Did this line of thought ever cross your mind?
by Awakened07 inok - first i should mention that this line of *hypothetical* thought may seem extreme, and it's obviously exaggerated to get a point across.
but it's just one of many, many logical constructs i had in my mind, even when i was still active:.
let's say we have a pioneer sister.

Die hard jw's see any problem with Sept km?
by carla inwill die hard jw's see any control issues with the sept km?
i once brought up the fact to my jw that jw's were not allowed to get together informally to do any kind of 'bible' studies without the approval of the elders, gb, etc.. he said that was totally ridiculous and false, more apostate lies.
this was long ago now and i'm not sure he even remembers saying it.

by Mile 0 inthis is why i believe the wts is so totally wrong on the blood issue.
blood, as it circulates through a living organism, is merely a bodily fluid.
it does not take on any special significance until that organism expires.

Where are YOU on the NEEDS Pyramid?
by lonelysheep injgnat's statement here reminded me of the needs pyramid, and my placement on it as a jw potential convert, as well as where i am now.
jgnat: "besides the failure to love their vocation, i think a big problem is that with the witnesses there is only one cause and only one activity.
there is no accommodation for various talents or abilities.
