I know exactly what you mean, growing up a JW I used to fear dieing at armegedon b/c I never felt worthy enough in Jehovah's eyes. I used to pray to die before armegedon so I could at least get a better chance of surviving. The fear they instill in children.

You all talk about age diference like it is something bad. I happen to be married to a man 18 years my senior. Been married 10 years and we still get along like the day we were married. My father is 7 years older than hubby but they get along great. age makes no difference if you truely love one another.

to scream or not to scream
by Incense_and_Peppermints injw women have a greater need than jw men to stay ever vigilant and attentive of the watchtower's back and forth rules and regulations which they have the nerve to teach is "new light" from god.
depending on the "new light" from the governing body, if she doesn't scream during a rape, she will be charged by the elders as an adulteress ... someone who may have actually 'enjoyed' the violent act because of her silence.
if another jw woman was raped in 1969 and she didn't scream, she would not be disfellowshipped.

This happened to a friend of mine. She got raped not just once but twice by the same man and she got disfellowshipped for not screaming either times. The elders told her b/c she did not scream either time she must have wanted it. How sick can you get. The guy had scissors to her stomach and told her if she screamed he would kill her, her sister and her 3 year old nephew down the hallway.She is still in the truth.

The best thing I like about the USA is the freedom of religion. You can choose who you want to worship. Next is the best southern Louisiana cooking you will ever eat in your life. No place on earth like it.

What would it take for you to be happy
by kenpodragon inwhat would it take for you to be happy in life?
does it take the fall of the organization, or just one person?
or does it take something else completely unrelated to the witnesses?.

I have a weird neat one.
I have a friend who is a twin, their b-day is april 18th. His wife had twins on the same day. How much of a coincidence is that. How often does that happen?
