That was another one of their statements that I couldn`t accept while still in organ transplants ...cannibalism .
The other one was the 7 Trumpets in Revelation relating to the conventions starting in 1922 at Cedar Point ?

Don't forget to donate!
by neat blue dog inthe lucrative events otherwise known as assemblies and conventions are cancelled, which i'm sure has hit the wts in the pocketbook a little.
so the newest article on jwdotorg reminds us all yet again of the online recurring donation feature that takes credit and debit cards.. https://www.jw.org/en/news/jw/region/global/making-electronic-donations-in-view-of-covid-19-precautions/.

Do the Jehovah`s Witnesses /Governing Body members tell the rank and file members ,how much they have made dollar wise $$$$$$$ in the sale of all of their properties in New York alone ? In these past few years ?
I don`t think so .
And what about all of the sales of K H`s ,Assembly Halls ,and Branch Office`s around the world in these past few years ?
I don`t think so .
So much for being up front about what they are doing . or being open about it ?

JW patient with covid-19 received blood transfusion
by adjusted knowledge ini had a patient admitted from a skilled nursing facility/rehab that is an active jw.
the patient had covid-19 as did most of the patients at that facility.
typically the local elders are all involved in these admissions but there is a strict no visitor policy which includes clergy.

a. K ,You are right sometimes we are too quick to answer a question before we really take note of what the question really is all about.
I have seen it a few times myself.Hopefully I haven`t been guilty of it.
His blood transfusion wasn't to treat COVID-19 it was to treat his anemia.

Who is considered more bizarre?
by incognito2014 injws or mormons.
from a public point of view not from people within the religion as that would be obvious.. examples of extreme beliefs or behaviour would be useful..

The tragedy is when Witnesses reach retirement age totally unprepared. They have been told there is no need (and are criticized if they DO prepare). They are led to believe Armageddon will come in time to save them and they should be in their ministry and not bother their pretty heads about annoying things like earning a living.
And they end up living in Aged Care facilities run by Institutions of Christendom whom they have lambasted their entire life as the Anti-Christ .
Because the JW Religion does not in any way or form look after the aged volunteers that have given their life in serving for the WT religion .
They in effect say the Govt. or Christendoms Religions will take care of you we have better things to do than look after the elderly who have spent most of their life slaving for us.
After all they are only volunteers ,it was their choice to volunteer,nobody made them do it.
And to answer the OP question ,the Mormons ,however the JW`s are the most damaging.

What you have stated does not prove anything of the sort .

Could they rationalize that as not being whole blood, but a fraction of blood , so its OK to take it ?

EVERY Religion has Hypocrites- even the TRUE One!
by MuchCloserLook inso, if you expect to find 'saints' with halos, you will never find real christians.. after over 30 years of being a jw, there are many things about the org that disturb me- yet no one else even acknowledges the only true god, as jesus referred to him.. not a 'they' or 'them' ('trinity')- but him!and he has always had the name jehovah (yehovah in hebrew)- even though the koine greek had no version of it when the nt was written.. so among the many things real christians have to endure- is often each other!

MCL ,Do you believe "all scripture is inspired of God and beneficial teaching,for reproving,for setting things straight,for disciplining in righteousness " 2 Tim.3:16
I presume you do, then why haven`t the Bible writers ,Apostles ,Disciples ,not to forget Jesus Christ himself ever uttered the name / word Jehovah / Yehovah under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit in recording the Christian Greek Scriptures .?
Where as over 20 times in the C.G.S. written under Holy Spirit the writers admonish Christians / followers of Jesus Christ to be witnesses of him and not Jehovah.
Phil.2:10 "in the name of Jesus every knee should bend" as in worship and not to Jehovah. "and God gave him a name that is above every other name " including that name of Jehovah.
These are God`s words written down by men under the direction of Holy Spirit .
"Aid To Bible Understanding" Acknowledges Yahweh is probably the more correct pronunciation of Gods name .
And that they chose Jehovah because it was the most popular name in use.

Can someone tell me what the WT/JW definition of "Soon" is ? also the definition of "Imminent " is ?
"Just around the corner" maybe a little harder ? and what about the latest ? "the last of the last days "?

I attend Catholic services occasionally, and have gotten involved in several of their volunteer endeavors such as helping children dealing with problems, assisting elderly ones , and by experiencing the results from these opportunities I'm learning to develop my own personal relationship with God.
Good for you ,you have a caring attitude ,you care for people.
Many of these religions Catholic and protestant have programs that assist and help those less fortunate for one reason or another ,and even if it is a fault of their own bad choices they will still give a helping hand for these ones to help them .
NOT JEHOVAH`S WITNESSES , they are so Judgemental and uncarring for their fellow humans.
All they want is the destruction of 8+ billion people so they can sit under a grapevine and pet pandas.
