Hannah J Paul states,
"Just to restate things slightly for the purpose of clarification, the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society is a publishing entity; Jehovah’s Witnesses are not ‘members’ of the publishing entity. Jehovah's Witnesses are baptized Christians.
As to your question, let us ask the apostle Paul since he was directed by Holy Spirit to speak on the matter. His words are found at 1 Corinthians 1:10-13. He exhorts his fellow Christians, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ that they should ALL speak in agreement; that there should be no divisions and that they should be fitly united in the same mind and in the same line of thought. Then he gives an example of where they fail to do same. So, speaking in the name of Jesus, the head of the Christian congregation, speaking under the direction of the Holy Spirit, and speaking words that are now recorded in God’s word the Bible, Paul makes it abundantly clear how important unity is. Given all that, I would say it is entirely possible for true Christians – who have come to conform their way of thinking to God’s way - to be unified as Paul mentions. Of course, if one takes issue with the written Word, that’s another subject entirely. Are you taking issue with the written word?" -

This question was deleted from Yahoo! Answers due to it being "insulting/ ranting" against a group. Is this ALWAYS going to happen on Y!A every time we make a good point and JWs are unhappy with it? Weak!
Here is an article that will help explain:
http://watchtowerofbabel.blogspot.com/2014/06/jehovahs-witnesses-why-do-you-keep.htmlOne of the most dramatic examples of this is the switch (in 1954) from worshiping Jesus to not even speaking to him. As if by the flick of a light switch, JWs everywhere no longer prayed directly to Jesus but, rather, "through" him. If new light were introduced, today, regarding the blood issue, the same sudden shift would occur. The Watchtower Article would go something like this:
"Although it should remain a matter of conscience, the taking of whole blood in the form of transfusions does not appear to violate scripture since transfused blood is not consumed by the body as food. While transfusions can lead to medical complications and should, therefore, be taken only when no other options are available, the resulting preservation of Christian lives is significant, especially as the end draws near." -

Why didn't Jehovah destroy the polygamists just as he did the Sodomites?
by I_love_Jeff inaccording to jehovah's witnesses, both gays and polygamists are fornicators, why spear one and not the other?.
"in old age jacob admitted that his lifeincluding his domestic affairshad been distressing.
(genesis 47:9) doubtless, life had been distressing for leah and rachel as well.

Revise-
Should the Jehovah's Witnesses' God have destroyed the "fornicators" that married multiple wives just as He did the sinners in Sodom and Gomorrah?

According to Jehovah's Witnesses, both gays and polygamists are fornicators, why spear one and not the other?
"In old age Jacob admitted that his life—including his domestic affairs—had been distressing. (Genesis 47:9) Doubtless, life had been distressing for Leah and Rachel as well. Their experiences highlight the sad consequences of polygamy and illustrate why Jehovah established that a man should have one wife. (Matthew 19:4-8; 1 Timothy 3:2, 12) Jealousy results when the romantic or sexual interests of a husband or a wife are not limited to one person—his or her spouse. That is one reason why God prohibits fornication and adultery.—1 Corinthians 6:18; Hebrews 13:4."
Since the Jehovah's Witnesses deemed polygamy as fornication YET Jehovah tolerated such ones, why did He not tolerate the Sodomites?
Should the Jehovah's Witnesses' God not have destroyed the "fornicators" that married multiple wives just as He did the sinners in Sodom and Gomorrah?

Are the Jehovah's Witnesses rewriting Jehovah's Law regarding Polygamy?
by I_love_Jeff inwatchtower: 9/15/1956 page 572.
"although for a time god permitted the israelites to practice polygamy, yet this was not gods purpose for them, nor did he command them to adopt this practice.".
verses please.
