nowwhat?

Ever notice they feel the need to give the full definition and literally spell it out what a certain activity is? They can't just say lap dancing or masterbation etc.

Wait a minute here. If you go to a strip club and pay for a lap dance all you have to do is talk to a elder but if you look at nude pictures on the internet and masturbate you can be disfellowship? Am I understanding this right? They truly don't know their right hand from their left. Lol. Still Totally ADD

ttdtt

Still Totaly ADD - you have it wrong.
Was an elder for 20 years, and I never heard of anyone getting DFed for Porn, or wacking off.
The Flock Book also does not say that either.
I know a few elders who confessed to watching porn and stayed elders.

And talking to elders is not the final "repercussion" anything can happen from there.
Depends on the situation.

There was a CO meeting, and there is a BOE letter on this....

You can get disfellowshipped for watching the "wrong kind" of porn. Basically, anything beyond "vanilla" - homosexuals (including lesbians), kinks, animals, (to their credit) child porn, etc.

I don't know how often it has been used to DF anyone - it's a fairly recent development.

I don’t know that putting gay porn and illegal porn on a level is “to their credit”. Plus the letter didn’t mention anything about informing the police.

sir82

True.

I retract "to their credit", as the letter indeed makes no mention that possession of or viewing such porn is a felony.

The leaders of this organization get stranger and stranger with terminally weird subject matter in their WT articles. So true that the WT lunatics are running the asylum, because the WT lunatics ARE the asylum. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

NeedToKnow

Page 21, par. 13 - “The faithful and discreet slave” does not exercise control over the thoughts of individuals, and neither do the elders.
And they expect the publisher minions to actually swallow this???????

Unless you're been told to paint the KH with a 2" brush.

Seems like the GB is a group of old perverted men who get pleasure out of these discussions. Also, Matthew 12:34 For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

Seems like they have an abundance of sexual fantasies from the way they always talk about it so the best way to hide their desires is to condemn everything and elevate themselves.

You know, with the ''sentiment'' from the last 2 Regional Conventions, about trashing the trans-gender community, you start to think of what could be on some of the GB's minds. All this painting the trans-genders as angry and hostile. You really see what could be on their minds. You can always tell what thoughts an artist has is by his/her products.
