Talking like that about yout wife, GTTM, the one that sounds like an idiot is you unfortunately, and suggesting you can just get it elsewher just demeans your relationship. You don't sound like a prize catch with your attitude and if she divorces you, she'd probably be doing herself a favor.

I Don't think the jw kids today are afraid of the Elders or the Governing Body, like the jw kids of pre-internet era.
by pistolpete insomething i've notice with born in jw kids posting on reddit, is that they have no problem telling off the elders.
this generation of born in jw kids just have no fear of who the elders represent because they know from researching on the internet, that jehovah is a created character by ancient people, and no different or real, than thanos.. these kids know exactly what's going on with the child sexual abuse in the organization.
they also have read and memorized the elder's book online.

The yang-wans I've seen growing up from babies in the Congregation, and are staying in, don't generally want to make waves. Many are happy just to go on being luke warm JWs or leading a double life and when they get married the want their parents to be as grandparents should be to their kids.
But then there are those who can't live the charade any longer and act up. The b0rg as an institution would rather rid itself of these woke rebels who would never contribute a dime.
The wishy-washy ones who might not contribute are allowed to inflate the numbers and make parents happy they aren't DF'ed like so many other JW youths.
Then there are the heavily in true believers in the b0rg who act like exemplar pioneers and get the Circuit Assembly doctored and partly made up interviews. Those are the type the b0rg loves. Those might be the ones who will varry the b0rg into the next decades unless that is these also wake up as happened with so many a burnt out JW poster child who finally look behind the curtain and google Jehovah's Witnesses.

Which English Translations of the Bible are you Favorites, and Why?
by Disillusioned JW inwhich english translations of the bible are you favorites, and why?
my favorites include the (english) revised version bible (of 1881-1885) and its apocrypha (of 1898), the american revised version bible (of 1898, it close to the american standard version), the american standard version bible (of 1901), the new american standard bible - updated edition, the new revised standard version bible with the apocrypha, the complete bible: an american translation (it includes the apocrypha), and the twentieth century new testament.
i also use others beside those.. they are my favorites because i consider them to be highly accurate, and also they are either very literal (but not so literal as to be hard to understand) or they use functional equivalence.

I like the Berean Study Bible a lot over at Biblehub.com because it's quite readable but similar to the ESV and the NASB.

20 Years Occupying Afghanistan, Nothing Achieved
by Simon inso the occupation of afghanistan is coming to an end and, as predicted, they achieved absolutely nothing in that 20 years apart from:.
the death of 2,300+ service personnel and tens of thousands more seriously maimed or injured.. handing $billions or even $trillions of taxpayer dollars to defence contractors (so the military industrial complex wins, even if the military doesn't have a clear victory).. has this lengthy but short-term military occupation really changed anything in the country?
it doesn't appear so.. i said at the time that the us wouldn't have the staying power to enact real change.

Recently appointed Elder and his Regular pioneer wife wake up in 10 minutes and walk away.
by pistolpete ini been seeing several experiences by jws who are waking up very quickly.
not years, not months, not even days-----but minutes.
it seems that all the hypocrisy of the watchtower is becoming more obvious to the members.

Yeah I am also on double secret probation and havent been able to start a thread in several years. I guess you have to have a conservative Trumpian leaning record of repentace to get back into graces.

GOTCHA!
by JTrottigy inso i noticed one of the members here came to my jwtalk website, where i am an important administrator, and tried to join my site.. i check in here every so often and i was able to deduce that person was an apostate fraud, likely bent on polluting my site.
i denied their request to join.. ha!
gotcha!

Good catch Simón, the Jtrottigy guy is boasting yet makes himself a hypocrite by being on an apostate site himself. Not very faithful and loyal. If his elders found out he wouldn't be acting so boastful and cocky!

UFO's or Unidentified Aerial Fenomena....
by mikeflood inwhat do you guys think....the topic seems to being on fashion lately.
some in the borg told me one time "of course, they are for real, they could be angels, demons".. .

Read the other myriad of similarly titled topic threads on here.
Then again go watch some of the FringePop321 videos on YouTube.
Mike Heiser's "Unseen Realm" is certainly out of this world in a very identifiably demonstrable and Biblical way.

Governing Body; Villians or just Deluded?
by pistolpete inare you sometimes dumbfounded at the direction the governing body takes?.
thousands of documents proving 607 bce is wrong, yet the gb sticks to the date, why?.
the generation that would not die, yet they continue by introducing an overlapping generation.. disfellowshipping at a time when everyone is leaving, not a good idea, yet they continue to disfellowship.. here is a video that addresses these questions.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbgeqhp9o9i.
