Do not eat blood nor pork

by Bryan in

so the bible says not to eat blood, so the witnesses refuse blood transfusions.

the bible also says not to eat pork.

so why do witnesses eat pork?

Robert_V_Frazier

Because pigs hardly ever get blood transfusions?

An hillarious song by The Arrogant Worms. Here's where you can hear the song: http://www.eagle-wing.net/FunStuff/Goodies/CarrotJuice.shtml

And here's the lyrics:

Listen up, brothers and sisters,
Come hear my desperate tale.
I speak of our friends of nature,
Trapped in the dirt like a jail.

Vegetables live in oppression,
Served on our tables each night.
This killing of veggies is madness.
I say we take up the fight.

Salads are only for murderers.
Cole slaw's a fascist regime.
Don't think that they don't have feelings,
Just 'cause a radish can't scream.

{Refrain}
I've heard the screams of the vegetables. Scream scream scream.
Watching their skins being peeled. Having their insides revealed.
Griddled and steamed with no mercy, Burning off calories.
How do you think that feels? Bet it hurts really bad.
Carrot juice constitutes murder. And that's a real crime.
Greenhouses prisons for slaves. Let my vegetables grow.
It's time to stop all this gardening. It's dirty as hell.
Let's call a spade a spade. Is a spade is a spade is a spade.

I saw a man eating celery
So I beat him black and blue.
If he ever touches a sprout again,
I'll bite him clean in two.

I'm a political prisoner,
Trapped in a windowless cage.
'Cause I stopped the slaughter of turnips
By killing five men in a rage.

I told the judge when he sentenced me,
"This is my finest hour!
I'ld kill those farmers again
Just to save one more caul-i-flower."

{Refrain}
How low as people do we dare to stoop?
Making young broccolis bleed in the soup.
Untie your beans, uncage your tomatoes,
Set potted plants free, don't mash that potato, Woe! Woe! Woe!

I've heard the screams of the vegetables. Scream scream scream.
Watching their skins being peeled. Fates in the stir fry are sealed.
Griddled and steamed with no mercy. You fat gourmet scum.
How do you think that feels? Leave them out in the fields.
Carrot juice constitutes murder. V8's genocide.
Greenhouses prisons for slaves. Yes, your compost's a grave.
It's time to stop all this gardening. Take up macramé.
Let's call a spade a spade. Is a spade is a spade is a spade.
I think it would be fun to start a group like PETA, only more fanatical and radical. I'd call it PERV, People for Ethics and Respect
for Vegetables. The T-shirt sales alone would leave me set for life.

"They have NEVER lied"

by Robert_V_Frazier in

in this post over at carm, http://tinyurl.com/84ntg a jw from australia who goes by the handle "corvus" made a rather audacious claim:[the society] have never lied to, mislead or decieved anyone - they have made mistakes.. .

in response, i listed four lies that the society has made, three of which are easily investigated and proven to be lies.

1) the cover story that beth-sarim was built to house resurrected old testament saints who were coming back in 1925, when in fact, the house was built to get rutherford away from bethel.

Robert_V_Frazier

Um, lemme see now,
Oh yeah, is pulling stuff out of your a#% the same as lying?

Sure. It's just not the kind of lying I'm documenting. I want the kind where they look right at a piece of writing, especially a piece they wrote themselves, and that everyone knows they knew, and then they said or wrote something completely different and false about what they knew. Something that even the most brainwashed and brain-dead JW can't say, "But that was just an honest mistake!"

Come on, the real way to tell when the Society is lying is easy. If they're talking, and you can hear the words, they're lying. If they're writing, and there's enough contrast between the color of the text and the color of the paper (or the background color, in the case of their official website) for you to make out what the words are, they're lying.

Simple.

You might be from the Pacific Northwest if:

by Mulan in

these were great...........of course those of you who don't live here, might not get them, but i sure did!

1. you know the state flower (mildew).

2. you feel guilty throwing aluminum cans or paper in the trash.. 3. use the statement "sun break" and know what it means.. 4. you know more than 10 ways to order coffee.. 5. you know more people who own boats than air conditioners.. 6. you feel overdressed wearing a suit to a nice restaurant.

Ah, yes. I remember it well! I moved from Tacoma six years ago. Florida is much nicer! I like hot weather and commuting by bicycle nearly every day. Druther face the occasional hurricane than the depressing overcast skies of western Washington.

My favorite true story about the climate there: A teacher in a public school in Tacoma was teaching a class of first graders the names of the colors. You know the drill, "What color is grass?" "Green." "What color is milk?" "White." "What color is the sky?" "Grey."

Why Should Christians Be Date Setters?

by homme perdu in

because friends share secrets .

"henceforth i call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but i have called you friends; for all things that i have heard of my father i have made known unto you" .

I believe in God. But if there's one thing that really makes me question God: Why didn't he strike this guy dead before he finished writing that crap? AArgh! How many times and how many ways does Jesus have to say it? When He's coming back is none of our business, and He's not EVER going to tell us! That's why He compared His return to a thief breaking into a house in the middle of the night. How many thieves have ever called you on the phone and set an appointment with you to rob your place? "Is two A.M. good for you?" "Well, the whole family will be asleep then." "Great! I'll be in and out with your grandma's silver before you know it."

Date setting seems to be some kind of mental disease. I seem to be immune, but the stuff is highly contagious. And lethal.

Fatfreek, I read your letter this morning. Great timing! It was very well said. Your parents taught you well that there's a crucial difference between an honest mistake and a lie.

I do agree that the Society makes far too many and too serious errors to support its claim to the Faithful and Discreet Slave(TM). But I'm looking for the things that made you leave the Org -- deliberate lies that the writers knew were lies when they wrote them.

Quotes: Unfortunately, the gravity article does not qualify. Whoever wrote that almost certainly thought he was both making sense and telling the truth, if he wasn't too drunk or mentally retarded to have any thoughts about sense or truth. Of course, it was neither sensible nor true. The rest of your examples are right on the mark.

Most of their false prophecies could be claimed to have been made in good faith, that they believed they were true at the time. I'm looking for examples of them saying, "We said X about that subject," when their own books and magazines clearly show that they did not say "X", but rather "Q - 7.3", or "albatross", or "Betelguise". The cases where they changed words from the magazines to the bound volumes and CD-ROM are no good for this purpose either, as the changes were made without saying anything about the change.

Several excellent entries to the list in this thread so far. My thanks to all!

Thank you, RunningMan! That's just what I was looking for. Might be one or two in there that don't fit the criteria, but most of them definitely do.

LittleToe, good point about the Trinity brochure. Regardless of where one stands on the question, the misrepresentation of the ECF as opposed to the doctrine of the Trinity is a lie. And none of the quotes in that booklet are honest. Not surprising the Society worked so hard to keep the footnotes out of print!

whyamIhere -- You reminded me of another one. Remember when the whole molestation scandal broke, and the Watchtower sent out some sound bites, one of which claimed that the Society had only very recently discovered that raping young boys and girls is bad for them?
