Same sex attraction is seen in all animal groups. Same sex attraction is the minority, but does that equate to it being abnormal? Is left-handedness abnormal? Which of these is abnormal, attraction to men with hairy chests or attraction to men with hairless chests?

Homosexuality, the GB and the Bible
by Oubliette inthe recent topics addressing the shamefully bigoted talk by jw gb member, anthony morris, on the subject of homosexuality got me thinking.
what the heck is up with the gb's obsession with this subject?.
as far as i can determine, jesus never said a single thing in reference to homosexuality.

Yep, a god that gets all bent out of shape from the pleiades at a human function.
Following that logic, wouldn't god also be mad when humans experience satisfying relief from blowing their nose or using a back scratcher? Same/similar to me.

Praise the Lord! God just helped me get a JOB!
by suavojr inyes, the all mighty god has just helped me get a new job!
all this happened without violating my managers freewill of course, making him think that i deserved the position.
unfortunately, there was another man with 2 kids and getting help from the government, which was turned down.. .

Three Comments & An Ass-Chewing
by piztjw inso, normally if i go to a meeting i sit and don't say a word through the entire ordeal.
however today i just could not keep my big mouth shut.. it was funny that i even got called on....three times none-the-less.
of course 99% of the sheeple just sat with blank looks on their mugs this morning.

Did the congregation even get it? Or were just waiting for the next paragraph and hoping that the study did not go over time?

A real healing caught on tape
by EndofMysteries inhas anybody heard of duane miller?
he lost his voice in 1990, he had been a preacher.
supposedly its well documented with doctors and specialists and exams some virus or something destroyed it and he wouldn't get it back.

I haven't heard of him until now. His message on this tape sounds sincere. I have no explanation about what happened to his voice or whether this representation of his voice clearing up is genuine. People that are around him all the time would be able to say whether the moment on the tape is a true representation of his voice before and after the sermon.
Other than that, I enjoyed his view of spiritual things.

Looking for thoughts to share about current WT magazine...
by Faithful Witness ini have been in another phase of jw encounters lately.
it is almost like the twilight zone... in the last 3 days, i have run into a jw every single day.
i saw my bible teacher, her daughter, and another acquaintance from the kingdom hall we attended.

Casual questions about the WT magazine. Hmm.
1. You still believe this?
2. It's such a skinny little thing, isn't it?
3. What's with all the pictures and bullet points? Where's the beef?

WT ain't going out of business.
by joe134cd ini've heard this said in other posts, so now i'm going to combine it in one post.. the $28 million awarded to conti is only drop in the bucket for what they are worth.. there would have to be 100 s of successful sex abuse law suites before they would feel it.
quite frankly i don't reckon there would be enough with the right circumstances to have a successful case against wt.
having a dozen or so cases isn't going to break the bank.

So true that the WT is not going out of business any time soon. Certainly not from any of our YouTubing, article writing, or even a law suit. One thing I learned upon leaving is that no one, I mean NO ONE, is thinking about JWs. We were taught that we are hated by the world, that we are objects of astonishment and wonder. What a narcissistic view of oneself. JWs are not on anyone's radar.
On the other hand. Where is American Motors, Pontiac, Circuit City, Gateway computers, and soon Sears and KMart? No one cares about them either.

The whole empire depends on voluntary contributions. It costs millions to insure, heat, and light the massive buildings. Never mind feeding volunteers. As the voluntary contributions go, so goes the empire. Same with any empire when the citizens cannot or do not pay the tax.

trying to convince my wife not to confess...
by wafflesandpancakes induring our engagement, we fooled around and touch each other down there.
it's not a "tap" but definitely is not "stimulation".
i tried to convince my wife, who, after 5 years of marriage, strangely felt guilty all the sudden, that its not do called porneia.

This hardly matters, but I must say that the elder to whom your wife might confess most likey had sex with his wife before marriage.

This will be fun. What is your generation count?
by Defianttruth inthe wbts teaches a overlapping (generation) will not pass away since 1914 right?.
what is your personal genealogy.
(1) my great grand father was born in 1901. he became active with the bible students around 1910. .

How does this count?
My grandmother was born in 1918, obviously after the generation of 1914. Her dad was of the 1914 generation. My grandmother was the overlap generation and lived to be 91. She has been dead 4 years.
