So..... If this 8 year old happens to be blessed with a penis, if theres no other baptised male around he'll automaticlly get the privilege of leading the group out in the field which would include saying the prayer....right? Perhaps, if he's being chstised by his mom for something, he could pull the "spiritual head" card to shut her down. The different permutations of this are infinite.

He wouldn't in one of the halls I attended. A new 19 year-old MS conducted the meeting for FS and when he tried to put an oldr sister in with a group that she didn't like she bowed up on him. When he insisted, she said, "Listen Junior, I don't give a damn how much holy spirit you think got you appointed you were still shi**ing yellow when I had been pioneering for over 20 years. Don't you ever forget it, either." She put herself in the car group she wanted in. I just looked and chuckled under my breath.

A child about eight y/o got dunked this Circuit convention and that was it!
Your circuit must have gone down in numbers then, children growing up and leaving
the BORG, disfellowshipped or disassociated ones, deaths, faders. OUTSTANDING NEWS. -

At the 2 day thingy my roommate went to a few weeks ago, a 10 yr old got dunked. I asked her if she thought it was okay for someone so young to be baptised into the JW's. She said she thought it was as long as they had been in the truth all their life...that they should know what they are getting into. But she thought a 6 yr old would be too young.

The Society is led by heartless criminals. This shows their true colors about child abuse
by now making an 8 year old child subject to disfellowshipping - likely before he even
reaches puberty. Will he masturbate his way out of the truth by age 12?
These sick Pharisees really are seared in their consciences.

It has been more and more common on here to have posts of assemblies where just a couple or even NO people are baptized. That was unheard of in all the years I was a JW.

Wow. I was dunked like a little tea bag at 11. I had no idea of WTF was going on. This was before the days when there were baptismal candidate studies leading up to thehuman sacrificebaptism. How in the H does an eight year old decide to dedicate his life tothe WTSJay Hoover? -

Not surprising since they themselves admit zero growth in the usa, once they were blessed by jehovah with a lot of growth what happened now? It's such a shame to baptise children in a religion that practices shunning. That child doesn't really know whether it will keep to the dub dictates or disagree and be expelled, in the future when such issues may arise.
