Wonderfully written...if she never had sex with "Eric" her husband had no scriptural divorce and he is fornicating with his new wife according to their own JW rules! But then again elders have their own set of rules.

I was raised believing it was the only truth and that God loved his faithful witnesses. Unfortunately it took me decades to realize my life wasn't any better than the life of my unbelieving neighbors...except that they were free to decide how to live theirs. I never felt that intimate relationship JWs claim we should have with God...he was never there for me...

Why are some of you guys calling this new arrangement tithing?
by neverendingjourney inat the risk of being shouted down, i thought i'd point out that "tithing" means giving 10 percent of your income to a church.
it comes from the old english word teogotha meaning tenth.
i've seen nothing that establishes tithing in the watchtower.. while i'm all in favor of pointing out the watchtower's lies, hypocrisies and faults, the language we use matters.

JW used to rent space for congregation meetings and circuit assemblies and figured out that building their own kingdom halls and assembly halls would be much more cost effective...now the WTS has found a way to milk more money from those who built and paid for these buildings...how cost effective is that? If my bank called me to offer to erase my debts in exchange to a perpetual payment equal to what I am paying now while surrendering the title of my home, I would tell them to f###off...how many JW will understand that this exactly what's happening to them?

Feeling disloyal
by stirred but not shaken ini've been visiting here for about a year or so, but didn't really feel compelled to participate other than reading the various posts that interested me.. there's been that uncomfortable feeling of being disloyal to god, the organization, many friends and relatives.. i've been associated since birth.
after 65 + years of service within this organization and actually enjoying that time, it troubled me to find myself wanting to express feelings that were contrary to all that time of "faithfulness".
those years were filled with progressive "privileges and responsibilities" even at a high level, and there was considerable success in our evangelizing activity.

Welcome SBNS.
I to was a faithful JW for 50+ years and feared loosing all the "friends" I knew worldwide. Taking some distance allowed me to see they were not friends...only close coreligioneers who don't want anything to do with me...they only loved the JW I was...Thanks for posting and I look forward reading more from you.
