in my old congregation there are two brothers (non related) who are in the early 30s.
they've never dated girls.
they're "best friends".
What were the two guys' names? Patrick Fitzwilliam and William Fitzpatrick?
Pat Mcgroin maybe?
I know of two pioneer partners who had a gay relationship. One married and the other single. Neither were disfellowshiped. Probably because the married one was married to an elder.
due to unforeseen circumstances, i need to say goodbye.

i have every faith that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will bring about needed change very soon given the continuous pressure they face.
Did you get the full force of the iron fist in the velvet glove for writing those letters to WT?
I would be interested to know what exactly the GB has done that gives you 'faith' that they will change for good?
"if you are a young person you need to face the fact you will never grow old in this system of things.. why not?
because all the evidence in fulfilment of bible prophecy indicates that this corrupt system is due to end in a few years...as a young person you will never fulfil any career that this system offers".
may 22 awake!
Didn't the Watchtower issue an apology for these statements around 1980?
i think the single biggest mistake the governing body have made in the last 10 years has to be creating jw broadcasting and putting their gb members on there... on a weekly basis too.. when i was a kid, i had no idea who the governing body were, what their names were or what they looked like.
there was one or two long term pioneers that knew the names of two of them but that was about it.. when i was about 10yo i imagined they looked something like this:.
ahh.... those learned men with a lifetime of bible knowledge just oozing out of their very hearts.

shhh, let's keep it our secret!
Since most of their followers are major sycophants, then I guess the GB will never know.
he asks the barkeep for 13 glasses of water.
he turns to his 12 companions and winks....
Jesus walks into a bar............
I have told this joke from the OP to 6 people now and not a single person got it, and I had to explain.
and how long will it last?
and who will come after that, yahweh, as the old testament says or jesus, as the new testament says?
the scriptures say he'll come to the mount of olives, but surely that's a spiritual mount of olives.
can it come any time or are there things that have to happen first?
Will there be any advance warning from the GB?
There must be a King of the North. If the big A is coming soon who is the King of the North?
Decades ago the GB identified who the King of the North was, with the aid of holy spirit of course.
Why doesn't today's GB name the King Of The North?
To answer the OP with reality, my best guess is sooner or later a very large meteor will impact the earth creating the next extinction event.
i still go to the meetings because of my in wife and it came about that the elders knew of my pissed off attitude about the society getting involved in the un.
so the elders said they could help me get over that and wanted to meet with me.
now just to let you know, i have only told my wife and her mom so far about it, that's it.
Those elders behaved like little children who put their fingers in their ears and say: "I can't hear you... I can't hear you."
What a bunch of cult pussies they are!
had two lovely jws (stephen and ruth) visit this morning.
this was our second study in the last 2 weeks.
they first knocked on my door (bell is out) 3 weeks ago and i shared my testimony and we arranged to meet last tuesday which we did.. our first study went like this:.
i'm sure we've all heard this argument by theists employing the fine-tuning argument.
are you aware, however, of exactly how much this "little bit" really is?
theists would have us think that the slightest change in the distance would have drastic implications for survivability.
