They must be getting desperate, commercials cost money. I also heard an apostate talk where this was suggested, and this was shot down. They said if they ran programs, etc. the r & f would just sit and not preach. They don't want that.

Sex before marriage
by Jules Saturn infor ex jws, pimos, pomos, faders, born again christians, agnostics, atheists, etc.
what is your opinion regarding sex before marriage, has your view been influenced since you left?
in western society, you’ll probably find yourself ridiculed to be an 18 year old virgin so i am curious to hear opinions from here.

The bible is a 2000 year old book, and was written before birth control, condoms and such. Homosexuality was wrong because God wanted to grow the nation of Israel.
Nowadays, in western society, most people are not concerned with virginity and such.

Bad teachings for kids
by Freedom rocks induring my time in the cult i sometimes sat during a talk thinking why on earth are they talking about topics like this with kids in the audience.
talking about sex and masturbation was probably the worst one i heard and my daughter was only 5 at the time.. what inappropriate talks or comments have you heard over the years that children should not be exposed to really?.

I remember an old couple in our hall concerned over the prohibition on oral sex, because they thought they meant speaking to each other during sex, such as "I love you" , etc. lol. Actual oral sex never entered their minds.

I remember hearing about a sister who was waiting at a bus stop on her way to work. She was dragged into the bushes by a complete stranger and raped and severely beaten. I heard her husband was at her side in the hospital, the elders showed up with no concern for her, just to ask him if he forgave her for her "adultery". Sickening!

Why are JDubs scared to death of apostate websites?
by Sour Grapes inwhen i was an elder back in the 1970's i loved to debate and challenge ministers, preachers, and holy rollers.
now you can be a loyal jdub fully indoctrinated for 30 years but just take a peek at an apostate website and you are doomed.
yes, satan now has you by the gonads and all of the years of being at the meetings, all of the family worship nights, all of the conventions, and all of the personal study just go up in a cloud of smoke.

I was ashamed of being a jdub. I hated not saying the pledge of allegiance. Being in school sucked because I was forced to be a misfit who didn't fit in, hence my name, Biahi, it stands for Born In! Always Hated It.

Org's "rearranginging deck chairs on the titanic" serving 2 purposes
by nowwhat? inin 2 weeks we will be announcing major changes in northern ohio congregations and there is quite the buzz in the area about it.
just talked to a jdub from the detroit area that just underwent similar changes, and they mentioned it has been "quite exciting" to get to meet new brothers and sisters.
so besides the cash benefit of selling a couple kingdom halls in the process.
