My dad was both a strong Witness (or thought he was) and a very violent man. It was this reason he was never made an elder, or at least the main part, and thus made him more frustrated, ergo more short-tempered, and the cycle continued.
There was an elder in the hall who made a comment regarding families and how "what goes on behind closed doors is personal" which gave my dad carte blanche to do what he wanted and felt he never had to answer to anyone.
You sound so brave to stand up to him; I respect you for that. Bullies are bullies because they can get away with it. Don't listen to all the Witness shite- you lived with him, and you know the real truth.

He's the new Sheffield United manager, if that's what you're getting at? I know fans are pissed because they didn't want him appointed.

Losch is dark haired and Jackson is far too young to be the old guy on the right... I don't think it's either of them personally but makes for an interesting conspiracy theory.

Music-related jw urban myths
by rebel8 ini was researching a few....whew...did they ever bother to *think for themselves* or did they just believe every demon-related rumor they heard?
(rhetorical question).
stevie nicks was a witch.

How weird, we heard the same rumour here in the UK, only it was the Eurythmics, and that they wanted to contact demons but Witnesses were "stopping the messages coming through."
Amazing what a body armour of Holy Spirit can do to fuck up singers' evil worship...

Dating after Divorcing a JW...
by RagingBull inany experiences/advice on dating (moving on) after a separation or divorce from a jw?.
i know that when (not if) i leave the org, my wife will probably separate then divorce me (and we have 3 small children).
i only know of horror stories when it comes to that type of scenario.

Hey RB, you haven't particularly offended me; I probably just misinterpreted your post. I read it as someone who, despite having three young children, saw leaving the Witnesses as an 'out' of his whole marriage. And I don't think leaving the organization and leaving a marriage are the same thing.
That said, I also know how hard it is to a) live with a hardcore Witness in the family and b) live with an 'apostate.' I also appreciate that having different values and beliefs can break down a partnership, especially if the relationship was based on similar thoughts/values/beliefs in the first place. It seems you have done your best to try and convince her of what you have found but Witnesses are scared STIFF of apostasy, more though, I believe, than paedophilia, which sounds crazy but seems to be true.
I am only just starting to read COC and I've been out of the organization for five years. It takes a lot of time but some people may never see reason.
Good luck.
Faundy.

I'm a little perturbed that you're not even separated yet and you're already thinking about sleeping with other people.
Believe it or not, it's your JW wife I feel sympathy for. Marriages can still last even if you leave the Witnesses. I find your approach pretty immature.

If you love a woman/man....
by LouBelle ini wondered about this as the song by brian adams played....what do you do/say/act if you really love someone.. .
edited to add: - i ask because some are so idealistic about it and think it's all fairytale stuff.
others are cynical..

In my experience I treat them like shit because I have something in me that makes it impossible for me to be happy. I have to fuck up everything I touch to reaffirm my own self deprecation.
But I take it you meant something nice, so my something nice would be to meet them from work and take them out, totally on a whim. I don't think it's about money, but about making a sincere effort, no matter how skint you are.
