How sad! Did the elders turn him in? I feel for his wife and kids. Pornography has been a problem amongst witness men long before the internet gave it a more private usage. My father has been a witness for over 50 years and in most of those years he fed his porn addiction through magazines and on to videos. He has recieved elder counseling from time to time, but was never removed for it. An alcohol addiction did not help as it lowers ones resolve to do better. Being a JW isn't the cure to everything, however, each and every person is responsible for his/her bad behavior and should not blame it on others. You do the crime you do the time. My sons are volunteer fire fighters and JWs. They have a friend in another state who is a JW in good standing and MS who is a fire fighter and EMT. He is well loved in his circuit by everyone including the elders.

I do feel that child pornography is in a different league than porn in general, much scarier.
On another point, there are many firefighters in this area that are elders and MS.

That's an understatement... I am glad you feel that way Blondie.
Porn is not Child Porn not even close. Many normal healthy people like to watch grown ups do it all the time. Please don't even compare the two.

Some 30 years ago I knew a witness in good standing who was a New York State Trooper. Don't know what the policy is now, but he seemed to make it work.
He had a daughter who was molested by an elder in the cong. That guy went to prison for a few years. Wifey waited for him to get out and they stayed together.
