  Why can Witness Doctors give Transfusions and sisters sell cigarettes??

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  it's a "mortal sin" for a witness to not "abstain from blood" or smoke, yet witness elders who work in the medical field are free to administer blood transfusions.

  and sisters that work in a supermarkets in the section that sells smokes are free to do so.....it's like not being immoral yourself but being a "pimp daddy" for others..

  Why Can JWs Eat Turkey On Thanksgiving & Still Say They Aren't Celebrating?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i don't get it.. the idea is that it's ok to eat food on any day as everyday is a day of thanksgiving.

  it was the only holiday that i knew witnesses to celebrate.. .

  For the same reason that they have "present day" a few days after Christmas.Take advantage of the sales and get and give gifts,but still be able to say how "different" they are from everyone else...

  maybe someone could post a picture.. on the front is a question to the householder, 'how do you view jesus?'.

  then it gives multiple choices with accompanying pictues: .

  "Ooooohhhh I just CANT WAIT for Armageddon!"

  by TimothyT in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  in my congregation i could name at least 10 brothers, and likely more, who just couldnt wait for armageddon to come.

  the way they spoke about it clearly showed that they were just so excited.

  you could just see their eyes light up at the prospect of the wicked being destroyed and removed from this earth.

  Can anyone prove that birthday celebrations are forbidden by God?

  by FaithfulBrother in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i know that there is no mention of any birthday celebrations in the bible besides the two which were celebrated by non-believers.

  and it just so happened that on each of these events, someone died (one non-believer and one believer).

  but does it mean that just because the bible mentions these two events, that all birthday celebrations are forbidden?

  warning: offensive and racist awake!

  magazine.... really, how great are racial differences?

  sooner or later each of us who does not have a significant other goes out on the trail armed with our crappy photo and lame self-descriptions and awkward smile in search of our prey: an exciting mate!.

  who'd have thunk it?

  it ain't easy.. not easy, why?
