Now I wonder if he had been gay, Black, they could have used the hate crime against them for shunning/disfellowshipping him?
That might have worked...

Don't you hate it when someone tells you something you know isn't right and yet they really believe it? How frustrating is that..
When it's your mom it's even worse.
Don't worry, maybe dementia will set in soon on her and you can have all kinds of fun

I wonder what would happen if the Ex JW's went back constantly to the hall and talked to everyone like nothing happened..would they get kicked out?..Issued a restraining order against them?
One of those things that make you go Hmmmmmm???
As far as I know there is no rule against the Ex JW talking to them..

First of all I am so sorry your Uncle is having to go through so much pain..I hope it goes easy for him. My heart goes out to you!
And I'm not surprised about the actions of the witnesses,..they only wanted to pray because so many were there (in my opinion) ..they like to put up a front. When my hubby was in hospital and got his 6 month to live speech from the doctors..the laison committee moved in..they came to visit but no one offered to say a prayer for my hubby..I am disassociated but not disfellowshipped. I had to ask them to say a prayer..they finally said a short one. Then when he was at home in his last days 2 witnesses (brothers) came to visit(their one visit) ..again no prayer..my hubby was in good standing just not as active as they would have liked in earlier days..they acted like it ws to late to pray as he was already dying..they actually looked at me like I was crazy when I asked them to say a prayer.He loved his religion and I thought it would give him strength to face his dying. If hubby wasn't so sick I would have liked to slap the silly right off their stupid faces..
No love lost on them..

Noni, I have been following your reports..as you know hubby was a JW and when he was facing the blood issue he had me fill out all the paper work for the POA etc. He listed ME as the one to make decisions for him regarding his healthcare. I told hiim I couldn't guarantee that I would refuse blood for him if necessary to save him even for a little while. Even then he still appointed me rather than his JW mom or sister. I was shocked. I really think if he thought blood would have saved hiim he would have taken it. I really do!
If they had pulled that stuff with me in the hospital I would have taken it outside..not in front of hubby. I wouldn't make a scene in front of him..he had enough he was going thru (as did I). The JW's should show respect for any relatives, no matter what religion or standing in the org. if JW....
I know you are a strong person and care about your Mom..it sounds like she has been amazing and losing the weight is wonderful. I just watched them operating on a 500 pound woman on TV ..she lost so much weight they had to operate a few more times to remove the excess skin.
Has you mom filled out all the paper work that the JW's have? Who did she name as the person that would make the decisions of her healthcare in the hospital?..
Hubby had his but the hospital and Drs. kept losing the papers.They would look at the top paper on his chart but overlook the last pages where the directives were..They even asked what blood type he was one time..scared hiim to death...Big hugs for you and your family..I bet you will be glad when this is all over..

Quote:
In another Golden Age they printed a "flight of fantasy" about the future on the subject of "Negative Gravitation." It was a speculative article on overcoming gravity by "negative gravity" which is a repelling force. The author said this was the newly discovered "radiant energy" or "radio-activity"! The following was said about how accidents could be avoided in the coming Golden Age with the use of a "negative gravity [radio-active?] device":
MANY have wondered how accidents would be avoided during Christ's kingdom, since we are told that nothing shall then hurt or destroy. Most accidents are due to gravitation and its effects. Falling from airplanes... etc., may be avoided by an individual negative gravity device.
Scientists tell us that there is enough atomic energy in a finger-nail to propel a battleship. The people of the future may carry a little of this energy around with them, and if they fall down an elevator shaft they can let themselves down easy. Then they can turn a little more on and go back up. ... No danger of falling down stairs then. [19] End of Quote...

All I could find under 8-25-1926 was for Germs..aliuminum etc..quite funny actually..Wilson, F. L. "Fermentation and the Germ Theory." Golden Age Aug. 25, 1926 p. 749-754
