Date: XX Aug 2004 22:17
Subject: NO NEED !!!
Message:
XXXX, you would be less than 10 with your mental attitude.
I DO NOT need mental help at all, I am mentally sound.
Do not be rude, again.
â??NO NEED FOR HELPâ?
No need to rush.
---
You should not have rudely sent a slanderous message to me.
Unrepentantly slandering others can lead to disfellowshipping.
I have the ?power" to disfellowship anyone who unrepentantly slanders others.
The faithful slave class says that it is immature and childish to look down on others.
It is unchristian to be taking the initiative to be outright rude.
Therefore you must personally and humbly and sincerely apologise to me for sending me an outright slanderous message.
And if you, unrepentantly donâ??t apologise or unrepentantly sends me again rude and slanderous message[s], then you should know that you should be disfellowshipped for unrepentant slander.
If you are a Christian, then you should learn to always sincerely respect others, even if they have different viewpoints.
Sorry if I sounded not too polite [see, I demonstrated just now to you, how to humbly and sincerely apologise, and you should do the same to me].
LMAO can you belive him lmao lmao lmao.....thats so frekaing funny man lololololololololololololol........what do you think i should write back to him.....come on your good with words n all that......what should i write back to him lmao lmao lmao
1. What do you think of this guys' profile?

"Women are not a mail order catalog." Is what I would say to his profile.

The more I read that guy's post the more I think it is a gag posted by an exJW to show just how ridiculous the WT standards are.
General Information I am someone who wants to dress modestly. I think I am shy
by nature since childhood, but can be outgoing and
courageous at times. I spend quite a lot of time in the
ministry. Generally speaking I am interested in interesting
machines since childhood, and to do something with
it. ---- My friends might say that I dress especially at
the meetings always modest; try possibly at times to talk to
younger boys like did Jesus; and also like Jesus to try to
treat genuinely sincerely those [especially male brothers]
that are disadvantaged, handicapped, suffering chronic
illness, shy by nature and therefore may unfortunately might
not have any friends or companions, and try to be like a
friend to them.Jehovah and His Organization I credit Jehovah God for revealing the truth in this modern
era that we were informed of the existence of false
religion so that we can avoid it, and the fact that true
worship was restored in our time, so that we through His
organization were able to come to an accurate knowledge of
the Kingdom message which will affect everyone's life in the
future. In the congregation I help around in some
duties. My current aim might be to endure the best way I
can till the end, hopefully with the aid of Jehovah God and
His organization.Looking for I need someone great in my life, who prefers me over
everybody else, therefore proving genuine love for me, who
takes an initiative to approach me, even chases me when
necessary, who takes an initiative to try to talk to me, and
calls my name, invites me to share in an activity, smiles at
me, stares at me, and possibly even touches me later when
the time is right and if appropriate, who has very strong
faithful love towards me, which should last forever and who
wants to form a legal friendship [marriage] with me. ---
Sorry for sounding like a selfish, childish, fantasy
dreamworld, but it is important that the sister has high
enough level of modesty, and always dress modestly, and I
prefer that she wears light colored clothes than dark ones,
where possible. I also prefer that she be all-natural from
top to bottom, which means [sorry if this sounds offensive]
that I prefer all-natural hair color than artificial hair
color[hair color preference:- all-natural:- 1/ blonde 2/
brown 3/ black 4/ red(although not quite sure about the
order of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.)]; I prefer that she does not
wear earrings, no unnecessary rings on fingers, no
jewelleries, no bracelets, no necklaces, no g l a s s e s,
no contact lenses, no s u n g l a s s e s if possible, no
makeup, no artificial enhancements to the face and body, no
cosmetic surgeries, no artificial methods of increasing or
decreasing one or more of her measurements, no heeled
shoes[flat-soled shoes OK], because I believe in all-natural
beauty[I don't like what I think to be fake or being
"deceived" by appearances], and also I think if someone is
naturally beautiful then she does not need to enhance
herself, since I feel natural appearance looks better than
artificial appearance. [Regards g l a s s e s or contact
lenses:- (note:- I did not say that they are forbidden; it
is just that because I am not already currently dependent on
g l a s s s e s or contact lenses, it might be ok for me to
prefer someone in the same position {however I might be able
to accept someone who is not already currently dependent on
g l a s s s e s or contact lenses, but may be in the future
due to unforeseen occurrences might need to use them
(although if it is dead necessary, I still prefer for her to
use g l a s s s e s over contact lenses, because then it
would be obvious that she is using some kind of optical a s
s i s t a n c e)}]. --- [Regards makeup, jewelry, etc.
