    They don't like the online dating because the elders cannot put their nose in the middle of it and scrutinize everything.

    At the DC, their main points for not dating online was that you just don't know for sure if the person is really a JW in good standing... hence... put their nose in the middle of it and scrutinize everything.

    CONTROL... the internet interferes with the WTS's ability to control the people, therefore they say that the internet is evil.

    Talk of the town look what I found !

    Witnesses and the SINGLES GAME Flowers And Hearts

    How to connect with dysfunctional creeps like yourself.[the Jeffery Damher,Teddy Bundy types, or how about,Charlie Manson without the look?}

    Well.I suppose this beats old fashioned 'trolling' at the district conventions.I always thought 'assembly trolling' was so humiliating.I mean for the sisters,I would feel real empathy for the sweethearts.I am still unmarried at 47 y.o. because I was a crippled child into adulthood with severe brutal ulcerative colitis.I became stricken 5 years before the new system of 1975.From 1970-1998 I lived daily knowing my bowel could burst.( instant death/no blood transfusions).Or, i could have a 'total proctocolectomy' with colostomy bag.

    Hey,check out what I've found on the web.Is it linked to a geriatric diaper service? Because you and your JW mate WILL grow old and die together,just like everybody else.

    `Creep Show sequel;: 09/08/2003 PRIVATE SECTOR COMPANY PROVIDES MARRIAGE INTRODUCTIONS EXCLUSIVELY FOR JEHOVAH'S WITNESS MEMBERS AND ASSISTS THEM IN KEEPING THE FAITH. Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) September 8, 2003

    According to Dr. Andres Madrigal,who lent his expertise as a psychologist and behavioral scientist to this project; The desire to """retain spiritual correctness""" and Religious conviction has prevented many Jehovah's Witnesses, from choosing marriage partners outside their Faith.

    There also exists the assignment of responsibility for both parents to bring up children who are educated in the teachings of the Bible, and this paticular Religion.( it's called,'spiritual incest' ) By and large,the Kingdom Hall Congregations; no matter where they are geographically located, are """close knit communities where members are willingly responsible for one another""".( ahhh, s**t, my daughter ran off with a 'worldly' guy) In today's world, this level of concern is quite unusal.[Yea man it's a no brainer.It's called a high demand/control cult.]

    Additionally, there are many other beliefs and factors which have set the Witnesses, apart from main stream society. Holidays are not celebrated and birthdays arrive without cake or presents. But apparently they, would have it no other way. In the belief that many worldly things are distractions with questionable sources; they are """not missed""". Dr. Madrigal, has observed that these and other ""acceptable disciplines"" serve to temper and assist in processing beneficial choices inclusive of moral behavior and sound judgement.

    Consequently, the marriage introduction services available through Partners In The Truth, are formulated with these same positive moral considerations and further complement the beliefs maintained by the Jehovah's Witnesses, concerning the vows of matrimony.( warning! once you tie the knot you're screwed for life,no safe exit out) Formerly, unless a suitable marriage partner could be found within one's own congregation or an introduction made through a friend from another Kingdom Hall, remaining single was the only available choice.( masturbation) A Compatibility Profile Form can be obtained from the website: partnersinthetruth.com or call their Message Center Tel. 202-298-1455 company: Partners In The Truth contact person: Vito Vitoes phone: 202-298-1455 site: partnersinthetruth.com.

    WOW! What an awesome door to door sermon the above would make..

    Unfortunately, for many brothers and sisters asking the elders in the congregation that their possible intended goes to isn't much help either. Elders have hedged and lied about certain people rather than admit some glaring flaws. The sisters/brothers go ahead and marry someone only to find out that they are impotent, spendthrifts, wifebeaters, lazy, etc.

    So much for their "spiritual" counsel!

    Here's an email I sent to partnersinthetruth.com before they changed this problem:

    Hello. I found the following two statements on your website:

    "In many instances they have remained single, unable to begin a family because they did not choose to create a union with a person of the world; and outside their faith."

    "We do not discriminate for reasons of race, national origin, or religion. "

    Aren't these two statements contradictory? Isn't this false advertisement?

    Proplog, the Society would NEVER suggest their own dating service because they might somehow get sued.

    they have been against internet meeting for a long time..

    I was personally counseled about an internet personals when I was a JW.. got the old "you don't know if they are really a witness" talk.. about how 'worldly' men like to seek out JWs because they know they are chaste and less chance of picking up a disease.. etc etc etc..

    I am surprised they didn't tell me that an apostate might contact me and take me away from the WTS...

    (I sure wish one had back then!!)
