Are Witnesses encouraged to talk about their non-JW mates?
by Nickolas inmy wife and i don't discuss the watchtower too much.
i'm atheist, and she knows there's nothing she can say to change that.
besides, she knows i've been doing a great deal of research into the society and could decimate any argument she could put forward that the wtbts is what it says it is, so she doesn't want to go there at all.

Interesting feedback. Thank you, all, and good night.

Same page, ee.
I might add that recently the Kingdom Ministry (used for the service meeting) had a part about "reaching out" to non-jw spouses as potential candidates to become new jws, especially since most of them are male and the WTS needs new male blood in the MS and elder field.
That sounds attractive, blondie, something I could buy into. I could join, get baptised, become an elder and then use my influence to inaugurate kingdom hall poker nights complete with nachos and lots of cold beer. What about elder nights watching Dexter or Breaking Bad? Naw. I don't think they really want me as an elder.
33 years!...you must have the patience of a Saint
Or a fool.

How long has your wife been a witness?
33 years.
this process would occur every 3-5 years
The frequency sounds about right, CHG. We've moved around a lot with my job, so maybe it always looked like a fresh opportunity to the elders at the new halls.
I don't know what he thought he was doing.
dumpster diving, if not for scraps of food to keep from starving, always has to do with either finding the lottery ticket you discarded by accident or to gather evidence. What on earth have you been up to, TD?
Makes me wonder if they are visiting to supposedly support her. Or if she is showing signs of doubt...and they are round to find out why.
Me too. I can hope.

What fabricated crime is he looking for?..
That's my puzzlement. It seemed like a fishing expedition, but I'm just not sure. Maybe he was innocently trying to strike up some sort of relationship with me (which would be like a gazelle cozying up to a hyena) but that doesn't make sense. We're worlds apart in all respects. I'm beginning to think he took his own initiative and decided to "just pop over and see what he could do to be friendly", sort of thing. Love Bombing 101.

Hey Nickolas..
If you didn`t want him there and your Mrs didn`t want him there..
Then he`s there to snoop..
That's what I'm thinking, too, OUTLAW.

Thank you, Bystander. Our situation is exactly as yours. We met in college (ed. except we call it university here in Canada). We are a much different couple from the norm, if there is such a thing as a normal Watchtower couple.

if the yorkshire ripper and baby ps killer is a jehovahs witness now are you insulted that your familys would be more willing to talk to these monsters than you ?
by looloo ini have read articles about peter sutcliffe (he brutally killed 13 women in the north of england in the 70s ) becoming a jehovahs witness in broadmoor and jehovahs witnesses have commented about him being a "changed man " etc and also the man who is serving 5 years for his part in the death of baby p becoming a jehovahs witness , i commented to my husband that his mum (jw ) would technically feel more comfortable having a chat and a coffee with them (because they love "the truth" ) than her own disfellowshipped children !
does this kind of story annoy those of you who are slandered for being "apostate" etc by family ?
and why dosnt it make die hard jws see the craziness of it all ?.

That is a very interesting contextual question, looloo, and it illustrates the underlying point very well. I will be sure to use it in conversation should the opportunity arise. Thanks.
