  re. Ron‘s Santa Herd pic…

  It’s actually kinda freaky how well that comes together.

  I’m actually imagining Sammy coming across it, sighing wistfully, and thinking “…in another life…”

  unbaptized boy having priority over women

  by enoughisenough in

  i was thinking about the male children ( even unbaptized ) being placed ahead of the sisters.

  ; and i thought the jw were raising a bunch of misogynist.

  would these kids not feel more important than their mothers let alone other women.

  Would there, or would there not be, lawsuits if they took away the blood transfusion ban?

  by VerdadTJ2 in

  i have heard or read, many times by many exjw's, that the org does not remove the blood transfusion ban because it would be crippled by the resulting lawsuits the minute that "new light" was made official.i am not a lawyer, but i would like to know what legal opinion lawyers have on that.on what legal basis would there be a lawsuit?

  "i am suing the watchtower because my relative died because of a rule they had but no longer have"?am i missing something?.

  Might be some pretty angry nonJWs with dead JW family members, though.

  They need to be a legal entity for human law: but which law?

  by psyco in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i could be mr. green and, due to mistrust considering the times and what is happening, study with the jws as mr. brown.. get baptized as mr. brown.. become one of their congregation elders as mr. brown.. etc.

  etc.. all this since i am not required to provide any signature and/or document to identify myself as mr. brown.. are they complying with human law?

  but which law?.

  I see it being brought up over on Reddit more and more lately, so the word’s getting around.

  markwetherill - “If the blood doctrine was removed, that'd be one less thing for JWs to feel smug and superior about.”

  Honestly?

  I don’t think there are all that many rank-and-filers who feel particularly smug about it.

  DesirousOfChange - “…Apparently, WT HQ has determined that getting these young people (I mean boys) involved in Cong activities will keep them interested in future goals/positions.”

  At this point, the only young guys who’d aspire toward positions in a repressive ultraconservative church are so unskilled and socially crippled, they have virtually no other life prospects.

  …are you using the words “grooming”, “young”, and “boys” on purpose?
