  well i did it.. i attended the zoom memorial ( in respect for my mum).

  Debate

  back in the day, russell and rutherford would hold debates with other religious leaders.

  why has jehovah's witnesses stopped doing that?

  i think it would be very interesting to see how they would hold up on a debate now.

  Australia Yahoo news

  i just found this on yahoo news australia : .

  a jehovah’s witness girl may be forced to receive a blood transfusion against her will this weekend when she gives birth in melbourne.. mercy hospital victoria was granted supreme court authority on friday to give the girl blood as a “last resort” if she suffers a postpartum haemorrhage when induced into labour on sunday afternoon.

  the 17-year-old first-time mother is considered to be at increased risk of haemorrhaging because she is of “small stature” and the baby is large, meaning she may have a long labour, an assisted birth or an emergency caesarean.. jehovah’s witnesses forbid followers from receiving blood transfusions or blood products.. the risk to the baby from the mother refusing blood is considered low.. view photos.

  i was watching youtube the other day and came across " cart wars".

  i understand different people have different ways of protesting and dealing what they have been through, but this guy genuinely scares me.

  am i the only one?.

  i'm a long time lurker, first time writer on this site.

  years and years ago, i was on another ex-jw message board though i'm not sure if it's still around or not.

  i really enjoy reading all of your stories.
