Could the ancient Jews eat pig fractions?

by JeffT in

jw
friends

the recent threads on blood fractions got me to thinking about ways to expose the absurdity of the watchtower's position on blood.

so i thought of the titular question.

would a hebrew have understood the prohibition on pork as meaning he had to avoid "major" pig fractions (ham, bacon, ribs) but "minor" pig fractions like pickled feet and fried pork rinds were ok?

That really makes it simple, JeffT, especially when JWs always want to use the old testament to 'prove' their 'logical' reasoning.

(They just don't like it when you do it back, haha!)

came across this on exjw reddit and i cracked up laughing.. for those who are still required to attend the convention for one reason or another here is something that could liven up the day - jw convention bingo.

.

it would be hilarious if someone were to jump up and shout bingo!

Haha! Great Idea! Even if I was "still in" I think I would have 'fun' just tickin' these off, to prove how dumbed down these things are... I think I would go crazy!

I have been trying to find a picture of the guy who led Australia to the investigation (and uncovering) of Jehovah's Witnesses! Whoala! Here he is, with Lara Kaput. Check out the article, the march goes on!

https://www.facebook.com/events/537526336641762/

Steven Unthank and Lara Kaput will be discussing how we can support Jehovah’s Witness survivors and the upcoming class action against the Jehovah’s Witness organization. Their shared objective is to campaign for recognition and support for their community. In conjunction with global advocates, they provide facts to professionals and Government bodies from their personal experiences and from ongoing dialogue with former Jehovah’s Witnesses and experts.

I Think It’s Great That ExJWs Have Gotten Politically Involved!

remember when we could never say an opinion regarding politics?

it’s refreshing to see that we can tell everyone what our political stances are and have no fear of shunning .

I voted for the first time this year!!! Aaaaand, I worked at the polls! It feels so good to be able to make cast my vote in the direction I want. I want a voice, I have one!

Like one guy said, after voting, "If you don't vote, you have no right to complain" haha!

Am I imagining this cover or what?

by carla in

i am trying to remember a cover of a wt or awake that had a picture of a priest or maybe even the pope.

i think the issue came out in the height of the catholic sexual abuse cases and being disappointed in your religion or something like that.

i have searched this site and google images but not be using the correct key words.. the reason i am looking for it is because should it come up that jw's are being persecuted due to all the recent publicity i would like to ask a jw if the wt and the mainstream media were 'persecuting' the catholic church when they were uncovering wrongdoing in that religion or any other.

Anders Anderson... Thanks for posting that damning evidence against the WT.

WT has a LOT of nerve condemning others. It's ok for THEM to call the Catholics hypocrites, and expose their pedophilia, but if ANY one says ANY thing about THEM (the WT)...

It's all 'hateful, stinking, rotten, apostate lies, not to be believed'

Funny how similar the victims of the Catholic church and Jehovah's Witnesses are:

"Each one tried to seek justice "within the pastoral context of the church." NCR concludes: Survivors go to the courts, it appears, not as a first resort, but as a last resort."

Does that sound familiar?

Whoop there it is!!!!

walked into panda express for lunch the other day and there was a unusually long line.

i notice a large group of folks that had a familiar dress and smile on their faces.

the women dresses below the knees and the men wearing the top of line goodwill special suits.

cha ching

Yep, I see the same thing... I was at a Mexican dine in/ take out restaurant and noticed the suits & dresses, and wondered... but when the children are wearing suits and dresses, most likely they are Jdubs.

I recognized one guy who my husband helped thru a hard time when he was young, and he recognized me... no word said. I escaped.
