How pathetic....

the same goes for the "how to present the magazines..." section of the km.. i just cringe when i think about those silly little talks i used to give (sitting, of course!

Question I haven't seen yet
by Descender inthis is my first post, i've been reading the board for a few months now and i must say it's rather addicting.
anyway, back to the topic of my post.

"Inquiring Minds Want to Know"
by sandy inone chapter details how the governing body decided that certain conduct between husband and wife in bed would be grounds for divorce and disfellowshipping (formal excommunication and shunning).
after the edict was issued (the watchtower december 1, 1972, pages 734-736) numerous marriages broke up as a result.
