You've got porn which is bad, but then there's abhorrent forms of porn, which is really really bad.
OK then. Who decides what porn is bad? How do they know that kind of porn exists without actually viewing it?
last night all us servants were called to an important and critical meeting next week.
no one would give me a heads up on it.
our boe went to their secret squirrel school on boxing day last week so i can only assume its related to that.

you've seen or heard about the ripley's believe it or not museums, where different weird & wacky items are displayed from human culture.
let's compile a list of the weird & wacky items from the jw religion that would make a great jw believe it or not museum.

one interesting but truly tragic is the number of jwhovah's witnesses who commit suicie.. now i suspect that if a person commits suicide shortly before or after they are disfellowshipped then the elders would say that person wasn't a witness or that they had done something so terrible that they were too guilty to admit it and by their action of committing suicide they pretty much declared they were no longer a jw.. yup fancy talk to make sure any crap didn't fall on them.. so my question.. do you know of cases like this?
if so then can you answer a few more questions.. had this person been dfed or in real danger of being dfed or whatever the equivalent is if they were never baptized?.
A young brother committed suicide a few days ago on Vancouver island. Left behind a wife and small child.
2013 district convention headquarters, addresses-united states and canada..this list is 10 pages long containing the addresses and above some of the locations you will see dates, such as, (june 15-18) or something like that.

help me out if i am wrong on that.
It just cries out for an e-mail shot to each of those addresses advising them of the desirability of checking out JWN, jwfacts etc etc.
my thoughts exactly!

this info is very valuable if used in the correct way.
as an elder, i saw many people that were affected by booze, drugs and mental health issues.
a lot of witnesses fought depression and turned to other things when they realized they couldn't keep up the pace and find inner happiness with what they did do..
A missionary couple I knew were hard core alcoholics. They could really pound back the booze!
yep, you can face a judicial committee if you try to kill yourself.

A judicial committee can be formed for attempted suicide according to the flock book. The outcome of a jc is either reproof or disfellowship based upon repentance. So I guess if you were unrepentant about trying to kill yourself they could df you.
talk about kicking you when you are down
