James Mixon: Before you do scopolamine, please see your doc first to rule out other problems. You can ask the doc if a scopolamine patch is appropriate in your case or if they would recommend something else.

Get this checked. I've suffered with it occasionally, almost always an inner ear thing, but you don't want to mess around with it, especially if you aren't able to function normally (walking, driving, going up and down stairs, etc.)
What worked for me was a scopolamine patch (placed behind one ear), available over the counter, recommended by my doctor after she examined me.

Beware the will use legal means against lies
by Listener ini am posting a transcript a part of the talk given by anthony morris iii from jw broadcasting july 2015. i've posted much much more than necessary but i wanted to keep it in context.
the governing body has approved of my speaking of something that jesus himself spoke of on a number of occasions.
and i might say at the outset that this is by no means a pessimistic speech meant to discourage anyone.

While we may take advantage of legal means to set the record straight in harmony with Jesus words we do not engage in smear campaigns with rebuttals either verbally or in print.
So if that bit "in print" in the Watchtower a while back referring to "mentally-diseased apostates" doesn't qualify as a "smear campaign", I don't know what does.

@ RC: "For evolution to be true..."
by Scully inaccording to a jw contact, one of the speakers at the regional conventiontm stated that "for evolution to be true, two of the same kind would have had to evolve at the same time; one would have to be male and the other would have to be female, and then they would have to find each other".
apparently the crowd had a good laugh over how evolutionists overlook such a simple "fact".. i mentioned that bacteria and viruses use asexual reproduction, and that many sea creatures / fish, etc.
are hermaphrodite and do not require a sexual partner to produce offspring.. oddly enough, the conversation stopped there.

Oddly enough, the conversation stopped there. I wonder why??

July Broadcast Denies That JW Children Die Rather Than Have Medical Care
by BluesBrother inanthony morris 3rd delivered the broadcast this month and advised that lies are circulated that they let children die rather than have medical care .
he says this is so inaccurate as to be a boldfaced lie ...... further he says it is "up to the parents to determine what would be the best treatment for their children" .
now, does this mean that parents are really free to make a decision to accept blood for their minor child, if they so choose?

Hey there Vidiot,
We already know, via the Theocratic Warfare™ doctrine, that the WTS actively withholds facts from and misleads outsiders. What I was illustrating was that the WTS also deliberately lies to its own followers, and most of those followers believe that their beloved GB would never, ever lie to them.

They really don't care about searching for the Lost Sheep™, do they?
They'd much rather spend their time going Door-to-Door™, calling on Not-At-Homes™, or being told that the Householder™ is Not Interested™.
Do you want to know why? It's because Field Service™ has become like ironing. It's a mindless chore that gets done because it has to get done. And they get coffee breaks.
Making a Return Visit™ to Encourage™ a Lost Sheep™ would require effort (like tailoring a suit). Someone would have to take responsibility for said Lost Sheep™, and make a fake attempt at Friendship™ in order to lure that person back.
It's too much work for the average JW.

Let's review what Insight on the Scriptures (Volume 2, pages 244 - 245), in part, has to say about lying:
While malicious lying is definitely condemned in the Bible, this does not mean that a person is under obligation to divulge truthful information to people who are not entitled to it.
So there's the crux of it - ToMo3 feels he is under no "obligation to divulge truthful information to people who are not entitled to it", and clearly "people who are not entitled to [truthful information]" includes every single JW on the planet.
