Teenage Jehovah's Witness loses court bid to refuse life-saving blood transfusion
by Sapphy inhttp://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-09-27/jehovahs-witness-loses-bid-to-refuse-blood/4985476.
interesting verdict, that despite the judge "...noting he was highly intelligent, a "mature minor" and devoted to his faith, the judge also found the boy had been "cocooned in that faith" for his entire life.".
the young man is 18 in 5 months and will be able to refuse treatment after that.

I asked an elder today...from the horse's mouth!
by Julia Orwell intoday's watchtower made out that the combining of branch offices around the world is a loving provision from jehovah to streamline the production, but i had to ask an elder afterwards, even though i already knew the answer.... "if the wts is selling off bethels and brooklyn property and cutting the publishing costs and commitments, then where is all that money going?".
elder replies, "well the donations are just not coming in anymore and so they have to sell off property to stay afloat.".
gee, i thought if this was jehovah's approved organisation carrying vital truth to the world, then he'd be making sure the donations would be sufficient.

Plesae help - source of JW teachings on 'army of stars' teaching
by Qcmbr inhi, continuing my discussions with my jw friend he mentioned that genesis 2:1 'host' of heaven was actually a reference to an army of stars.
he mentioned that the same phraseology is used in psalms and he quoted a psalm (i think!
) which had actual names of stars in it.
