    Would it be possible to get this confirmed, by others, that this was actually contained in a resolution.

    I can confirim that something along those lines was mentioned in the resolution. My DC was last week and i remember thinking what a weird resolution, i didn't say AYE, if i had i would be quakeing in my boots at the very thought of me being on here

    The internet is harming the interests of an organisation that wants tight controls over information control, precisely because it makes information freely available. That's just what the FDS doesn't want and they will continue to lose members that found enlightment there.

    But as for losing elders and MSs to internet porn I don't know how they came to know what they were up to while surfing on the net, perhaps the wives turned them in.

    Apparently....as wives were mentions as having part in the "uncovering of wrongdoing"

    As far as the resolution, I have a recording. I want to get these convention recordings ready for some posting.

    Here's stupidity in action: Repeat after me, I will not think about sex, I will not think about sex, I will not think about sex.

    The more you repeat it, the more obsessed you are. The more they warn against internet porn and chat rooms, the more obsessive

    it all becomes.

    Ambrose Bierce once defined "demon rum" as a drink "that causes madness in total abstainers". That principle applies here.

    How completely pathetic they are! No longer challengers of the existing world, they lower themselves to promise to

    avoid simple compulsions!

    How simply wonderful that "Jehovah's loving organisation"™ provides us with a banquet of fine spiritual food!

    Wasn't it simply the best convention we've ever attended?

    So, what was the "fine spiritual food?"

    Oh, we had a resolution that said we don't view internet porn.

    That's "spiritual food"?

    Well.......that's what the "loving brothers" tell us, so it must be true....isn't it? Well, isn't it?

    Glad they ratted out the elders..........telling us what they have fallen prey to.........

    I can't help but to think the constant supression has brought their "weaknesses" to the forefront.......they probably just wanted something very normal and thought it was wrong and now they think anything they want/desire is so bad it has to be labelled "porn"

    but like I said.........good on them for "ratting out" their brothers and friends

    What bugs me about the whole thing is they never seem to want to get to the real root of problems......just get rid of the behaviour and all will be fine.

    Oh I suppose all pro-JW message boards and posters will just vanish overnight now... *eyeroll*. I hope all the paranoia has got some of those who aren't afraid of the Big Bad WWW curious enough to come here and see what all the fuss is about.

    What was the new release?

    Really? A resolution not to research JWs on the internet? Funny! I figure, resolution or not, those who would do it will do it anyway, and those who wouldn't do it still won't do it. It changes nothing.

    Could someone print out the resolution, please?

    I will print it out when I have a chance to get the recordings together. On an MP3 player now.
