It would be nice to see the article - QFR and WTS reply (to these fake "questions").

I'm with zombie dub on this. It seems they think that every time two people of the opposite sex are together alone, sex is suddenly going to happen.

One time I (married) was alone with a sister (also married) in field service because the other car group simply didn't show up in the territory. After some door-to-door, we went for coffee, and other jws were there. Later I received a call from a fellow elder who warned me of the "danger" of being alone with the sister.

Now really, what was going to happen? Were this woman and I going to suddenly go find a hotel room and hop into bed? Was one morning spent in field service going to lead to us forming some inappropriate emotional connection?

Bonnie_Clyde

JW's aren't the only religion. Clyde and I were visited by two missionary Mormon boys for several weeks. They would usually sit on the front porch (summertime), chit chat a little and share some scripturees. Occasionally I would join them. One day one of the boys asked to use our bathroom. So I opened the door, offered to lead him through the house to the bathroom, but he stopped and asked Clyde if he wouldn't do it instead because it was inappropriate for him to be in the house alone with a woman. I had a hard time not laughing. I was close to three times as old as he was. Did he really think I was going to jump him? I can't even imagine the witnesses being that anal.

They are OBSESSED with sex.

They will try to enforce rules that they make up, always.

creativhoney

They dont account for gay people. same as in victorian times. its easier just to pretend its impossible for that one to exist. -two pioneer bros, spending all their time together. living in same house maybe. they could be having a jolly good time. and no one says they have to have a chaperone..

Open mind

Talk about spiritual food at the proper time!

We're in the worst economic slump since the Great Depression; people might have to start sharing living quarters; and the F&DS decides you can't be trusted to keep it zipped up.

Thanks GB.

Again - what they think others must be doing (fooling around) is nothing more than a reflection of what *they* would do given the chance.

And...does anyone think QFR ever were from Readers? I think I lost that illusion when I first learned to read...

Billy the Ex-Bethelite

Why don't they just neuter everydubby right after baptism? Besides all the spiritual risks of porneia and masturbation, scripturally married couples are tempting Jehovah's wrath when they cross the line into inappropriate oral or anal activities. And the time wasted intercoursing would be much better spent on personal study and field service.

WTWizard

You would expect this s*** from the Muslims--but a Christian denomination so obsessed with two people of the opposite sex automatically going to do fornication? I have never had that happen to me, even while I was in college--yet they do not want me to have a chance to be with the opposite sex. And they wonder why I am doing all I can to undermine Jehovah's Unholy Spirit!

Yet, what would happen if you have someone who is gay, or potentially gay or bisexual? I suppose two men can't become sexually attracted to each other if they are always together, or that a gay man can't have sex with other men if left alone for two seconds. Or, someone that is inclined to bestiality could have sex with a dog or horse if left alone with one for two seconds. They only allow pedophiles to be alone with children--that they have no problem with (true pedophiles, threats and all, only need apply).

Good post WTWizard, the bORG is constantly making it sound like every man and woman left in a space by themselves will start humping sooner or later. And some good questions.

Probably not a good idea for some to stay home alone for any length of time with a vaccum cleaner.
