I'm pretty sure that's why my JW momma never re-married, despite having 4 proposals.. She wanted to be available for my dad after the resurrection even though conventional marriage would not be reinstated.

Myriads and Myriads of Angels ... What Do They Do?
by RubaDub ini never understood this in my entire life in the borg.. who knows how many angels there are, millions, billions?.
an angel protected rahab when the walls of jericho fell.
then one angel killed 24,000 one night.. yet there seems to be this paranoia in the borg like the bunker video and the field video where jw's are under attack and apparently alone or at least it appears alone.. can't a few angels be put on overtime and protect the brothers from the potential "authorities" that wish to harm or eliminate them?.

I asked my wife what she thought that angels did all day long.
She looked at me in that pitying manner that ladies do only too well.
I persevered and eventually she said: Oh dear. It's so obvious. Everyone has a guardian angel. That's what they do all day. They keep you safe.
I hope she's right.

What was the last thing you said to your jw family?
by caves in7 years ago i had my last conversation with the toxic jw that mostly raised me.
every conversation was toxic for my entire adult life with her.
the last time we spoke was right before the memorial 7 years ago and she was laying on the usual heavy guilt and fear mongering about how jeho counts his people at the memorial.

I said that if I thought they had the truth then I'd be a witness. As I didn't believe in it, any affiliation was pointless. My parents accepted it.
However, some years later, when another JW asked the old "Will you turn back to Jehovah" line, I responded in the same vein to which she exclaimed "Blasphemy!" and stalked off.

Why does Jeremy Corbyn (an atheist) say he's against racism but hangs out with the Jew-haters of Hamas and Hezbollah?
It's worse than that: https://freebeacon.com/national-security/labours-jeremy-corbyn-face-u-s-sanctions-dealings-hamas/

France's niqab ban violates human rights, UN panel says
by Richard_I inhttps://www.cbc.ca/news/world/france-ban-islamic-veil-niqab-human-rights-united-nations-1.4874465.
“the un human rights committee said tuesday that france's ban on the niqab was a violation of human rights, and it called on the government to review the legislation.. france had failed to make the case for its ban, the committee said, giving paris 180 days to report back to say what actions it had taken.
the panel's findings are not legally binding but could influence french courts.. .

Can't we ban the odious Ms Winkleman until such time as she cuts off that god-awful fringe?

Do you remember this?
by Gorbatchov inwhen g. was a litle kid, remembering the watchtower study at age 9, hearing all the stuff, the paragraph, the questions, the answers, about topics i could not understand, so it became so abstract that it was not entering my ears and brains.
it felt that i was no part of the group, someone alone on a distant planet.. do you remember this feeling?.

Mom, what is heavy petting?
Everything but full sexual intercourse. We all believed back then that you could only be disfellowshipped for full sex. Oral was fine as was mutual masturbation. Nobody ever said anything different.

How Effective Are Anti-JW Internet Sites?
by minimus ini think that once you get on the internet and you see evidence that shows jehovah’s witnesses do not have the real truth, it can jolt you.
but i don’t think simply going on an internet site typically changes a person’s direction—even if the information is very damning toward the witnesses.
i think it takes time to eventually get out.

I'm inclined to believe that many would-be leavers are tempted out because they no longer have the fear of being totally alone and of feeling abandoned. Meet-up sites such as this compensate in some part for the impact of disfellowshipping. The WT can never have imagined prior to the internet that DF'd persons would find a way to communicate so easily with one another.

How about visiting a gay baker and asking for an iced slogan stating that Sodomy is a mortal sin?
This whole thing has nothing to do with gay rights at all but everything to do with freedom of conscience.

Excellent.
