Hahhaha great catch. Just proves there is no holy spirit guiding the writing depth.
Lol 😂

Little "oops" in today's WT Study article.
by stillin inparagraph 12 recommends that we meditate on the weekly reading for the theocratic ministry school.
ok, i'm splitting hairs here.
but there will be no more tms in a week.. somebody isn't keeping up with jehovah's celestial chariot..

Exactly what I am saying 3rdgen. I knew there would be an example. It depends on your status in the congregation
Elders sons can have sex and repent and just get a private reproof. It's all unjust.

Kate, I'm not sure where you got that information about a "sister" being DF'd- WO
I was just being devils advocate. Some elders can go to the extreme like they did in my case.
The point I was making that nothing in WT is fair and you can't count on the rules as some elders make up their own

Years ago son raised a few years as a JW. Now struggles with depression
by Check_Your_Premises inbackground:.
i spent some time here awhile back as an unbelieving mate of a jw wife.
i learned a lot, and was able to be supportive and understanding when she decided to leave the jw.. unfortunately, my son seems to have internalized many of the jw teachings.

How old is your son? How long ago did he leave WT?
If he is a teen get him involved with activities with school friends/ uni friends.
We are social creatures and need to interact with our peers.

I think it varies depending on the body of elders and the JW dating the non JW.
If it's a son of elder possibly nothing would happen. If it's a single sister with no family and the non JW has been studying for a while and an unbaptised publisher, the sister could be df'd for years and try and get Ri'd numerous time to no avail.
This is an unfair cult that has management who abuse their positions.
Take care

We went out Xmas day. We weren't being rude though. We were being friendly and doing what we thought was loving and caring.
The householders on the doors were pleasant to us and my kids when they were younger.
Now if they came to me I wouldn't condem them. I would be pleasant and tell my story. JWs in general are nice and care, they are just indoctrinated.

Request for Research Help: WTS Views on Intersex Individuals

several recent threads have gotten me started on an essay and i need some research help.
does anyone have access to anything the wt has ever published on intersex people (they might have used the now-outdated term: hermaphrodite)?

Oub,
This is a really interesting topic. I do remember the article in 2011 that someone has already posted about.
I look forward to reading your paper if you write one.

Rivalry among the sisters
by Esmeralda001 inwhen i was first introduced to the "truth", i was so distracted by the love and affection that the members were showing me that i was ready to convert into the religion without thinking twice.
i was conviced that jws were god's people (i still think some of them are).
i made it my goal to get baptized as i wanted to be part of the "only" religion that produce such good people.

Hey Purrpurr,
Glad you're trying to celebrate on the sly. I hope you have a long term plan so you can eventually celebrate out in the open.
Merry Christmas and happy new year.

I gave up my career as a chemical analyst to pioneer. I totally regret it now. I can't get back to that career now. I am training for a different career and volunteering to get experience in a new field. But because I am 42 there is no guarantee I will be recruited into a good career now.
This is an example I would not recommend to follow.
