  2. friends

  unless you believe the trilateral commission runs everything, you might think one person has more influential power than anyone else on the planet.

  who's your pick??

  Did you lie before getting married in the KH?

  by Samuel Thorsen in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as you know every young couple who is planning to get married in the kh are asked a question about "clean conduct" a week or two before the wedding.

  if you admit to have been fooling around to much you can forget about the kh and go and get married elsewhere.. i'm not married myself, but i was engaged to be married once and my soon-to-be father in law (an elder) recommended a certain elder to do the marriage stuff in the kh because he was a kind of easy on the mantadory questions.. fortunatly in never got that far because me and my girl split up about 2 months before the planned wedding, but i have been to a lot of kh weddings and i know for sure that some of the couples had to lie to cover up their conduct to get married in the hall.. but how common is this?.

  did you lie before getting maried in the kh, or do you know someone who did?.

  Sunnygal41: "Years later, tho, I convinced my hubby to go with me to the elders and confess....."

  I know a guy who confessed some weeks later. He was kicked out, but they didn't boot her.

  watchtower red flags

  by Ticker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  when i was studying and in the org i never did put two and two together becuase first off it was peer pressure and a young baptism age.

  i was indoctrinated as a child so i never got a chance to ever use sound reason and judgement toword the validity of the society's claims.

  but anywho i was thinking the other day about certain things that are obvious red flags and far fetched claims that the org makes.

  Where in the litterature can I find this statement??

  Hello Mulan!

  We don't use Euros in Norway, we are still using NOrwegian Kroner, or NOK as our denomination.

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  with the latest insider news regarding the awake magazine going to a monthly publication, now would be a good time to examine a brief history of how jehovah has blessed the organization by simplifying it.

  1993 paid for literature went to donation-based literature.

  mid 1990s no food at assemblies and conventions.

  Lots og JWs do have oral sex anyway. But they dont feel like telling the elders of course.

  And some JWs lie about their clean conduct because they whant to ge married in the hall...

  Beeing a JW brings a lot of interesting aspects to life.
