List of changes in last 5 years

by paulmolark in

is there ea list anywhere of the changes that have taken place in last 5 years.

i ask this because in what i consider some form of "hail mary" my elder father who has not spoken to me in a forever tells me he knows that tone of my hangups was the fact that there were a lot of changes.

he said that as far as he knows that there have only been 2............................... i am aware of a number of them but is there a comprehensive list anywhere on the net?.

Or this....

Beliefs Clarified (JW.org)

I hate to link to their site, but they've got a pretty comprehensive list. You can fill in the blanks with JWFacts and the lists above.

Ha ha. You guys are great. Unfortunately, these are all DIYs, so I'm stuck practicing sleeping with my eyes open, inventing back stories for the interesting looking people (one lady looked like she got in a fight with her wardrobe, and the wardrobe won), and as sd-7 said, reading Bible books so I actually learn something.

One thing I just learned in Genesis is that God created light, day and night before he created the sun and moon. How bassackwards is that?

2000 people and we only had two baptized. This was a first. Usually we have ten or so.

Oh well, only a few more hours.

That's the size I need, now to smuggle it in. What the hell, after drinking that I'll either be dead or too drunk to care if anyone sees. Ha ha.

All cleverly disguised as a briefcase. They'll be none the wiser, and I'll keep my sanity.

This could lead to a lot of us outing ourselves if we don't play along. My wife knows that I don't support the blood doctrine, but no one else does. I haven't carried an AD card in over a year, and I'm not about to. If I'm in an accident, I don't want the doctor having to guess whether or not he can give me a specific treatment or not. I prefer to not have blood, but I would willing accept as a last resort. If I can consciously choose another alternative, I figure that I'm in good enough condition that it's not an emergency decision. If I'm unconscious and can't make that decision, I'd rather have the doctor make it for me instead of a JW elder. My reasons for choosing non-blood alternatives are purely because I don't like the thought of another person's blood in me and the slight risk of medical complications that are associated with transfusions. But then again, I'm the kind of person that views rest and relaxation as the preferred alternative treatment to Tylenol/Advil. I don't take medicine or medical treatments unless absolutely necessary.

Got invited to Sundays pep rally

by WasOnceBlind in

so my mom who sadly is still in the "truth" asked me if i was going to the circuit assembly this sunday.

she knows i don't go to meetings anymore but usually when she would mention the assemblies i would say yes and go pretty much just for her sake.

however, this time i couldn't bring my self to saying yes, i've been reading "crisis of conscience" and i just can't bring my self to go anymore, even if it's for my mother.

This was my first missed special talk......and it felt kind of special. I got invited to it too. My wife and I haven't been to too many meetings lately and we got a call from one of our elders inviting us. Just said thanks, lol. This was also the first meeting I've ever been invited too. It feels a little weird being on the other side of the equation. I'm glad I'm not the one doing the inviting anymore. I hate having put people through that.

Active JW's, can you defend "THE TRUTH?"

by DATA-DOG in

as of yet, no member of the jehovah's witness faith can defend their unique beliefs.

when the dust settles, it all comes down to blind faith in men's ever-changing ideas.

this "unique belief" was not a "true teaching of the bible.
