    I believe they misused the "porneia" definition and I think they justified it because of the interaction of more than one.

    "Following the guidelines in this book promotes peace and unity among the body of elders"

    Wow, that is ridiculous.

    I mean I know they push to read the bible, but only look to them to tell you what it means, but holy crap, that's just outright.

    Just think what would happen if I were to say in a talk that it's more important to follow the Organized To Do jehovah's Will than to follow the bible? Actually, what am I saying, they'd probably give me a medal and make me a CO.

    Intresting, so now it is not only the young ones as are demonized on eldermeetings, it is also the sisters.

    It made me very angry when I hear this, I rember so well all eldermeetings I was on and all bad talk about how bad the young one was.

    In our cong it was not the young ones as do the bad things, it was the high and mighty elders, at the same time as they have speach on assamblys, and punish yuong peopel fore smal things, they use themsefs other brothers wifes(porneia), and even use teenager girls fore ther one sadifacktion.

    Evryhting wery well hide, yes they have to stepp downas elders, but most didnt now why, of course it was konfidential, as one CO told mee, if you talk about this you putt Jehova in bad light, and draw bad reputaition over hes organisation, yuo also do the will of satan, as want to destoy Jehovas peoepl, this sound unbelevebel but it is the truth.

    I must ask, someone as have heard about this on eldermeetings, never i think. We have a talk after all this mess from special brothers send out to calm down the cong, he say dont forget what David done, he aslo must have use batseba fore a long time, despite this Jehova was forgiving him, we must also forgive when someone have siin, even if it is fore a long time(when I hear this talk it come to my mind what they say one the last eldermeeting I was on 2000, if someone do things more than 2 times it is to carry on ,and then it is dfd thing) only fore young ones perhaps, not fore elders at it sems.

    perhaps they have forget Rom 2.1-3

    MRS JONES5 -

    "where in the borg will a sister learn about sex??" SO TRUE!

    Reading the WT all you hear about is mutual masturbation, homosexuality masturbation pornography masturbation lesbianism child molesters masturbation orgies masturbation.

    I have yet in 30+ years to read a healthy detailed description of what a loving fulfilling sex life is all about.

    Synopsis: Divine education is vastly superior to worldly education, as it teaches one to do God's will. A rehash of all the "schools" provided by the Organization (Theocratic Ministry School, Gilead, Pioneer Service School, Ministerial Training School, etc.). Brothers who go to Bethel receive excellent training there, and are better prepared for working in the real world if they have to leave.

    Riiiiight. I can just see some poor guy who's been at Bethel for 20 years scrubbing the floors. Helper

    He's asked to leave for whatever reason. So he applies for a position on The Apprentice along with some other guys who have degrees from Harvard, Yale or Princeton. But The Donald is just soooo impressed by this guys' ability to scrub toilets and the fact that he was at Bethel, the Holy of Holies, for 20 years, that he immediately tells everyone else "You're Fired" and hires this ding-a-ling at $250,000/year.

    Ya, I can see that happening, can't you?

    What about the brother who made chees for jehovah, and never liked it?

    Because he did it 8 hours a day in Bethel it was okay.

    If i did it 8 hours to earn a crust theyd ask why i am not diarroerrahing.

    You're the man

    It is hard to believe how we used to 'hang on every word'. And the frustration of going back home & trying to impliment all this junk.

    Eventually, while pioneering, he worked part time in a bank on Wall Street. "And who did you end up training there?" "Recent graduates from Ivy League schools" "Did you hear that brothers? A part time pioneer had to train the Ivy League graduates to do their jobs! They needed someone who could do the job well!!!" (Enormous whoops and laughter from audience)
    When I was younger I worked in a bank as a teller and I had to train college grads who had been recruited by the bank, but these grads werent going to become tellers, they were learning the ropes before they went into upper management. So I really doubt that part time pioneer had those Ivy league grads as co-workers, mostlikely those grads became his bosses. Josie

    Exactly right Josie,
