I would have a meltdown too. Wifey and I are going to paint our bedroom. Have a handyman do it. I am going to sit there and watch him all day. Why? I have thousands of DVD´s and do not want him to help himself.

I heard the old legend that a brother gave a prayer at an assembly and the first thing he said was Good morning Jehovah. He was never allowed to pray again after that.

My observation, the "threefold cord" actually weakens a marriage
by Robert7 inso my wife and i survived leaving the jw faith together over the course of the last 4 years.
it was a wild ride for our relationship, but thankfully we are stronger than ever.
so looking back, here is my observation about the "threefold cord", at least the jw version of it.. i believe the idea of the threefold cord actually weakens a marriage, keeping it less mature.

Thanks Robert for the post. I have been faded for a year now and my marriage is MUCH happier. I married a worldly gal. I tried forcing her to meetings, using the bible to show my power etc. None of it worked and we would up fighting more and more. Since I have been out we have reconnected on a much deeper level. We have not read the Bible in a year but still pray. I thought we would divorce before and I would kick myself for not marrying a JW. Well no longer.

WHY IT IS WRONG FOR ELDERS, MINISTERIAL SERVANTS AND PIONEERS TO SOCIALIZE WITH THE WEAK ONES!
by AvocadoJake inthere is a sister in our hall who has made it clear why her "jehovah" does not like weak ones.
her husband the po, will refuse to work with those who are not getting ten hours or more a month.
the weak ones "are spiritually dangerous and will bring you down.

I did that recently as of a year ago. I felt bad about but did NOT want this person around me. A little retarded mishapen headed teenager picked me out at the convention and I was nice to him at first...Then he wanted to sit with me. Well I let him. He keeps STARING at me throughout the entire convention! he was weird to say the least. When we broke for lunch I sat in another location.
Not sure if I was showing that non love but the guy really creeped me out.

Are there ex-jws who haven't read Confessions of a Teenage Jesus Jerk?
by mutinyinheaven inevery ex-jw who has read my novel of a love story based in the jws is blown away.
there hasn't been one bad review, and it has been reviewed in the boston globe, san francisco chronicle, sf weekly, portland's weekly and daily newspaper and more.
publishers weekly gave it a starred rating and it's optioned for a film through hunting lane, the same producers who brought you blue valentine and half nelson.. it's available all over north america at indie bookstores, barnes & noble and more.. if you buy it off of me directly and don't like it, i will refund upon return of book minus shipping and paypal costs.. www.tonydushane.com.

5 minutes after Dad died in the hospital an Elder showed up to help out...He said...¨Well, he didn´t take good care of himself anyways¨ Yet Dad always did homeopathic stuff and ate apricot seeds. He took GREAT care of himself. This was an aortic anyresum. Nothing more. Wanted to punch the old guy right there and then but then again he was 80...I SO wanted to say the same thing to him when his wife died but I did not. I HAD couth.
