Witnesses Ban gambling using no Scriptures only stupid logic...it's greedy! What?
by Witness 007 inthere is no scripture that ever said "thou shall not gamble.
" the bible never mentions gambling.
yet it's a disfellowshiping sin.

Governing Body has an interesting problem. Masterbation is out because it leads to fornication. But petty gambling is in because it does not lead to problem gambling? Interesting. I think they might be wrong.

What's wrong with tigers? I hate tapeworms. If everything were peachy we would not evolve the ability to hate (what is bad), if someone found out and chose to exploit that characteristic of humans, they might.

ssn587 I think you are not being angry, I believe you are being right. You say "they seem to disappear". I think for some who disappear, it is not because of hypocrisy but they may be being true to "Let You Will Be Done".
I shall tell a story, it really happened, it's called evidence.
I did something improper in the field service. Somebody reading this might recognize me. Hi! The sister in my hall where I was, not the hall I "faded" from, was a busybody in other people's affairs. As God is Judge, I am not exaggerating. She was also in good standing as a pioneer and an elders wife, I don't understand it either, but you learn not to question Jehovah's Will. She said something in field service to me implying that my sadness for what my family was going through (the usual disagreement stuff that sometimes turns nasty), was my fault. We had just finished the book of Job, I am a thinking person, so stunned is how I felt. I snapped. (Job was he who was blamed for his problems by something he must have done wrong, by his friends he was blamed). I thought she was doing the same thing to me. I did not like it. Not entirely because she was unchristianly attacking me, but she had been a "Bible Student" most of her life (at the time she might have been pushing 50). All the "how come people just don't get it?" came rushing in to my brain, so I slapped her. It made her cry so I said "I'm sorry". There were witnesses, one sister and two brothers. So as I went along on this journey cause by a milisecond of rage, they called it. Anyway, to make a long story short nobody sided with me (publically-I can't read hearts), and nobody even once tried to get me off the THOUGHT TRAIN I was thrust into. ( That episode of my life made me realize that I am indeed bi-polar). The important part of the judicial decision against me that I should share for a more clear understanding of events is, she was not restricted or censored one bit. Weirded huh? OK I shall explain I am for JUSTICE. I like it! Explained When two sisters fight , even if only one gets physical, they both must be disiplined. Might I add, in whatever many years it was my first offence of anything. I didn't punch her, and it was not in the face. I'm basically a nice person.
I have a point. If the Jehovah's Witnesses have God's Spirit to do His will, where were they to lend support to me? Has the world really gone far away from real? And if so, why is that a good thing?

JW spokesman: We refuse blood, but it's a personal choice
by MrMonroe indublin news story contains a blatant lie from the mouth of a jw spokesman:.
http://www.thejournal.ie/need-for-discussions-between-hospitals-and-jehovahs-witness-patients-234833-sep2011/.
a court order granted today to allow the coombe hospital give a baby a blood transfusion against the wishes of her parents underscores the need for more discussions to take place between hospital staff and patients, says a dublin branch of jehovahs witnesses.. harry homan, from the south dublin hospital liaison committee said that the issue highlighted the relationship between hospital staff and jehovahs witness patients.. he said, however, that there is already healthy discussions happening across the country.. the parents in this case are very happy with the hospital and the care being give to their baby, homan told thejournal.ie.. there is an excellent relationship between the parents and staff and the child is receiving the best of care.. he added that a blood transfusion will only be given to the premature baby as a last resort.. at the moment, she is doing well, said homan.. rte reports that the transfusion will be given to the baby if her condition deteriorates and it is necessary to save her life.. hospitals are acutely aware of the dangers associated with blood transfusions, claimed homan, adding that it is in everyones best interests to seek alternatives.. he said the position of jehovahs witnesses is perfectly clear on the matter of blood transfusions.. we do refuse transfusions, he said.

Hi sir82 How embarrassed I was for the brothers who would do that mini review of the assembly for Jehovah's sake? WTF? I always thought He is Almight God, for god's sake. Jehovah?, you there?, we're just making sure you heard everything we said.
Wait a minute! Are not we suppose to be listening to HIM?
I always wanted to write WTF, I think I have found the proper place to write it, finally. I hope it doesn't become a bad habit.
Peace!
