OK, here is the update on this situation.......
My wife and I drove home with no indication that much was wrong other than she was tired.
We got home and she laid down to take a nap during which i wrote the above thread.
Before she got up I started preparing dinner, and she walks into the kitchen with the look that I don't see very often. That stressed mad look that people get when you say something about their mother or father.
She tells me that she thought I was actually paying attention and that made her feel good. I was underlining the answers until she determined that I was not underlinging the answers after all but was picking apart the watchtower. She also made some statements that were totally supposition saying that even though I feel like her beliefs are crap...... Stuff that is totally not true I respect her beliefs.
She said some other things out of rage that were not true about the way i feel about things.
So, after that little outburst, I said let's sit down, very calmly.
i explained that there has been a huge elephant in the room for a long time and out of repsect for her I chose not to address it. But i am very happy that we were now about to address it. I explained that I know the pain that she is feeling because I felt the same pain when i found out some of things I now know about the WBTS.
I also explained somewhat tearfully about how i felt like this organization was going to be the death of my father due to the amount of stress that it puts on him, along with all of the other responsibilities he has. My mother also devotes most of her retirement to it ruining cars on these dirt roads here and using this time to promote a religion that may or may not be the chosen one.
I also was able to just touch on a few things that i have found in my research. Also brought her up to date on some of the recent changes coming down the pipline.
She of course tried to throw at me that Satan was just using these cunning arguments to deceive me. But I said to her what arguments? All I have looked at are the facts. I said there are documentation to prove these things. just the actions of the organization itself prove a lot of things. I also told her that the WTBS changes the watchtower after it is written when the bound volumes come out etc...
I could not tell weather any of these things caused her to think or appealed to her more, but she definitely was not zoning out when I was speaking with her, which was good. She also was not actively trying to refute every little thing i said.
She made a comment when it was over that she appreciated that i did not get upset when she confronted me.
I think some progress was made. I am going to give her Barbara Anderson's introduction to her new book to read and see where that goes. It really shows Barbara's credentials on the subjects she speaks about and see what I can cultivate.
At some point in time i am going to introduce her to JWD and I may or may not post under a different name so that she does not feel exposed.
Keep your fingers crossed. There was of course a lot more that we spoke about but maybe if you ask that right questions I will think of some more things to say later.
