1/25 WT: Oral and Anal sex are a go - if she's ok with it

by neat blue dog in

he will not pressure her to engage in sexual acts that make her feel uncomfortable, that are demeaning, or that bother her conscience..... the bible does not provide details as to what sexual practices between a husband and a wife should be considered clean or unclean.

a christian couple must make decisions that reflect their resolve to honor jehovah, to please each other, and to maintain a clean conscience.

generally speaking, a couple would not discuss with others this intimate aspect of their marriage..

And crowd 3 congregations into a school gym. If at the hall leave in a hurry so the second group can come in; or if the second stay up we'll past bedtime.

If you feel the necessity The actual commemoration takes 5 minutes without the windy talk or gathering (2 or 3?) in a formal setting.

Did you loathe going in field service, if so why?

i always felt like i was not a "spiritual" person because i loathed going in field service.

i'm not even sure why i loathed it.

i am very outgoing and can talk to anyone, anytime, about anything.

Best times we're doing "still" not at homes, breaks, if somebody got on a study a nap waiting for them. Worst was too hot or cold and that damned tie. Add mood music to keep us older ones from hearing conversations.

THE PROBLEM WITH THESE 2 NEW GB MEMBERS APPOINTMENTS

by raymond frantz in

https://youtu.be/rjr0ugtu6zu?si=d3zsz20ee33gytxi.

these new appointments are troubling, to say the least, especially considering the factors surrounding their selection.

these appointments raise key concerns about leadership, experience, and what is happening behind the scenes at the organization's headquarters.

So far as I know the one-week halls are where travel is long. One I knew about (Wyoming) had 100 miles so everything was Sunday

Zoom here has 25 to 40 cameras with only 2 or 3 pictures shown. Many elderly, sick, single sisters in rough neighborhoods.

What made you look behind the jw curtain?

by Touchofgrey in

i was listening to a lunchtime call in radio show about jws and the personal experiences of being disfellowshiped, and a former elder called in saying he was disfellowshiped for asking about jws and their involvement in the un in the 1990s ,and he just said look it up.. thinking that it was a made up lie ,so i looked it up and it was true even a letter confirming it from the un itself and that led me here and to jwfacts and further research into the history and teachings of jw and walked out the door about 5 years ago.

Sickness caused missing meetings so the Kingdomministry wasn't sent out. The only place to find one was apostate sights.

The World Today

i've been meaning to share some recent experiences that defy the usual tropes about the 'world gone to hell' or 'people now days".. as some of you may remember i was seriously ill for a while and had to close my business and shop.

now, as it seems i have beaten it, i put up a sign again advertising that in a limited way i'm back.. what amazes me is how many times over the past 2 years customers and even competition have written and called to express their concern and best wishes.

just last week i had a personal visit of someone who i thought of as a rival, come in and shake my hand sincerely happy to see me up and around.

Blondie

There is a reason we only sang those songs at meeting. And off key.

Remember the service group in the van with "mood" music interfering with conversation?

There are still people who refuse to believe the flame song in the convention was taken from a rock band, especially when you show them the (obviously demonized) album cover.
