yeah--i think it will be ok provided they dont eat together
( or each other )
hello all.. i need a quick answer, and also a solid reference in the literature, please.. if a jw marries an unbeliever, there is reproof, it's frowned upon, it's disloyal, there will be loss of privileges, etc, but there's no other more serious consequences.
but, in a scenario where two people are free to marry, but one is a baptized jw and the other is disfellowshipped / disassociated, what are the consequences?.
thanks for your help.. r..

what does jump the shark mean?.
the phrase “jump the shark” is a term in pop culture that originated from the tv show “happy days” and is used to describe a decline in quality.
it refers to the moment when a tv show or other product has reached its peak and starts to decline in quality.
i've been recently reinstated & am very happy about it.
i do love righteous (love & justice) and i do hate wickedness ( selfishness & sin).
i do love jehovah and the bible truths & wisdom.
hmmmn another single post then nothing. My troll vibe is tingling.
i know that a lot of historical names have claimed to be a god.
but, jesus arguably claimed to be god.
scripture says he's the creator.
Sea Breeze is not a "he". He said he is she in another thread.
Stan, I think you got me mixed up with someone else. Definitely a "he".
ah--buggerit--you got me trawling through your old posts to see where i went wrong.
But if you really are a bloke--the gloves are off now fella.,

- Vasectomies aren't a big deal anymore
was it ever ? News to me.
Back in 1984 i was considering that as a form of family planning--we had 3 kids--and that was enough for me. My born in 3rd gen extreme dub wife refused point blank to "permit " me to have it done. So--i reminded her we needed to use some form of birth control--to which she replied it was MY problem ! ( we had been jumping off the bus one stop early for most of our married life )
But we solved the issue a few months later--she divorced me !
if they have shunned me and chase me out of the house when i leave the cult, i would not give a damn.
i can still feel their love and concern for me even now.. though i have moved out voluntarily when i joined the army, i am afraid that the life i am living now will break their hearts.
i am now a bartender in a bar and am cohabiting with a woman.
HER dream..shattered.
Theres your answer.

Welcome back..didnt know you had left.
Happy for you for making your mind up.
Are you going to stay on here ?
often flicking through watchtower bound volumes i would see pictures of eden which shows the snake in the tree of knowledge with legs??
even the photo drama of creation shows a snake with legs.. watchtower 1964 p.352 "genisis 3;14 {snake}on your belly you will go and dust you shall eat...before god curse it the snake had legs, that elivated it above the ground...god transformed it's body so that it ceased to have legs and was able to move on it's belly.".
god's eternal purpose 1974 "god did not put a curse on the whole serpent family...it had only been victimized by satan.. forrest gump watchtower science is price-less!.
i get confused:
are Adam and Eve symbolic or literal ?
and how about the walking talking snake ?
