  Died Due To Refusing Blood Transfusion

  by rrb2016 in

  well, last monday my mother, a jehovah's witness since her baptism in 1968 died last week because she would not accept a blood transfusion.

  she was 76 and had lung and skin cancer.

  i know that the cancer would have gotten her anyway, but she was bleeding internally, and was told that she needs a blood transfusion, as her blood count went all the way down to 3.2 (should be 12-14.

  Sadden by your loss.

  Your mother died due to lung and skin cancer; internal bleeding cannot be stopped by mere transfusing blood, only elongate the already horrible, painful circumstances.

  May the good memories provide you comfort.

  Some are still drinking the 'Kool-Aid'!

  Heard over the weekend of a young couple, living very comfortably due to inheritances and profitable business, that is prepping their home because they're selling to simplify their life in order to both pioneer where the 'need is great'.

  OMG, some people are still big time blinded by the WTBTS. Unreal!

  Are you implying that all 'mutts' (mixed race) look alike? (smiles)

  Remember when you 1st learned "The Truth"? Want to experience that tingle in a new way?

  you can't unring a bell once rung.. you can't unknow nor can you forget being deceived, tricked, lied to and misled.. the truly awful aftershock of waking up to the 'truth about the truth' is the death of wonder,.

  belief, and absolute certainty that you know what life is all about.

  in fact, for most of us the path is the same.we begin investigating our foundational belief system.

  Born-in. Never felt that 'tingle', just went through the motions and when very young got baptized to please my parents.

  Currently in search of a hobby that would satisfy my intellect.

  Why do witnesses feel the need to put JW ORG on all their social media sites?

  by stuckinarut2 in

  1. jw

  have you all noticed the obsession witnesses have of putting jw.org on all their social media sites like facebook, twitter, instagram etc?.

  so many put it in their bio section...like some sort of loud proclamation to other witnesses that they are righteous and spreading the message.. it's also very lazy.

  now with no personal effort at all, they can just say jw.org and be "witnessing".

  No JW pin here, or on my car as many are now doing.

  Been asked to display it by family and other JW friends. Have declined.

  Oh-oh, yet another mark as being 'unspiritual'. Damn it!

  Do not be fooled, the WTBTS is doing quite well financially:

  • they're making a killing with the sales of their NY HQ and other bethel/KH/branch properties around the world.
  • Now that they've reduced the small assemblies to 1-day, they're receiving double the contribution amount from 2 circuits that use the same assembly place in one weekend (1 on Saturday and the other on Sunday); this was a very clever, profit-motivated move (of course, it was directed by the 'Holy Spirit').
  • With them going 'electronic', only here in the USA, the profits are immense; imagine how much more when they reach this capability worldwide.
  • On top of the massive profits, the savings accrued with the releasing of special pioneers/missionaries/district overseers/bethelites around the world are immense as well.
  • Now that the old gizzard zealots are dying off, and with they increasing F.O.G. rhetoric, surely they're being funneled large $$$ and valuables (you know how one must honor Jehovah with our valuable things. wink, wink).

  The WTBTS is doing extremely well financially at this time.

  They better enjoy it and invest it wisely. The new generation of JWs are coming, and they're much better informed on their bs.

  Thanks WWW!!!

  It's all about 'time counting' man!

  And every time I receive a 'like' or get a hit on any jw videos, etc., it's activity that gets reported monthly. I hate to report in such a deceitful way, but it's necessary to keep up with the silliness of this Org.

  yep, im still fading.

  i know it's gonna be a long and meticulous process but so far it's going well.

  isnt it funny how when you stop reading the material and stop thinking yourself of being unworthy all the time - eventually you get happier and happier each day and see the world around you the way it is?

  All well Internet-connected people know what's going on and do not take the WTBTS teachings without skepticism. The young are gone, they're gone, gone; physically hanging in there only due to their parents being in and dragging them to JW activities, but you can see and feel clearly they've left already. Good!!!

  The WTBTS is in huge trouble; all their old crazies who thought that by now they'd be petting lions, cobras and bears and dying off and even they are discouraged to the max.

  I'm not saying their days are numbered, but certainly they increasingly becoming like their archenemy Christendom, people will claim to be JWs but it will be 'in name only' and doing only what is convenient and makes sense in their lives. Definitely buffet style; many, many, many inside are already on these terms.

  This is the best a false prophet can expect from their most conditional followers.

  The WWW is the best thing ever invented!!!
