  Sixofnine : It;s getting late, I'm getting tired .... So I've had a weakness ... like I said .. hope you don't ever go there. Maybe you could do some research on addiction before you pat yourself too much on the back. Like walk a mile in my shoes?

  The blood issue is the blood issue. You see it your way ... I'll see it mine. It's really none of my concern what you think.

  And about hurting people ... I'm sure you've done your fair share. You're trying hard enough with me but I've been around enough to let comments from people like you roll right off ... ng

  Sixofnine : Maybe I was too quick to thank you for sharing. If you can talk to me without blowing a gasket, I'll try again. I'm not known for lying .. friends of mine will NOT take blood and they are not JWs. Anyone who's read the news in the last, say, 20 years knows the dangers of blood. Think maybe Jehovah was protecting us with this edict.

  You can say what you want about smoking, but I never had a cigarette I didn't like. Money and my health were of no concern ... all that mattered was the next puff. Like it or not, that is what addiction is all about. Hope you never go there.

  Take care ... northern girl.

  teejay : Thanks for the welcome. You sound like a very nice person (for an exJW ..lol). When or if I get reinstated I certainly will have to curb my natural curiosity and kiss the internet good bye. At the moment though, I'd give it up in a flash to be back in the group. Thanks again ...northern girl.

  SixofNine : Being on the outside looking for some time now, I've had many people tell me that there is no way they or their family members would ever take a blood transfusion. They have no idea what my beliefs are so are telling me this with no 'strings'. I am friends with the head of nursing in a hospital and she wouldn't allow any of her family to take blood either. What she will do is periodically store her own blood. She says most people who get blood would have made it without blood but the doctors are covering their proverbial ***.

  I can speak first hand that shunning is not nice. Even so, I agree with the org. that the cong. must be kept clean. If they had welcomed me back while I still smoked, what would have been my incentive to clean up my act.

  Aztec : Did you do research on cults on your own or just hear from exJWs. There is a big difference because what you learn here is bound to be slanted against JWs. It's pretty easy to label a group as a cult and then close your mind to any further learning ... northern girl

  Cassi : Thanks for the welcome. I believe God's word is the bible as a guide for us. God is the head of Jesus, Jesus is the head of man. Jesus is our intermediary to God and through the scriptures we get our guidance. I believe the GB is inspired by God and are doing His will for us. Otherwise, with no leadership, we'd all go our own way like sheep without a shephard ... northern girl.
