Definitely true. The last congregation I was a part of saw every teen kid disfellowshipped at least once for sexual matters. It was like a fregan revolving door. The other kid just left, never baptized. The greatest offenders were the elder's children. Sounds like your daughter, and her friends, were better at hiding it.

What Do You Know of JWs Getting Away With Stuff?
by minimus ini realized that teenagers and young witness adults were getting away with murder per my daughter.
she told me that all these exemplary young people featured at assemblies and conventions were not real good examples.
after she got married years ago to a “ worldly “ man, she told me about all the kids who were fornicating and getting drunk and high, including elder’s kids.

You only have one-third of the story for you have forgotten the 70 years of Exile and the land desolate for the Exilic period.
There is no requirement from Jer 25 for the seventy years to equate to that of exile and desolation; actually quite the opposite, as it's applied explicitly to many nations, and applied to the time of Jer 25 before the last exile. 2 Chron doesn't require it, nor does Daniel.
This has been covered ad nauseum - a plain grammatical reading of the scriptures fits perfectly fine with secular history. The WT's version of events is another story...

@scholar:
70 years of servitude, of many nations, as vassals. You're still wrong.

Based on current rap culture, which according to everything moral and good in the world, is the right way to view women, I'd say this shirt is basically a very positive message.

What Were You or Someone You Knew Counseled For That Was Ridiculous?
by minimus inback in the day, tons of witnesses were brought in the “back room “ to be counseled by elders because of their dress and grooming.
some elders frowned on mustaches or hair that went past a certain point on a male.
women were regularly harassed because their skirt was too long or too short or had a slit on the side.

I'll let you hazard a guess : rate, on a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 is super hot, the looks of both the waxer and the Karen.
And then deduce the likely motivation.

My wife's friend was counciled for getting a bikini wax.
It was only a big deal because a KH Karen overheard it in a conversation and felt that she had a duty to keep the congregation clean ... and hairy.

Another man-made holiday.
As opposed to..... a unicorn-made holiday?
But I do agree with the idea - we have too many holidays in general.

I suppose expressing a date correctly is another sign of "whiteness"?
