this is from a witness yahoo email group

The other day a bible student who is married said she found out her husband is sending msn messages and email to women saying he want to have relationship with her, and indicates he is single. My student asked me if sexting or sending emails talking about sex grounds for a divorce in Jehovah's eyes.
I tried doing reseach on this but I can't seem to find information about sexting. Can anyone give me ideas what I can look up for her?

So, what do you think. Here is a person who is simply studying that is about to receive advice from this witness on divorce. Notice that the witness tried doing "research" but can't find info about sexting. How about "I'm sorry missy, but this is simply outside of anything to do with our bible study". Maybe since she can't find a scripture talking about sexting should be a clue that she has strayed into an area that is personal and not something she should get into.

To me, its about intent. If he stated he wanted to have sex with these women and was posting as a single man, well isn't that infidelity already?

Where do you draw the line for infidelity?

I agree, however, that that is something a study conductor should stay out of.

But of course she will believe the WTS has the answer to EVERYTHING . . . and has the trusted job of telling people how to live their lives right down to the tiniest detail. I doubt "not going there" has even crossed her mind.

She'll come up with something from somewhere or someone . . . and set about trashing another life.

Thanks for reading and the comments.

For my part I wasn't even going down the "ethics of the situation" aspect. It was more of the matter of It's not her deal, apologize to the young lady if she feels she must, but definitely tell her that it is out of her mandate in this situation.

I think about it a lot. How much "advice" I gave to bible studies that was NONE of my business!!

you need to get married, stop smoking, shave your beard, be more submisive to your husband....

If shave your beard and be more submissive to your husband were needed suggestions . . . . LOL

Because JW's value unity above all else, of course she MUST find out the approved JW rule on the matter of sexting.

JW's believe that people in God's One True Religion do things RIGHT. That is what makes them God's One True Religion.

JW's believe that ALLpeople in God's One True Religion do things RIGHT. So, all people in God's One True Religion must do things the same.

The RIGHT thing to do in the situation of a sexting spouse must be found in God's One True Religion's literature.

There is no other way to handle the situation. After all, if they don't look it up in the literature, how will they know what is RIGHT?

this is from a witness yahoo email group - It is just so telling
