  i want to wish everyone a happy juneteenth.

  some of you are probably are scratching your heads and wondering, "what the hell is juneteenth?

  african-american slaves in texas never found out that they were free until june 19, 1865 which is a little over a year and a half after the emancipation proclaimation as signed by then president lincoln.

  Colonel Allensworth State Park....

  Allensworth is the only California town to be founded, financed and governed by African Americans. The small farming community was founded in 1908 by Colonel Allen Allensworth and a group of others dedicated to improving the economic and social status of African Americans. Uncontrollable circumstances, including a drop in the areas water table, resulted in the towns demise. With continuing restoration and special events, the town is coming back to life as a state historic park. The parks visitor center features a film about the site. A yearly rededication ceremony reaffirms the vision of the pioneers.

  2 1/2 years later??? MUST SUCK!!!!

  to violet

  hi violet,.

  i've been reading your posts but haven't responded until now.

  at this point, i'll say a couple of things.

  But I found myself always in a position of having to 'defend' myself and my viewpoints

  
  Does not the Bible itself teach that you should be ready to defend your beliefs, troubled?

  I think what bothers most JW and supporters that find their way to this site--they have to defend their beliefs to people who have prepared for their irrational and emotional arguments with rock solid facts.

  Troubled, it's very different when you go to the door preaching--most people are NOT prepared to answer your questions; not having been thinking deep thoughts while eating Corn Flakes as they start their day.

  Violet can convert to the Hare Krishna for all I care; but when she or anyone come to this site expecting to blather off WBTS bullshit without being challenged...... so solly <<fake Chinese accent>>>

  Amen, Dung. JWs need professional help for their martyr/persecution complex.

  JW Blood Ban Checklist: Can Anyone Help Here?

  by Room 215 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking mainly of lee elder, but it seems that that a concise, user-friendly list of the permissible/prohibited blood fractions of current jw policy would be more than a mere convenience... it has life-saving potential!

  the mere fact that the watchtower does not see fit to clear the air and print a simple summary of the current blood fraction policy in a ``question from readers'' article or something.. their failure to do so thus far speaks volumes as to how little regard they have for the lives of their drones especially of the children who, in view of the stagnation of the organization, are the society's most promising -- and maybe only -- source of future growth.

  brooklyn seems to prefer distributing ``no blood'' cards to the flock and apparently has no interest in clarifying a matter they alone have obfuscated by their confusing and often contradictory rhetoric.

  I can't believe this thread hasn't been rated yet.

  Hi Sam, nice to see you around.
  

  You are correct, they do not want to clarify these issues until a witness has his/her back to the wall.

  Such a ‘cheat sheet” has been distributed to JWs, but notice the conditions under which it is distributed:

  1. Only when a JW is facing a serious medical or surgical situation
  2. On plain paper no WT letter head of any kind
  3. These cheat sheets are distributed by HLC members to JWs "in a need to know situation"
  4. The verbal explanation that goes along with the distribution of the sheet is "the top two layers (whole blood and its major fractions, white cells, red cells, platelets and plasma) are prohibited; all else is a conscience matter"

  Most JW don't even know what fractions they do and don't accept.

  They just parrot the wording they hear at the meetings.

  Do we have any updated info on the blood-card NONdistribution this year?

  Wiz says:

  I hear/heard the same from the WTB&TS too. So he's protecting us from any other viewpoints or dangers of opinions by others who don't think alike? That's a form of mind control. Maybe I'm missing a deeper problem that I am not aware of.

  Simon does not = WBTS. *HE* doesn't claim to speak for God. In all of the posts I've read of his, he's never once professed to be God's spokeman on earth. Therefore, he's not held to the same standard they (falsely) hold themselves to.

  Simon = owner of a public forum. He pays the bills, he sets the rules. So, no, he's not Big Brother and no, this isn't thought control. You and I are here as his guests.

  Deleting accounts of those who commit fraud and are in general just here to annoy the hell out of others is done at his discretion. Just chalk it up to him being an asshole, this is his chessboard and he can checkmate anybody at any damn time he pleases. [8>]

  i saw this editorial cartoon today by mike peters that i thought you might enjoy.

  a boy asked his dad, "is there a god?".

  the father answers back, "there must be, for him to survive all these religions.".

  That reminds me---temember that book-- Is there a God who cares?

  I think it should be re-punctuated to read:

  Is there a God?

  Who cares?

  LOL.
