  can someone explain in easy to understand language what this argument is all about.

  i am not that clever.

  No longer to use "house to house record" slips and "please follow up slips"!

  by stuckinarut2 in

  2. beliefs

  a letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .

  What branch was this letter for?

  I wonder how not-at-homes would be tracked. They were the bread and butter of getting time in.

  wanted to say hello to you all.

  i am new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself.

  i was raised a witness, never baptized (yay) and am married to a lovely baptized witness of jehovah.. i had been trying to get back into it due to both our families being j dbs but just never could get it into my heart.

  Welcome, mikeypants! I think you made the right decision. Keep researching both sides from an objective distance.

  it amazes me!.

  witnesses go on about how "blessed we are to have the website and all the content from jehovah etc".

  but i have been noticing the parallels between jws and the mormons!.

  When I look at people like Anthony Morris and Stephen Lett, it makes me doubt some of this. They seem to believe their own hype.

  It makes me wonder. If this were just a business looking to survive and increase profit, why would they let these folks on the stage?

  And why not let Loche take the stand?

  Sometimes it seems that they are bumbling at the wheel of the ship as they head toward the lighthouse.

  The Jonestown Massacre, Remembered

  it was 36 years ago today.. the watchtower has caused far more deaths due to the blood transfusion ban and the suicides from disfellowshipping.

  unfortunately, these deaths are mostly invisible to the public, since they didnat occur at once and in one location.. .

  TTATT = The Truth about the Truth = Jehovah's Witnesses are not the one true religion, the Watchtower never had divine appointment or authority.

  Powerful thought: "a blood card was a suicide note you carried around with you at all times".

  That calls to mind the Heaven's Gate cult. The leader redefined suicide, so that in the end, those not killing themselves to reach the next level and get swooped up by the UFO following the comet were the ones who were deemed as committing suicide. Only by killing themselves could they avoid suicide...as they defined it.

  For anyone out there who still might be troubled by the theological aspects of accepting blood transfusions:
