Ah, come on guys & gals (no pun intended) The Faithless and Indescrete Slave has already explained this quite clearly:
Masturbation leads to homosexuality.
.
i know many christians and leader saying that doing this is not a sin because we need a relief.. god understands us that we need this if we are single, rather than have sex comitting adultery .. what do you think about this i would like some opinions please.
peace

i had been online in the witness chat rooms on yahoo for almost two years.
a few of them started saying things like, you know hygh i never thought about it like that before.
then you see how the word apostate can actually be a good thing, dont you?
I've said it before and I'll say it again: Hy, you rock!
You aren't kidding when you refuse the let them have authority over you. I will try to remember that point!
there was a thread that was asking for proof that the wts demands that the elders do what they say.
i found the following on quotes' site:*** pay attention to yourselves and to all the flock (1991) p.100-101 ***.
[click here to learn more about this lesser known book].
Even better, is the "oral additions" which were hand-written into the "Pay Attention" book.
They say, in effect, "We are telling you to do the following: Never tell anyone we tell you what to do". This is the type of logical non-sequitor that makes computers go berzerk in old Sci-Fi movies, but the elder's seem to swallow it hook, line, and sinker!.
i think that i heard it today.. this morning, i was sat in the millenium stadium, cardiff, wales, not regettably, watching an international football / rugby competition, but a charity absailing event.. to gave us all a taste of the normal atmosphere when 70,000 are present, the organisers played us the welsh national anthem over the superb sound system.
oh wow, i still have goosepimples.
it was incredible.. sorry canada, i know mulan rated you tops earlier this year, but wales have, imho, got the worlds best anthem!.
Very stirring, indeed. The english translation is very sweet.
I agree with Beans, rather than get into a "who's best" contest, I'm just glad that we are in a position (i.e. outside the bOrganziation) to discuss the merits and artistic quality of national anthems without feeling "bad" about it!

i thought i would post this for this weeks topic!.

Beans, your usual commission kick-back is awaiting you.
just a few more :) could some one provided me x-tra details, as i forgot some names (sorry).
[pic 1] who was that masked man?
i loved his signs.
Good work all.
Although, I can just imagine a conversation going on inside the WT today:
"Thank Jehovah for providing the WTO protestors. That story likely knocked these apostates off CNN, and prevented the spread of this persecution. Once again, all praise Jehoobee for providing WTO protestors on the same day!"
i just got the october 15th 2002 issue of the watchtower magazine.
on pages 8 and 9 we see a caption reading " jesus firmly opposed the devil".
jesus is standing there pointing at a slouching, hooded man.
Here is a WT picture of the Devil from the "Way-Way Back Machine". This is from The Golden Age 1926 p.0 (cover)
Other interesting pics are available at: http://quotes.jehovahswitnesses.com/pictures.htm
Look closely at the very top of the pic:
Here is a close-up. Note how the Devil's legs form part of the letter "R" -- "now isn't that clever!" Apperntly, the devil is out-of-shape and doesn't wear clothes!
this is an update on my earlier post about the treatment my son is getting from the elders, posted here:.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=37408&site=3.
well, benjamin informs me that today his mum drove him to the sunday meeting and kept him in the car until the meeting started, and then took him straight out after it had finished, so that the elders couldn't talk to him.. apparently an elder saw my wife in the street and approached her, but she told him to get stuffed (politely) but he informed her of what they intend to do.. it will be officially announced from the platform that benjamin no longer qualifies as an unbaptised publisher.. where do these bastards learn to be such bullies of children?
watchtower study article for the week of september 23-29, 2002. august 15, 2002 issue.
"he always relied on gods word in his teaching.
" "jesus wanted his disciples to be moved by their own love of precious truths (3rd time) regarding god, not by dread of their instructor.

Please provide a tape recording when you do!
those who are not "blacklisted" by the wt, do you often get dubs at your door?
ive been at this address for almost a year and i have never had the pleasure of their witnessing work!
whats going on?
I don't know if I am on the (useless) DNC list, or if the security at my condo keeps them out (they could always phone me, everyone else does).
A non-JW friend tells me when they call at his house (he always confronts them with the juicy stuff from my Quotes webpage) and usually scares them away (the often say "don't believe that garbage you read on the internet) before disappearing.
Last time they called on him, he asked them to disprove the quotes, i.e. demonstrate that they never said this or that, here is the reference, it should be easy to disprove, no? They promised they would come back. Of course, they didn't. I suspect he might now be on a "DNC warning vile opposer" list.
