This post is totally misleading. You take a decision to be baptised as a Jehovah's witness through water baptism by yourself no body ever force anyone to be. Even parents dont make that choice for their children. If you decided to abandon the truth which the organisation is after baptism, you will be excommunicated by your family member and fellow witnesses. You are deem fit to mix wit other people but witnesses hold on strongly to the bible quote, that whoever abandon the truth is worse than and unbeliever and you should not associate with such. Because he willingly abandon the truth.
On issue of blood the bible admonishes us to abstain from blood, because it is life itself.

Also, most of they so called Awake magazines usually in fact 80% of the articles criticize the Catholic Church and they tell lies and black mail the church by twisting the history of most of the doctrines of the Catholic Church, a church which existed decades before their own, which to me is totally bad, it's the more reason I don't even listen to them when they come to preach to me, I just bring out my rosary when they see it they flee.

They don't blindly criticize the Catholic Church. Most, if not all, of their articles about the Catholic Church are actually true.
The Catholic Church of today is way different from that of centuries back. I

Like I said earlier the Catholic Church of before is way the different frim the one of today.
I'm talking about a church that was influenced by pagan rituals and beliefs,a church that waged military conflicts against non catholics, a church that instigated the inquisition, imprisoned or killed "heretics" and "witches".
Denying the crimes of the Catholic Church makes you just another biased Catholic.

Truth is based on your believes and what you choose to say it is. He may have been baptised based on what he learnt then and believed. However, if he later finds them to be wrong, he has the right to leave that truth. That idea of organisation is truth no longer applies to him. You can no longer apply the idea of truth to him. He left because it wasn't truth to him.

So you cannot stop him from his family because you believe what he doesn't.

And by the way, the Bible only said Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. It didn't say that the organisation is the truth.

JWs almost turned me to atheist, after brainwatching bible students into believing other religions are apostates, you now agree to be a witness only to find out their shaky and dark foundation built on lies and 1914. You begin to wonder if any religion truely worship God, at this point any religious talk is a turn-off ------welcome to atheism.

My main grouse with Jehovah's witnesses is this blood transfusion issue..I work with patients that have Chronic Kidney Disease and they usually require blood transfusion due to the nature of the disease.
When a new patient comes and I see the person is a JW,I know his/her time on this earth is not long again.I've seen at least 5 patients die due to refusal to take blood. Last one was one fine 23 yr lady. Both she and her husband adamantly refused blood. She died on the dialysis machine.
The only one that I know survived was because the husband loved her more than their religion. She was unconscious on the machine,we told him her only saving grace was blood. He thought long and hard and agreed. He however said we shouldn't put the blood transfusion sticker in her case note and throughout the process,no family member came to see her on the machine.
Till today,even the woman does not know she had blood..thinks her faith made her whole.

So touching.

If I was the husband to the girl, I would have told her let me see if she would commit suicide. Non.sense sheeples.

This is why I hate religious doctrines, it brainwashes the mind to the extent that the person lacks total rational thinking.

JW... turned a friend of mine into a zombie. She was my gf until one JW in the guise of door to door visit snatched her and married smiley.. for fun I'd send her birthday, Easter and Christmas greetings. Come to think of it, we grew up reading My book of bible stories which was a JW publication so I guess they aren't that bad after all but I still don't like them

Not a JW..... but the Bible does not support blood transfusion.... blood is life..... the same why the blood of animals should be drained before eating the meat. I guess it's OK to store your own blood and reuse in a transfusion....but not the blood of another person. What I don't understand with JWs is they are against blood transfusion but support organ transplant..... when organ transplant cannot take place without blood transfusion.
@topic.... Russia is a secular state.... like China... so forget about religion/organisation... no difference. I guess if the JWs met at their place of worship... no problem.... but fanning out and going from door to door... peeking in people's homes.... nooooo..... more like a spy network.... that's not happening!
