft or divination, or white/black magic.
i have long wondered about the connection between the medical/pharmaceutical industry's symbol of the serpent wrapped around a pole/stake, and the use of the word pharmaceuticals/pharmacy.. considering the common use of fluoride in public drinking water, nsaids with side effects such as depression, brain fog, dizziness, and opioids, mrna gene therapy, vaccines and so on, i wonder am i going mad, are these all coincidences??

careful - “Isn’t that what all good JWs expect the new order to be?”
Sure.
The rest of us, though?
The prospect of a world like that trumps the fear of being destroyed at Armageddon any day.

Where is Tony?
by Athanasius inon february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

Anytime someone says “but what if they’re right?” I respond with this…
…the WTS has made it abundantly clear that they intend to run the world after the Apocalypse.
Now, imagine them being given control of a small country tomorrow.
I guarantee you that within half a decade, advances in science and medicine would grind to a halt, creationism would be mandated in schools, post-secondary education would be nonexistent, all foreign entertainment would be banned, any form of alternative sexual expression would be forbidden even between straight married couples, disfellowshipped people would be imprisoned or deported, and “apostates” would be sentenced to death without possibility of appeal or reprieve.
Anyone who denies this is either naive or lying.
Now, imagine a regime like that encompassing the entire planet.
Indefinitely.

The HLC do not pressure JWs
by usualusername1 inthe hospital liaison committee (hlc) for jehovah’s witnesses does not pressure members to refuse blood transfusions.
rather, their role is to support jehovah’s witnesses in adhering to their pre-existing religious beliefs, which include a strict prohibition against accepting blood transfusions based on their interpretation of biblical scriptures.. jehovah’s witnesses are well-informed about their stance on blood from an early age, and refusing blood is a deeply ingrained religious conviction, not something imposed during a medical crisis.
the hlc’s purpose is to provide assistance in accessing bloodless treatment options, facilitating communication with healthcare providers, and helping ensure that the patient’s choices are respected.. while the hlc strongly supports adherence to the beliefs of jehovah’s witnesses, the ultimate decision remains with the individual.

TonusOH - “…to avoid confusing people with ‘old light’…”
That’s… a one way of putting it. 😏

hoser - “…Not me but a relative that ended up dying in the hospital…”
That’s a relief.
If you’d said that you died in the hospital, I’d be a lot more worried.
(sorry, couldn’t resist)

I’ll bet they got in serious trouble for that shit, their lawyers advised them that they were gonna lose badly if they pressed the issue in court, and their charity status was threatened if they didn’t back the fuck off.

Alien: Romulus
by nicolaou ini never start topics like this normally but this has really wound me up.
romulus is getting great reviews and i just don't understand it.
it was predictable, formulaic fanfiction.. it brought nothing new, quite the opposite in fact.