:- Watchtower 1991 June First:- Questions From Readers;
states on p. 31, Thirteenth paragraph under the heading:- Is
it fitting for a Christian woman to use jewelry or makeup,
dye her hair, or follow similar practices?:- -- some
women use little or no makeup or jewelry --] ---
[Regards heels, etc. :- Awake 1999 August Eighth:-
Watching the World; states partly on p.29, under the
heading:- Health Problems Linked to Shoes:- -- "high
heels often lead to many of the most serious foot
deformities." The paper adds: "It's also important to
remember that pain occurs after damage has already been
done." --] --- [Regards modesty, etc. :- 1 Timothy
2:9, 10 states:- -- 9 Likewise I desire the women to
adorn themselves in well-arranged dress, with modesty and
soundness of mind, not with styles of hair braiding and gold
or pearls or very expensive garb, 10 but in the way that
befits women professing to reverence God, namely, through
good works. --] ----- My eye color preference:-
all-natural:- 1/ blue[preferably deep ocean blue]; 2/ green?
3/ grey? 4/ hazel? 5/ brown 6/ black. Body type
preference:- all-natural:- 1/ hour-g l a s s figure[not too
wide bodied(like a drum barrel(sorry for the description))]
2/ slender?[mini hour-g l a s s]. Skin color preference:-
all-natural:- 1/ yellow 2/ white? 3/ pink? 4/ brown? [5/
black?]. Racial preference:- Caucasian.[White
race]. ---- Her preferred quality:- never flirtatious,
doesn't unnecessarily takes the initiative to touch a male,
doesn't unnecessarily hug or kiss or walk with or sit next
to or talk or greet or a s s o c i a t e with a male not
related to her, because according to Scriptures and the
faithful slave c l a s s [articles on hugging, touching,
flirting, etc.], you don't need to do those things to be
able to show kindness, but actually can cause trouble
leading to improper physical[intimate] relationship. ---
[Regards unnecessarily greeting :- (note:- I said
UNNECESSARILY; I am not trying to say that it is forbidden
for a sister {or a lady} to greet a brother {or a male}, as
long as it is necessary, and if it is not flirtatious.):-
Watchtower 1981 September Fifteenth:-
Disfellowshipping-How to View It; states partly on p.25,
paragraph 23, under the subheading:- SPEAK WITH A
DISFELLOWSHIPED OR D I S A S S O C I A T E D PERSON?:-
-- And we all know from our experience over the years
that a simple "Hello" to someone can be the first step that
develops into a conversation and maybe even a friendship --.
So, the method of a flirtatious person might be the same
as above.] --- [Regards unnecessarily touching:- (note:- I
have not condemned handshakes, if it is necessary, and if it
is not flirtatious.) {although it might not be a good idea
for males to be taking the initiative in offering handshakes
to ladies, especially when it is unwelcomed. (?)}:-
Awake 1996 May Twenty-second:- S e x ual H a r a s s m e
n t - How to Protect Yourself; states on p. 6, under the
subheading:- Proper Conduct for Men:- -- Consider the
matter of how men should treat women. Many experts caution
against touching those of the opposite s e x. They warn that
a friendly pat on the back could easily be misinterpreted.
"Juries take touching very seriously," notes labor lawyer
Frank Harty. His suggestion? "If it involves more than
shaking hands, don't do it." True, the Bible itself makes no
blanket rule on this matter. But in view of the current
legal and moral climate, caution is in order-especially for
those who have an unconscious tendency to touch as they
converse. Admittedly, such advice is not always easy to
follow. Glen, for instance, comes from a Hispanic culture.
