In my neck of the woods, JWs with few worldly goods seem to live in certain suburbs. Then you get the JWs with ever increasing riches - they live in different suburbs. And never the twain shall meet.

21JW.. a Broke A$$ Loving People.
by Confucious injust telling it like it is.... so you have the mormons.. like there are a lot of rich mormons.
mitt romney being one of them.. then there's the scientology people.
yes... also an alternative religion like jw and mormons.. like there are tons of rich scientologists in tom cruise world.. and i know that in jw there are some wealthy people.. but i tell you, in jw the overall feel is that being poor is glorified.. my experience is there is a ton of descrimination in the organization.

Tommorrow's Daily Text - this made me so mad!!!
by breakingfree inwell lets get off to a good start for the year by using jesus to justify staying with your abusive husband:.
thursday, january 3. when [jesus] was being reviled, he did not go reviling in return.
when he was suffering, he did not go threatening.-1 pet.

How many JW women would have stayed with their abusive husbands over the years because of stupid comments like this. And in the meantime also subjecting their kids to an unhealthy environment.
Makes me mad too!

Wendy, congratulations for making the break. It doesn't matter what your age - it's never easy to do this and 8 years is a long time.
If he has moved on - that's probably better for you. It's made you angry so you are less likely to go back.

Horrible Apostates fall into Jehovahs Trap
by Jim Dee inas you guys are probably aware, the new watchtower for studying has shed new light on the generations issue (ie whoops we got it wrong, we were right before) .
the co's here in aus have been briefed to inform the congregation (either formally or informally) that is is part of the cunning of jehovah .
when jesus parted the non beleiver disciples from the core 12 (or was it 13) he made an outrageous statement and watched the weak walk off - thats exactly what jehovahs organisation has done today .

Really makes it sound cult-like, doesn't it. And the rank and file just lap it up.

Disfellowshipped
by LadyCCC iniam now as what was announced at a recent meeting that iam "no longer a jehovah's witness" all of my family and friends are witnesses so this will ailenate me from all of my friends and family.
but i feel like i don't want to go back.
i really hate the feeling of isolation and shamefulness while iam sitting in the meeting, what's the point of it all.
