i have a question.....if two jw have sex and only one of them goes to the eldurrs and confesses.....do they both get busted?

or does the boe need a confession from both people.?

if one of em denies it happened will that person still get df'd?.

I remember a case about 20 years ago where a married man had an affair with another sister, she confessed and he denied, so nothing was ever done and it was hinted at that She was having a fantasy affair.. I doubt it but it's easier to discredit the woman.

OK - I've had it - My letter to the KH

the whole time i lived in colorado, i had the dubs come by once and leave a tract.

but since moving to california, they are at my door so often i asked them to put me on the "do not call" list.

this did not stop them, in fact i have asked four times, plus once i called the kingdom hall and left a message, they still come, the last time this past saturday.

BelleStar

That is a great letter, so well written and hits all the main points. I hope someone reads it and wakes up a little. I agree with many comments on here about giving any dubs a copy, Please do. Let us know how you go on.

This is hilarious, so she turns down the Doctor who she has been admiring and who could probably give her a really good time to wait for someone so safe that the most radical thing he has ever done was to (gently) thrust a sweeping brush at another guy.. Had I been 14 my mother would have made me watch this, No wonder I developed a taste for bad Boys who sold their souls to Rock & Roll..

Im sick of my life

sorry but i really feel like i need to rant right now.

recently my dad was made an elder so my family has been doing a lot more "theocratic" activities lately.

every morning i wake up and put on my itchy dress and stupid makeup and heels and then pretend that i love what i'm doing and that everybody is my friend when in reality i feel horrible and all the other teenage girls at my hall hate me for some reason.

BelleStar

Dear Blackwolf, I feel your pain and distress so much, there are so many people on this forum who really do understand what you are going through, There has been some great advice given on this thread, I hope you can take it and use it to help yourself. Is there anyone in your extended family that could help you ? Grandparents, cousins, if so reach out to them. Once you are of age things will change. Please stay in touch with the forum as we are here to help. Could you perhaps live with another relative ? or even look around for someone who needs a live-in groom for their horses. Drastic I know but you will escape one day, my only fear is that the world can be a big place for one so sheltered. The world can be a scary place but it can also be an amazing place and it's your for the taking. I used to feel just like you, my life was so unhappy but as soon as I broke away at 16 my life began and I never looked back. Good Luck.

Dear Jehovah's witnesses, a question....

by punkofnice in

dear jehovah's witnesses and on-the-fencers.. isn't it even a little bit obvious that the watchtower organisation doesn't have jehovah's blessing?.

if it did, why are your leaders, the governing body, asking you for your money and assets?

surely, jehovah would provide for the organisation without having to use your hard earned money and assets?.

BelleStar

Ucantnome You are so right, the spin from the Elders will be how ''Times are now harder than ever'' and how the congregation must have faith that Armageddon is just around the corner and all the jw's are being tested in faith. They will have the r&f living in basic bedsits, sitting on boxes after selling all their 'worldly' goods for the Watchtower to continue churning out. The sacrifice will all be part of the greater plan.

Half of the cong was dancing last night

by StarTrekAngel in

so went to the meeting last night.

i had not been to one since before the holiday break (3 weeks ago).

besides, it was our first meeting in the new format.

BelleStar

Good Grief ! The elders back in my day would have had an aneurysm, and any movement of the hips would have only inflamed sexual desires.. I'd love to see their faces when they heard this.

What Was The Silliest "Offense" That You Were Counseled For?

by minimus in

jw
friends

when i was a teenager, i was told by an elder that because i smiled a lot and was known for my good sense of humor, that i should come across as "more serious".

so before i was appointed a ms, while in my late teens, i transformed myself into a much more "serious" brother.. were you ever told that you needed to work on something that you knew was stoopid?.

BelleStar

Someone grassed myself and my brother up for going to a Rock Concert, but we hadn't been so the counsel was based around the fact we might have wanted to go ! and all the drugs we would have taken if we had been there.. ffs, it was a nasty experience, then I was laid into by an elder who saw me out in our town wearing trousers, and I was told NOT to wear them EVER ! I cried for a week. I was a young teen and it was such horrid bullying.

Thanks

stan livedeath, I was in a hurry posting the link so didn't get chance to explain it was in the UK.. Can you imagine how the girl felt who went to her mother and it was hushed under the carpet. Not unusual practice though.
