Blood transfusion and eating pork
by Sittingstraight1212 injust trying to gather info as a reasoning point to donate blood or get a transfusion.
why can witnesses have some blood parts, if they stuck to the belief of what the scrip says, never said anything about parts!??
and why can they eat pork, of it's health concern was that the pig is dirty.

Elders appointed by Holy Spirit, an error in logic
by VM44 inthe watchtower and the jws use the following reasoining to "prove" that elders are appointed by holy spirit.. 1) the bible was written under inspiration of the holy spirt.. 2) the bible requirements for and elder are followed when selecting and appointing elders.. 3) therefore, the elders are appointed by holy spirt.. thre is a logical flaw in this argument.. consider the following counter example.. suppose that a person obtains a book on medicine written by a doctor a, and that the person follows the instructions in the book concerning the writing a prescription.. 1) can the perscription that the person wrote be considered as having been written by doctor a?.
2) can the perscription that the person wrote even be considered as having been written under the direction of doctor a?.
the answer to both questions is "no.".

what would be the difference between holy spirit revelation vs. man's opinion in this particular situation?
