Playboy Features Hijab for the First Time
by Village Idiot in.
don't know about you guys but i've always found something erotic about muslim women wearing the hijab and, not the burkha, but a modest loose dress that leaves plenty to the imagination.
it has an air of the mysterious like i want to actually get underneath it and explore what most men are not allowed to see in the relatively modest dresses of western women.. here's an article on miss playboy bunny: https://www.yahoo.com/style/145960-182016583.html.. any fantasizers out there?.

I think reading the article may clarify her reasons. I have not, so I could only speculate.
I hate to ruin any fantasies, but many hijabis are just wearing normal, everyday clothes underneath, in fact, some women just cover their hair and wear jeans and a tunic top. Some wear as little as possible under a long overdress, cause we live in very hot climates. I don't cover my hair in the states, but I wear modest clothes.Muslim Pakistani women often wear traditional Salwar Kameez with the long scarf draped modestly over their chest, but hair is not covered-even in Pakistan. Some cover their hair for tradition, while wearing tight jeans. Sometimes they are wearing their pajamas under the robe. I did that in Mecca. Striped cotton pajama pants and a tank top. It was 105 degrees. I didn't want to pass out in the heat.

Major congregational quake in Southern California
by Hecce inthis notice is not official yet and it should be confidential until released thru the proper channels.
a friend of mine told me about a huge elders meeting in southern california.
the subject was the relocation and dissolution of some congregations; it seems that this is the result of some project that has been going on for some time and is going to be implemented right now.. please let me know if this is happening all over the country?.

Gerrymandering? Just more of the same.

Oh, this is so hard for you. Our family has faced peritonitis twice and come through-years ago, but it is hard and she will need a lot of rest. I sure hope you will not face the future without your good wife. My thoughts are with her, you and your whole family.
This JW distraction is totally inhuman, and I hope that your poor mom recognizes how much love that there actually lives in that organization. Not much.

Question about an elder and if I am crazy
by life is to short inok so i have a question.
i was a very, very true believer until i saw the child molesters in my hall and how that whole thing was handled.. my husband is older than i am and had been an elder for 12 when we married.
so fast forward to 06, we are in a hall where i thought all the elders were ok at the worst and great at the best.

I'm sorry. Is your husband still a true believer?

Another WT quote taken out of context from Author
by LevelThePlayingField inin this weeks mid week meeting the society is trying to explain why humans are a higher level of being than animals and then they say this: .
12 “so, to me how precious your thoughts are!
o god, how much does the grand sum of them amount to!

The author was made that statement, and the statements surrounding it clarified the meaning and also provides the foundation and context to the statement under discussion, but that's just my opinion. It truly is intellectually dishonest to quote the statements as authoritative when they would deny the author attribution because the science book, the very PARAGRAPH from which they are quoting, goes against their teachings.

It is technically not a false quotation. It is out of context, especially considering that they are relying on the expertise of source whom they give no credibility to because of the expressed belief on evolution. It is further offensive in they make unattributed quotes. Anyone who passed 6th grade knows better, and anyone in high school knows it will lower grades significantly. But why? There are morals, ethics, laws and respectable and responsible journalism at stake. Of course, that would not really impact JWs.

Old Letter to the Governing Body
by WITNESS-FOR-WATCHTOWER-REFORM inthis is an older letter i wrote to the gb in october last year in regards to their policy around shunning of dissociated ones.
the letter doesn't focus on the disfellowshiped, but am in the process right now of writing to them regarding their recent watchtower on shunning disfellowshipped relatives.. the letter i wrote back in october rambles on a bit, but wanted to express my frustration to the governing body about their very unfair policy toward those who simply choose to leave.. regards.
the governing body.
