nearly two weeks ago, sir james munby, a privy council member, formerly a law commission chairman, high court's family division president, and a lord justice of appeal, issued a short emergency order in a blood transfusion case closely resembling mcewan's the children act.. here are some excerpts:.
2. the case involves the deeply troubling question of whether a blood transfusion should be administered to a young woman who is almost, not quite, 16, against her profound religious beliefs.
Surely if they allow a child to make such decisions the child could be a against Vaccines, or any other medical treatments, and refuse them, whether the Parents wanted that child to have them or not, it would be crazy for the Courts and Governments to change the Law.
There would be a huge Body Count if they did.
guess that is the sort of person being attracted to the truth these days!.

His death from Covid has been reported.
a comment on another thread cracked me up where the poster related what some elder said on the platform that: .
in the new system, we likely will not have genitals.” lol.
i’ve heard so much speculation from many jw’s on what will and won’t be allowed in the new system.
I know they will have a smart arse answer for this, but how in reality would a few million ignorant JW's manage to run things in this New System?
"Jehoober will direct us", is the stock answer, but he hasn't been very good at directing them even in the matter of Doctrine so far, so how will that work ? We have lost all the skills needed in an Agrarian Society generally, and the many other skills needed to survive.
Jehoober is going to have to perform some mighty Miracles, something that there is no actual proof he has ever managed in the Past.
this topics get a great deal of discussion here.
what i find interesting is even some of my pimi family is embracing the reality that all is not well with jw.org and that many current jws are just going through the motions due to not having a good way out of the org.
wondering what could realistically lead to the collapse of jw.org in the not distant future?
The one thing that keeps the majority of JW's in is FEAR. Fear of a number of things, sometimes all of the things we could list, sometimes just one or two.
The fear that keeps PIMO folks in is the fear of losing Family. Remove that fear, or diminish it greatly, and PIMO's would leave in droves.
If a Court Action were successful in a major Court that the JW Org shunning was illegal, and they could be sued for damages, they would have a sudden shaft of New Light and change the Policy. I know they have foreseen this, and structured things in such a way that they think the Org itself is immune from Legal action, but if they are wrong, and it happens, I think the dwindling of the Org from their Reported 8 Mill plus would happen very fast, until they were down in the hundreds of thousands only.
i came across this article about a dental technician forcing her religion down a patient's throat (literally).
turns out the technician is a jw.
it would appear she can count her time preaching to a captive audience and being paid on the job.
I always thought it was unethical of me to preach my religious views to people when I was working, and in certain other situations where it would put them in an embarrassing situation where they had to tell me to can it.
I felt that if I knocked on someone's door uninvited then they had the freedom to say what they wanted, and not feel awkward about it.
Of course many people over the years asked me about my beliefs when I was working, as they knew I was a JW , so then I it was O.K.by me.
This J.W obviously cares more about her Reported Time than about people.
guess that is the sort of person being attracted to the truth these days!.

The sad thing is that a number of theses poor ladies need not have died, the Yorkshire Police's investigation was the most inept of recent years. I do hope that lessons have been learned.

We should be remembering and respecting his thirteen victims.
this post will be for the schoolars amoung us.. in the late 19th century were many of the worlds best scientists.
darwin, faraday, testla, edison etc.
and amoung them wasa lone archeologist named william albright who screwed up biblical schoolarship for over a hundred years.. before albright schoolars in europe hit on several conclusions about the bible:.
Thanks HTBWC for telling us of your method, and your new findings. I am always pleased to change my mind when proof emerges that an idea I held was wrong, though it is a shock sometimes !
I have had many such shocks since leaving the JW org well over a decade ago, so I am getting used to it. The fact that you are so willing to rewrite gives me confidence your book will be as accurate as possible, but things move with such speed, even in the seemingly dusty and arcane world of Biblical studies, that your book may need an addendum or two !.
Good luck with your work, I take it that like me you find Scholars that are more secular or Atheistic in their outlook to be far more credible than the Scholarly "believers" ?
It seems that many of these reliable Scholars do put the composition of the O.T as very late compared to earlier thinking, the other question is, who were these men that composed the O.T. in terms of Ethnicity, and Education and Religious influence ?
guess that is the sort of person being attracted to the truth these days!.

"attracted to the ...." WHAAAAT ! please do not use Cult Mind Control words or phrases on here, it really does annoy.
I know you are still attending, so the phrases and words are drummed in to you, but try not to actually use them on here. "The truth" FFS.
Strange to think that the JW who was trying to indoctrinate Sutcliffe would have got some Kudos from other JW's for going in to the prison to preach to him, and yet, obviously not a very good job was made of it !
It is possible of course that the Reporter misunderstood JW Doctrine.
3 letters:.
1. civil unrest.
2. food distribution pause.
