My JW ex-wife turned out to be astonishingly violent. However, on one of those occasions when I was spotted with yet another black eye I received a visit from the elders who really helped by telling me that I needed to keep my wife in subjection. Thanks fellas, way to go.

Ladies and Gents.... Domestic violence!
by Theonlyoneleft indomestic violence in the “tooth”... is this a thing?!.
you are starting to know me by now as i’m always full of questions... my clogs are always in motion and never stop... so another question for you to give me some guidance if you can.
based on pasts experience or cases you might heard of or seen, what advice could you give me in helping someone that is a jehovah witness, married with another jw but lives a marriage that is plagued by emotional domestic abuse and financial control?

"Gem from the November 2019 WT. Reject apostate material because JWs trust in "their brothers."
by Daniel1555 indear friends.
i didn't post for a while, but i still enjoy the great jwn community.. just wanted to share a "gem" from the november 2019 study watchtower.. paragraph 8 from the article "are you maintaining your large shield of faith?".
satan, “the father of the lie,” uses those under his control to spread lies about jehovah and about our brothers and sisters.

For instance, apostates publish lies and distort facts about Jehovah’s organization on websites and through television and other media.
Let's take a moment to talk about Jehovah's organization by turning to the Scriptures and seeing what the Bible has to say about Jehovah's organization.
This could take a while...

Jehovah always used an earthly organization
by Reazon22 ini’ve always heard this line used by many witnesses.
but when i asked what organization was he using previously i can never get a response until recently.
i was told about a group called “the way”.

So weird...here to even get a shotgun licence you have to be squeaky clean and have no criminal offences against your name whatsoever. Then your doctor has to confirm that you're not even a teeny weeny bit crazy. Once that's all established you get a visit from the police to view the lockable steel cabinet in which you propose to keep the weapon.

If You Criticize A Person of Color Are You A Racist?
by minimus inseriously, it’s getting to a point that you can’t make a negative comment about someone without being charged as a racist, homophobe or sexist!
if you criticize a female, you are obviously sexist.
if you criticize someone who happens to be gay, you must hate homosexuals.

The good old days were much better for many kids. Today's over-parented little darlings know nothing about what constitutes an acceptable risk. The UK police are having a hard time recruiting millennials as they're appalled at the idea of shift work and/or any confrontation whatsoever. We've raised a bunch of scaredy cats.

I do recall as youngster going along to a JW friends house with my parents.. They were having a get together and pretty soon the beer was flowing, the wine was talking and a jolly time was being held by all. As the evening wore on, our host David produced his latest aquisition - a tape recorder! So we all messed around, refusing to believe that the voice being reproduced by the tape recorder was actually our own, But then - oh dear me - some sobersides suggested that we all read a chapter from the Bible out loud into the recorder and then played it back again for us all to listen to - twice. A double whammy! Great fun rapidly turned into boredom, but everyone nodded wisely and said things like "How wonderful" and how valuable a tape recorder might be at conventions. A superb evening quickly turned into a scrabble for the moral highground as platitudes were voiced and the beer bottles rapidly discarded.

A couple of gay friends whom I've known for over 20 years tell me that most of their problems arise, not from being abused by straight people but by extreme left-wingers of varying sexualities jumping on the gay bandwagon as a means of protesting about everything and anything. They're people who are only interested in furthering their own anti establishment agendas and, according to the gay couple, aren't doing them any favours at all.
