JW refuses to provide wedding stationery to Gay couple

by KateWild in

i was outraged at this and had to post it.. http://jehovahswitnessreport.com/blog/jw-refuses-to-provide-wedding-stationery-to-gay-couple.

i think she is a hypocrite and i bet she sells her invites to fornicators, or does she ask them if they are having sex before marrige, before she takes their money?.

i was never like this when i was a jw, it's even more disturbing that she is going to ask her elders what to do.

Forgive all the post, but I am slightly outnumbered. Trying to respond to as many as possible. Running out of time.

Let's tackle the larger topic of appropiate sexual conduct. How far are we willing to go?

Obviously, I cannot refuse to make a wedding cake for a gay wedding.
Can I refuse to hire the bearded drag queen to run my Middle Eastern accounts?
The next equality movement appears to be the "right" for woman to bare their nipples in public. Will I be allowed to politely ask a topless woman to leave my premises, or will that get me sued as well?

But most people see it morally superior to be monogamous and have self control.

Thank you making my point. Why is it morally superior to be monogamous but not heterosexual? Actually, both are a genetic trait. I am confident that the genetic predisposition to be promiscuous is more common than homosexuality. Why are you discriminating against promiscuous people?

So by your logic, it is wrong for me to sleep with another woman, but it is OK for me to sleep with another man.

jws,

Fear the corporations more than the government!

Good luck with that. I am glad that you can count on the government to protect you from those evil, vile Chirstian business owners. After all, those politicians are altrustic individuals who care deeply about your welfare. Let me know how that works out for you.

Quendi,

I can only believe [those relationships] are superficial and shallow.

I would like to thank you for this smug, presumptuous, self-righteous statement. It led to an epiphany.

In the non-JW world, we learn to live with people with which we disagree. That may be a foriegn concept to ex-JW. We do not DF people who disagree with us. We do not shun family and friends. Somebody may get mad if we touch a sensitive chord, but eventually (we hope), they will get over it.

Justice was served.

So you are happy that a family was driven into financial ruin and all their other customers denied their service because they would not grant a homosexual couple an exception to a policy that they consistently applied to hetrosexual couples.

Odd definition of justice. Which one of us is the hate monger?

Cofty,

[Sexual preference] isn't a personal choice. A person's sexual orientation is set by genetic and developmental factors in the womb.

So when my wife catches me in bed with another woman, I can tell her that it isn't my fault. I am genetically predisposed to being a horny dog.

Will you bring flowers to my funeral?

Scriptural Basis for Obedience to GB?

by mrhhome in

jw
friends

i have a genuine question for the jw apologist.

.

what is your scriptural justification for your unquestioning obedience to the governing body and your unwillingness to question their intepretation of scripture?.

mrhhome

Thank you for all that information. That is very useful.

Unfortunately, it has also convinced me that the GB have their butts covered in their literature. I am not convinced that any one question will cause a JW to suddenly question the authority of the GB. Either they are ready for the TATT or not. Unfortunately, that is probably an emotional state rather than an intellectual one.

Escaping Indoctrination - Faith Isn't a Virtue.

by cofty in

the unknown writer of the gospel of john put the following words in jesus' mouth, "blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.".

persuading countless generations that it is a virtue to believe incredible things on insufficient evidence, is one of religion's cleverest tricks.. the more incredible the claim; the more flimsy the evidence; the stronger the belief; the greater the virtue.. this is the exact opposite of how we operate in every other aspect of our lives.. rational people must demand objective evidence for everything they are asked to believe.

"extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence".. leaving the dogmatic claims of the watchtower is only a first step.

mrhhome

Thank you for illustrating my point.

At the moment, I am feeling like a victim of friendly fire.
