Judicial commities in Brazil

by gringojj in

i asked a similar question a couple days ago and the thread went off course.

my question is does anyone know how the wts hold is kept over the people in the rapidly growing areas of the world?

i would imagine the hold they have over the people there is less.

I wonder if they stone apostates to death in any countries i mean some rogue countries just dont care what you do if its not illegal do they do it?

Paradise is hell

my wifes biggest fear at this point is what if sheis wrong about the wts and they are really right.

i told her even if they are right or wrong it doesnt matter.

reason is she knows she would be miserable if she joined them.

By the way countrygirl you should pay attention to what you are reading. I didnt ask a question so i guess no that doesnt answer my question because i didnt have one.

Since we are being judged so harshly I will tell you that dss took away the kids over a year ago because my wife was still with the real father and he was beating my wife and they were almost homeless. So they went to a foster home. They were there for a couple of months until the grandma agreed to take them. She took them because at that time my wife was trying to get her life together and she and i were dating and we were headed in the right direction but we didnt have a place yet and we werent ready to take the kids back yet. So now we are married and have a nice apartment and income and things are good and in a very short time we will be getting the kids back again right now we only have them 3 or 4 days of the week. So thats why we are in this situation. The grandmother offered to take the kids from the foster home and she is paid monthly to care for them so it works out for everyone we are so very grateful she took them she is a kind person but my point was she listens to whatever the elders say. My wife told her it was a stupid idea today and she said "so you are saying Jehovah had a stupid idea?" The elders gave her the idea.

Question for elders

by gringojj in

i am trying to think of a good question to ask and elder that would be really tough for them to answer.

something hard to spin.

after alot of thought one good one i came up with is this.

Maybe I shouldnt be searching for reasons why we shouldnt believe them, but look for reasons why we should. I usually get a response to that. "Because we are the only religion that has real love amongst its people". What a load a crap.

I once asked my wife what would happen if everyone woke up tommorow and turned JW. Remember being a dub doesnt mean you cant sin. Theyre would still be plenty of sinners around. They would all have to leave political positions. No policemen. No firemen. Think of the anarchy that would spread throughout the world. She asked her study person this question. She said Jehovah would never let that happen. So does that mean he doesnt want everyone in the world to know and love him?

My wife has 2 kids that are not biologically mine that her mother has taken custody of until we are ready to take them back. She is wonderful for doing this for us otherwise they would be in a foster home so we are very lucky to have her. Now she is a faithful dub of 30 years and honestly these people use her as a doormat. Its just disgusting. She is a 50ish single woman who works sometimes as a home health aid. She has a small 1 bedroom apt that we made into a really small 2 bedroom so that she could have the kids there. We all barely get by moneywise. She works a couple days a week and my wife and I help out to pay all the bills for us and them. Its a situation that isnt perfect but its temporary and serves the purpose well. Anyways she pretty much does whatever the WTS says and lives her life strictly to thier teachings. Seems like shes always off doing something for cong members giving rides etc.(i even think she gives money sometimes which disgusts me because we dont have much and really need every penny). So we have the kids for a couple days and my wife was going to bring them back tommorow. Her mother tells her tonight that she has agreed to take an elderly cong woman into the apt for a little while so she can get rehabilitated. WHAT! I couldnt believe it. Apparantly she had the elders over and they all talked about it and felt it was a good idea! They are pawning this elderly lady off on her and she is so faithful that just because they said it was a good idea she is going along with it. Anyone who saw her place would know in 2 seconds its not big enough for 2 adults and 2 children. Its obvious that nobody else wants the responsibility of this woman so they make her do it because they know she wont say no. Never mind the fact that she will now have an elderly woman to care for in addition to the 2 kids. She lives out in the boonies and im sure there are plenty of dubs in better positions to take this on but they dont want to. Its just disgusting. I am so mad.

Thats a good question and i asked my wife would it be fair for Jehovah to kill people who couldnt have faith in the WTS after all the mess ups and scandals they have had? I mean honestly lets just say for a second he did choose them. He must be shaking his head in disgust at how bad they have messed things up and how they are a bunch of greedy people. They have disgraced him by speaking in his name yet giving his name a bad reputation. The fact that people are annoyed with them when they are walking up to the door and tell them to go away before they even have a chance to speak shows that they are not God's true org.
