    They should be happy to know that the brothers are not reaching out. Why? It means this world is near it's end. Sign of the times. The change I've seen in the org since the early fifties makes one ????? what the hell is going on!

    Denim was bad in the Bethel Tour Brochure and by extension not good in other theocratic activities

    What ??

    I have heard this over the years, but never got a decent reply,
    is denim made by satanists, is it made from plants that grow in demon world, or does satan himself
    produce it ?

    what is the WT reasoning on THIS one

    stilla:

    DENIM is bad

    yep... I was talking with the CO on his last visit back in dec 06 ...my last meeting in that congo...and he and his wife told us at lunch that they are not allowed to wear denim jeans at any time...not even on their days off. They also are not allowed to go to the grocery store on a late night run in PJs, sweats, shorts, etc..... they are to look like "ministers" at all times....the reasoning being that they might be in the store and a local dub might see them looking less than desirable....lol

    I thought..."WTF?" I looked at him like he had a 3rd eye in the center of his forehead. Then I looked at his wife...she just looked at me, shrugged, and looked down at her plate...

    this was a younger couple (mid 40s)....and I know they used to like to wear shorts, jeans, etc.... I guess when they go on vacation is the only time they are out of the spotlight.

    if denim is now officially out...I know I aint going back...because I live in jeans and tshirts.... last time I wore a suit was .....Sept 23, 2007..my last meeting.... the next time will either be when I am dead (nah, I am getting cremated, no showing), going on a job interview (maybe)..or to my brother's wedding (assuming he ever proposes! )

    ya know a new rule should be in effect. We'll call it the "something about Mary rule." All brothers need to rub one out before leaving the house. That way their mind is sex free for at least a few hours. When they go to the hall, their mind won't think sexually when they see sisters. Bra straps and denim are safe

    Maybe it has traces of aluminum in it.

    The NINE ( yes nine 9 9 9 ) part symposium on the Fruitage of the Spirit (one part for each fruitage) was 90 minutes long and quite tedious
