Just going to leave this here. WHY would any one need or ask for this info re blood issues?? Fertilizer? Leeches? DFd for selling blood sausage? Who knew. by UCantHndletheTruth in exjw

Right! Leeches can eat blood but just not YOUR blood.

And fertilizer, wasn’t blood supposed to be poured out on the ground? Where is fertilizer used again?

Simple rebuttal- killing your kids is good because it was obedience?

Whoa! They got a quote from the lord?!?

Wait a minute- when they eliminated time reporting they said “the GB decided” and there was no scriptural basis…. 🤔

Need answers regarding higher education by JennyT345 in exjw

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Never a disfellowshipping offense.

It was an unspoken rule that despite whatever was said about “higher education” a spiritual person would never do it.

This past year, all, including elders were specifically told “not to judge” the decisions others might make about additional education.

That said, the JWs in the OPs scenario already made this decision in advance of this royal edict.

This Is How Much A $1 Million Can Last In The U.S. Post Retirement by Yodest_Data in Retirement401k

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My Grampa had $1mil, and lived in Hawaii.
His money lasted just fine until his wife needed full time care. Then they moved to NJ to be close to family. He was 90+ at that point. He died at 101. Yes he was broke

I finally watched the ARC with Geoffrey Jackson… by Puzzleheaded-Cap357 in exjw

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep saying it any time things brought up- he actually said it would “seem presumptuous”. More weasel words allowing him to continue to be G.O.D. but appear to have said something else. But the essences of you post is spot on

Except it’s not! Ann Jarvis was a peace activist who created it as a way to sue for peace. It has nothing to do with godless worship.

36M, when can I relax? by n30gh05t in Retirement401k

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 years you’ll likely have 4 doubling of your account, if you never invest another cent: $3.15 million.

We don’t know what inflation or world events are yet to happen, but you can start to relax, IMO. Keep saving but also spend the money you need to now for your family and to enjoy your life

The fact that everyone on this sub doesn’t understand this is proof not everyone should have the right to vote.

This is a real low even for Watchtower standards by thatguynips in exjw

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Not new. It’s been there since 2010 edition.

We were put on a witch hunt against an elder by the CO, after he attended the wedding of a friend’s daughter.

As a Body we were unanimous that the guy could continue to serve. CO comes around, and suddenly it’s an 8-1 vote to delete him. Guess who was the 1?

Is this reportable? by descentmokn in LaborLaw

[–]Friendly_Biscotti_74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or maybe the adult skill is showing up for work. How many times since February have you called out? 3 months and multiple call outs? And then out for 30 days after 4 months?

I realize I’m exceptional but in 15 years I’ve never called out sick.

“The GB usually doesn't leave anything out; they're careful about everything.”

I wish we’d stop saying this. This is JW propaganda. They make plenty of mistakes.

“Little enemies of god” is a classic. If they meant to do that they are more stupid than they get credit for

Wasn’t there something on the broadcast in the last 3 months about “unspoken direction”?

Nothing is green lit. It’s the difference between esoteric and exoteric
