Last Night's Intervention
by brotherdan ini'm afraid of starting a new post because i've stepped on a few feet here with my last post... but i still love you guys.. last night i went home to find my wife and her friend on the couch with the bible, ready to show me how i'm wrong and exercising "apostate thinking".
my wife said, "i am unable to fight you with the bible because you know more than me about it.
but k** knows more and will be able to show you how you are wrong.. so my wife went into the other room so as not to be stumbled by my discussion.

Thanks for the support guys. I'm just down in the dumps right now. Everynight is something new. Last night my wife pretended to be interested in hearing what I had to say. I thought that it was great. But then I realized that she was deliberately trying to start a fight. How long can this go on? It would be so much easier if kids weren't involved. Last night I couldn't stop thinking, "I'm done". I'm just tired, you know. Tired of the fight. Tired of the defense. Tired of my own struggle with faith.

If you didn't shave above the knees...I'd probably keep my hands below your knees too. Until I had some beer in me.

You know the best song to listen to when you are getting ready for your date? "I have a date" by The Vandals. Good stuff

Thanks Billy. I'm new at this whole thing. I wish I would've busted open the laptop to show her the 607 deal. But since she was open to ready CoC, maybe she'd be open to reading Gentile Times Reconsidered as well. I just found a pdf of it online and I'm starting to read it now along with Combating Mind Control by Hassan.

Schnell and The Watchtowers everchanging "truth"
by brotherdan ini guess that's not the most interesting sounding topic, but i've been reading william schnells book "into the light of christianity" and came across something that i thought was totally profound.
"i now know that all cults...interpose an intermediary center for salvation.
in this way they sidetrack the true purpose of christianity, which is, to give the image and likeness of jesus christ full play for growth in the individual.

I pulled an F bomb on a JW date and got the evil eye.
Hey I've got another one:

I wonder if the parents have caught on that all the kids do it anyway... I snuck out all the time and did pretty much everything while my parents never knew about it.
That's what happens when you try to pen up a bull in a glass shop. A guys hormones will destory everything.

She must've been old school too. I look at the old JW photos and most of the women have snarls on their faces!
