  in the most recent circuit assembly there was a lot about porn and warning against porn.

  even warning against looking at swim wear adverts!

  so i was wondering, is porn really such an issue in the wt?.

  FYI - "Brothers" jacking off to porn has saved a lot of JW marriages.

  Too many sexually repressed wives not giving sex was a common theme - speaking as a long time elder.

  JDubs love to feel persecuted

  the spotlight is on the witlesses problem of protecting child sex abusers and disfellowshipping those who were sexually violated.

  i bet the jdubs thought they would be persecuted for their preaching work and announcing god's kingdom not for having more pedophiles than the catholics as a ratio of members to sex perverts.. the thing that gets me is that we care more about the problem than the jdubs who are high on watchtower cocaine.

  most of them will ignore the news reports as from apostates and are lies just like the gibbering body said would happen.

  100% right - thats why no bad press can come out that will cause a mass exodus.

  Really it would take policy change, like saying taking blood is ok, or no more DFing, or 1914 was wrong, or the generations is symbolic.

  so, as some of you will know myself and my husband are in the process of fading.

  haven't been to a meeting since beginning of 2017. .

  we weren't planning on going to the memorial, but last week my mother broke down and said that we have to go to the memorial even if it's the only meeting i go to this year.

  If you're expecting a mass exodus anytime soon, FORGET ABOUT IT!

  i have to make a token appearance at the k.h.

  once a month or so and this week went to a different hall.

  and believe me they are all still totally oblivious to all the negative news about the pedophiles and shunning that have come under scrutiny by the media and other governments.

  I love the line "there are some who claim to be chrisitan, that believe he (jesus) is god."

  The ass makes it sound like this is some fringe point of view, and not that 99% of christians are Trinitarians.

  Always disingenuous always spinning.

  Oh and by the way, even if you have been having GOOD SEX up till now, the JW guilt on his part will mount and mount. Everything will be going sour.
  It is just the way it is.

  After leaving the JWs - Has anyone stayed with Christianity?

  by rulehayl in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i recently made the decision to stop studying with my study conductor, due to a situation i found myself in that led to a high possibility of my unbaptized publisher "rights" being taken away from me.

  i have since told my study conductor i have joined a new church (to which she dropped me like a hot rock, of course).... last time i posted on here, i was progressing nicely towards baptism, and was well into it.anyhoo, i like my new church, very hillsong-esqe.

  so just wondering if anyone else has stayed the course of christianity after leaving the jws, and if so - where did you go?

  Not me.
  Had my fill of myths and fairy tales that are designed to control me.

  Besides reading Richard Dawkins at the hall (while I was still an elder) I would on occasion (being attendant in the foyer) glips some Porn. Amazingly no lightning struck me down.
