Coming Out With Pride & Confidence!

i have only been visiting this board for a couple months, but wow, how it has helped me!

thanks to everyone who has shared information and their stories, given advice, listened, reasoned, confessed, vented, cussed, challenged and supported.

i am formerly known as "hunyadi", but i made the decision to come out a few weeks ago.

WoW!!! Good for you!!! Brandon and I , of course, understand the need for annonymity for some, but CHEERS to those who they can't hurt anymore!!! They are still terrorizing soooo many that have left their clutches.

I think that one reason apostates have such a sinister stereotype is because of the masked identity of most. If we ALL come out and openly, AND publicly oppose them, we as a whole might be more effective. Whattya think?

if you knew that the policy was that there would be no more witchhunts, no more disfellowshippings or shunning of any kind, would you be tempted to go back?

but, then again,

it might be fun to mess with them from the inside

we picked ours because,

there are 2 of us

we have Escaped the borg intact with our two boys, and

we were Lifers: born into it, and did the whole MS married Pioneer song and dance ( unfortunately this also meant that we made all Life decisions based on their b*llsh*t.)

Marital Status after Armageddon

by robhic in

what's the deal regarding marriage and marital status after the "big 'a'"?

i was once referred to mat 22:29 where jesus says that resurrected people will be like angels and neither marry or be given in marriage.

but that doesn't cover all the possibilities.. i have also read (but a search doens't give me what i need) that those married couples surviving the big a will remain married in the new system.

This was one that always plagued us as well. When we broached the subject with anyone after doing our own extensive research, we were given the "pat" answer that "we can be assured that Jehovah will make everyone perfectly happy" and "not to worry about it."

Love it.
