  Are fear and guilt totally unnecessary emotions ?

  by caliber in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  feelings do not necessarily speak truth.

  if you feel guilty, it does not mean that you are guilty.

  many times, feelings merely tell us what is going on in our thought life (or what we are really believing).

  I believe fear and guilt are but emotions that we have that serve a TEMPORARY purpose. They are uncomfortable for a reason. They should alert us that (in the case of fear) something is amiss and needs to be immeadiatly dealt with (flight or flight)...

  In the case of guilt, I would say that it triggers us to know we have done a major injustice that needs to be dealt with (take ownership of the fault, apologize, ask forgiveness and learn from your error).

  To say they are 'negative emotions' to me makes them without merit. I believe they have a special purpose and that is why they are so painful. We are not meant to live in long term pain. It makes one over emotional and out of balance. If they are used as "alerts" they are benificial and sustaining to life and to relationships. I think that to carry these emotions long term lead to physical and emotional damage in the extreme.

  Inviting djeggnog to discuss the blood doctrine

  djeggnog invited me to start a new thread about the blood doctrine, which i am happy to do here.

  his objection was my statement,.

  "i've seen the blood video, a deceiving mix of scripture, fearmongering and pseudoscience, with plenty of lab coats in view.

  Perhaps Nog will show up with some pictures of those kids who "gave their life" for hober as well? I know how persuasive those will be on us, right?

  More than likely We will only be met with paragraph after paragraph of regurgitated "ol timey material" complete with sporadic biblical chapter and verse. I guess my only point is, I enjoy a good tar and feathering. LOL

  Greed & Blood Transfusions

  by Alfred in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  if this doesn't make you angry, nothing will.... you say that "at a blood transfusion the person receiving the blood is in great need of it; the transfusion is not undertaken because he is greedy for it".

  for when a doctor tells a patient that he must have a blood transfusion or else he cannot get well and live, what does the doctor create in the patient but a greed for the blood of another human creature?

  -watchtower may 15, 1950 page 159. so, according to the wt, people who accept blood transfusions (because they want to live and be there for their children) are greedy!

  That is interesting to Me because in my youth I recall that there was a certain distrust of the Doctors themselves within the congregation. I grew up with several siblings and we seldom went to the doctor, even when we were very sick. It is, I am convinced from opinions handed down from the tower, and this cements My feelings on the matter.

  Thanks for the post.

  What Would Bring The Watchtower Down?

  by metatron in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  randy/dogpatch has posted some interesting material about troubles in the organization.

  this info generated a lot of skepticism about the possibility of watchtower fragmentation.

  frankly, it is very easy to be skeptical considering everything that ordinary witnesses are willing to believe or put up with.. i think it would be useful to realistically consider what sort of event(s) would bring the watchtower down or cause its fragmentation?

  My answer is this, that I stated on another thread....Educate Mothers/wives...children. Women and their children make up over half the congo....If they can be educated about the borg, the cycle will be broken...and children will be freed along with.

  Not at all BD

  Not at all....Guys are not messes....

  But it is a "mans world".... In history, and in the jw world.

  Many times it is asked on this board, "How do we stop them"....

  My answer is to empower women and children via eduacation and support.

  Remove women and children from the watchtower, and the jw's will starve out.

  Question is....Why the hold on them? My answer is that women and children lack support.
