JW Witnessing Trolleys. To approach or ignore what is your preference and why?
by KateWild ini saw two brothers this morning next to the main train station in liverpool city centre this morning.
they were not actively approaching anyone.
what i found strange was that they were from a cong that has different territory, so i don't know why they were there.. anyway i knew them both, and they know i was df'd, i was in my car and couldn't park up for a chat, but i did beep and wave to them as i drove passed and they waved back.

Perhaps it's my shyness, but I generally don't approach strangers and speak with them if I don't have to. Maybe a few years ago, but it's been years since I did door-to-door, street work, parking lots, phones...I'm out of practice in confronting strangers and telling them why they are wrong about something or another like I did when I was a JW.
I saw a cart in front of DMV last month...I said hello as I passed by, conducted my business inside, and then went to work. I didn't have much time to spare on them. Maybe one day I'll have the time and the mood will strike me and I will give them some food for thought.

Think for Yourself: Reform Judaism Uses JW Blood Issue For Shavuot
by David_Jay inas the jewish holy day of shavuot (pentecost) begins this weekend, the reform judaism site publishes an interesting article entitled "judaism teaches: question authority, think for yourself.".
the article employs a jewish doctor's recollection of a jw patient who refused blood and died as an example of how both religious traditions greatly differ on how they see and apply god's law.. shavuot is the day jews recall god's giving the law to israel.
the article is significant in that it demonstrates how jews see the giving of the law as a call to questioning authority, including divine revelation itself whereas the death of the jw patient is contrasted as a slavish interpretation that misses the point behind jewish scripture.. for more see the article at:.

Didn't much of the work by these volunteers have to be redone two or three times? And wasn't there a crane accident?

Watchtower has claimed be a Prophet when convenient and demands the authority of a Prophet, while at the same time claiming not be be an 'inspired prophet' when convenient, but 'spirit-directed'. It's like getting to have one's cake an eating it too.
"So, does Jehovah have a prophet to help them, to warn them of dangers and to declare things to come? .These questions can be answered in the affirmative. Who is this prophet? ... This "prophet" was not one man, but was a body of men and women. It was the small group of footstep followers of Jesus Christ, known at that time as International Bible Students. Today they are known as Jehovah's Christian witnesses."--Watchtower April 1, 1972

"Shunning" - now a Watchtower word?
by slimboyfat ini know jws have long used the word "shun" in a general sense, as in "shun what is bad".
but i think they have long avoided using the word in relation to disfellowshipping.
in external media or literature wherever the word "shunning" was used in a piece about jws it was usually a good indication it was critical of watchtower and not a neutral or supportive commentary.

I believe Watchtower PR people would say, "shunning is a myth". And that was echoed by an elder in court.

An outsider would quickly miss the fact that while it says the inactive are not shunned, it doesn't state the consequences of of the "choice" to disassociate.
Nor does it jive with what is being taught at the convention to shun inactive ones who violate Watchtower rules who the elders haven't gotten around to yet.

This is pure spin.
Harold Camping was called a false prophet for his failed predictions...why can't Watchtower be held to the same standards they hold other religions?
“RELIGIOUS LEADERS sometimes predict tragic worldwide events to warn mankind and gather followers. Doomsday prophet Harold Camping and his disciples widely advertised that the earth would be destroyed in 2011. Needless to say, the world is still here . . . Human predictions are often based on such factors as scientific research, analysis of available facts and trends, or even bogus spiritual insight.”--Watchtower, May 1, 2014.
