I laughed when I read Young People Ask and they quoted some verse from one of Paul's letters about "deaden your members regarding fornication" and said masturbation doesn't "deaden them" but excited them... yeah, for 10 minutes (or longer depending on the person), then you can relax and go on with your day. Telling someone not to masturbate gets them nowhere: they will eventually cave, we're meant to fuck.

And JW's are not allowed to think about sex? O_o
by nowawake14 ini thought this might catch your eye.
especially if you're a man.. they say thinking about sex is wrong!
that's biologically impossible.

Sounds like you're awake alright, haha. Yeah, I don't know how they did or do it either. I was never a Jehovah's Witness but my parents raised me in a fundamentalist Baptist church where the pastor went on and on about if you look at a woman with lust you already committed adultery with her in your heart. I used to feel terrible because I couldn't stop thinking about fucking women, and then I realized one day that I couldn't keep that rule if I wanted to. That was right around the time I started dating and my first girlfriend mighta helped with that too... Sex is natural and healthy, and anyone who tells us not to have it doesn't have our best interests in mind. It's that simple.

march broadcast about neutrality
by road to nowhere ini notice they commented that "we" should not sympathise with protestors, like the protestors are always right.
sometimes i feel a protest would be a good place for a machine gun, because i do have feelings on different things.
despite their stated neitral stance, the wt is left leaning.

Be Bold Circult assembly
by Rattigan350 inat the 2018-2019 be bold circult assembly yesterday.
yes, curcult, change the i to an l. because when they have 2 demonstrations about youths not going to university and another talk says for adults at work to be bold and refuse birthday treats being given away, it shows so much pettiness and lack of real concern for the people.. i was actually looking forward to the ca because a week before tornadoes went through our circuit and passed 2 miles by a kingdom hall and less than 1 mile by another that had meetings that afternoon.
i was expecting the circult overseer to give a report on it.

How much bolder can you get than saying no to cupcakes? That's true bravery right there. -

I highly doubt pedophiles go door-to-door, make notes about the home alone kids they encounter, and go back later on their own and try to talk their way inside; that's silly and along the lines of 'stranger danger' kind of stuff. Remember, pedophiles typically molest children they know, relatives, family friends, etc. The real concern, and I'm sure you share this concern with me, is pedophiles working door-to-door with young Witnesses who they might find themselves alone with, or make the opportunity to get alone with, at the Kingdom Hall before the car groups go out or in the car 'working' one-on-one with them. That should worry everyone, especially because men tend to be pedophiles, and the Governing Body gives men (whether Elders or not) immense authority in 'Jehovah's organization.' This makes it all the more difficult for a child to resist if a pedophile tries to molest them.

March broadcast - Tightpants Tony wants to be filmed in action
by sir82 indid anyone else notice this?.
tony tightpants has the "morning worship" featurette in the march jw broadcast.. he appears to be hoping that someone will be videotaping the slaughter of 7 billion men, women, and children at armageddon.. quote is something like "we have some really good videographers here at bethel, but i don't think even they could capture what will happen.
still, all things are possible with god..." (not exact, but that is the gist).. and of course morris imagines himself as one of the "anointed", who will be the ones, per wt doctrine, to conduct the slaughter.. it takes a special kind of hubris, arrogance, and sadism to wish that you yourself could be filmed in the act of slaughtering billions of people.. i've encountered a lot of jws with "dark souls", but based on his public comments, i'd say morris has teh blackest one i've seen.. if he says stuff like this for broadcast to 8 million + jws, what does he say in private?

Help from the elders, the author means they should turn themselves in so the elders can shame them and throw them out. Their euphemisms will never cease to amaze me.

Fearmongering : The greatest ploy the Watchtower Society uses against its faithful members
by RULES & REGULATIONS in"shortly, within our twentieth century*, the "battle in the day of jehovah" will begin against the modern antitype of jerusalem, christendom.
" (the nations shall know that i am jehovah; 1971; 2nd ed.
fearmongering or scaremongering is the spreading of frightening and exaggerated rumors of impending danger or the habit or tactic of purposely and needlessly arousing public fear about an issue.

The Governing Body prefers to attract people with the promise of paradise, but if that fails, there's always threats of a violent death at Armageddon to fall back on. They should go to jail for making death threats to their followers, that's what Armageddon is. Tony even claimed recently that he and the other Governing Body members would charge into battle with Jesus, so he's even telling the faithful, I myself will kill some of you, soon, if you don't obey me.

Awake No. 2 2019 - Way To Destroy Your Childrens Hopes And Dreams Watchtower!
by pale.emperor innot that i spend much time on the cult's website, but i like to skim through their latest propaganda to make sure i'm up to date with their nuttiness.

The article contains puzzle pieces kinda that fit into a larger frame they don't offer the casual reader who grabs a magazine off the cart or accepts a copy at the door. We pick up on that frame: when they say "apologize quickly" or "serving others is a privilege" what they really mean is be submissive, or more specifically, "submit to the Governing Body and the Elders by living your life however they tell you." The author(s) want their advice to stand alone, as if the article will help the casual reader raise their child, but we all know the article doesn't stand alone: it's sorta preliminary advice which tests whether you're "fit" to join up, which makes much of the advice ring hollow or come across as blatantly hypocritical, as other posters pointed out already. -
