  In a WT dictatorship system where you are told what to do, when to do it and how to do it .... NO. Seriuosly, honestly.

  If JWs would take over anyhow miraculously tomorrow government over the Earth ... I want to die on that moment.

  Bluesbrother, Moshe: Thanks for you story.

  Undercover: I hope my story will be similar to yours... We had twins born 3 months ago, so it is very busy, and my wife is very "weak spiritually" now - In past 4 months we were once at the KH (to show off the kids...) and she was not door to door for a year now.... So I hope one day your story will be my story...! You re lucky man!"

  Garyneal: Thanks, you've given me reason why I should continue to 'support' my wife in her attendance by attending with her.

  I really hate the time spent in KH, but at least I can give some additional comments to my wife on what was said during the program ("Do you really think it is normal to discuss in the church oral, anal sex and mutual masturbation as we did during todays WT study honey????) and to make sure nobody talks to my kid when the meeting is over ... there is a small parking lot at the KH, so when we come late, we have to leave as soon as the meeting is over, because it is packed ...

  Chalam: You need to make sure you read anything but the NWT

  Yes we read from other Bible than NWT, Iam happy my wife has no problem with that...

  I think this is highly dangerous in many ways.

  What can you do, if your wife woul bring them there anyways...? So at least Iam there to protect....

  Carla: Critical thinking skills is a must!

  Great point! Thanks!

  you will start bringing the kids to a different religious service

  I did try to arrange that, but my son told mummie, and she told him that in another church he would do a false worship... so son came back to me that he doesnt wont do false worship... I really do not want to take kids as hostages, so I did not push it....

  Quandry: Thanks, I hope to win mama as well some day - by now its a great succes we go along with no problems.... Other wife would call elders on me already....

  Proof the GB does not really believe the end is comming.....

  2. beliefs

  if you were a leader of a small group that should survive a worldwide disaster and will be left on their own, not being able to use now common services would you:.

  a) encourage your members to learn all possible skills and to get all possible today available education, maybe even organized "who will learn what" to cover really every aspect of future life and to be really prepared ..... or.

  b) discurage your members from education, letting them just sit home or at meetings and keep repeating: "the end is comming, the end is comming ... be ready, the end is comming...".

  By choosing b) GB proves they do not really believe Armageddon is comming ....

  What do you think rank and file opinion is on that? Do they believe angels will build bridges and houses and will make clothes and shoes in the NW?

  iknowall: great points!

  Two weeks ago we had my wifes cousin with her husband and 16 years old son (all hard core dubs...). The boy just started study in a new school - specialized in construction engeneering...

  I asked him: So how do you like the new school?

  He said: Well, not really, I think I will not do this for livivng...

  Me: So what hobbies you have? What do you want to do for living?

  Him: I dont know. I have no hobbies. I hope we will have the New world by then....

  It was so sad and ridiculous... When they left, I asked my wife: Do you want our son be like this? She had to admit it was really sad...
