I just did the unthinkable - I gave blood

by Magwitch in

omg - it feels great to give blood!.

frogit

Well done Magwitch I have given blood many time now to the NHS Blood and Transplant (England) each time I'm so pleased that I could be helping someone else.

You have to fill in a In depth questionnaire and have a short interview with a nurse before you can donate, some questions are very personal. On two occasions I have not been allowed to donate, once due to travelling and taking anti malaria tablets, six months grace was enforced, I was honest which all should be, if you are not sure about anything talk it out with the nurse on hand.

The safety of the blood supply is really important and is taken seriously. Only 4% donate blood here, so plenty more could.

I normally feel OK after donating but the last time December I did feel a little weak, not sure why as I usually feel very good. The proof: http://www.flickr.com/photos/whosphoto/4109519106/

Why did Jehovah create flu viruses?

by jambon1 in

jw
friends

seems rather odd to me really.. .

frogit

Did Jehovah create anything? This is what Sir David Attenborough said on a similar matter, that he receives hate mail from viewers of his films for failing to credit God in his documentaries. "They tell me to burn in hell and good riddance."

He was asked why he did not give "credit" to God, Attenborough added: "They always mean beautiful things like hummingbirds. I always reply by saying that I think of a little child in east Africa with a worm burrowing through his eyeball. The worm cannot live in any other way, except by burrowing through eyeballs. I find that hard to reconcile with the notion of a divine and benevolent creator..."

Evolution explains this better, all things are fighting for survival, even Viruses, no creator no Jehovah, if Jehovah created that worm and viruses to harm humans, his specilal creation, he must have a wicked and cruel mind, you would not let that happen to your own children would you?

But then again our immune system can fight flu, some will die but humans will survive.

Who is the Green Man?

....the green man ....is he also osiris?.

frogit

I have seen the Green Man in the Woods around here, you can see him in most Woods and Forests in England, you just have to look hard, and let you imagination wonder. It's just like staring or gazing at the clouds and patterns on curtains, eventually you begin to see faces and body shapes.

Robin Hood lived around here too, just up the road at Sherwood Forest from me.

Greatest man picture in the movie The Magdalene Sisters

by truthseeker in

jw
friends

has anyone watched "the magdalene sisters"?.

at the beginning of the movie this guy is beating a drum at some party.

the drummer happened to be a priest.. on the drum itself you can quite clearly see the following image, which is almost a copy of the image found in the greatest man book chapter 123.. .

frogit

I seem to remember that the Greatest Man picture was a copy of another famous painting hanging in some gallery, did do a google but failed to find the pinting online. I will try to find it.

Your All-Time Favorite Record/CD Albums by Musicians - Any Category ?

by flipper in

jw
friends

was looking through my collection and thought it would be cool to see what some of our favorite record albums of all-time are ?!

i like a variety of music - mostly rock n' roll, blues , reggae, and jazz but look forward to seeing some of your favorites !

here are my top 10 approximately .

frogit

Some great music listed here some I have in my collection some I have not heard of! Will check them out on my Spotify account http://www.spotify.com/en/ if anyone wants a free invite pm me (UK only I think) it's a really a great way to listen to high quality music on your PC especially if you have a good sound card and monitor speakers.

What amazes me is that most of the music listed here would have been a no no in the Truth, (i.e.: Led Zep, Nirvana, etc.) I was made to feel guilt by items on the platform and at assemblies for even liking some music. GUILT is the WTS main weapon of choice to control....

I'm happy now to explore the full genre of human music, and it's great to be able log back in here too. here's some:

Mike Oldfield-Tubular Bells

The Streets-A Grand Don't Come for Free

Dire Straits-Brothers In Arms

Pink Floyd-The Dark Side of the Moon

Nirvana-Nevermind

Joy Division-Substance

U2-War

Derek and the Dominos-Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs

Rod Stewart-every Picture Tells a Story

Do you condemn the Society's no-blood policy and still do not DONATE BLOOD?

by nicolaou in

it's your decision to make.

it would be as wrong of this community to insist everyone donate blood as it is of the cult to insist otherwise.

.

frogit

I donate blood love doing this, it's good to give back to the NHS they are brill, health care in the uk is fantastic. It hurts a bit, only slight scratch as they say, and sometimes it leaves you with a small bruise. Knowing that this slight discomfort could save someone else's life is very rewarding, should not living be rewarding? frogit

"Those with honest hearts", yada, yada, yada

by NotaNess in

jw
friends

i tell ya, some days are enough to make a person lose it.. i ask you, is it proper for a jw to ask someone to make up stories(lies) to tell other people, or to tell white lies just about every week of the year?.

and...is it a worldwide teaching that it is ok to have an organization's decal on the back of your vehicle that you don't belong to, and make others think you are one of those members???

how about if the organization is a city/government employee based organization?.

frogit

"Jehovah's Witnesses are taught to tell "white lies", they claim they dont teach that, but they do. It is called "Theocratic Warfare Strategy" I say blatant lies, not white lies! They teach as fact that the Bible is god's word, they have taught for many years about this real god, and it's all lies, dam lies! what truth do they spread??? frogit no more delusion's for me..

DID YOU HAVE RUBBISH SPEAKERS IN YOUR KH?

by badboy in

jw
friends

any takers?

frogit

Yes most are still are very poor at speaking and delivering talks, but it was not just the lack lustre speaking, but the lack of anything of use to speak about. I was good and public speaking and made the most of the "outline" to try and make the Talk as interesting as possible, but I was wasting my efforts, it was just crap that I was presenting.

The world is full of great understanding, but I spent most of my life being taught rubbish by rubbish speakers (who I looked up to), and thought wrongly that this was gods' spirit directed organisation on Earth, I now read and look for true and stimulating material that helps me have a fulfilled meaningful life!

Don't go to any KH and expect good speakers that present anything other then delusional teachings.....

Cairo fantastic place to visit, if you go get a good guide to show you around, as not all the stuff is labelled. Cameras are not allowed nowadays :-(.
