while researching something else, i came across these two comments from a wt on how we should view the blood issue, when it comes to our pets.. *** w64 2/15 p. 127 questions from readers ***.

"would it be a violation of the scriptures for a christian to permit a veterinarian to give blood transfusions to a pet?

by all means, to do so would be a violation of the scriptures.".

i have become more observant at the last couple district conventions of jws faces and enthusiasm and it seems to be very somber.

i remember a couple of years ago i was an attendant at one of the upper sections at the blue cross arena in rochester, ny and in afternoon session at least half were curled up with their eyes closed, some with blankets.

the applause seems very forced and mechanical.

Assembly News Photo

this photograph from a news site is a succinct summary of a life in wt's hands....... look at their faces, it says it all.. also, note the watchtower pr machine in action, explaining that it brings 4 million dollars to the location.

(10,000 x 400 dollars) clearly a watchtower statistic, where is the care and interest for members who are struggling so much, with new videos encouraging less career activity, less work commitments, at an all time economic low for our generation.. http://www.standard-freeholder.com/2014/06/15/thousands-attend-watchtower-convention-in-cornwall.

father: "i'm a wt 'yes' man and proud of it!

Marrying a Black Person
by ThomasCovenant in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
we are not living today among aryan nations where such members of our fleshly family relationship could be exterminated for marrying a black, as was possible and was ordered in the early days of apartheid.. being limited by the laws of the new south african nation in which we live, we can take action against those who marry blacks only to a certain extent, that is, consistent with current laws.

the law of the land forbids us to kill them, even though they be members of our own flesh-and-blood family relationship.
