    The magazine that they are studying in the congregation this month has an article at the back about how pornography in a marriage could damage the relationship.

    There's one piece of advice that sounds rather scary, the WT suggests that the couple should "consider asking an elder with whom you are both comfortable to sit in and guide your discussions for a time."

    How many of you would want an elder present in your home while you and your partner discussed your personal sexual cravings and the type of porn videos being watched?

    So stupid. Inserting themselves into things that are NONE OF THEIR BUSINESS.

    "Anything you say, can and will be used against you."

    How is this even a religious issue?

    I’m speechless to actually read that it is ‘suggested’ that a couple discuss with an elder about their sexual matters.😳 Is it any wonder that I have such contempt for them?

    I know Jehovah’s Witnesses, in general, are gullible people. But, anybody who listens to this has really checked their brains at the door.. And now, with very young elders being appointed, can you see the ridiculousness of this?

    What is the definition of pornography for them? Naked pictures or videos of one's spouse? Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues? Shows like Game of Thrones? So many ways to judge people there.

    sounds like that suggestion was written by a pervert who is projecting what he would like. ( because some of the "brothers" really get off on that sort of thing. There was a brother in a hall I went to who loved to give talks about sex. (some of it was more than R rated being talked about from the platform. )

    Yes, enough, many elders get their jollies off of judicial committees, and marital advising, etc.

    Am I to understand then that the WTBS is ok with porn as long as its not damaging to the marriage? Wow, that's pretty enlightened thinking for that bunch.

    Makes sense though considering they have equity holdings in PornHub.
