  just wanted to introduce myself

  i've been a lurker for quite some time and enjoy the forum.

  i've reached a point in life where i don't argue ideologies anymore so i don't have much to say.

  i've been out for decades and believe i've been mostly de-cultabilized (if that's even a word).. my family is still in and i haven't had contact with them in years.

  Does having priveleges in the congregation mean you will have a successful marriage?

  by hoser in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after reading about tight pant tony's rant about sisters only marrying ministerial servants lest their marriage will be a failure what anecdotal evidence do you have to support this.

  the divorces that i am familiar with in the congregation show me that having priveledges in the congregation do not improve the odds of a better marriage.

  i would say about 60% of the divorces had at least one spouse who was a pioneer, elder or ministerial servant.

  Going on the OFFENSIVE

  by Coded Logic in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the wtbts has an easy time painting x-witnesses as apostates because the direction of information is entirely one way.

  and jws rarely get an opportunity to consider both sides of the equation for themselves.

  i think that websites like this one are a great tool for those who are already questioning their beliefs or are already entirely out.

  I had business cards printed up and give them out and post them everywhere I go. They cost me about $43 and that is double sided with color logo and shipping. You can design your own on these websites that print business cards.

  Mine have the blue logo I lifted off the jwfacts.com website. watchtowerdocuments.org, jwsurvey.com are listed along side jwfacts.com.

  I also had this printed on the back:

  Jehovah's Witnesses will be calling soon!

  Don't let them fool you.

  1 - still think it's the truth ...came to this site cause danger is your middle name.. 2 - concerned, smoething's amiss but still believe.

  3 - 98% sure it's bs, but still go for / with family.

  4 - anger / denial, inactive with minimal attendance (ie memorial, spec talk etc).
