  refusing to go in service with someone

  did you ever refuse to go in service with someone?

  i did.... i went to the kh to meet for service and 3 brothers were there.

  i told the brother taking the lead, that when he made up the car groups to take note i had a plan of my own -the 3 brothers could go together and i would do my own thing.

  Did the Watchtower Society ban Vaccinations and Organ Transplants?

  an avid wts supporter writes:.

  re: vaccinations: vaccinations have never been banned.

  if they were, then no representative of the wts would have been allowed to travel overseas when vaccines were compulsory around 1920 when vaccines was regularly in the news, there was both positive and negative information printed in the golden age (forerunner of the awake) but not from the staff writers, but from out side sources of article by medical doctors at the time and others that responded to those articles.. re: organ transplants: organ transplants were never forbidden by the society.

  My mom (born in 1936) was not vaccinated, and got whooping cough, measles, etc. due to not being vaccinated. Also, expelled from school at least once over this issue. I was a little kid in the 1960’s, organ transplants were a no-no then. 🤷‍♀️😏

  Welcome to the forum, chicken lips. You are in the right place. We are ex JWs who have suffered under the Watchtower yoke, in some fashion or other, some had it worse than others. This is an English speaking forum, so most of us here are from the US, England, and Australia. Please tell us your story, but no specifics.

  Do you think the JW's ever will or could go the Mormon route?

  by BettyHumpter in

  what i mean is the mormon's have their own set of wacky beliefs and are a pretty insular group, engage in a form of door to door ministry but don't discourage higher education.

  in fact, the handful of mormons i went to school with were pushed to excel academically and go to college.

  yeah there are ex mormons but for a great many, going to university doesn't turn them into atheists.

  Mormons merging with JWs? I wonder what witnesses would think about that. Mormons don’t drink alcohol or coffee. 🤣

  Maybe, but you would think with the big push to go D2D, they might have more people.

  BTW, if they come to my door, I think I will ask them to come back with the WT bound volume from 1972, and the Awake bound volume from 1969. April 1972 has the article stating that they are prophets, and of course the infamous college discouraging article that it is a “fact” that you will never fulfill a career in this system. I might ask them to also bring a copy of Shepherd the Flock of God.
