so it's ok for nominal christians but not ones who want to keep free from practises with pagan origins.
Using that analogy then, you could extend that to other holidays that are not viewed or celebrated in the same manner. Easter for example, whereas it had a pagan origin, it is no longer a celebration of pagan belief, but instead is a celebration of Christ's resurrection.
I doubt the WTS would ever start down that slippery slope judging from what I have read in these forums.
i was wondering as a jehovah witnesess aloud to have oral sex ?
i cant rember if its a contious thing or ure totally not allowed ?
reply plz :)
Thank you for the feedback everyone. I guess as an outsider I cannot fully appreciate the impact religion has on the marital bed. I think I had always just assumed that what a married couple do behind closed doors sexually is between them and them alone.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention through the posts. I would have never known otherwise, and at least now I know what questions to ask in advance.

My First Post...
OMG after reading that bit of research I was...crushed.
I am an agnostic, however I have been dating a JW for about 2 months now. I respect her tremendously, and have given serious thoughts of making her a more permanent part of my life. I have even decided recently to go to a Kingdom Hall in order to more completely understand her beliefs and what may* become a major part of my life if we go down that road.
But knowing that such simple pleasures, ones that should be able to be shared between two people that love one another, or are even married, are forbidden without exception is inconceivable!
I had not thought to bring up sexuality with her for fear of sounding sex-obsessed, so I do not know for sure that she follows the JW doctrine quoted above for sure. Can any current or former JWs comment on if they themselves did/do not do such things with their wife/husband?
Also, would it be acceptable to speak to her about this subject after dating exclusively for a couple of months only?
Understand that without being too graphic here, I absolutely love "going down" and cannot imagine not doing so with the woman I love, much less a woman I were to marry.
Thanks
