Ahhh, this brings back such pleasant memories..the ever popular social slap down. I always enjoyed being invited to weddings at the KH but not being invited to the reception, where food, cake and other goodies were supplied to the spiritually strong. Good times!

Not invited to congregation “get togethers”. They finally said it
by solomon inwe don’t get many invitations to congregational social gatherings.
we don’t attend midweek meetings and miss about 1/3 of sunday meetings.
we go in service at least once a month.

Hello and Thank You!

i left the organization 17 years ago.

Is the elder visit the night before substantiated? I don't recall that being mentioned in the 20/20 piece. If that's true, that would have added even more motive and made for an even weightier circumstantial case. Was the elder who visited them called to the stand to testify?

I saw that piece last week. To be honest, I was somewhat torn about his guilt/innocense. He told the interviewer, "how stupid would I have be to take out an insurance policy 3 weeks before I planned to kill my wife?" as if to say, "I'm smarter than that". Plus, he made the point about having a 6 month old in the house, no way could he do such a thing. But, who else would have motive and commit such an empassioned killing. And, his demeanor was definitely suspect plus all those net lookups so I am leaning toward the jury got it right on this one.

The feeling of having real conviction in something larger than myself. A conviction that was so strong that giving up cigarettes and soap opera's was a piece of cake.
Also, the honeymoon/love bombing phase was fun while it lasted

I heard this same story circulating among JW's decades ago when I was still in. This is a repeat of the same story, maybe just a different location this time.
