Yeah Teel They hate being made fun of especially when they realize we have good reason that they can see how ridiculous it is themselves. Not that they'd admit it. I once sent them crowns made from gold paper with Prince ............... ( their name)on the front and all the false dates written around the sides. This was when the WT declared them princes

What happened to your marriage after you stopped believing?
by JerkhovahsWitless ini know some posters here went through or are going through some painful things right now because of no longer believing when they have a husband / wife that still does.
others were able to free the minds of their spouse.
i'm assuming the latter is a lot more rare.. anyone that wishes to share their story, please do.. i'm looking to pass the info on to someone who doesn't totally believe, but may marry a jw.

Went down the tube I was now a threat to her "Cognative Dissonance " Should she believe what the WT says that I must be evil or her own experience living with me I was still the same person she married but she could not accept that.

What's the big attraction to having to live through it? The dead are spared having to experience horrific calamities. What am I missing here?
No sex if your resurrected

SD7 You have every right to be angry you were deceived as we all were But your directing that anger at yourself I can't blame myself for being conned and I doubt that anyone here does. We lay the blame where it belongs with the GB and vent accordingly
I also felt suicidal my sense of security was gone what I had based my whole live on was a lie and I realized I could lose everything that was dear to me. Sure I contemplated suicide but it passed and it will for you.
Now about the wife her sense of security is threatened she is shit scared be there for her. Don't do anything that threatens it play the Elders game The Org conned you you can con them. Like brothers I wish I had your faith in the FDS let them relate their bullshit reasons and then say Well I never thought about it that way. Get the picture? Premarital sex? you confessed to Jehovah and you believed he had forgiven you If they believe your just weak and don't challenge them they won't give you the boot. They call it theocratic warfare ( don't tell the truth when its not to your advantage) It can be a lot of fun outsmarting them.
I wore a full beard for years no tie and often stood out the back of the hall during the meetings. When challenged I said your fortunate that shaving doesn't give you a terrible rash.... No tie Asthma feel like I'm choking..... Standing at the back Ever had piles Brother. One helpful Elder came up during the meeting stood beside me and said one word "Vaseline " Vaseline I replied "Yes for you know" he said "What" says I "Piles" he whispered SD7 They can be quite amusing at times a bit of fun.

Are these things still frowned upon/banned?.
by zzaphod inthinking back, there were a few things i was told then, that now seem rather odd and petty.
i was wondering if these thing are common in the wts or was it just that my girlfriend at the time was a pioneer, and her father was an elder.
(so perhap a bit more "enthusiastic" than others).

So many rules and so many situations in life they have not covered IE: Is it OK for me to pray while having a crap or is that a conscience matter?

Status within the Org
by Luo bou to inhave you ever noticed that within the cong if your not a elder or ms you have no status.
you may be educated, successful and respected by your worldly colleagues but that counts for nothing.
any elder with the intellect of a flea who is incapable of having an intelligent conversation thinks he is a superior somebody 'cause he can parrot wt rhetoric.

Not to mention if you were to "reach out" Luo, she probably would have had to go working too, so less FS and all. I imagine you being "materialistic" enabled her to be a "good witness".
Yeah Teel My first priority was to provide for my family as opposed to living in the fantasy world the GB promotes of seek first the kingdom ( do what we say and sell literature) and food will miraculously appear on your table

Are you a Christian? How often do you challenge your beliefs?
by cyberjesus inuntil 6 months ago, i had faith in jehovah, jesus and the bible.
i was not a jw ( i had been dfd 15 years ago) but i was planning on going back.
i questioned some basic beliefs on the wts and discovered i had been lied to for over 35 years.

The JW God is a very small one whose only purpose is to endorse Wt authority and threaten those who oppose it. Do I challenge my beliefs daily?Let me say instead that I never feel threatened by those that do. I know Jesus loves me and that is all that matters

Another thing re my wife even though I ran a succesfull business and she did not have to work and wanted for nothing I had no status with her 'cause I was not reaching out. She was the Elders darling such a good witness. At home the kids and I suffered she could be a real bitch and when she stopped taking her meds for bipolar all hell would break loose.