"Where I come from," he says, "people are just more prone to
hug you than here in the United States. In my family we
often greet friends with a kiss, but here we were cautioned
not to be too quick to do that." Bible principles, though,
prove helpful in this matter. The apostle Paul told the
young man Timothy: "Treat younger men as brothers, older
women as mothers, and younger women as sisters, with
absolute purity." (1 Timothy 5:1, 2, New International
Version) Would that not rule out promiscuous, seductive, or
unwelcome touching? -- ;; --- Watchtower 1973 January
First:- Questions from Readers :- What does 1 Corinthians
7:1 mean when it says, "It is well for a man not to touch a
woman"?-U.S.A.; states on p.32, Third paragraph from the
subheading:- -- It is noteworthy that the admonition
"not to touch a woman" also follows a strong warning against
fornication. (1 Cor. 6:15-20) On one occasion Jesus Christ
said: "I say to you that everyone that keeps on looking at a
woman so as to have a p a s s i o n for her has already
committed adultery with her in his heart." (Matt. 5:28) Thus
it can be seen that even a man's looking at a woman with p a
s s i o n a t e desire is wrong. If he had the opportunity,
he would carry out in actions the adulterous desire of his
heart. (Compare 2 Samuel 11:2-4.) By extension, then,
'touching a woman' could include any bodily contact that
springs from or excites p a s s i o n, as this is already
beyond the point of looking. --] ----- [Regards
unnecessarily hugging:- Watchtower 1964 March First:-
Beware of Toying with S e x ual Immorality!; states on p.
154, fourth paragraph from the subheading:- WHAT IS
"TOYING" WITH S E X UAL IMMORALITY?:- -- Putting your
arms affectionately around persons of the opposite s e x who
are not your husband, wife or close relatives is also toying
with immorality. A person can express friendliness without
going to this extent. While it may seem very innocent at
first, such acts can lead and have led to fornication and
adultery, resulting in some being cut off from the Christian
congregation. Incidentally, the fact that persons may be
married does not mean that they can take more liberties in
this regard than single persons. Just as often, if not more
often, it is married persons who get into difficulty by
doing such things with those not their mates. --]
----- [Regards flirting :- Awake 1991 December
Eighth:- Young People Ask . . . How Can I Avoid the Hurt
of Flirting?; states on p. 18, First paragraph from the
subheading:- How to Avoid Being a Flirt:- -- You must
therefore examine your motives when you are tempted to show
interest in someone of the opposite s e x. Are you really
interested in marriage? If not, what would be the point of
being overly attentive to that person? --] --- [Regards
flirting, modesty, etc. :- Awake 1978 March Eighth:- My
Career as a Ballroom Dancer; states on p. 19, under the
subheading:- The Effect of My Wife's Conduct:- -- Now I
began to take note of my wife's behavior. I could clearly
see that she was different from other married and single
women I knew. She dressed modestly. During all the time I
mistreated her, she never once rebelled. Lying was
unthinkable to her; she never got mixed up in gossip. What
was most outstanding was the fact that she never flirted
with anyone. Being a good-looking girl, many a man made p a
s s e s at her. Whereas at first I had attributed all
these good qualities directly to her, I now began to realize
that her beliefs, based on the Bible, gave her moral
strength and a high standard of living. -- ;; --- Kingdom
Ministry 1998 June:- Witnessing by Good Conduct; states on
p. 7, paragraph 4:- -- One young man was influenced by
the good conduct of a Witness in his school. She was truly
different-very polite, studious, and always modest in her
dress; also, unlike other girls, she never flirted with the
boys. He could see that she was living by Bible principles.
The young man asked her questions about her religious
beliefs and was impressed with what he learned. He began to
study, was soon baptized, and eventually shared in the
pioneer ministry and in Bethel service.
--] ---------- I also prefer that she doesn't have any
male friends[not related to her] if possible, because if
things went wrong that could also lead to improper
relationship. Sorry for sounding jealous, but I try not
to be too jealous, but to have reasonable
expectations. Her spiritual preference:- 1/ regular
pioneer 2/ regular auxiliary pioneer 3/ auxiliary pioneer 4/
publisher. ---- Also I prefer a firsthand person[not
secondhand(sorry for the description)], who was never
involved with any males in her life, because I feel I am in
the same position. -
