so when did disfellowshipping start? and what took them so long??
by oompa ini should know this but have been really slack as of late....i think it was the late 50's maybe?
i would like to know what wt they introduced this new light in.. i also wonder how they kept the rank and file under their control prior to the implementation of df and their loving ways of shunning.....anybody know?....prior to df rules wt may have been a cool place to hang out (not).... i guess you could get drunk, fool around, do drugs all without ramifacations...sounds as good as christendom even................................oompa.

"origins" of teachings/holidays matter, but not to anything JW
by oompa injw's are always saying the origins of things are pagan...referring to all holidays and false doctrines that all other religions are chock full of.
so why does it not matter that the "modern day" orginazations origins were full of what we now know were false teachings?
and they followed one man...russel, then rutherford for many years...which is their own unique definition of part of what a "cult" is.. instead of placing any emphasis on how pagan or wrong the origins of early teachings of wt are...they simply say there has been new light.

why would jehovah need to "rest" in the first place? july 15, 2011 WT
by oompa inthe july 15 wt mentioned how god is still resting...confident that his plan is being worked out.
for some reason i had never thought about why the hell god would even need or want a "rest day"....i mean for crying out loud according wt god only created one thing....da baby jesus.
how boring to let him create everything else.

is getting a blood transfusion in itself a DF offense?
by oompa ini know if you join the military it is considered that you have dissassociated yourself...but if you are in an accident and are given blood when you are unconcious...is that in itself reason for df?
or what if you willingly accepted a blood transfusion?
what if you do not show remorse or repentance or even refuse to meet with the elders?
