  LOL I like Handi-man the best! The WTS is handicapped, and despite what they believe, they have no super powers.

  (And to think, even though I love him, I almost said Batman. He has no super powers either, but he is not handicapped. )

  Why Elders leave the Organization and why their Wives stay.

  by stuckinamovement in

  i have talked to quite a few brothers who have served as elders and servants and left the organization.

  in most cases their wives have remained in despite the husbands best efforts to persuade his wife that the organization is wrong.

  even though the wife can see problems within they continue to press on in service to the society.

  SIAM, you hit the bullseye with this one. There are aspects of the org a woman will never experience, NEVER. She can only hear and talk about it, perhaps because of what her husband relayed to her.

  While that has softened my wife's stance towards my feelings, she still feels this is the truth and is struggling to do the "right thing".

  Anything I've said to her about my experiences has brought her to think, and often agree, but not enough to cause her to leave "the truth".

  I can only be hopeful for the future. At least my wife is pretty laid back, which has made it better for me.

  Either way, thanks for a great thread.

  Great fun about new magazine simplyfying

  by Gorbatchov in

  yesterday i read about the new watchtower & awake magazine simplyfying (15 pages) on jwd and i got a very big big simle at my face.

  (yes, the face is big also...).

  because: the simplyfying is based on a new strategy: using internet (jw.org) for distributing the magazine content.. the big smile came from this: at a recent co visit, the co told the congretation the following: "everyone of us who suggests that our magazines and litterature has to be distributed by internet is a potential apostate and against the will of jehovah.

  NC, I was going to resurrect this thread after reading your 'they want to stop by and talk' thread.

  But I see it's been done already. I got curious and wanted to know your background, as I didn't recall reading it before. Boy did I miss a good one! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED your recounting the events that led to present day for you.

  You really got me thinking. And can I just say - I think you're awesome! Thanks for sharing.

  Is the Watchtower blood guilty?. See what some elders have to say.

  by blond-moment in

  this jc is worth listening to, in my opinion he has the elders against the ropes most of discussion.. if you are only going to listen to one, this one is the money shot, this is the one i wish those curious about jw could hear.

  Crisis of Conscience

  Mine is from Ray Franz's book "Crisis of Conscience".

  It described perfectly how I felt mentally when I found out the truth about the truth and knew I couldn't just discuss it with anybody.

  After all, where else would I go?

  Happiest sadness I've ever felt

  by BreathoftheIndianNose in

  2. friends

  wow, so far 4 out of 4 "worldly" people i've talked to about my situation, actually care.

  i mean ive been telling myself that most people would care.

  but i can just tell, by the way i feel shocked and surprised at their genuine interest to listen and help, that subconsciously, i still feel like no worldly person cares.
