Immunizations?
by crazy2try ini have a question.
today at work a woman was saying that she was upset because the foster mother of her children had taken the children to the dr and they received their immunization shots.
she told a co-worker that she was mad because they did not respect her beliefs.

As Witnesses we were Trained to be Obedient - Rather than Show Love
by flipper ini can list many examples of this : probably the most glaring thing i saw proving this in 1982 was when an 83 year old sister died of a heart attack on the stage at an assembly part where she gave her experience then sat down next to me and died right on my shoulder on the stage.
i motioned to a brother sitting near me on the stage to help me carry her off the stage - which we did - and the brother and i behind the curtain tried administering cpr.
a registered nurse ran behind the curtain from the audience also - but the annoying thing is the elder giving the talk just kept right on talking to the 3,000 in the audience with no reference to what had just happened !

Have you ever won anything? In a raffle, lottery, etc?
by restrangled ini am so disgusted right now, more with myself than anything.. we have this big albertsons grocery store monopoly game going where i live.....the more of certain products you buy, the more tickets you receive.
not only are there instant winners, but then you enter codes on line.. ha....after 2 months, i've won $5.00 and a bottle of clorox beach.
i have spent more than i ever would have normally.

Other Religions use the Name JEHOVAH too
by UnDisfellowshipped inare jehovah's witnesses really the only religion that promotes and preaches the name of jehovah?.
jw's are always claiming that they are the only religion that preaches and uses the name jehovah, and that is why only they will be saved.
for example, look at this quote from the watchtower:.

Sunday School
by Quillsky inwhy don't jw's have sunday school for kids?
i don't want to give the cult any ideas, but it sure would help them to keep the families in, plus be more mainstream in the eyes of the public.. oh my god, the indoctrination you could do on little minds in sunday school, rather than the mind-numbing age-inappropriate stuff kids have to sit through in the watchtower study..
