breeze . . .that's okay. I can't imagine what you would experience ( head wise ) if you combined trippin'
on the 'shrooms with believing " The End " was going to happen any day, especially if it was 1975.

Breeze . . . you're sixty. Where were you in the seventies ? We heard about it, knew people that did it . .

i visited my jw son and daughter - who were raised in the faith - in may.
my son is 37 years old, intelligent and is a hard worker and a good provider for his family.
we were having breakfast when my daughter-in-law mentioned the ' lump' on my sons back.
I visited my JW son and daughter - who were raised in the faith - in May. My son is 37 years old, intelligent and is a hard worker and a good provider for his family.
We were having breakfast when my daughter-in-law mentioned the ' lump' on my sons back. My son removed his shirt and showed me a palm-sized fatty lump of tissue on the upper right side of his back. He told me he discovered it a couple of months ago ( March ). Long story short, I have since that time been unable to convince him to have a biopsy. He tells me he is taking herbs and vitamins for it ! My sister and I have pleaded with him to get it checked out by a specialist . . . as of this date no luck. My ex-wife ( their JW Mother ) of 30 years loves herbs and vitamins to treat sickness. Herbs and vitamins have their place in healing, but not in this case ! I am shocked to discover that my smart, hard working son is not taking the most basic of precautions concerning his health.
I have long known that JW's shy away from traditional medicine, but this is absolutely absurd. Please someone tell me if this is conventional behavior for JW's and if you have any insight into how I can approach this situation I would be forever thankful.

i just heard that two of the fathers of childhood friends of mine, one of them the first boy i ever loved, and the other the head of a good catholic family with eight kids who lived across the street from us, died within days of each other.
im my mind, those families are frozen in time about 35 years ago when i last saw any of them, and i couldnt conceive of them being gone.. i dont know why but those two men being gone really got to me.
i wasnt close to them or anything but it brought home the very real thought that my own parents are going to go soon...and leave me and my two sibs on the planet to carry on.
But I do agree wholeheartedly with, " God damn the Watchtower for tearing our families apart."

Yeah . . .what Stealth said !
turning a life affirming rule into a death-dealing policy is an amazing accomplishment.
we can thank the watchtower society for a mindset which makes this possible.. i've gone into great detail before about the watchtower blood policy itself.
it is a blatant and deliberate publicity stunt which takes the rather simple prohibitions of the laws of noah for gentiles on murder .
supperhooper:
". . .if a person dies for there faith, it can make them the happiest person in the world and make them feel at ease."
If you made someone I loved believe the above and they died because of it, I would see to it that you would be faced with the same situation in the very near future.

I'm alive today because I had a blood transfusion 26 years ago. My brother lived for 19 years after he was
horribly mangled by a mortor from the Viet Cong.
It's obvious you live in a world of words, not deeds.
i didn't want these buried deep in the favorite quotes thread because they are just too dang funny and/or weird.

that masturbation is abnormal and unnatural is also indicated by the fact that abnormal, mentally deranged people are notorious masturbators.
Abusively hilarious !
