  I enjoyed Mongol.

  Not sure Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is 'unheard of' but I enjoyed the Swedish Trilogy, although the 'Hollywood version' is very good and actually closer to the book.

  In Bruges is a classic surely :-)

  I get what Minimus is saying, but to set out with one objective and achieve another which is still worthwhile is not a total failure.
  
  I don't think the WT will be reformed on its' blood policy by pressure, either from outside or within. I think it will take a tragedy which hits them hard in the pocket and threatens to trigger a raft of lawsuits to make them change.
  
  I have long believed that Hospital Liason Committees were set up NOT to ensure that JW's firmly refused blood in all its forms, but to ensure that JWs ACCEPTED blood products that they would normally have refused if they firmly and faithfully adhered to the WT interpretation on blood. All along it has been a two faced, damage limitation exercise which has saved lives as a by product of saving face and protecting the WT's image and reputation.

  That said the AJWRB website opened my eyes too and was a big piece in my own journey out.

  Do Wills Ever Affect Shunning?

  a man has several sons and daughters who are active jehovah's witnesses.

  so was his wife, who died two years ago.

  he has since lapsed into apostasy and has been openly critical of the governing body.

  I have long said that if I ever won the lottery I will be sending the JW members of my family who ignore me, a cheque for a tempting amount of money with a note that says:
  
  "I won this money in the lottery, which is gambling. I know you don't gamble and wouldn't want any money gained in a way God disaproves of, but I wondered if you are as hypocritical and inconsistent on this principle as you are on everything else"

  The packages will arrive today... What do you think will happen?

  i have decided that ignoring my niece and nephew during the holidays, is the most unloving thing i could possibly do.

  they stopped celebrating christmas and birthdays, after my sister began studying with jw's about 6-7 years ago.

  we did not celebrate either, until 3 years ago, when my son was 2 and my daughter was 4, and we'd figured out that the jw's are wrong about this decision.

  Send birthday and Christmas cards and put in a cheque. Then you'll know when they break their rules and accept the gift.
