- 1.3k views
Summary Between January 1971 and January 1985, 31 Jehovah's witnesses underwent 24 bypass and 12 non‐bypass cardiothoracic operations at the National Heart Hospital. Fifty‐eight% of the group were under 16 years of age. There was one death in the non‐bypass group unrelated to blood loss. Six deaths occurred in the bypass group. In one of these, blood loss contributed to the cause of death and in two patients. blood loss was directly related to the cause of death. The anaesthetic management of Jehovah's witnesses undergoing cardiac surgery is discussed. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/j.1365-2044.1986.tb12846.x

By Raanan Geberer Brooklyn Daily Eagle Matt Damon, Luciana Barroso and their four children have reportedly moved into the penthouse at The Standish, an exclusive Brooklyn Heights building that has made its mark in theater and the comics. A Columbia Heights resident who witnessed “many truckloads of stuff being moved in” to the building asked a “nosey neighbor” who told him that the famed actor had moved in, according to Brownstoner. The Standish at 171 Columbia Heights was built in 1903. It was originally a hotel known as the Standish Arms and served as the fictional residence of Clark Kent in “Superman” as well as the place where Willy Loman had an…

That quote came at the end of paragraph 4 of this weeks Watchtower study and the subject of having a pleasant smile and kind demeanour was mentioned at least 3 or 4 more times during the watchtower, particularly about when engaging in cart witnessing. Remember, we’re a happy people, because they tell us we are. via GIPHY

NEW UNDERSTANDING, THAT ALMOST HAPPENS INADVERTED..... At the last meeting of the Watchtower, we were considering the article "Jehovah loves those who" bear fruit with endurance " In this article a new understanding on the part of the slave was opened to our mind. Paragraph 9 specifically says: "What is the fruit that we must produce?" Without a doubt, it must be something that we can all carry out, and what work has Jehovah commanded us all his servants? The preaching of the message of the Kingdom. Not many brothers and sisters captured this new understanding since they even came to quote me at the end of the meeting, an appointment that was made precisely the pr…

In paragraph 9 of this weeks Watchtower it was talking about how children’s comments at the meetings can prompt newly interested ones to recognise the ring of truth. I donÂ’t recall ever hearing it referred to as the ring of truth before. Is this a new phrase theyÂ’re going to try and get everybody using along the lines of, the truth, the brotherhood, this wicked system of things, etc etc. Â

I got banned at the apostate website! Can you believe it? I was the very personification of respect and good-manners. Of course, I was also the very personification of tenacity, but it was still me against a dozen others. Now that I have been muzzled, it may be me against 100. Cedars worked so hard to get me to engage and as soon as I did, he tossed me out! Actually, he wanted me to engage on his podcast, where you shoot from the hip. Again and again, he invited me there. I thought a forum in which you can think out your remarks beforehand was better. I put a human face on an outfit he is trying very hard to demonize, and I think that finally pushed him to his limit.…

I'll tell you what bothers me just as much: our cong has somehow developed the awesome habit of clapping after every single video. 1 minute presentation video? Clapping. Video asking for more donations? Clapping. 1 hour video of Lett making faces? Clapping. Drives me up the freaking wall. I think JW's are becoming the "clapping cult"

Posted by Michael David Smith on September 1, 2018, 7:31 AM EDT AP Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid were cheered by the crowd at the U.S. Open on Friday night, and afterwards they were applauded by the winner of the nightÂ’s match, Serena Williams. Williams, who defeated her older sister Venus Williams, said after the match that she admires the stance Kaepernick and Reid have taken on racial justice. “I think every athlete, every human, and definitely every African American should be completely grateful and honored how Colin and Eric are doing so much more for the greater good, so to say,” Williams said. “They really use their …

Over 2,500 Jehovah's Witnesses members gathered for their annual convention in Flatbush this weekend. The theme of the 2018 convention is courage, whether that be in relationships, difficult decisions and in the Bible. Organizers say as traditional religions worldwide have faced dwindling numbers, Jehovah's Witnesses have attracted around 3,000 new members per year in the U.S. Organizer Henry Wilson says he thinks the growing numbers are thanks to the group's focus on applying the bible to their own lives. The convention is a free event where topics ranging from marriage, elderly care and being a student of the Bible will be covered. http://brookl…

Few things cause more distress in the world of celebrities than a neglected birthday celebration. Yet Serena Williams presented them exactly that scenario with regard to her baby daughter, soon to turn one. “Serena and husband Alexis Ohanian wonÂ’t be throwing an over-the-top birthday bash for their baby girlÂ…In fact, they wonÂ’t be throwing a party at all,” reported Caitlyn Hitt for the DailyMail. Why? Serena says: ‘WeÂ’re JehovahÂ’s Witnesses, so we donÂ’t do that.Â’ She repeats the tactic that she took with President Obama, [Let it stay, Miss Librarian, you old hen. It does no harm to you. It may even help you, for I have disabled my comment section. If anyone…

Interesting. The God of the Bible says in his inspired Word to NOT trust humans. And than through SELF-ADMITTED Uninspired men God tells you to Trust in Men. Anyone dizzy yet?

JW Belief is first, the Bibilcal position is in bold Christ is God's Son and is inferior to him. Christ is God. He took on the form of man to come to earth. John 1:1, 1 Timothy 3:16 Christ died on a stake, not a cross. Christ died on a cross. John 20:25, Matthew 27:37, 27 Christ's human life was paid as a ransom for obedient humans. Christ life was paid as a ransom for sinners Matthew 9:13, 1 Timothy 1:15 Earth will never be destroyed or depopulated. God will create new heavens and earth and new physical laws. God's people will be removed from earth. Matthew 24:31, Mark 13:27, 1 Thess. 4:16-17 The human soul ceases to exist at death The spir…

Usage example in the: If you're a woman it's one and done. He's your mate because you are his property now and have no other options. You're used and unclean and don't deserve a happy abuse-free life because someone claimed your vagina. If he leaves you, you're better off dead so that your children stay legitimate and you're not tempted to mate with someone else. Spouse is too gender neutral. We don't want married gay people to think this applies to them. Mate indicates a male and female who can produce offspring. The whole point of the article is to talk down to women and convince them to stay with violent terrible men. If they used language like spouse…
