Banned dual baptism
by 5thGeneration ini just saw the beautiful picture of my wife being baptized with her grandfather 20 years ago that i framed for her.. then i remembered that the society has now banned being baptized along side a loved one and sharing it them.. they of course feel that baptism is between you and jehovah.
not true!.
dedicating yourself is between you and jehovah not the visual display of baptism.

Lurkers! How do you put up with it?
by PopeOfEruke ini just cannot understand how any one in their right mind can read the experiences here concerning the wachtower society's false claims, lies, trickery and deceit, and the example shown by the so-called "elders" in treating the flock with disdain and cruelty, and still stay a jehovah's witness.. lurkers, how can you do that?
do you simply dismiss all the evidence?
have any of you experienced such evil acts personally and still stay connected to the jw's?.

1914 - Is this literature still current ?
by AlphaOmega inthis is strange, i read that in 1995 they did away with the "generation" teaching, yet the official watchtower website still says this, over 12 years later !.
thus, all the features of the last days must take place within the lifetime of one generation, the generation of 1914. so some people who were alive in 1914 will still be alive when this system comes to its end.
that generation of people is now very advanced in years, indicating that there is not much time left before god brings this present system of things to an end.. http://www.watchtower.org/library/pr/article_07.htm.

Deaths Due to Watchtower Blood Doctrine - Statistic on one patient populat
by Marvin Shilmer indeaths due to watchtower blood doctrine - statistics on one patient population.
to date there is no vetted study of records offering estimates of overall mortality and morbidity attributable to the wts blood doctrine.
vetted literature frequently expresses adherence to the wts blood doctrine as causing premature death and/or disease, but the question of overall mortality and morbidity is very complex and, so far, unaddressed statistically.

The Hyena - Testament to a Grand Creator! No, wait....
by PopeOfEruke inwhat a masterful example of jehovahs's loving kindness and wisdom is the hyena.. most carefully jehovah designed the birth canal of the female hyena to abruptly do a 140 degree turn just before the normal place of exit for the birth canal and change direction back to the head of the mother.
the birth canal then ends in what is generally referred to as a female pseudo-penis, a narrow tube exiting the body exactly where the male penis does.. .
when the young hyena mother first gives birth, most times the young get stuck around the bend or lower down in the tight "penis", where they suffocate and die.
