Has Anyone, or, How Many Have Written to WTS...what was the response?
by Pioneer Spit...oh, i mean Spirit ini wrote for the first time 5 months ago.
one of my sisters, a hoho, was married 27 years to an ms who has abused her mentally, emotionally, physically, and this was well-known to most everyone who knew them including family.
when she filed for divorce, i heard that our parents, other family and ex-friends yelled at and criticized her, and then the elders called her into a meeting and condemned her, i was furious.

My parents were into that when I was young, in every state we ever visited the KH, it was horrible--we always met people with connections in AZ. It just cut a chunk out of a vacation.

What's your present belief ?
by JH in.
without attacking anyone for their beliefs, feel free to state what you believe in right now.. personally, i still believe in a higher power, a creator, call him jehovah if you wish, a god that will put things back right eventually.

There is a saying, that religion is for people who are afraid of going to hell, spirituality is for people who've been there.

Scripturally Free to Remarry?
by limbogirl inhad a discussion with a friend of mine yesterday -- she's still semi in the borg.
anyway, she says she's free to remarry as defined by dub rules.
she's divorced, however, there was no cheating by either party in the marriage.

And let's not forget that some reasoned that 'committing adultery with her in your heart' could also make you free scripturally. . .A scriptural divorce that's all in your head. Lust not!!

And here was my sister, suicidal and with no where to go!
I wrote a simple question: Dear sirs: Which does Jeh--ah hate more: a divorcing or spousal abuse? They responded with 'both acts are a wrongdoing and can result in disfellowshipping and any marriage can be saved using the bible'. I wrote back asking how they could judge that both acts are a wrongdoing without knowing any of the facts of a case, and also asked that they please answer the initial question. They didn't respond again, but they did contact the local congregation (our old cong) and one of the elders emailed me since I signed both letters with my initials. He asked if I was being abused and could they do anything to help. Can they behave with any less class, or more ignorance? I did not respond to the local elder.

If there was a chance that it could help active Hohos to see that they've been duped and are being controlled by WTS, sure I would. Except, no active Hohos would watch it, because they've been duped and are being controlled by WTS. Do you see the cyclical nature of the problem?
