    Welcome, Littlebird.

    We are happy you have come on board!!

    So sorry for your dilemma.

    You are probably nicer than I would be.

    I would say something like, "the generation that was alive and at an age of understanding will not pass away until all these things occur, nah nah nah nah nah!" and if he kept yelling I'd follow up with, the ones who died in Sodom and Gomorrah will not have a resurrection, yes they will, no they won't, nah nah nah nah nah! Vaccinations are like taking pus into the body, etc......

    Hi littlebird.

    My wife is in and I am out. I was never baptised but I had never opposed the religion. I thought that if there was such a thing as a true religion that, that was it. A few years ago I looked into it like you did. Once they see you with that Apostate hat on, it is damned near impossible to stuff it back into its box long enough for them to listen to anything you have to say.

    It is a difficult situation, but we are hanging in. It took her a couple of years to stop verbally attacking me.

    I don't 'tell' her anything any more, but I have asked a few questions without insisting on an answer. She knows I have a problem with 607 and that I can prove my point using WT litterature, She knows I have asked my father the same question and that he hasn't answered it. She knows that I think that their non-response is a very good indication that they are full doo doo, and she knows that if she attacks me on anything that I will just ask her for a king list .... again .... and she doesn't want to go there.

    Cheers

    Chris

    Welcome to JWN It is such a strain on everything when someone exits the JWs. When I first told my wife I was thinking of leaving she burst into tears and pointed to a beautiful picture on the wall ( a man and a woman walking through countryside) She said - I thought that was us in the new system! My heart was broken in 2 and I was not sure how things would pan out. After I had stopped going we had a sit down to discuss the matter - I showed her some of my evidence (UN, child abuse etc) 4 months later she stopped attending meetings. The key is to "try" and have a calm conversation about it - you never know - it might get him thinking.
