let us read a recent watchtower publication:.
many medical professionals and other advocates of blood transfusion appeal to people to donate blood in hopes of saving lives.
however, jehovahs holy people acknowledge that the creator has the right to say how blood is to be treated.
They seem to be using the word Holy in this magazine numerous times, maybe they are moving away from the term 'Holy spirit'
WT's use of the word "holy" in reference to its doctrines is more closely related to full-of-holes Swiss cheese hole-ee, than 'pure and clean' holy.
for the 33 years i was "in" their seemed to be a constant barrage against catholicism from either the watchtower or awake mags., and hardly a peep out of them towards other individual faiths .. i havent read any of their publications for well over 20 years and was just wondering if anything has changed in this regard .. smiddy.
Vidiot: Invites too many uncomfortable comparisons.
It's impossible to condemn the pot when you're the kettle.
to be holy, we must weigh the scriptures carefully and do what god asks of us.
consider aarons sons nadab and abihu, who were executed for offering unauthorized fire, perhaps while inebriated.

Wouldnt be surprised if there is a lush or two on the GB
Considering their talk material lately, I think the alcohol factor is a given. Ditto for the Writing Committee.
please don't take this the wrong way if your battling weight problems, that's not what this thread is meant to talk about.
i am asking this question because jehovah's witnesses claim they have "the best way of life", "god's blessing", "the truth" and are trying to change the habits of healthy people by turning them in to their own makings.
i watched people who were great athletes turn all their muscle in to fat because we would get a elder or circuit overseer make remarks they were spending too much time "working out" and "bodily training is beneficial for little".

Since JWs can't have orgies or smoke crack and most normal human outlets are on the WT's "sin" list...an all-you-can-eat buffet is all they have left.

how can the governing body let Witnesses to accept blood fractions of "the four primary components" coming from donors who are not Witnesses?
Because WT is the epitome of hypocrisy, and it has no problem teaching JWs to take from this world without ever giving back.
bible describes atheism as a condition of the heart and is all about seeking what is ephemeral, not acting with insight.
(psalm 14:1, 2) thus it rightly says the whole world is lying in the attraction of what is ephemeral.
(wicked one is not a correct translation.1 john 5:19) thus even believers who pray to god (for material blessings) are actually atheists as they are not trying to be poor in spirit.
DJS: I hope the world fills with atheists. Think about it - no more wars betwee X-tians and X-tians, X-tians and Muslims, Hindus and Muslims, Buddhists and Muslims, Muslims and Muslims, ad nauseum.

"Why is the world full of religious people?"
.
So how does this jibe with what some reported here about this summer's DCs, where it was stated from the platform that JWs may associate with DF relatives "discreetly"?
Is this a major WT contradiction between what's in print and what's spoken?
