Do you still Pray?
by Dustin insince i stopped being a jw i haven't prayed.
so the other day i went to supper at my parent's house who are still jw's, and they prayed before we ate.
it was a very strange feeling, and it stirred up alot of weird feelings.

I do! And even if I didn't believe in God, I would... like Narkissos. Maybe there's a God in each of us...

SOOO!!! The witnesses want the whole world to know about the good news.... BY HIDING THEM?
I agree with b12: their attitude is like shooting their own foot.

I don't know much what to say, just my 2 cents:
- I don't think he's being as honest to you as you are to him!
Some (many?) witnesses act totally different when they're among their peer witnesses and when they think they are in a "worldly" ambience. The fact is, they try to appear "normal" to non-witnesses, but in fact they hide their true self.
He's probably afraid of the congregation's response when they find out what happened! He will be on his way to disfellowshipping (which means the witnesses won't even TALK to him anymore) and is possibly looking for a way to get away with it lightly.
For good reasons he has been hiding many things from you: because if you knew better about the witnesses' cult, you would not give him any chance! For instance: witnesses oppose blood transfusions, even in situations where they may be the only chance of survival. Witesses oppose higher education in Universities. Witnesses say that the celebration of birthdays, Christmas, new year, Easter, Valentines, etc. is derived from pagan and demonic sources... Can you imagine what your life will be like after he opens up to you and tells you what he REALLY believes?
The real problem lies nowhere in living together. Or in divorce and remarriage. I guess no one here believes that God requires people to be imprisoned in a bad marriage. The problem is: your life is probably going to turn into hell if this guy intends to marry you AND keep his beliefs as a witness.
Get informed! Your life is on the line!
Otherwise, I truly hope it'll all end well for you.

((((Brenda & Lena)))))
My Girlfriend's nephew had the same problem. He was a baby, though. Doctors said that after the operation he could be a little retarded OR very intelligent. There was no way of predicting. Fortunately, the latter turned out to be true.
These are the times when a prayer comes in very handy! We're all praying for you!
