i do not "get it" what does marriage have to do with anything????? i don't understand their thinking??

Lady Liberty

Everyone has posted a lot of good points..one thing is for sure...they organization has an AGENDA!!

I just wonder if they highly discourage ones from getting married, it would leave alot of young people being encouraged to go abroad to preach no doubt. I believe they are losing so many here, mainly in in part because of the Internet..they need more workers to go to poor countries to do converting where they don't have the Internet.

Ultimately it is all about control and money!

I wonder why old Charley was so afraid of sex?

Maybe he caught a look at himself in the mirror.

Also..they are now saying NOT to record any of the talks from the assemblies!!! They went on and on about how if you want to listen to a talk from a convention you must go to the official JW website and download it from there!! They said that "Spiritual foodeeds to come from the PROPER PLACE!!"

Heh-heh-heh....Me thinks I just might be going to a one day ASSembly soon and recording this crap speer-ut-chual foooood for all to hear.

As for them discouraging marriage, well......that's one area that virtually no one listens to. As LL already said: You can't masturbate, fornicate and now they don't even want you to get married?? Riiiight. That always goes over well with 18 year olds with raging hormones. I remember when they tried pulling this crap in the late 1980s. They were whining about how Noah and his sons, while married, didn't have any children as they were too freaking busy building the Ark, and how the youth today would be wise to follow their example. Needless to say, no one paid any attention to them and Witlesses still continued to get married. I figure they'll try promoting this nonsense for a couple of years and then put it on the back shelf to use in another 25 years down the road.

Assholes.

I personally believe the WTS is getting more and more afraid of the government. You know they believe it's going to turn on religion any day now and they'll get caught in the backwash. That's when Jehoover will step in and save the day by killing everyone who was mean to them or didn't listen.

That'll teach em to turn the hose or sic their dog on me! nyah!

It would be wonderful to have "King Rehoboam" rule this sick cult. You keep driving and harrassing people until they finally collapse or rebel.

Don't get married

Get off Facebook

Don't go to college

Don't record any meetings

Don't watch porn

Don't masturbate

Don't do drugs

Don't smoke

Don't do oral sex

Don't fornicate

Don't criticize the elders or GB

Give us your money

Don't leave the assembly to buy lunch

I would absolutely LOVE IT if that genius Loesch ever bans watching American football

When does this nonsense end? Even if outright rebellion doesn't happen, you may get many Witlesses simply tuning it all out. Like whatever, man.

Chalam

1 Timothy 4:2-4 (New International Version)

2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. 4 For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving

Blessings,

Stephen

I thought this was kind of close to that, not an outright ban, but I can only think of two sports that resemble this comment ...

>> From the 2006 book 'Jehovah's Day' chap. 9 p. 121 par. 19 <<
Ask also, ‘Would [Habakkuk] set aside time to be a spectator at so-called sports events that are violent by design, players even wearing protective armor like that of ancient gladiators?'

mindmelda

Habakkuk would have thought football was a folk dance compared to the violence he was used to. LOL

Yes the WTS is pretty much the NO FUN ZONE.

The Puritans could have taken lessons from how to be a tight ass from them.

cyberjesus

Not getting married? I am all up for it!

mindmelda

Yeah, but that goes along with no sex of any kind. Priests get more action than a JW single pioneer.
