by adjusted knowledge in
1. jw

i'm not sure if this is new since it is hard to keep up with the ever changing jw.

it is morphing so much.

i went to jw.org tv video for november and around 53 or 54 minutes into the broadcast the gb guy introduce a music video called "we won't forget you".

Breast milk contains white blood cells
by Rufus T. Firefly in
1. jw
2. friends
i just learned (from a post on a facebook jw recovery forum) that breast milk contains white blood cells [see link below for confirmation].

so, when nursing, an infant ingests its mother's white blood cells for nourishment.

furthermore, i have known jw mothers who would nurse the infant of another mother when that mother was temporarily indisposed.

My Explanation of Why They Got it Wrong About Blood Using Only the NWT
by cofty in

2. medical
10 " any israelite or any alien living among them who eats any bloodi will set my face against that person who eats blood and will cut him off from his people.

12 therefore i say to the israelites, "none of you may eat blood, nor may an alien living among you eat blood.

15 'anyone, whether native-born or alien, who eats anything found dead or torn by wild animals must wash his clothes and bathe with water, and he will be ceremonially unclean till evening; then he will be clean.

The new translation of John 17:3 seems like a major shift.
by paul from cleveland in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
up until now, everlasting life was dependent on "taking in knowledge".

it was a perfect fit for a publishing house to interpret that scripture that way.

if we didn't keep up with the endless stream of publications from the watchtower our salvation would be in jeopardy.

Blondie can you help me find your research "How to treat disfellowshiped JWs"?

blondie i was reading where you posted information from 1952 onward on how we are to treat disfellowshiped members of our spiritual and physical family.

you posted information from the kms, wt and other sources.

i did a search and can't find it, one of the tidbits of information said that if a brother or sister has contact with the "disfellowshiped member" they should be disfellowshiped too.
