  New baby on the way... and transfusions

  it's been a while since i posted life updates.

  this time we are having a baby boy come along in a few months.

  off course nothing is ever easy, my wife is extremely anemic to the extent we are being referred to a hematologist for iron and/or packed red blood cells and potential full blood transfusions.

  Yeah, me too. I say 20k. People are waking up and some of those who wake up, keep hold as a Christian and start to partake.

  I distinctly remember this one guy. He was mowing his lawn and I walked up to him and he said, "NO!" as in to say get lost. I asked him, "Do you know who we are?" He replied, "I don't care!" and turned his mower around and kept on mowing.

  I thought to myself, ah, he's dead. I wanted to turn around and telling him, he's as good as dead, but didn't.

  So, yeah, give me a blowhorn.

  Which Bible Translation

  by moreconfusedthanever in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i have seen a few comments about the nwt being an altered version of the bible and i must admit that when they released the new one it did not sit right with me.. i want to read the bible but not the nwt.

  i also do not want to read one that has the thee and thou and ye etc because that will do my head in.. what translations do you recommend?.

  win my first post i introduced you to tweedle dee and tweedle dum, ( surprise elders visit ).

  well last sunday night i got phone call from t- dum, he informed me that t-dee was listening in, no doubt practicing his short hand.

  t-dum went on to say how he was concerned that we were making the biggest mistake of our lives, yada yada.

  As fellow apostates, let's try to get along. I've said things that got a few votes down, but I don't let it bother me too much. It's actually a good thing that we DO have opinions, whereas JW's simply don't. They are afraid to disagree, they fear that.

  Here we can vent. So go ahead and vent, but vent politely if possible.

  UN Association

  2. experiences

  so this happened awhile back ago, i was talking to this bethelite that i respect, i consider him to be very sincere.

  this was during the time i had discovered the un association the society had as an ngo.

  i already knew the answer, but to see his response, i asked him "was the society ever part of the united nations?

  I tried to tell someone about the UN thing. All they said back to me is that I wasn't very humble if all I wanted to do was bring down the society and why am I not being humble. (be humble, sit down)

  So if the "society" shot and killed a bunch of folks, then "all I'm trying to do is bring down the society". Hmmm.

  Why I like this site

  by UnshackleTheChains in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the reason i like this site is in the fact that it speaks the truth warts and all.

  the very title 'jehovahs witness discussion forum' draws the avarage witness to the site, perhaps thinking it is 'apostate' free.. the good thing is that jw's can read the real truth about the organisation/society...no holds barred.

  my hope is that more people caught up in this captive religious organisation will open their eyes to reality!.

  If they stopped the monthly report card ?

  witnessing would cease, would it flow on to attendance numbers at meetings and then total decimation of the church..

  I was always told that they need your time so that the society knows where to send special pioneers and where the need is great, and also how to keep up with literature demands. Back in the day, I really believed it. Now it's all a sham for sure.
