Hello!

by mikeypants in

jw
friends

wanted to say hello to you all.

i am new to the forum and just wanted to introduce myself.

i was raised a witness, never baptized (yay) and am married to a lovely baptized witness of jehovah.. i had been trying to get back into it due to both our families being j dbs but just never could get it into my heart.

Welcome to the board....it is a tough road. first question you need to ask yourself is: how much of a real JW is your wife? Having a kid could tilt it in either direction.

Good luck and make your stand now....later will be too late

remember....IT'S A CULT

Ongoing frustration with wife

by Flipping El in

i've tried taking the slow, patient approach with my wife.

i believe i first posted here about 13 months ago about my wife.. we've always had good communication and could talk endlessly about philosophy, neuroscience, sociology and then when i learned the ttatt, i clammed up a bit about spiritual things.

i'd always been fairly liberal, suggesting other alternative ideas, but then i told my wife about the un/ngo scandal (i ran across the guardian story doing a talk as an ms, lol!

If there were no faithful and discreet slave until 1919,then what would the witnesses say if you were to show them these scriptures?

revelation 1:1 a revelation by jesus christ which god gave him, to show his slaves the things that must shortly take place.

and he sent forth his angel and presented it in signs through him to his slave john,.

jude 1 jude, a slave of jeus christ .

my neighbor told me she had been talking about me recently.

"i was saying to carrie in the office i just don't see how anyone can deny the existence of a higher power.

she needed some q-tips, and found a box of them on the free table by the office.

I once hear at a district assembly...one dumb person speaking from the podium. he said..." Jehovah doesn't help those who help themselves, you would have faith if you don't believe." I was like WTF.....You my friend are a DUMBASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But, unfortuanately this is the attitude of all the JW zombies......that somehow magically Jehovah will provide without you getting off you ass and doing something about it. (LOL)

Me, I believe in hard work and dedication to being successful. Hard work is what get the job done!!!!!!!

Active JW who have not woken up are low IQ drones.

Thank Jehovah for Ipads!

seriously, i am so thankful that the org has officially allowed the use of ipads and tablets at the kingdom hall!.

it is the only thing that keeps me sane while sitting there....being able to log on to this site while pretending to follow along with the program!.

i think i would have literally lost my mind without this lifeline!.

My Parents have gone FULL CULT MODE! Having a job is SATANIC!

by BU2B in

jw
friends

to give a little background, my parents are in their late 50s.

around a year ago, my elder dad got laid off from his job.

he worked as a auto mechanic making ok money.

goingthruthemotions

BU2B: Here is my take....i am not sure of you employment or financial status. But, it seems to me that they may be setting up things so the could mouch off you. (sorry for the express)

I have seen many dubs do this....to me, it is kind of trend these day.
