PC - If it's Homophobia, then I guess God had a little of it when he destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. If I'm a little like my Father, that's OK by me.

S and G were not destroyed for homosexuality. You are ignorant.

PC, are you gay? You seem to have an affinity for the Gay-er side. Is this why you're miffed? I see now why you're not a witness (probably because you're Gay), they don't tolerate it, and for good reason. Homosexuality is prohibited in the Bible.

I have an affinity for equality, and again, unless you read, speak, and understand ancient Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, and unless you understand the historical context in which any Bible passage seeming to condemn homosexuality was written, I wouldn't presume to presuppose an arrogant bigoted position on homosexuality. The Bible is a highly immoral book written by highly immoral men. The proof is in their actions. They recorded their crimes for all of us to read about.

And yes, I can prove the Bible God's word. But you wouldn't accept it, because it's anti-gay and doesn't fit in with your agenda of being Gay. And yes, I can prove God exist's. But you wouldn't accept the proof, because it's too painful to accept the the living God would not approve of Homosexuality. So it's easier to accept that there is no God.

Well, go ahead. Prove it.

Better wake up soon.... God is none too happy with liberalism these days. Just wait, you'll see, the end is coming for the those who hate truth.... I'm not a Witness, but the option isn't looking too bad at this point. At least these people have morals....

Well, I guess I will see you in hell, then. :)

Well....we all know what God says about Homosexuality.....but that's not important here.

Unless you read, speak, and understand ancient Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic, and unless you understand the historical context in which any Bible passage seeming to condemn homosexuality was written, unless you can prove the Bible is God's Word, unless you can prove God exists, I wouldn't presume to presuppose an arrogant bigoted position on homosexuality. Your Bible simply feeds your hatred, supports your fear, and gives false credence to your irrational homophobia. It's just another form of mental illness and ignorance you are projecting. But I dare say that the only thing you prove, unequivocally, is that the biggest problem with Christianity is that it is full of Christians. “What God says”, lol.

I bet the cops leave a loaded gun on the counter for him....

Let me simply remind you and any other Christian who uses a book written by men for an ancient tribe of ignorant murderers, paedophiles, rapists, human sacrificers, pagan god worshippers, slave owners, and woman abusers, to justify your bigotry, that, Jesus said it wasn't WHO you love, but that you LOVE. I am sure your Jesus is very proud of you.

This piece could easily be called, "Jehovah's Witnesses".

My brother and I were discussing who we thought might be gay and living a double life, I said this guy's brother and my brother said, "no more like Brian, he is a freak" he then went on to tell me a story about going to Carowinds with a group of young girls and he was being very "creepy" around the young girls...of course it looks like he is either bi or gay now so who knows. Anyways how funny.

Sexual repression causes mental and emotional illness. It stunts the emotional and mental growth of a person who would otherwise have matured with the freedom of expression and exploration of their true sexual nature . . . you know, the way heterosexuals are allowed to in our society. Paedophelia and hebaphelia can be linked to unhealthy sexual repression during childhood and adolescence. No matter what one suspects, in this man's case, he was seeking out sexual interaction with somebody in his own age group. He gets credit for that IMO.

So we should be on the lookout for a new poster here, BRGum any day now? This may be one of the few safe places for him to talk with people soon.

Wouldn't it be awesome if that were the case. His life is upside down right now, and a forum like this is probably the last thing on his mind. But who knows? Maybe he will find his way here where he can at least find some support and understanding. The poor guy needs it right now.

Now, the homophobes and anti-JWs will come out in full force making fun of the poor bastard. Talk about vultures feeding off other people's misfortunes.

Think of all the work this guy put in to becoming a MS, if the above information is correct. Not only does he now face fines and/or jail time, probation, perhaps registry as a sex offender, but the humiliation of his secret becoming public knowledge in the congregation, disfellowshipping, and becoming a pariah to his friends and family . . . who knows, maybe even a wife and children. This is an instance where Law, both State and Biblical, is piss-poor excuse for morality, and only serves to crush a man’s spirit.

I too have the same fight against my nature.

I hope you don't live in North Carolina.

First of all, I'm relieved the arrest wasn't for soliciting a minor for sex.

It's sad, really, that we live in a society where a man (or woman) has to spend their entire life pretending to be somebody they're not. We can thank the Bible and religion for that. If we strip away homophobia, free ourselves from bigotry, stop reading the Bible from a heterosexual point of view, then we would realize and accept that homosexuality is only unnatural for heterosexuals. For homosexuals, however, it is the most natural thing in the world. This poor guy has suffered his entire life fighting something he cannot help, something he should not be made to fight against, that is, HIS own nature. Repression and bigotry leads to circumstances where men made to live in the closet have to resort to doing things like this, in the dark, against the law . . .

Wow, "against the law". Heterosexuals are not arrested for hooking up at a bar or club. They are not penalized for getting naked after meeting off of a dating site.

This is not something we should view as a gotcha moment as if to judge this JW for hypocrisy. Sure, he is a hypocrite, however, he would not have to be a hypocrite if he were free to live his life out in the open free from the condemnation of Bible-thumpers and haters.

LIES, DAMN LIES, AND APOSTATES

by PublishingCult in

today, there's a lot of awesome xjw's with youtube channels and websites, and discussion boards, dedicated to helping others successfully get free from the cult of the publishing corporation.

these folks have done wonderful work and make up a vast apostate army to take on the wts and their lies, and, they do so with integrity, and respect for truth.

if you are going to point your finger and call the wtbts liars, if you are going to put yourself on the line and take up the mantle of exposing those lies, and offer criticism, you should do so from the moral high ground of integrity and truthfulness.. .

PublishingCult

well, I agree with 1, 2, 3, and 7.

HAHA, well, if you can prove 4 and 6, then I will go along with 5.

"Johnny The Bethelite" FRAUD!

by IMPOSTORS ARE DOOMED in

i was just over on topix.com, when i see this to a "rick fearon"(?

) kool-aid man thread.

someone noted that rick fearon lost all credibility over his "johnny the bethelite" nonsense.

PublishingCult

No matter what Rick says or how he tries to say it wasn't his fault, he and he alone is responsible for investigating and fact checking and verifying that his sources/guests are the real thing. If he is going to put that crap out for public consumption, he is responsible if it's exposed as a lie or fraud.

It's called "ACCOUNTABILITY".

what lies and half-truths has he promoted?

Guess you didn't watch/listen to the video.

Lie/half-truth 1. That the image in the Creation book depicts homosexual buttsex.

Lie/half-truth 2. That the image in the Creation book is blasphemous and perverted.

Lie/half-truth 3. Blind uninformed speculation attributing nefarious motives to Rutherford for using the image in the Creation book.

Lie/half-truth 4. That God exists.

Lie/half-truth 5. That homosexuality is perverted and immoral.

Lie/half-truth 6. That Jesus died for our sins, and his death has any value or meaning in relation to our everlasting life.

Lie/half-truth 7. That any aspect of the WTBTS is in any way like a "screen".
