by Designer Stubble inwe will not weigh you down with burdensome lists, as you have the freedom to choose, but here is our list anyway.some snippets:.
the law showed jehovah’s strong feelings against clothing that does not make clear the distinction between male and female—what has been described in our day as unisex fashion.

AND the law also promoted killing of anyone who broke a rule...are we now going to do that too?
@stuckinarut2
Yes, basically they do what they can do to the extent they can get away with legally, with shunning and treating human beings like the living dead. If they could legally put someone to death I'm sure they'd vomit up an article describing how it was done in the Old Testament and how it should be applied now.
They're like the pharisees bemoaning the fact the Romans didn't allow them to impose the death penalty. Bunch of filthy-lucre-loving, blood-stained-hand hypocrites that they are at WT HQ!

Beards - September 2016 Watchtower
by Listener inthe issue of whether beards are acceptable or not is addressed in the september 2016 watchtower - well sort of.
it is as clear as mud as to whether they are allowed in places like australia, usa and britain.. 17. what are some factors that may affect whether a brother wears a beard?17 what about the propriety of brothers wearing a beard?
the mosaic law required men to wear a beard.

There's probably more and more JW's waking up and questioning this Rutherfordian no-beards doctrine. Something needed to be said and as usual the WT vomits a lot of words saying basically nothing much.

I'd say David_Jay has a point. The WTB&TS has died to its old ways of publishing and it has been rebranded and reborn as JW.0rg, let's see how long this lasts.

You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble
by wannaexit ini was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.
if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.
i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.

Someone anonymously tipped the elders?
by raven inso here an update on my current situation, in a nutshell i've been trying to quietly fade for the past 5 months.. well, my mom somehow found out that i am currently fading and that i live with my boyfriend (for more info on this check my previous posts) i told her yes i live with him and yes i no longer want to be a jw.
anyways, yesterday she met my boyfriend.. awkward.
and after lunch she pulled me aside to tell me that the po came up to her (he was part of my jc when i was reproved) he said to her "someone came to me and said - i cannot say who so they will remain anonymous- but that your daughter is living with someone" my mom confirmed and apparently he told her that i have one week to confess this, and if i don't my parents are obligated to tell them everything.. what kind of nonsense is that?

@Tenacious
Geoffy J. wasn't quite upfront with the ARC about fading.
Technically, faders can be off the JW radar unless they break WT rules and the BOE hears about it. Then their hounder detectors kick in and the hunt is on.

7,712 Ukranian JW's did. This post and video compliment their resolve and good example. Looks pretty nutty to me. Amazing what people will do for "The Truth(R)".

James Mixon: "Calling them a A hole would get you DF. But they would have to prove that"
I actually know of someone who got baptized and four months later called the hounder elders, who did a shepherding call on him about his attitude, "a-holes". And yes, he did get DF'ed.
But what about just mocking them, like "wasn't I just kidding" sort of thing? Would that qualify of brazen conduct? I guess it depends on how annoyed the elders are.
What about making fun of a Gobbering Body member, how would that go over? I'm thinking apostasy.
What do you think?
