    Yes. I wrote and asked, Respectfully I ask, please tell me: Which does Jehovah hate more, A divorce or spousal abuse?

    They responded, "Both are willful sins that can result in a person losing his relationship with Jehovah" . . .etc, but that was the whole jist of the letter, about what can happen when one loses such.

    I flipped! and wrote back: "Excuse me please, but you say . . .>the above<. . .without knowing the circumstance, do you see a problem with that? A Christian wife is abused by her husband for 27 years, she finally files for divorce and leaves him, and is abused further by her congregation and family. So again, respectfully I ask you, Which does Jehovah hate more, A divorce or spousal abuse?" They didn't respond, but sent the local elders to our house, who then emailed me: Is this your letter, is there an abuse problem in your home?" I couldn't believe it.

    (Our other sister actually saw her in Costco and accused her of adultery and screamed at her " Jehoho hates a divorcing!")

    My friend Shepherd Book has posted about his correspondence with the WT Society, trying to get accurate answers about the Bible's Flood Account, and the trouble it got him:

    While still in, I wrote a letter asking a question. I don't remember what it was, but they never responded.

    Later, I wrote again asking a different question. This time I enclosed a contribution. That time I got a response!

    Unbelievably, my faith in the bOrg wasn't shaken a whit by it. I was a true believer idiot.

    Gopher, I just rolled through the link you provided about the Watchtower letters on the Noah's Flood bit. Wow, that was some serious research. Thanks for that link!

    I once received a rejection letter related to my Application to beth-HELL. Maybe I was too old? I was 19...........
