Yikes, that had to hurt. Well, I've been on both sides of that kind of talk and it's the mind-control. That's really how they see the world. You probably saw it yourself that way.

Good for you, that you're sticking to your guns. The only way he'll ever see the light is if you stand firm.
Technically, you cannot "return" to the world since you were never there in the first place. BTW I always hated that dog/vomit scripture.

Since my husband admitted that he doesn't believe some of the WTBTS teachings and yet he continues to go along with it anyway, I would say that him continuing to go is like a dog returning to the vomit.

I'm sorry cognac. I can't imagine having to deal with that in your own house. Did I see you say that you had only been married a short time? :(

sorry that your developing an inquiring mind is threatening to your spouse's sense of well-being
dont be scared off by that reference about what dogs do when they empty their gastric contents.... often it is a curative response, expelling irritants and toxins.... then a cherry picking selective retrieval of nutrients, a response to a survival drive.... it is NORMAL for that species.... it is impossible to correlate it to human behaviour... the scripture is ridiculous in terms of humans.... you ever see a person exhibit that behaviour????

Wow! Excellent response chickpea. So, when someone says that stupid scripture, you could respond: "That helps a dog get vital nutrients he would otherwise lose. Instinct is helping him to protect himself, kind of like what I'm doing here."
