so i have gotten into arguements with my wife in the past about this cult.
now a days after reading steve hassan books...i just try and avoid anything jdub with her.
try to keep her in authentic mode..(not sure she really has one).
Thanks everyone for the comments...i do agree, that the faith without works is one of the manipulative things the dubs use to control the sheeple.
it's such a sad thing to see when you wake up and learn TTATT. very frustrating.

anyways...when we have gotten in fight she will come up with the words. "faith without works is dead" i know where the phrase comes from.
she uses this to pertain to going out in circus and going to meetings. " i would like my response to be...well shat about all the christians who help the poor and feed the hungry. arn't they doing fine works:
what scriptures could i use to back this up about chritians helping the poor and others less fortunate.

i just barfed in my mouth.
i have been wondering lately if guy pierce did not approve of all these changes like jw broadcasting, the new jw kingdom halls and the direction that they are currently moving in.
i know that some changes happened while he was alive but a lot of these changes seemed to be pushed right after his death..
for example, jw broadcasting almost sounds like it was rushed out within 2 months.
when i joined the cult....a short 6.5 years ago it was bad...but it has gotten exponentially worse in the last 2 years. it has put a new diffintion on what a cult is.

i met an aging, well, late sixties, pioneer sister a few days back, from a congregation four removes away, and a different circuit to my old congo.
i have known her since i was a kid.. i wasn't quite sure at first if she knew our "status" as we exchanged pleasantries, but it soon became clear she knew exactly our situation, that we walked away a few years ago.. she asked me about my views on life now, and listened respectfully, and said she appreciated my view, but a couple of questions that she threw at me, as in the thread title, showed that she was surprised that mrs phizzy and i had not gone off the rails after we left.. the mind control goes so very deep does it not ?
she was surprised that our marriage hadn't failed, and that we were now happy.. i wonder if she will ever make the connection that the jw org has lied to her about those of us who leave ?.
i wish i could say or predict the same..my wife has already told me she will choose the Borg over me. it's only a matter of time before my situation comes to a head. she will be praised for her dedication, while the washtowel destroys another family.
i have already started councelling for this enivetible crash course. it's suck seeing the llights come down the tracks and you just cant jump off.
i truely hate this cult.
it is the worse mistake of my life.....if i could turn back time!
