I am a sinner and there is no denying that fact
by Girlie ini have struggled with this concept for quite some time.
i feel like the apostle paul in that he wishes to do right by god in controling this issue, but find it to be a law exercising complete control over him.
i find myself wondering what is the use in doing so?

this is a thread to anull our baptisium...
by highdose ini'll start:.
the borg makes a big deal out of the fact that everyone choses of their own free choice to be baptised, so on that same basis i see no reason why i can't chose to anul it.. i highdose here by anull my baptisium to the borg on the basis that:1) i had been both brain washed and pressured in to doing it 2) i did not understand what i was joining 3) i was a child 4) i never said my baptismal vows anyway 4)had i waited till i was adult i would never have gotten baptised.. therefore my baptisum is invaild ( not worth the paper its written on so to speak) i never was a jw, i'm not now and i don't intend to be ever in the future.. ...there that feels alot better!
would anyone care to join me?.

Watchtower Moving its Headquarters from USA?
by Amazing ini may be behind times, but i have not seen this issue come up.
i have had some contact with jws inside the organization who said that the society is planning to move its headquarters from brooklyn, ny to canada, lock, stock, and barrel.
is this an urban legend, a jw pulling my leg, or is it factual?

// .module-subheader article from: australian associated pressa dying man has been granted the right to refuse life-saving medical treatment on the grounds of his religious beliefs.. the man, aged in his 70s and known only as "mr a", was unconscious when admitted to the emergency unit of a hospital run by the hunter and new england area health service on july 1. he was suffering from septic shock and respiratory failure.. despite receiving treatment, he developed renal failure and by july 14 was being kept alive by mechanical ventilation and kidney dialysis.. on that day a document prepared on august 19, 2008, and signed by mr a surfaced in which he indicated he would refuse dialysis.. the hospital took the matter to the nsw supreme court to ensure the man's refusal of medical treatment was legal.. today, justice robert mcdougall found mr a's directives should be followed "even if the likely consequence of giving effect to mr a's wishes ... is that he will die".. in the documents, mr a stated: "as one of jehovah's witnesses i direct my guardian to refuse consent for a transfusion of whole blood, red cells, white cells, platelets, or blood plasma to be given to me under any circumstances even if heath-care providers believe that such are necessary to preserve my life.".
