Jehovah's Witnesses do not know their own doctrines
by BonaFide ini am still active to try and help family and friends, so that's why i say we.
i know i have brought this up before, but i cannot get over the fact that every service group i go in, and every dinner after the meeting, or coffee or whatever, no one seems to be reading the magazines.
no one understands the doctrines of the generation, 1919, not even blood.. when i bring up one of those subjects, one in the group will repeat the phrase we learned at the meetings, such as "blood fractions is not really blood" or "i think the generation refers more to the anointed or something like that.

Did you know JW's who worked in SALES?
by BonaFide inthe brothers and sisters that i knew that worked in sales did great in the congregation.
their presentations, their talks, their knowledge of all the publications, they were really on top of things.
those that worked in other fields sometimes really struggled at placing literature and in getting studies.. one brother in my hall used to have special sessions with those that wanted to improve their presentation.

"You Will Die Of Swine Flu Really Soon"
by inkling infrom: http://www.enduringvision.com/news/us_042809.php.
as more and more cases of swine flu are confirmed across the united states, experts throughout the nation have become increasingly certain that most likely, you will die from it really soon.. "swine flu has the potential to become a pandemic," said dr. alan lepow, an infectious disease specialist at the cleveland clinic, implying that eventually, we will all get the swine flu and then die.. what is swine flu?
nobody seems to be able to provide an answer that doesn't take expensive recording time to explain, but many experts seem to agree on one thing: swine flu is similar to the normal human influenza virus, except that instead of causing a runny nose and muscle aches, it causes painful, horrifying death.. one official from the center for disease control (cdc) likened the flu to a [zombie] "virus", something that will spread insidiously and relentlessly, until you'll try and seek help in a hospital, but the hospital will be dark and scary, because everyone inside will be dead from swine flu.. "for example," said jeffrey spalding, a man who was standing outside the cdc, "a child contracts swine flu, and passes it on to another child by attacking and biting the other child.
