    Thanks for that Yknot.

    Any chance you could repeat your magic and let us have a scan of Kingdom Ministry for November?

    Was in a QFR about 2 years ago as well. August issue rings a bell but not certain on that. I remember being shocked that you (I) could be disfellowshipped for it!!

    Just read that BOE letter and it's the same but a bit more detailed on the proceedure and consequences.

    Cheers

    So there are different types of porn that the BOE can remove an MS or Elder? lol

    Quote:

    Further, viewing hetero-oral or anal sex (on a video or computer), while certainly unclean, is not to be considered "gross" or "judicial," though it may lead to removal as an elder, a ministerial servant, or a pioneer depending on the frequency and when it last occurred. With regard to viewing oral (or anal) sex of a homosexual or group nature, this is more serious. However, it would still not be considered uncleanness of a "gross" nature meriting judicial action, but likely would result in removal from an appointed privilege of service.

    What the heck?

    Quote:

    Additionally, if following the Kingdom Ministry School the elders judicially reproved a brother for viewing forms of pornography that may not have merited judicial action, the decision should stand.

    Talk about CYA, never admit you were wrong and reverse a decision?

    So, wink wink, hetero porn is not as bad? I guess girl girl porn is the same level as hetero, but homo porn no way! What about trannys? They really need to clarify this. I can hear it now, brother calls the service desk because they read the letter, but aren't sure if a chick with a dick screwing a girl is considered hetero or lesbian porn?
