Pray before sex just like you do for food-W62 3/15
by krismalone in
1. watchtower
2. bible
the governing body has lovingly provided instructions and reminders to couples that they should pray before having sex.

please be obedient and follow the wise counsel from the gb leaders who never stick their noses into other peoples business and are not creepy cult leaders at all....not!.

"had he not created the first human pair so that they could cohabit, planted in them an attraction for each other and then commanded them to "be fruitful and become many"?

going past a 'new-age' shop today i stupidly said to my most 'uber' wife, do you want a reading?

" ..not a good idea.. oh dear.. she opened up correcting my every other word and brought in a stream of jw speak and now many hours later is still steaming under an acute cloud of sol.. oh god keep me from being so stupid; cut out my tongue, glue my teeth together.

hi folks, not sure if a similar topic has been posted in previous years but it’d be great to hear how many of you have left the organisation during 2018 and also which areas/countries are losing the most witnesses.. so if you left this year (congratulations!

) put a post on here with your general location if you want.. regards.

"Psychiatrist is an Admission of Defeat"
by new boy in
1. jw
2. friends
“the christian witnesses of jehovah are the best oriented, happiest and most contended group of people on the face of the earth.

so why on earth would any good follower need the help of a mental health professional?” the society tells about the evils of seeking help from outside their organization.

"as a rule, for a christian to go to a worldly psychiatrist is an admission of defeat.

i was 5 years old when my mother was baptised.

we went from celebrating xmas to no presents or decorations.

we would still go to my unbelieving aunty's house on xmas day, all of my cousins would be playing with their new toys and would wonder why i didn't have any.
