I used to make shepherding calls until I was reproved for only shepherding the prettier sisters.

Sister attendants not able to give directions to a brother..Misogyny
by Theburstbubble inat our recent rc i was advised by a sister who was an attendant that they have been advised not to be able to give brothers directions as this should be dealt with by the brothers.
apparently at the pre-convention attendants meeting, the sisters were asked to stay behind.
this was when they were given the news that the brothers should deal with brothers.

It's probably true of early teens. Back in the day many of my school mates would indulge in same sex relationships, however it was generally regarded as a "make do" stop-gap until a willing female was encountered.
JW boys were no different. Although we were aware that sexual intercourse resulted in disfellowshipping, it didn't occur to anyone that same-sex play was any more serious than masturbation. The WT only talked about fornication, little else.

What are the current rules about vaping from the GB?
by purrpurr ini mean e cigs and vaping.

is this allowed?

I see there's talk of the UK government providing free e-cigarettes to hardened smokers in order to get them away from their ciggies. And of course, everyone says how harmless e-cigarettes are - just like they said about ordinary cigarettes not so long ago. Not that there's none so pure as the purified..

by purrpurr inin today's wt study it makes the point that just glancing at the opposite sex is flirting and can lead to sex!.

I've been happily married for over 40 years and I'm an incorrigible flirt!
See, I just like women. I like the way they talk, look, speak and I enjoy their company immensely. But that's it. I don't want to shag anyone else. But I'll dance, hug and be hugged and just generally enjoy the male / female interaction.
Vive la difference!

Billy's comments to the RC #1 - "We always require at least two witnesses... except for when we don't."
by Billy the Ex-Bethelite ini'm still trying to catch up on the rc broadcast posted to youtube, and i haven't been able to keep up with everything discussed here about it.
however, there have been a few points that i wish i could submit.
repeatedly it has been stated that unless there is a confession, jcs can only act on testimony if it is corroborated by two or more witnesses to the wrongdoing.

Plus when the dubbies quote from Deuteronomy to confirm their 2- witness rule, notice that chapter 17.6 makes it clear that the 2-witness rule applies when someone is to be put to death:
On the evidence of two witnesses or of three witnesses the one who is to die shall be put to death; a person shall not be put to death on the evidence of one witness.

They always had it tough..
"A 1931 Ford cost about $600.00. The Cadillac [below] cost between $5,400.00 and $9,200.00 depending upon style. This means Rutherford's Cadillac cost between NINE and FIFTEEN times as much as a regular new card in its day. That car cost much more than many nice houses of the day."
