Does anything about your religion trouble you as a Jehovah’s Witness or is it all good?

can you add to this:.

"does anything about your religion trouble you as a jehovah’s witness or is it all good?

some of the things that would trouble me if i were a jehovah’s witness would include:.

Does anything about your religion as a Jehovah’s Witness trouble you...?

Now there's a loaded question!🤣

Take the 'No Blood Doctrine' for example. The JWs don't accept whole blood transfusions...Okay! But they do accept fractions of blood...right! Yet they won't accept Plasma by itself or any of the other components by themselves...red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets... which amount to fractions of whole blood. Platelets are less than 1% (1/100) of the whole blood...white blood cells also makeup about 1% (1/100) of whole blood...red blood cells makeup 45% (43/100) of whole blood and plasma brings up the rear with making up about 53% (53/100) of the whole. Now if you add these 4 fractions together (1/100 + 1/100 + 45/100 + 53/100) you get 100% Whole Blood.

I'm confused...so which fractions of blood do Jehovah’s Witnesses accept?

Now if the JW No-Bood teaching isn't a conundrum & brain-teaser ...what is?🤣

by raymond frantz in

The WT Governing Body, GB Helpers, Bethelite members, Circuit Overseers, Pioneers, Missionaries, Special Pioneers are all a bunch of winnies/wimps/cowards! I believe all these characters fall under the group that is otherwise known as 'The Worldwide Order of Special Full-Time Servants of Jehovah’s Witnesse (The Order)'.

This entire cast of flunkies for nearly two years have been cooped-up behind their compound gated communities or apartment dwellings afraid to venture out of doors in fear of catching the sniffles! Compare them to hero-like members of such humane organizations as the following:

1) Doctors Without Borders

2) The American Red Cross

3) The International Red Cross

4) The International Medical Corp

5) Mèdecins Du Monte

6) Dircect Relief Mission

7) World Vision International

8) Your local Police Department

9) Your local Fire Department

10) Your local Health Care Providers (Doctors & Nurses)

11) Your local Food Distribution Centers (Grocery Store Workers)

12) Some Outstanding Religious Organizations

Many members of the above list from 1 through 12 have paid the ultimate price as they served for the best interest of their fellow man. On the other hand...'The Worldwide Order of Special Full-Time Servants of Jehovah’s Witnesse' (The Order) will only come out of there hiding places after being assured that it is safe to do so...What Chicken-Shits!

Door to door again?

by Zeds Dead in

do you think the jdubs will start up the door whacking again one day?.

there has to be many inside the org that are dreading having to do that again and as for the general public seeing this, it’s hard to imagine.

.

JW GoneBad

Ya well if they intend to go door to door any time soon they'll have to do it without the Awake & Watchtower magazines...last I heard they had to stop production for several months...Why?...Who in the hale knows!

More cracks in the dam - WTS pleading for elders "in their early 20s"

i have another post here about how the wts is reeling from covid, as reflected in their abysmally catastrophic service report:.

https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/6315842470936576/annual-service-report-yet-another-analysis-big-trouble-wts.

here's another rupture showing.. in the latest "announcements and reminders" to elders, there is a paragraph with these sentences:.

JW GoneBad

D.O.C. says:
A real blessing was cutting the Public Talk from an hour to 45 minutes to just 30 minutes.

That speaks volumes...when Mother (WT) herself reduces the Elders' public talks in half...from 60 minutes to 30 minutes. It shows She can't trust her own Dudes to 'Carry A Tune' so to speak. Hell, it wouldn't surprise me if she were cut the PublicTalk to 15 minutes in the not too distant future!

Annual service report - yet another analysis - big trouble for the WTS

there's already been a couple of threads on the 2021 report with insightful comments, but i'm vain enough to want to start my own topic with some additional thoughts..... as others on the other thread noted, it's useful to compare the 2021 numbers not only to 2020 but also 2019 (the last non-pandemic report).. there are some really troubling (if you're a wt headquarters guy) news in the latest report.. 1) baptisms plummet.

2021 - 171,393. baptisms dropped 20% in 2020, and 30% more in 2021. the total drop from 2019 to 2021 is an amazing 44%.. one could argue that without in-person assemblies and conventions you'd expect baptisms to drop.

but....if someone really wants to get baptized, jws will find a way.

JW GoneBad

Either way is fine by me asp59...I sort like your image better though...depicting a swifter, sudden & unsuspecting demise...Yay!👍

It won't be long folks...give it 5 to 10 years or so...before the WTBTS goes by way of the Rambler Automobile...

Poor Llyod

by notsurewheretogo in

look...i've had my beef with lloyd aka cedars and some of the stuff he says or does but equally i respect what he is trying to do and what he has achieved in terms of waking people up.. he intimated he had mental health issues years ago but his video today is brutal...i see pain in his eyes and he is suffering.

his family come first and the man needs to heal.. yes he has issues that many on here see but its not the man that is important but his work.. but the man needs time to heal mentally and i wish he does so.

he deserves that despite the feelings and things that have happened in the past with the exjw community.. he has done so much for the exjw community in general that i hope all give him a little clack and he returns.. if any of us did what he did we may be in the same boat but none of us do...see past the man and see his work but equally the man is suffering and it is pretty sad...i hope he gets better soon.

JW GoneBad

"Poor Lloyd"...not so fast!

Me thinks 'Mother' may have had a private word with him...either directly or indirectly through one of her worldly legal connections and made Lloyd Evans a handsome offer (an early retirement plan) he couldn't refuse!

So many are waking up. Pandemic gave jws time to think.

by pistolpete in

this is not about stats, but "actual experiences" happening world wide in the organization.

there is about 156 comments of what some jws are seeing in their congregation.

feel free to read and come to your own conclusion on whether the watchtower organization is turning pimo but no one says anything in order to keep family relations.

"So many are waking up..."

We had the visit of the CO & his wife about a month ago. Ordinarily in this congregation I'm affiliated with of the 80 participants on zoom its 50/50...50% with camera on & 50% with camera off. You'd think out of respect for this CO & the wife of the CO more would of had their camera on...like 80/20...nope still 50% on & 50% off. More & more JWs are giving a shit about the 'Ocho Loco' or put another way...'Loco Ocho'!

Did I hear you ask: What is 'Ocho Loco'?

In the Latin communities and Countries it's lingo for WT's 8 GB leaders...'Crazy Eight'! In other words in the Latin community reverence and recognition for the GB being God's chosen mouthpiece is rapidly disappearing!

Back to the visit of the CO...I'm sure in the CO's report to 'Mother' he's obliged to include the number of participants & % of cameras' on. Me thinks...not only the CO but Bethel higher-ups are concerned as well about lack of interest pertaining to zoom meetings.
