Sooo, the economic division of the UN is going to bring down religion?
Wow, I bet no one sees that coming...cept the J-ho's of course.

Brothers who were Gay but couldn't admit/accept it! Did you have some?
by Witness 007 ini have come to realize that being gay is something you are just born with....so why judge them if it's like being born a certain race.. a brother g_____ i knew was a zealous pioneer pushing 43 years old.
he never married though the sisters thought he was dreamy and he had plenty of offers....."she's not for me" he would always, many times tell me some excuse.
he loved to give only brothers a big hug...say if you gave a public talk or something.

yes, there are plenty of gays in the org, I can think of several right now that eventually left and I hope are happy now.
The ones that stay are miserable, trying so hard to be straight, ruining others lives in the process by marrying and having children.
As a 17 year old fourth generation dub I married one. He stole 18 years of my life with his lies and game playing.
I can't blame him for it though, he was just trying to be a good dub, same as me.
Being an ignorant sheltered girl with your only sexual experience coming from a gay man really f*cks with your head.
But I'm oooh so much better now.

InquiryMan,
Katrina has been very profitable for the society. I know a JW couple who have spent countless weekends rebuilding homes for other JW's, all for no charge.
The insurance check the homeowner receives represents materials and wages. Does the JW volunterring his/her time get the wages?
No, the society does. All those men and women are giving of themselves, but the society is the one profiting.

FRUGALITY: How CRAZY did you go with it?
by Dogpatch inhere's a topic i just haven't seen to my recall.. how nutty did you go with having little possessions and intentionally choosing lesser pay for more "spirituality" as a witness?.
my situation is somewhat comical by today's standards.
at bethel in the mid 70s i got $14 a month to spend.

I would hoard a dollar here and there and had to keep it secret or my hubby would spend it.
But when the CO came to town, I would give every last dime of my savings to him, usually around $50-$200.

Yes, I remember.
That was when i finally started to catch on to there silly little games. I found it very annoying.
Why would the true religion need to use bait and switch tatics to fill there seats?

I can't say that I agree with that statement
I'm not friends with my ex because he treats me like crap.
It has nothing to do with my part of the break up of our marraige.
He has stated that he would like to be friends with me, but why would I want to be friends with someone who does not treat me with respect?

In 1976 I was sexually assaulted by my stepfather when I was fifteen. The elders said there was nothing they could do becauese it was his word against mine, and they forbade me to talk to anyone else about it.
About three years ago I talked to a CO who claimed that the elders who had handled it had been wrong and that the society always reports accusations of child abuse to the authorities and always have.
I told him that the elders had called the society for instructions, so obvioulsy they were following policy. But he refused to believe it.
I described to him how horrible it was to sit by myself in a room with three old men firing sexually explicit questions at me. I said that that interrogation was a rape in itself and no young child should ever have to sit through that. I then asked, "is that still how they handle sexual abuse accusations?"
He wouldn't look me in the eye, he looked away, hemmed, hawed, and mumbled "i'm not sure, I'll check into that"
So he lied about that Society always reporting, either that or he doesn't have a clue as to how the society handles those matters, which i find hard to believe. And as far as the "I'm not sure comment", well he was obviously a little embarresed how the socieity handles it and is ashamed to admit it.
Yep, fine christian he is.
