  what is he like in person?

  he seems deranged.

  do people get irritated at being spoken to like a 3 year old when they hear him speak?.

  I met him when he was a CO back in the 80's. It was my very first meeting and I mentioned to him that I was interested in the Bible. He shook my hand and with his eyes bucked out real big said, Yeah, the Bible!! Don't remember much else, just his facial expression though, I thought wow!

  I think the thing that kinda surprised me the most was they won't be printing any more yearbooks. We all thought the the org was in decline and those partaking would be really up there, especially this year. And I think we are all right. So the GB just said f*ck it! Fine, no more year books.

  Just shows how non transparent they really are. Really this is great news for us in the vast apostate army.

  i'm inactive here to the local jw's as i have faded.

  i've been slandered and all that, shunned by some but not all, but the elders basically leave me alone.

  i still run into to people all over though.

  Don't expect any more downsizing announcements at annual meetibg

  by nowwhat? in

  expect a day of fluff, more bells and whistles and boasting.

  they are not going to throw shade on their glorious day.

  but shortly thereafter when everyone's feeling good about themselves expect the hammer to come down during a morning worship broadcast..

  IF the org is truly fat with money then:

  $1 billion - $66 million equals $944 million left.

  BUT, if the org is NOT truly fat with money... ha ha suckers!

  "Give the Watchtower yet another black eye". I love that. Perhaps the victims will get something out of this, I hope they do.

  According to the photo, 10 people woke up. That's great. If that's any indication about witnesses in general, then many are and will be waking up.

  Let's talk about Blood again....

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. medical

  i know we have all talked about this topic before, but for some new ones on the forum, or to refresh ourselves, i wanted to start this thread.. the society likes to go on about the sacredness of blood, and how it should not be transfused etc.. they liken it to a symbol of life itself.

  something that should be respected and therefore not transfused.. but, what is more important: real life, or a symbol of life?.

  an illustration came to mind.. if we give a bunch of flowers to a loved one as a symbol of our love for them, are those flowers more important than the love itself?

  I am completely convinced that if a WT article came out tomorrow saying, that it's now ok to accept blood transfusions if a person's conscience allows it, then 99% of all witnesses would do so. No doubt about it.

  Same thing about blood fractions. While you were still in, how many DPA's did you come across that said NO to everything? I only know of one. And she was 80 years old at the time.
