  last week we had the cos visit and i wanted to share my experiences with you.

  some background info on me, i knowttatt and am fully awake, my wife also knows my doubts and read a few things on the internet but she is still 100% commited to the truth, saying everything on the apostate sites are lies.

  so right now i am in just to keep the status quo.

  I don't think I could have taken that much time with the two COs even when I was fully indoctrinated. You have a strong stomach.

  like the title says....those of you who made it out with you husbands or wives.

  you people are so lucky!!!.

  lucky because your wife or husband isn't brain dead and can think and reason for themselves.

  I am really sorry to hear about your situation goingthruthemotions. I know it doesn't help a lot but you're not alone. Even for those of us whos spouse didn't wake up but also isn't a complete WT drone have had our relationship changed and aren't the same. It's painful and it hurts to watch a relationship get damaged or completely crumble over religion.

  Please hang in there and keep sharing your thoughts on the board because you're not alone. There are so many here that have lost so much - this can be a great place of sharing and healing.

  Run brothers run for the hills!!!! Those girls are trouble I tell ya!!

  Sex is not worth it!!!!

  Imagine the years and years of limited conversations about pretty much nothing!!!! nothing I say!!!!!

  discuss politics? NO

  discuss religion, besides how great we are? NO

  discuss world events, besides how bad they are? NO

  have a free flow of ideas and thoughts about life, love and God???? NO NO and NO

  Ok I think I need a whiskey and for the record I dated a lot of dub girls just like those back in my day and know of what I speak. Find yourself a moabite mama or canaanite cutie (bethel terms).

  JW EXPERT WITNESS FLOORED BY COMMISSION OF INQUIRY LAWYER

  by steve2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  much has already been written about dr monica applewhite, the expert witness hired by the jw organization.

  her job was to provide "expert" testimony to the australian commission of inquiry into jehovsh's witnesses' policies and practices on child sexual abuse.

  astonishingly, dr applewhite was unprepared for the inquiry lawyers' questions.

  The Assyrian started to attack from Australia

  by opusdei1972 in

  the gb has been preparing the flock for the assyrian's attack, that now is starting from australia:.

  elders, you can learn some helpful lessons from what we have just discussed: (1) the best thing you can do to prepare for the future attack of the assyrian is to strengthen your faith in god and help your brothers to do the same.

  (2) when the assyrian attacks, you must be completely convinced that jehovah will save us.

  last night and elder gave the bible highlights at the congregation.

  he talked about apostasy.

  and among other things he said: "report to the elders if you hear anyone in the congregation talking bad about the governing body".

  The more things like that get said from the platform the crazier they sound to newly interested ones. Even some (probably not many) long time dubs might feel uncomfortable with rhetoric like that.

  i don't know if a commercial will come up and i can't find this on youtube as it is probably copyright material or i am just not in a good search pattern today.

  anyway, try to view this if you haven't seen it:.

  I wish this issue never happened and I wish it wasn't the achilles heel of the witnesses - because this is a terrible terrible thing and no one should have to go through it. I hope the victims that have been silenced by their own doubts and fears or by elder bodies and family members find that they can come forward and be heard and get real help from trained professionals. And I hope that in the process the WTS goes completely bankrupt!

  I agree - let's turn the silent lambs into roaring lions!!
