Divorcing my husband of 13 years...

by 2pink in

friends

my husband and i were both born ins.

i left in 2009, and he followed me out a bit later.

we were one of those couples who followed the script, married young and ended up having nothing in common other than the religion.

LisaRose,

You all are not 'evil apostates'; just disobedient runaways that make their existance an otter mess and then come here to unjustly vent and blame the very people that would've saved you a whole lot of problems should you have followed their biblical counsel.

Then, of course, I must admit that among this group there are a few that were truly victims of predators. Well, the predator kind exists in every group, even in many families regardless of their religious affiliation. It's a humanity problem, really.

The truth often hurts, this is way we tend to avoid it even if it's for our own good.

Failure

so tonight just sucks ad i just want to vent to people who don't know me irl.. my wife and i have two kids.

i was still in when we got together but my wife never was.

when we actually got married i moved out of my parents place and never went back to a kingdom hall again.

Backformore,

"My wife and I have two kids. My wife has really gotten baby fever. This just sucks!"

Wow! You guys' cognitive dissonance is as bad as a JW stuck inside! Do you not realize the problems you're creating for yourselves, your lives, your marriage, your kids???!!!

The massive amount of stress, disappointment, financial stress, a mess, a total and all over mess!!! All manufactured by your troubled selves!!!!!!!!!!

What is this vicious cycle I observe on several posters of this board? It appears that not until their lives is made a horrible mess, by their own making, are they really content! WOW!!!

Unbe-freaking-lievable!!!

Hey, how about reading the topic on that person that's divorcing her husband of 13 years; look it up by clicking on 'Active Topics'. Perhaps by reflecting on the fact that this can be your situation down the line if you keep up this craziness may help you in someway.

Go to a shrink, a social worker , a marriage counselor, your pastor, whomever; you all need help, but not the kind you're searching for.

This "baby fever/biological clock/baby envy" women go through can be waited out as it goes away with time. It's a biological thing with the woman's body and psyche; having a baby is not the solution. Very possibly this very thing exacerbates the problem.

May you and your family find happiness and conformity in your current situation, in what 'is' and not what 'could be'.

Ohhh dear.......

"Born ins", huh? But, definitely not practicing what taught as "he's an alcoholic". Hmmm......

"Three of our kids are adopted, special needs", huh? Hmmm....... Ever gave any thought about the consequences of complicating you life/adding this kind of stress to your life/marriage?

Ohhh, the difficult situations/problems we create for ourselves......

Well, you've come to the right place to vent and blame; this board will surely help you put the blame wrongly on the Org and its people.

Enough Fun... We'll E-Talk Again Soon.

my professional life allowed me a bit of time off plus some breaks here and there to hang out here and have a little fun e-dropping my 2 cents worth more often than necessary.

however, i'm approaching quite a busy period ahead, so don't miss me too much, okay?.

look up all my previous posts and reflect on it; letting your ex-jw rut ruin your present life is such a waste.

In the best words of Mitt Romney.... "No Apology"

Until my next break..... C ya!!!

Happiness is where you find it.

What's the future of Buddhism in China-2?

by fulltimestudent in

how involved in chinese community life is contemporary buddhism?

that's a question i've set out to explore as part of my participation in a study unit at sydney university, named india, china, tibet: cultural relations.. in the september 10 issue of the chinese people's daily (english web edition) there's a photo story entitled:.

chinese buddhist canon blesses hong kong.it follows the efforts of h undreds of sanghas and buddhism believers carrying 103 files of the chinese buddhist canon walking along victoria harbor, kowloon, hong kong on sept. 8, 2014. they hope to spread love, intelligence and mercy to every corner in hong kong to solve disputes and promote stability.

Gustv Cintrn

I must come clean about something.

One of these days I found myself fantisizing about dying then finding out that Buddhism is the true religion and that one gets to come back (reincarnate?) in different life forms over and over again.

Truth be told, this sounds way cooler than the JW paradise forever earth. It really does!

My fantasies are horrible. Totally anti-JW. I know.

W85,

Congrats. The average Hispanic JW, specially the older folk affiliated with the Org for many years really don't give a crap about that stuff. I've tried bringing it up in conversation and their reaction goes something like: Well, that is the GB's decision and they don't act without the guidance of the Holy Spirit of Jehovah, so we shouldn't be concerned with it; if it's wrong, they'll be responsible before God.

Good old 'party affiliation' at its best; we don't care. We really do not care!

A question for the Trolley & Cosmopolitan Witnesses

by The Searcher in

ask them why not one scripture states that christians were instructed to be "witnesses of jehovah".. when they get flustered and tongue-tied because they cannot cite a single verse from matthew to revelation to back up their scripturally false "designer label", inform them that there are at least 30 scriptures which clearly show show that christians are to be witnesses for christ, not god!.

(isaiah 62:2) and you will be called by a new name, which jehovahs own mouth will designate.. (acts 11:26) ..........in antioch that the disciples were by divine providence called christians.. .

(matthew 10:18) ....before governors and kings for my sake, for a witness to them and the nations.. (mark 13:9) .......be put on the stand before governors and kings for my sake, for a witness to them.. (acts 1:8) ...........you will be witnesses of me in jerusalem, in all judea and samaria...... (john 1:15) john bore witness about him,.

Gustv Cintrn

Yet another 'cult' beating us? Damn it!!!!!!!!!

Hey, btw, us moderate/ultra-lib JWs don't really conform to silly dogma like the use of "good luck", "fortunately", "bless you", etc.

Eeeeeeeasy now....

These numbers are probably a hoax played on the Org. The territory my cong covers is burnt out! The same is heard of all other surrounding territories.

Perhaps the numbers come from countries abroad. I doubt if these are real USA numbers.

Then again, provided we are the true religion livind at the end of this system, as the Org claims, the Bible does say that God will increase his earthly organization in numbers towards the days of the end. Could this be evidence of a prophecy coming true?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........
