i know i still have a ways to go but many of the hardest steps have been undertaken... and i have an interview for a new job, so my working with a guy who is a jw, might be taken out of my environment so i can go somewhere that is not only closer to home (short commute) but also no one will know i was ever a jw.

A conversation with JW's about blood fractions
by catch22 inbeing an ex-jw for some years now, we assumed that jw's would have some answers to the blood fractions allowed since they can no long claim they abstain from blood.
we recently were called on by an elder and what appeared to be a brother he was training.
they gave us blood videos, both of which spoke nothing about what was allowed.

Does the faithful slave exist?
by XQsThaiPoes ini have known a few anointed and a few bethlites.
after researching pubilcations and the watchtower websites i belife the faithful slave does not exist in a tangible form and is a ghostwriter for the entire org.
everything is subcontracted from mostly the great crowd now billed as corespondants.

The Bible
by particlesnwaves5 inin the friends forum a topic was brought up about what belief made persons leave the organization.
while certain witness beliefs did cause me to doubt, i think learning certain facts about the bible was what made me finally leave.
i think it would be interesting, while controversial, to have an intense conversation about the bible and whether it is concretely true or not.

Anointing?
by link ini have recently been trying to get my head round the subject of anointing.
i have not had much success so was hoping that someone on the board might be able to help.. my understanding is that gods early kings had oil placed on their heads and received his holy spirit at the time of their appointment.
the process of placing the oil on the head is properly referred to as anointing but when this practice ceased it was the receipt of the holy spirit that was known by this term.

Yes/No - Will the good news ever be preached through out the earth?
by eyeslice inno - not by jehovah's witnesses.
there seems to be no clear line from the society on how much preaching needs to be done before the "end".
the "stones would cry out" principle is sometimes aluded to but i was/am a little vague on the official line.
