  i know of at least two cases personally where ones were disfellowshipped for oral sex, and many more that were reproved, privately and publically.....and no, there isnt any solid scriptural backing for this ridiculous "rule". im sure there are many more on this forum that can attest to similar experiences, so serenja, dont feel bad for believing this specific tidbit from "the net", its absoluetly true.

  can anyone please tell me the latest official position of the wbts on family members who are disfellowshiped or disassociated.

  (please quote wbts literature or boe letters as i don't have the latest).. why all of this?

  this week i met a wonderful couple who are being shunned by their own 28 year old daughter.

  LET'S MAKE A LITTLE WAGER

  perhaps you recall the instance in the bible where samson made a wager with the philistines that they couldnt guess his riddle.

  as it turned out they wheedled the answer out of him by his fiancee, but the point is that they had a wager.

  since the underlying assumption of the apostasy is that we are not living in the last days of this system of things, and that this world is not facing anything remotely like the biblical apocalypse, at least not any time soon, in the spirit of such antagonism, i would like to propose a similar wager.

  News Flash: October Ends - World Remains

  well, our resident sooth-sayer yk has once again missed the mark, as october ends and the world spins on.

  but then again, as was the case in 1914, the world may have come crashing down but i failed to notice.

  No matter how many other profound events occurred, the specific bet you made lost.

  yk-

  You have a way of twisting things around...

  you seem to always fall into the pot-kettle-black scenario, as it is you who always twists things around. ill give an example here:

  first quote from september 3rd:

  I will wager 100 bucks, that before the end of the month of October that the present financial system will be in a full-blown panic crisis; and...

  again, notice the and after the semi-colon; not an or as you would like us to believe. it was clearly a wager of two parts, those parts being:

  1.before the end of october, the financial system will be in a full-blown panic crisis

  2.before the end of october, the financial system will be in crash down mode or a state of war

  two parts, connected with the word and

  here is your quote from september 22:

  My wager specifically stated that the system would be in a financial crisis or war by the end of October.

  notice that you now have twisted your original statement so that you will now have us believe it was the word or rather than and in your wager. financial crisis or war; when it was in fact, (financial crisis) AND (war or crash down mode). an obvious twisting of words. perhaps jws are better at twisting than apostates, 'eh yk?

  LOL, cant wait to hear your attempt to weasel your way out of this one. i imagine it will start something like this......"you would have to be an imbecile or a complete moron to think i meant that both parts of my wager would come true, when i clearly meant it as an either/or scenario." LOL

  yk-

  as ive shown, the "state of war" part of the wager is pointless. but since you insist on making it a point still, i will humor you.

  You have a way of twisting things around, which most apostates seem to excel at. Nevertheless, I didn't say that I didn't mean the financial system as you claim. You are simply lying.

  actually it is you who is lying as usual. you might not have specifically said that you didnt mean the financial system, but you CLEARLY implied it on this post from september 24......it starts out with a quote from me, and then your response (the bold is my original statement):

  several of us have already pointed out that you specifically predicted the "financial system" to be in a state of war, not the u.s.

  You have got to be kidding me. That's hilarious. You are really desperate to discredit me aren't you? Why don't you explain how the financial system can be in a state of war. Now that should really be worth a laugh.

  LOL, didnt think id dig it up yk, or did you foget you had said this? no, you didnt say you meant the us and not the financial system, but you LAUGHED at the idea that the financial system could be what you meant, in fact saying it was a "hilarious" notion.

  yk-

  yes, keep spouting blubberings.

  didnt i say we could just forget the whole "state of war" part? i think i did. thank you once again for ignoring what you cannot respond to. i clearly showed that the second part of your bet is pointless, as the first part did not come to pass, but you have no response for that, do you?

  yk-

  so, you are admitting that we are not in the financial panic crisis you called for??

  Under the national emegency massive government and central bank cash infusions and bailouts have seemingly headed off financial panic in the short term.

  in other words, there is no short term financial panic, correct? exactly, there isnt. there may be at some point, but the fact is that your wager itself was short term, and as you said when you made the bet, the odds were on our side.

  I will wager 100 bucks, that before the end of the month of October that the present financial system will be in a full-blown panic crisis; and, if not in a crash-down mode, then certainly in a state of war.

  the and after the semi-colon means that in order for you to claim victory on your wager, that both parameters must come to pass. the first parameter was that the financial system would be in a full-blown panic crisis by the end of october. we are at the end of october, and by your own admission, the panic has been headed off short term. so, unless there was a clause in your wager that stated, "the wager is null and void if massive government and central bank cash infusions and bailouts happen to head off the financial panic".........you obviously owe the board 100 dollars. thank you in advance for your contribution.
