  Newbie alert

  2. friends

  nice to meet you all.

  long time lurker, but now i can get my twopenneth in.. a brief history.. born into the religion, but it never really took hold - thankful for an easily bored mind and strong, worldly grandparents.. never very interested - dragged from meeting to field service.

  in the teenage years i wanted university and my parents want a pioneer.

  " The question remains what are they to be taught..."

  They're discussing the latest "new light" about the meaning of the 10 toes of the image.

  Unfortunately, they can't pretend to be sick in order to stay home and skip studying this same publication a 57th time.

  Why dose the WT hate porn?

  by on the rocks in

  1. social
  2. entertainment

  porn movies are the most positive ones...no murder,no war, no fight, no cheating, no suspense (every body knows the climax).

  just love and lots of love with happy endings.

  " Porn exploits human sexuality commercially in a demeaning derogatory way for consumers. "

  The NHL exploits professional hockey in a demeaning derogatory way for consumers. The lockouts/strikes, the advertising, the expensive tickets, the overpriced beer, the fights, the missing teeth are all degrading to the fans.

  I certainly won't pretend to have any answers, except that stuff involving threats or abuse is immoral and criminal, as described by unstoppable. But some of the comments give the impression that women never willingly engage in exhibitionist sex, enjoy sex, partake of porn, or gawk at hot guys.

  Magic Mike anyone?

  Doesn't Fifty Shades of Grey qualify as porn? From what I've heard, it's totally degrading of women. It's no surprise that millions of women around the world are disgusted by it and want nothing to do with men like Christian Grey.

  Very well done. WT succeeded in confirming the authenticity of that letter to the BOEs and their terrible policies that endanger children.

  "Strong hope enables us to resist apostates and their gangrenous 'empty speeches.'"

  by cedars in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  those obviously aren't my words, they are from the latest study edition of the watchtower (april 15th, 2013) page 11.. .

  it's nice to know that, not only are we "mentally diseased" - we are also now "gangrenous.

  " since the society seems to enjoy using medical terms to insult us, are there any bets what the next published insult will be?

  I think that with the increasing number of partakers, more JWs are upgrading their helmets of hope of salvation from earthly "losers" to heavenly "rulers." Here's their improved helmet of salvation to protect the anointed from bed-wetting, puppy-kicking apostates:
