I can recall 4 'secret sex' instances from my time at Watchtower Farms in the mid-'70's.

1. The dentists wife (John Appeltauer) was looking for an out from their marriage. She finally took up with and ran off with a family man from the Highland Congregation.

2. Young Spanish brother that worked on the wrappers was having sex with an underage girl in his congregation. He was finally caught, disfellowshipped and sent home.

3. One of the Society's truck drivers was getting it on in truck stops with prostitutes. He was a Bethel Elder and had a very nice attractive wife. Got caught and was disfellowshipped and sent home.

4. Can't remember this guys name. He was a Ministerial Servant and was having sex with a local worldly 'farmers daughter'. It was a minor scandal as the farmer did a lot of business with Watchtower and held the witnesses in high regard. Disfellowshipped and sent home. I remember him sitting in the lobby and crying his eyes out.

I am sure that there were more that we never even heard about. The human sex drive is very powerful. More powerful than even 'holy spirit'!

Panpsychism - a philosophy with a future

by slimboyfat in

at one time scientists believed that living things and non-living things were made of different material, accounting for the unique properties of living things.

this idea is called vitalism and is no longer popular.

what does remain popular (in fact is still the dominant view) is a similar idea that things that experience the world (humans, frogs, mice) are different from things that don't experience the world (potatoes, rocks, snowflakes).

I don't know which theory I like better: Phlogiston or Panpsychism.

God is our help, not “a burden”

by venus in

sir julian huxley (one of the great pillars of modern neo-darwinism) may be a symbol of people who feel god is a burden because he wrote: “the god hypothesis .

is becoming an intellectual and moral burden on our thought.

" therefore, he concluded that "we must construct something to take its place.

Venus, in post after post you continue to present your worldview as if it were gospel or that you alone have discovered the way. You never seem to be deterred from your course even in the face of disinterest. What's your point?

Deceptive comments or lies that you have heard from platform or brothers & sisters?

by Farmer Jim1 in

jw
friends

ok, so what are the most deceptive comments that you have heard from your experience in congregations?.

my top three are;.

1) service overseer during the ’ how did we do?’ annual talk, twisted the figures to such an extent that it looked like the congregations ministry was in tip-top shape.

Spirit Channeling at Wallkill's Bethel

by Marie33 in

look what an ex-bethelite has to say about the spirit channeling he saw first hand up at wallkill:.

now i believe rayven's story of horror at brooklyn bethel:.

There is a ventilation shaft/tunnel underneath the E building dining room at Wallkill. It can only be accessed through the storage room by the laundry. Do you suppose the demons use this as a 'portal' for their channeling?
