Reminds me of a joke.
This turtle was mugged by two snails. The police arrived, and asked the turtle if he got a look at the assailants. "I don't know," he said, "It all happened so fast."

Blood Show on Discovery Channel
by ChuckD indid anyone happen to catch the show on the cable tv discovery health channel this past weekend about blood?
i tuned in mid-way through it, just in time to see them covering bloodless surgery planned for a jw woman.
the patient was a very heavy, diabetic woman who needed heart surgery.. what i found interesting was that the patient refered to herself as a "jehovah witness" (sic) while the narrator of the program used the correct pronounciation.

Unlike you, perhaps, I think that someone should at least know the correct NAME of the organization if they are willing to put their life at risk for it.

Tina, I am very sorry to say that my Tivo seems to have has erased the program to make room for some other stuff. I should have programmed it to keep it until I manually deleted it. The name of the program was "Cure or Kill?" or something like that. I'll keep me eye out for a rebroadcast, and get the whole program on tape if it comes around again.
Concerning NYT's comment, when I was a Witness, I found it annoying when people did not pronounce the name of the organization correctly. Don't you? I find that people who use the phrase "Jehovah Witness" usually don't know too much about them, and this phrase serves as a bit of a shibboleth.
Do you not find it odd that a Witness who was willing to subject themselves to such a risky procedure on the basis of their faith would be so ill-informed about the organization that they could not even say the name right?

I think I still have this segment of the show on my Tivo machine, in case anyone wants me to put it on tape for them.

A Voice for SJ
by radar ini have been watching john edwards and his tv programme: crossing over.
this man is evidently very sincere in his belief that those that have "passed over" to the other side(spirit life) desire to speak to the "living" who have been left grieving for their loved ones.. this man has demonstrated many times, a remarable ability in revealing knowledge of events and relationships peculiar only to those people he speaks with.. he says he recieves these messages in various forms.. .
i am wondering what sjs take on this is, seeing she claims similar experiences?.

I think a far more likely explanation for the kind of performances that John Edward does can be seen at;

Does our little crusade matter to the world?
by sleepy indoes our little crusade matter to the world?.
considering jw's make up such a small part of the worlds population to what extent do our beefs with the organisation matter to anyone unconnected?.
should our opinions of witness beliefs concern people more than witness themselves .should everyone have the right to make up there own mind and chose to be witnesses without us interfereing?.

Not everyone here is on such a crusade. I am not championing the downfall of the WTS at all, although I am certainly no fan of the organization. All I would hope to do is help individuals who want to leave to do so, and to warn those who are looking to join what awaits them.
