  i've always wanted to know.... why were there prostitutes in isreal?

  why weren't they "stoned", and who were "visiting" them... hmmm, and why didn't they have a test for adultery for men?

  i think its pretty obvious.

  Were? There still are prostitutes in Israel. I've seen programs that have shown it to big bizness there and the a lot of the prostitutes are shipped in from Russia.

  So the oldest profession is still in the holy lands.

  Another question is , what if A doctor need your sperm to be examined maybe to see why you can`t make babies or something, can we produce this sperm without sinning???

  If you think masturbating is a sin, then the answer is no.

  If you think masturbating is not a sin, then the answer is yes.

  If the notion of sinning holds no value for you, then the answer is...well it wouldn't even be a question then. lol

  I have the same question as someone before me: If it's a sin to touch yourself "down there" how do you clean yourself? And I would think this would be more of an issue for the ladies, since ladies do have a lot more going on down under.

  I have hair sprouting from from my areolas!

  When I was 17 my mother found out that I had been sexually active and she took me to a OB/GYN for my very first pelvic exam.

  I hadn't had my period in 7 months and she wanted to make sure I wasn't pregnant (I wasn't, I just have very irregular periods). Well since I hit puberty I had become quite hairy, I had (and still do) a lot of public hair, hair on my tummy and breasts, and dark hair on my legs. And my mother asked the doctor if it was normal for a girl of 17 to have that much hair down there (boy did I feel like a freak). The doctor said that it was mostlikely a hormonal imbalance and to make my periods regular and take away some of the hairiness he could put me on the pill. My parents didn't allow it cause they thought it would give me permission to have sex.

  So anyway having babies may have just exasberated the hair problem that I have. Why me!

  I pluck the stuff on my face and someone once suggested I shave all the hair off my tummy, big mistake! Itched for days lol.

  Ah well such is life

  I'm a check chewer. I've done it for as long as I can remember and I can't stop (I'm 37). I do it when I'm stressed, nervous, tired, bored, freaked out, and just out of habit. I do it without thinking and it drives my parents mad (but I don't care about that). Strangely my hubby has never commented on my strange habit (go figure).

  Also I have facial hair. It's on my upper lip and I have a patch on either side of my chin. I think it started when I started having kids. I did take fertility drugs for my first two kids but it was such a low dose - could that have been what started this stuff growing on my face?

  Man where's my tweezers!

  If we shouldn't masturbate why do we have hands and why are our sexual organs in such easy reach.

  Why does our organs feel good to the touch? I mean we all could have these sexual organs but without the pleasure sensation and I think still be able to procreate.

  Am I making any sense here?

  we have heard of different celebrities having ties with the watchtower.

  some are rumours, others seem to be true.. i was wondering who out there has heard that a celebrity was involved in the watchtower, and does anyone have any personal knowledge or experiences regarding this?.

  here is my list of what i have heard at one time or another:.

  Also:

  Larry Graham (I've heard that he was the one who studied with Prince and brought him into the bOrg) - had a hit song "One in a Million", played I think with Sly and the Family Stone.

  Thersa Graves - star of the 70's series "Get Christy Love".

  And some mystery writer, I can't think of his name.

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in over 4 decades, i have gotten to know a number of people in the organization.i have met governing body members, very prominent bethelites, co's and do's.

  i also have come to know countless elders.the majority of elders that i have known are not the brightest human beings on the planet.

  most thought they knew it all.

  I have 2 uncles and a cousin (by marriage on my mom's side) who are elders and sad to say they are not the brightest of the bunch, esp my mom's cousin. When I heard he was made an elder I just shook my head in disbelief and thought that the org must really be hard up for elders.
