  4 months of preparing to give the 2017 Memorial Talk. Through all the bible only research I discovered a very different Jesus than I was raised to know. Strike one.

  Covering over child sex abuse due to not having 2 witnesses. Strike two.
  

  Overlapping Generations. Strike three, I'm out.

  Donating Blood a Disfellowshipping Offense?

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when i served as an elder i never heard of this scenario presenting itself - giving blood.. has anyone heard of a judicial case where a person donated and was disfellowshipped?

  are there any references to this in the jw publications, manuals, handbooks?.

  not so hiddenpimo :-).

  Giving blood for medical reasons (blood testing, dna testing, allergy testing, glucose monitor testing, high iron counts, ect....) is a non issue within the JW cong.

  Thou shalt not waste ones semen on the ground either but its necessary to test for a successful vasectomy. + 97.3% of JW males wank it regularly and 97.1% of the 97.3% of them do so without repercussion.

  Just sayin...

  I don't care either way because all the politicking just doesn't matter.

  That said, Trump will be be president for 4 more years.

  A different slant on the Montana Verdict Reversal

  by HiddenPimo in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i was thinking how the jw's are no doubt going to point to this as a show of jehovah's hand in the matter.. however i think it may also have a negative impact and lead others to learn the truth about the truth.. this ruling does nothing to remove the fact that child abusers were among 'god's people' and the elders did nothing to protect the flock.

  regardless of the fine, i think any publicity is good publicity for helping others wake up.

  that's just my 2 cents.... and i could be totally wrong as well, but that is what this board is for right :-).

  I'm not a betting man but if I were I'd bet that:

  There have been countless meetings at Warwick to decide wether or not to capitalize on the verdict and the decision is NOT to post it to the breaking news or anywhere on JW.org. They know they would look like D-bags either way.

  Unless of course the WT Spin Team pulls something pretty amazing out of the hat.

  have you ever reinstate somebody even if they are not that repentant?.

  My old standby was to ask, "if you had it to do all over again, what would you do differently." Their answer usually sealed the deal one way or the other for me. As a young elder though I was more into the dog and pony show combined with if i liked them or not to produce the decision.

  There is no HQ provision for this and the times it has happened without BOE repercussions could probably be counted on zero fingers.
