Yeah Cognac, I think your "spiritually weak" like me.
Jehovah's Witness wives do not need consciences.

COGNAC- Any husband in his right mind would say YES! If it were my wife, I'd tell her, " Honey, your weakness is my strength ! Carry on ! " Peace out, Mr. Flipper

The JW doesn't have a "conscience." Rather, he/she has a "bible trained conscience." Since the JWs wrote their own bible, it follows that the JWs actually have a Watchtower trained conscience. For the JW, conscience is just another term for brainwashing.
If JWs actually had consciences, they wouldn't be able to treat others the way they do, especially not their own family and lifelong friends who decide to leave the WTS. And they wouldn't be able to neglect their "worldly" family members. Cats treat their kittens better than JWs treat their families.

When I was in and married to a brother, I showed him respect most of the time, unless he was being an a$$. But I had my own conscience. I did what I felt was right or wrong. I never allowed him to push me around like I was a child with no rights.
When I stopped going to meetings, I started raising my kids as I was raised. This was because the husband never went to meetings unless I got everything ready: the kids, the bookbags, the clothing, including his own. When I got too ill to do that anymore, guess what? No one went. He did not take the kids to the meetings or service. He never studied with them. But he expected them to live as staunch JW's. That just wasn't fair or wise. I let my daughter go to the prom, all that stuff. So husband made threats all the time about divorcing me. He finally contacted a lawyer, trying to scare me into submission. I called his bluff.

"Husbands, I think have a lot more pressure. I'm glad I'm not being pressured constantly to give all these talks and other assignments."
True, and a lot pressure leaving. At least if one is an elder it is nearly impossible to fade.

The title of this thread showa beyond doubt why the wts and many religions are wrong. Any religion or organisation that seeks to subjugate a women is empirically wrong. It is so totally wrong on any level. There is not argument that can be put forward to support it

This subjucation of women? I know people who aren't religious who buy into this men are superior crap. Men are just bigger and stronger physically in most cases, so they have run the show since humankind began.
