  Looking poor means less to sue for

  they have tons of money

  this is all a ruse. They are moving money around so lawyers can't get to it

  in the mean time, the WTS themselves may have trouble spending it also, thus creating a cash flow crisis

  Today's watchtower: obey us, no matter what

  by Tornintwo in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  today's watchtower:.

  obey us, obey us even when it seems strange, obeying our man made hierarchy equates to obeying god, sacrifice your own interests, work for us, don't be independent, put your own interests aside, obey some more, preach for us, build for us, enjoy it, obey some more, forgive when we are jerks to you and mistreat you, accept your changed assignment even if it seems cruel and doesn't make sense, don't complain if we move you (eg.

  ) because you might have to move in the new world, remember you are being trained to obey, remember to put your own interests aside, that's the way we are designed to live - it will only make you happy!

  It was a hard study to listen to

  as if to say all this shit going on right now is to train you and if you don't like it you might ruin your shot at paradise

  so surviving Armageddon isn't just about 10 hours a month and regular meeting attendance, you have to get in line and accept tasks handed to you...... Such as day work at bethel??

  I hope I never get a fragrance sensitivity one day cause when I hear people like you whine about how "rude" it is to where fragrance my eyes roll so far back it hurts

  you don't like JWs fine. But to come here and whine about them wearing fragrance is reduculous.

  people like you LOVE complaining about fragrances.

  ooooh, you really gave it to those clean, nice smelling JWs that were outside near your house

  how rude of them to not read your mind before they came to your house.

  She was right you know, if you expect everyone on the planet to accommodate your sensetivities then do us all a favour and where a sign around your neck listing them off so we can all tip toe around you

  JWs are getting worried about the lay-offs in the ORG.

  i'm upstairs, eavesdropping on a conversation between an eldubs wife and my wife.

  they are hoping for "clarification" on everything that's going on with the construction scene.

  so, rest assured, dubs are talking.

  Hemoglobin Infusion??

  by Vetro in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i just got the new document about blood fractions from the wt, they will allow you to choose hemoglobin, but apparently not packed red blood cells, but in the medical journal i see nothing about hemoglobin infusions, is this even possible or just more bullshit from the wt?

  this is the joke about fractions. they are useless.

  they are only used in medicines. If you bleeding out your red/white blood cells are low or platelets you NEED at least a component transfusion.

  Hemoglobin is the only ingredient of red blood cells. The only difference between hemoglobin and a red blood cell is the sack that holds the hemoglobin together. Its made of cholesterol.

  once its out of the sack its no good for transfusion.

  Need Help with Blood Transfusion Illustration

  by Dissonant15 in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  please, who can provide an intelligent rebuttal to the following illustration?

  i always thought it was bullet-proof:.

  "if your doctor directs you to 'abstain from alcohol' would you be ok to have it injected into your veins rather than drink it?

  To abstain from blood was to abstain from eating meat that was not bled properly.

  All meat has blood in it, its not the blood but the ritual cleansing that is the act of obedience.

  The illustration about alcohol is both a red herring and straw-man as it does not accurately follow the premise

  if it were somewhat apples to apples, the illustration would be to avoid alcohol in excess but of course this would not support the WTS position

  Sounds to me like they need HVAC, engineers, electricians and machinists

  why no paragraphs about unskilled High School only educated labourers?

  Blurring of genders

  by Saltheart Foamfollower in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  as sometimes happens at elders meetings with the co, he has a letter from the branch to read out.

  this rarely is made available later so any policies have to be acted on from memory.

  this visit a letter was read about blurring of the genders and in particular brothers dressing in a metrosexual style - tight clothing was mentioned again.

  I agree with this letter

  i think tight pants on men looks absurd

  and if a man portrays a homosexual style/appearance why would a religion that disagrees with homosexuality not have an interest in whether or not they shoukd publicly represent them in a church sponsored ministry?

  quit nitpicking about absolutely everything the BOrg says and focus on real issues like the GB and blood

  Every one I've ever known to claim seeing/hearing demons was a drug user, and not just casual but major drug user

  every other instance was sleep paralysis to the T
