I'm thinking that biblecheck doesn't know or understand the WT's history past and present on it's policy of oral sex
yep I do
i was thinking tonight about all the wierd stuff that i viewed as totally normal being brought up as a jw.... here's my list.... - eating broken easter eggs after easter was not a sin.
- your car always had to be clean in time for the co visit.
- being assigned to the car park at a convention, with a walkie talkie, meant you had powerful connections.. - the amount of lines and hand writing on your sunday watchtower, spoke volumes of your spirituality.

- whenever you get a blowjob you wonder if God really disapproves or if it's only those nuts in Brooklyn being jealous. It kinda' messes with the experience. (BTW, I'm good with it now, never think of them when I'm enjoying my lover)
sorry but that comment was just...stupid

- as a kid, sneaking a bite of the dry crappy tasting bread before the Memorial was cool - and only ok if you privately begged Jehovah for forgiveness
What's yours?
the watchtower has depicted sparlock as a commercial plastic toy to be thrown into the garbage with impunity.. i submit to you all that he is something far greater.
sparlock represents all the hopes and dreams of jw children everywhere.
he is the magic of childhood.
It's actually from a 1974 Watchtower, (Hi jwfacts - yes I originally thought it was an old Awake! article too).
The image is found at the bottom of the article entitled "Can You Be True To God - Yet Hide The Facts?" - when you read the article it really is a case of the "pot calling the kettle black" in its accusation of the clergy white-washing wrongdoing.
The article starts off by saying (quote) "What results when a lie is let go unchallenged? Does not silence help the lie to pass as truth, to have freer sway to influence many, perhaps to their serious harm?....God's servants in every period...have had to expose falsehood and wrongdoing and warn people of dangers and deception - not just in a general way but in a specific way in the interest of pure worship. They realized that better is revealed reproof than a concealed love."
However it's interesting to observe how sensitive even litigiuous The Watchtower gets when their own lies are challenged or exposed.
watchtower representatives (jehovahs christian witnesses) are once again attending the osce, organization for security and co-operation in europe,meeting in warsaw on september 24 - oct. 5, 2012. http://www.osce.org/hdim_2012to see jehovahs witnesses listed as a non-governmental organization, click on http://www.osce.org/hdim_2012?view=conference_documents&display=page_2&arg=92455.
please scroll down under non-governmental organization and click on administrative centre of jehovahs witnesses in russia as well as european association of jehovah's christian witnesses.
once you click on them, you will be brought to a page with a list of all of their presentations at the osce.
something else to try and sweep under the rug?
or do you think the sheeple will just follow the gb's words without question?.
Do You Think All This New Light Will Rattle Any Of The Witnesses?
not at all - they're used to it!
1914 is a very significant date for true believers.
faithful and eager students of the scriptures figured out (and "proved") jesus would return to kill the wicked and reward the meek in 1874. the signs were obvious.
but, it didn't happen.

most of us remember the thread last month about the video that was supposed to be watched in prep for discussion at the meeting.
well at the end of this month, there is a discussion on part 2. .
part 1 had at least that one big glaring lie, about what the bible students were expecting in 1914. it then went on in the usual fashion, blaming the students themselves for having made up their own expectations.... .
