Murmurings in my congregation
by stichione ini just had a startling conversation with a brother in my congregation at today's meeting.
he asked me if i had read the two study articles of the june 15th 2004 watchtower magazine on blood transfusions, particularly the banned and not-banned blood products.
he told me he found it absolutely idiotic the way the argumentation for banning some blood products and not others was presented.

HELP! How do you answer the Elders without incriminating yourself?
by stichione ini?m due soon for a shepherding call from my congregation elders for a variety of reasons: being irregular in service, s poradically attending meetings, and o h yes, writing in a letter to the society asking for clarifications on the blood ban.

JW references in movies
by stichione ini watched the movie "mickey blue eyes" last night on tv, staring hugh grant.
at one point there is a knock at the door and mickey, looking through the peep hole, anounces "its the jehovah bloody witnesses".
there was more insitent knocking and the female occupant replies "they must be really devoted!".

Watchtower Society's respect for Christ
by stichione inin the december 15th 2002 watchtower magazine we find the article "view matters from god's standpoint", relating to the 113th graduating class of gilead.
on page 24 is presented a statement which gerrit losch, a member of the governing body made during a talk at that graduation: "...he called attention to many occasions when jehovah said to his servants :i am with you.".
however, jesus christ is conspicuously absent, since his words which close the gospel of matthew are pratically identical, when he said :" i am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.
