But don't JW also have to address the fact of the changing beliefs and failed predictions that have existed and are the basis of their religion?
And by eccentric I was thinking of some of the aspects such as opposition to transfusions that emerged out if nowhere.
In the NT it says---Abstain from blood--- That's all blood. Blood is sacred to God its why he required it for sacrifice. As well in the OT it clearly teaches--the soul is in the blood--So do you get anothers soul if you take their blood?
Many have disobeyed Gods rule and contracted-Aids,Hep c and all sorts of various diseases and died anyways.
In the Ot it spoke of not eating it. They didn't know how to do blood transfusion back then. In the NT days they do. ABSTAIN FROM BLOOD.
If not abused probably were much better. Poisions are NEVER any good. Many claim its the Chemo that kills one-not the cancer.( paying to be poisioned when you are already sick in a way.)- There are other ways.
Right. Until the 1970's cigarettes were ok. If not abused.
Even animals have souls in the Bible - there are many verses that show that animals also are literal souls as well.
So then should Jehovah Witnesses be vegetarians ?
The Bible indicates clearly that Animals Do Have Souls.
And the Protestant and Catholic translators shifted back and forth between words like heart, body, mind, will, desire, pleasure, appetite, ghost, dead, mortally, any, lives, one, yourselves, one, any, thing, beast, man, persons, me, she, he, them, man, any, yourselves, thyself - but when they used all of these other words - they are all the same exact Hebrew word for “ SOUL “And the Hebrew word SOUL - נֶפֶשׁ - nephesh is used 753 times in the Old Testament. " although mostly as soul "

Wow.
God created tobacco--Mortals added poisions to it ruining it for mortals. But great for their bank accounts. In every state in the union if you poision another and they die you are a murderer, same applies to the cig makers in reality--they are murderers. They are selling cancer and heart disease because of added poisions.

The bible says of the fish and animals--They became a living soul. They were not given a soul as some believe. The Jw,s are correct on the matter. The breath of life makes one a living soul. They do not have a soul being inside of themselves.
lol...keep banging that drum. Maybe someone will believe you eventually. It's a shame you have chosen to ignore orthodoxy.
I believed Jesus over orthodoxy lies that is why I didn't become one of them. The teachings of Jesus are contradicted by those teachers 7 days a week. They failed to listen to Jesus' warning--John 15:20-21
