  Do You Know Any “Gay” Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  of course the religion condemns homosexuality but did you know any gay witnesses?

  i knew some bethelites that were very effeminate and i remember 4 women who were suspected of being lesbians by many in the congregation.

  they eventually moved away and were very vocal against males, especially elders..

  I'm gay and still hold to the JW view. It's a bloody rough ride.

  Bringing reproach on Jehovah's name.

  i have thought long and hard about this, you know in those midnight hours.. you will probably string me alive in what i say, but here you go-.

  i feel that the jw's do have the truth.

  i do agree with the doctrines and biblical exgenesis they propound.i do feel that they have the 'truth' i do understand they are imperfect, and i think they have had to 'refine' their teachings as time has gone on-and change accordingly- i see nothing wrong with this.

  I feel that the JW's do have the truth. I really do. I do agree with the doctrines and Biblical exgenesis they propound.I do feel that they have the 'Truth' I do understand they are imperfect, and I think they have had to 'refine' their teachings as time has gone on-and change accordingly- I see nothing wrong with this. The light gets brighter and all that.

  I did see a BBC article today though about child abuse and the 2 witness rule. I find this very difficult to defend, and I think the WTBTS has got this so wrong.They need to change.

  Bringing reproach on Jehovah's name is very serious.I would implore again that they re-think.

  This is difficult to defend at work when others know of my beliefs.

  More importantly, no child should suffer. That is the main.

  Does This Site Ever Change The Mind of “Spiritual “ Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you think witnesses who come here believe that in fact they don’t have the truth, after all.

  or are we just preaching to the choir?

  ?.

  'I think that if someone has a doubt they would investigate this place. But I’m not sure if anyone has left the religion because even though they were true believers before they visited the site, they came here and realize that what they believed was not true'

  Blimey O'Reilly. How long Minimus have you been on here asking these same questions. How many years and how many?

  In answer, no. I haven't really changed (with a lot less posts). In 16 years....have you?

  I don't think so Coco ( and that was the beloved name of my beautiful boy cat I lost- kiss)

  I like to think as an active or now inactive I have always felt the same about others. Even as an active JW I would always go out of my way to hug a d/f at the back.

  As an inaCtive JW now, I love to hug a JW now in the supermarket or wherever.

  Its all the same. I haven't changed.
