The Witnesses treat young couples like it's 1700's in England. You need a chaperon otherwise you'll jump on your girl and "spoil her virtue." Ridiculous crap, considering we are "God's clean spiritual organisation." Should I take a chaperon to the magazine store so I don't get porno? Or when watching cable T.V or going to the movies should I have a chaperon? What about those dirty worldly women, surely you need a chaperon when at work, your alone with them...maybe 2 would be better.

My Dating horror= You can't have coffee at the mall without a chaperon???
by Witness 007 inbeing a pioneer/servant for years, i thought i was very responsible.
when dating a sister whom i later married, i read every publication on courtship the society had.
i then spoke to an elder whom i thought was "resonable" and we agreed as the publications say: "a couple can meet together in a public place, when courting, without a chaperon.

Being a Pioneer/Servant for years, I thought I was very responsible. When dating a Sister whom I later married, I read EVERY publication on courtship the society had. I then spoke to an Elder whom I thought was "resonable" and we agreed as the publications say: "A couple can meet together in a public place, when courting, without a chaperon." So this is what I did...well, what a contraversy! Many brothers complained about thier dear Pioneer/Servant having coffee with a Sister at the mall without supervision!...Shock horror! The Shame of it all! My Elder bravely battled two others who told me we could not go anywhere without a brother present. {This is very hard to organise and lacks any privacy for a couple planning possible marriage} Apparently, leaving us to drink coffee at the mall would cause us to have pre-marital sex the first chance we get in a K-mart change room?? This whole thing really pissed me off since it made the Sister very uncomfortable.

Goodbye for now...
by R.F. inhello all.. first of all i wanted to say thank you for all the help i've received from you all in recent months.
my life has changed completed in such a short amount of time, and some of the things that have happened recently have finally just "hit" me as of late.
i definitely need to take more time to just stop and think, actually accept the changes, and adjust.

I like to use the correct terms for everything. Our belief's are called "Watchtower-palooza" if you want the correct definition.

My Cong- "Large Witness Gatherings are Banned!! And fancy dress? Why?
by Witness 007 ina year ago in my cong, an elder who must be hitler's love child, gets up and tells us how some brothers are planning a fancy dress party, a large social gathering.

"brothers a sincere christian would not attend such a gathering, we are warning you not to go near it.

Bluesbreaker: So, the only songs approved would be kingdom melodies?...and then a friend of mine would jazz up the kingdom songs tempo etc. but the Elders told him not to mess with "worship songs."

Imagine the seating arrangement, C.O and his wife D.O and his wife...Prince dressed like a pimp with two body guards. D.O turns to him and says: "Yo my man, can you did this funky info. it's sooo fly..." One of Prince's body guards shoots him for showing "dis-respect."

"In all the congregations let the women keep silent."
by senoj53 inat 1 corinthians 14:33-35 paul writes;.
"in all the congregations let the women keep silent, for it is not permitted for them to speak, but let them be in subjection, even as the law says.".
if in fulfilment of joel's prophecy god's spirit was poured out on both men and women at pentecost 33 ce giving them the ability to prophesy, why did paul say that women should keep silent?.

Jesus was married to Mary Magdalene...look at the painting closley...da vinci code!!! They chose this book to silence the girls. Remember in the bible when he's resurected and meets her at the tomb he says "STOP CLINGING TO ME, for I have not yet assended to my Father." Thats exactly what I say to my wife!

my mother sent this to me-
by Younglove1999 inso my mom sends me this to me and i hate these jw forward things- .
i want to have a good response when she asks if i got it- because i feel like it has nothing to do with jw's, just a coincidence.
i feel like she thinks i hate god, but it has nothing to do with him- it's the religion itself.

The kid prayed for a Witness family to adopt him?....If he had these "Pray powers" why didn't he pray himself and his parents to America...click your heels three times and say: "There's no place like Idaho..." I prayed everyday that I wake up living in the Bethsarim mansion but it never happened.

I Watched A Documentary On Jim Jones &The People's Temple & Thought of JWs
by minimus ini saw an unbelievable commentary on pbs last night about the reverend jim jones and his church.
the comparison to the witnesses that i was seeing reinforced that jws are truly a cult!
they are no different than the cultist in guyana.
