Dr. Denton Cooley, famed Houston heart surgeon, dead at 96
by darkspilver inthe news of dr denton cooley's death is hitting the newspaper obituary columns around the world (friday 18 and saturday 19 november 2016).
he was quoted a fair bit by wt, particularly during the 1970's, with reference to not using blood on jw patients, for example:.
jehovah’s witnesses and the question of blood (1977), pages 55 to 56. courageous doctors who have agreed to operate on jehovah’s witnesses without using blood have often found the experience revealing.

Get out of her MY people
by kairos inwhen we were in, it was 'the truth'.after being out and free to think and research as i please, what a disappointment to find out that this org is nothing but a publishing house of lies.they literally are in the business ( corporation ) of selling lies.don't believe me?review the publication that you 'studied the bible in' and discover for yourself that the very doctrine that attracted you, no longer exists.it was the "live forever" book for me.the generation that saw the events of 1914 has died and now after a few tweaks the massive lie of "overlapping generations" has been promoted as "truth".this takes us to galatians 1:8,9.read it carefully and repeatedly.
in multiple translations.however, even if we or an angel out of heaven were to declare to you as good news something beyond what we declared to you as good news, let him be accursed.
9 as we have said above, i also now say again, whoever it is that is declaring to you as good news something beyond what you accepted, let him be accursed.. you cannot change the doctrines.
