Jehovah Witness

In a thread entitled "how did we meet our spouses mr or mrs right" a sister told a story of how she cheated on her husband and father of 3 kids with an alcoholic named. When her husband found out he put a gun to her head and threatened to kill her but she wasn't moved by that and eventually got a divorce. She is now married to Rick but he has no interet in being a Witness. Aftter reading that story sister had this response: "THAT IS SO COOL AND SWEET Lesile you are awsome". After reading that a brother have a very interesting question. Screenshots below.

Uh, not to condone everything this woman did, but you're leaving out the part about her husband LEAVING her before any of this happened!

Perhaps if only mature adults could marry, such juvenile behavior would cease. Holding a gun to someone is a serious crime. The Witnesses are very clear about acceptable moral behavior. Too many are only Witnesses to please family members.

Yes, that really is crucial to the story. The entire situation was due to the JW husband leaving his wife. The JW husband then assaulted the wife by putting a gun to her head. Yet the response by Gabe is typical of a JW. He blames and criticises the man that is not a JW, and the wife.

Welcome Jehovah Witness. Great name, though I wonder if you will want to retain it in the future. I look forward to you telling us more about yourself.

Oy. More convoluted logic. Her husband wanted nothing to do with her, she met someone else, when he found out he wanted back in. She refused, they went their separate ways and she's with someone else. Big deal.

As for the last comment about seeing someone you're not married to and thinking they're "hot", nothing wrong with looking as long as you don't touch. We're HUMAN fo crying out loud. We're not going to just look at our spouse the rest of our lives and NOT look at others. It's normal and natural...something the JW's know nothing about with all the rules and regulations.

Welcome Jehovah Witness ! love the name, it really pisses the JW's off when you drop the " 's ".

Rutherford paid for that apostrphe and the lower case "s" you know, and its been costing them paper and ink ever since !
