i come to this site as my one-stop-shopping guide to scandals and controversy within watchtowerland ( much of which is about as real as world of warcraft).

i'm surprized i haven't read anything about marijuana and 'the truth".. weed is getting legalized all over the place and california, in particular, is loaded with whacked-out witnesses.

since it can be prescribed as a medical treatment (here and there), i imagine the wts might have to do some doctrinal gymnastics to df folks for using it.

Satanus, that's my thought too. You can get a prescription for some opiates and that's OK. But man, if you don't have that prescription, the demons are gonna come knockin'.

Same thing with weed. I get they they check for your medical marijuana card before harrassing you.

It really shows the flaw in the whole spiritism angle they use for drugs.

1969 "fact": You will never grow old in this present system of things

by Ding in

awake!

"if you are a young person, you also need to face the fact that you will never grow old in this present system of things.

because all the evidence in fulfillment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years... therefore, as a young person, you will never fulfill any career that this system offers.

Steve: Whenever they address past predictions of Armageddon, they always spin it to blame the individual. You'll see phrases like, "Some brothers have had false expectations." They will NEVER admit they fucked up with 1975.

Elders Ordered to Give Evidence in Sex Scandal Trial

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2365992/gordon-leighton-child-abuse-trial-orders-jehovahs-witness-leaders-evidence.html.

church elders refused to comment on a child abuse scandal because they had a 'duty to god' to keep the sex attacker's confession a secret, a court heard.. jehovah witness ministerial servant gordon leighton admitted sexually abusing a child when he was confronted with allegations before elders at his church,newcastle crown court heard.. but during the official police investigation the 53-year-old, who hit the headlines in the 1990s when his wife yvonne, 28, died after refusing a blood transfusion after childbirth on religious grounds, denied any illegal wrongdoing.. when detectives asked elders simon preyser, harry logan and david scott to make statements about the confession, all three refused and said what they had heard was confidential.. the elders knew about the admissions for three years, but refused to cooperate with the criminal investigation, the court heard.. .

the trio kept that stance when the case was brought before newcastle crown court.

FYI: The Daily Mail is a crazy tabloid. I'd wait for a more legit source.

Don't ever....ever...EVER forget these came from the FDS and Governing Body

by Terry in

we do well to bear in mind that among the drugs, serums, vaccines, surgical operations, etc., of the medical profession, there is nothing of value save an occasional surgical proceedure.

their so-called "science" grew out of egyptian black magic and has not lost its demonological character.... we shall be in a sad plight when we place the welfare of the race in their hands.

[1] 1. the golden age, aug. 5, 1931, p. 727.. the journal of the a. m. a. is the vilest sheet that passes the united states mail.... nothing new and useful in theraputics escapes its unqualified condemnation.

There's articles from the 60's I think that state getting an organ transplant can give you the personality of the donor.

That article mentions that what is essentially the factory complex has been sold. Did they sell off the Columbia Heights properties too?

JWs and E-Cigs

by TheClarinetist in

friends

the other night, two of my jw coworkers were sitting out enjoying an e-cig with one of my other coworkers.

i knew from earlier that there was tobacco (well, nicotine) in it.

out of curiousity, i did some minor digging with my worldlytm coworkers and am pretty darn sure that these guys aren't doing anything else questionable... are active jws allowed to smoke e-cigs now, or did i just witness some extremely minor teenage rebellion?.

Barrold Bonds

Definitely DF offense. As mentioned, nicotine patches or gum is 'bad' too.

i have been encouraging my mom to cook with coconut oil, it does help with her dementia symptoms sometimes.

it is just not safe for people with dementia to use knives for cooking, thats why i need some recipe ideas.

thank you!.

Barrold Bonds

Sorry about your mom but I'm going to guess that coconut oil doesn't do anything for dimentia.
