Oh, Will, ........Run and don't look back. My husband and I were in for our whole lives ( well, we're only 30, and 32 respectively) but we were "born into it". Your priority list would be different for everyone, unless it was to be turned in at the Kingdom Hall. Read the horror stories here about where THEIR priorities lie. Read the sections on experiences. Whether you get involved with them is of course your choice and your ultimate decision but don't make it hastily. The deeper you become indoctrinated, the harder it is to leave. There is an unwritten rulebook of a thousand pages of dos and don'ts. If your wife is new then she's receiving the shower of niceties that will soon end. At this point, you can get her out and get away from it.

Being newly OUT we are fascinated with all of these things that completely undo the woven lies we were taught . We have gone back to the beginning to try to piece together the truth and find out all of these "This Is What Really Happened" stories as opposed to continuing to build on a rotten foundation. Thank you for your research, and the time it took to prepare this and we will look forward to your future posts on this and other subjects. Brandon and Stephanie

Would YOU Have REALLY Died For Your Brother or Sister???

This was a question that I had from the time that I was little. You hear all these "amazing" experiences at assemblies or the hall , and the answer was always the same. No way!! What makes their life more important or more valuable than mine? I felt guilty for my reaction and never told anyone but it was always how I felt. Now that I'm out I look back and think, " Boy, I'd feel really stupid NOW if I had given my life for one of THOSE people."

When God becomes a Drug
by Will Power indid anyone watch dr. phil yesterday?.
they were talking about addictions, sex, pills, food - things that start out small, easily hidden, even socially acceptable - but then get out of hand and start controlling you.
then it becomes destructive, counter-productive and life threatening.

Is this a trick qustion? No, seriously, on the JW front, our parents have strict rules to follow regarding what not to do or say when they get the kids for a visit. They may not discuss our status,or tell the children that things we do (such as R rated movies or letting them play with guns now, or celebrating stuff ) are wrong. They may not pray for the children to "return to the meetings as Jehovah wants them to" etc........ These things have been done on previous visits and they have been warned that continuing to do so will result in NO visits at all. They also tried fishing for information on us which was NIPPED immediately!!! And they haven't tried that again. BUT had there been ANY serious abuse in the past, like when we were growing up, then NO FRIGGIN WAY!!!! They don't change . As a matter of fact you also have to add their age and impatience and irritability to the equasion. As adults get older, they're more grumpy, curt, and irritable. Our parents have instructions that they are NOT to raise their voices to the children , threaten them with punishment, or spank them.
and that's my two and a half cents!!!!!!!
