warning, zeb is having a rant.. i have become so pissed off at jw i bump into who come out with "we have not seen you in ages" and with "we miss you.." my answer is the same "miss me?.

i still live in the same house.".

just recently one sister said she missed my comments and jokes.

zeb,

You deserve the peace you seek. I hope that you find it.

Personally, my mother died November 8th. I had a few JW's pick up a few things that my mother wanted them to have. Other than that, there has been no interaction.

I have not been contacted by the congregation or any JW since she passed away. I was not even contacted about the Memorial. My sisters have not contacted me since the day my mother died.

My summary is: They are all pieces of shit.

What do you think?

if a decades-long apostate decides that they should marry a semi-active jw, what odds would you put on the viability of the marriage?

if not viable, how long before the shit would hit the fan?

My guess is that everything would blow up in less than a month.

Suicide in the spiritual paradise all too common

by doubtfull1799 in

just heard that a young brother committed suicide this week - the whole congregation is naturally very distressed.

what a tragedy.

according to my source he'd only been married about a year and his wife found him - he’d hung himself.

Wake me said, "NEVER ONCE did I EVER tell my therapist that I was a Jehovah's Witness. I was too concerned about protecting the cult! ... That therapist was unable to help me."

I was afraid to bring reproach on Jehovah and never mentioned that I was a JW when I was in counseling. I had many multiple diagnoses because of that that were wrong and really messed me up for a time. Fortunately, I eventually went to someone and told them that I was a former JW. Now I just have one diagnosis, Complex PTSD.

I am glad that I had the courage to finally speak the truth. Unfortunately, others live a life of misery without getting help. Some resort to the ultimate solution, like in the OP.

Many condolences to the family and his young wife.

i remember when that came out, my mother didn't catch it in the original article in the wt.

it was in one of the review "do you remember" thingies that she caught it.

she asked me if it means what she thought it meant.
