Is it common for old men to marry young JW?
by adjusted knowledge ini left in the 90's and marriage partners were similar in age at my former congregation.
i ran into a former jw friend from my childhood.
i haven't seen him in 15 years.

There's a couple in our no longer hall where an elder husband is a good 20 years older than the wife. Been married close to 20 years now aswell.
More recently a friend of mine from another hall, same age as me, around 29/30 has married a woman old enough to be his mum. They seem very happy. It's interesting to note though that she was dfd a few years ago for sleeping with a 21 year old from the same hall!
Also my wife is 3 years older than me, but that's just to make up for the higher life expentancy of women in the UK ;)

Once after a service group I ended up calling an elder a dickhead as he had been very unchristian towards me and others for months for handing our reports in a couple days late. I'd had enough and blew my top a little. Some were shocked, other's laughed. Needless to say he was sweet as pie from that point on. -

Sums up the kind of ass that put this site together.

God's Inception Style Punishment of Toddlers
by Simon inthis is a follow up to jehovah kicks a puppy about the garden of eden / serpent myth and the punishment for disobeying god.. anyone who has had kids knows that that they need to be taught what is right and what is wrong.
it's no point trying to discipline them if they have't learnt the rules first - they simply and fundamentally don't know something is wrong so punishing them in anyway is just asshole parenting of the worst kind.. i.e.
toddlers draw on the wall, that's what they do.

The Bible requires it's readers to go 'beyond what is written' for it to make sense in many of its passages. -

What bad habits have you picked up since leaving the Borg.
by James Mixon ini went back to smoking and gambling but the good habits out weigh.
the bad ones, like lying to people.
is't fraud against the law, the practice.

The only 'bad' thing, if you want to call it that, is taking up playing the lottery, other than that most things have changed for the better. I drink less (not that I drank too much) and I've been going back to the gym lifting weights for the first time in 2 years. This has always been a passion of mine and since the kids arrived and all the jw stuff I rarely had time. I feel much healthier for it! -

What Things Did You Not Talk About as a JW?
by minimus inyou have to lead a secret life as a jw.
you're not supposed to over drink, go to night clubs, enjoy worldly concerts, etc.....sex, though is really taboo.
you could never freely talk about your sex life.

My wife and I had a select group of friends where pretty much anything went. We'd go our get drunk, swear till the air turned blue, ate too much and basically just had a completely carefree, fun time. Other than whether we could be bothered to go to the meeting the following day we never discussed jw stuff at all.
Funny enough the least wittoy jw is now an ms who still goes to casinos and smokes the occasional cigar and the rest of us are out thank fudge!

For now I guess.
We also live in a fairly small community and have been amazed at how little we've been bothered by elders and others from the hall.
