What's Sacred, what's not?

let's put forth a question here that should provoke some interesting responses.

please feel free to give your thoughts on the matter inasmuch as that is the purpose of these boards.

we (jehovah's witnesses) do not accept blood transfusions on the principle that 'blood is sacred'.

from time to time some of us may have wondered about the amount of work that we will have to do restoring the post-armageddon world into a paradise.

think of all that construction and all that clearing up!

JW and XJW DB's , Bible Conscience and Truth.
by spectromize in
1. watchtower
2. bible
i would just like to point out that when i first bought my computer and connected to the internet, the first words i typed in my browser were jehovah, jehovah's witnesses, watchtower.... i must say, i was quite amazed to see so many websites that were for and against us.

my curiosity got the better of me and started reading sites such as watchtower.org ,witnesses.net,watchtower observer, h20, freeminds...ect.. did it bother me to read opposing materials or websites?

as i mentioned in another thread i have spent many years training myself a conscience trained to what the bible and the society's publication have encouraged us to do.. again coming back to the question, did it bother me reading all this opposing stuff?

What's it gonna be?
by Frenchy in
1. jw
2. friends
some time back i noted on another board that what is really needed is a site wherein a witness can discuss his faith.

not a site where everything that is not considered 'positive' is censored (what can you discuss then?

) and not a site for bashing jw's (if there is nothing positive, what's the point?

Would you listen to a rumour?
by Simon in
1. jw
2. friends
remember that article brothers?we have been up and running for less than a week and already have had accusations of apostacy bandied about.please stop and think before you make a serious allegation like this.

imagine the hurt it would cause to a genuine brother if it wasn't true.this doesn't mean that we should let our guard down against those who would try and disrupt things or cause divisions amongst us but i'm sure these poeple would like nothing more than to see us fall out with each other.some of these rumours have been spread by members of other boards or people pretending to be them.just be on your guard to this sort of activity and help us by not passing on unfounded accusations.thank you.
