Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I AM THE BAD GUY BECUASE I CHOOSE TO NOT BE BOTHERED BY THE HYPOCRISY.
What I'm saying is that my JW family are gossipers, liars, back-stabbers, fornicators/adulteres, wife-beaters, deceitful.... I mean whatever it says in Proverbs 6:16 about the six things that Jehovah hates and SEVEN are detestable to his soul.....many JDUBBS I know has this list on point! And still yet I am wrong for not trying to work things out with the fater of my children PLUS I have the audacity to have thrown Jehovah to the side!
I have not THOWN Jehovah to the side! I just don't attend organized BULL**** that wants to do head counts for the sake of numbers! I'm saying I will have to make a decision to "separate" myself and my children from my hypocrital JDUBB family. I feel the only reason my mom invites me over is to "check me out" and reprimand me.
In one breath, my mom is like on e of those "chanting" religions: "JEHOVAH SAID, JEHOVAH SAID, JEHOVAH SAID...FIELD SERVICE, FIELD SERVICE, FIELD SERVICE. But, out of the same supposedly wholesome mouth:"THAT BI***, THAT MUTHA-EFFER, THAT H-O-E-, etc, etc......" It's like she has Tourette Syndrome. Does she even hear herself??
So, what I'm saying is they feel that as long as a person is "attending the kingdom hall" they are the best of the best of the best...OMG!!! I just can't take the hypocrisy!
I thank any and all of you for being understanding. I feel as though I'm rambling on. I need a "physical" support group to tell me that I'm not the one who's crazy, here.

Hello, All! It's been a long time.
Well, I guess I'm gonna have to 'cut the cord' with my family.Of course, they are all BIG SINNERS in Jehovah's borganization, as is my husband. BUT, I NEED TO GET IT TOGETHER AND START ATTENDING MEETINGS AGAIN!
Because he is the hypocrite and I don't tell them everything that goes on in our marriage, his word holds power over mine. Basically, my divorcing him and my not attending the meetings with my children is the MOST horrendous offense......not his adulterous ways.
WTF???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please help me to cope with this. I just don't understand it!!!!!!!!!

@SKEETER1- ....that IS the message and has ALWAYS been the message. An 'unbaptised' Witness is ALWAYS better than a 'wordly' man. That has always been taught from the platform, babe.
An 'unbaptised' brother has it so muchbetter because he knows that 'baptised' wifey had better abide by the rules and she WILL. A baptised sister marries a 'worldly' man and he cheats on her............it was to be expected. With the 'unbaptised' brother...he just needs to get baptised.
...just telling the truth........

So ... what happens when we die?
by sacolton inwhat do you personally believe happens after we die?
i don't believe we really know everything about god or the afterlife.
i do believe that we do transform to something beyond our physical comprehension.

@SCOTOMA - I agree. Total resentment. I HOPE that there will be a resurrection to see our loved ones, again. When my dad got to his final weeks
with his cancer, it pained him (and us) that he HAD to die...that we would be w/out him as this LIFE goes on. He was angry. Many family members
have died before him who had served Jehovah and still, after his 66 years on this earth, for the struggle to live as this organization wants us to live.....no "end" in sight for the New World.
It pains me to see how many years have passed since creation. People continue to die, natural events (floods, pestilence, hurricanes, tornadoes,
tsunamis, earthquakes, portions of the earth falling into the sea never to be inhabited.....) it's like a continious horrible acceptance of what we call
"LIFE".... is this REALLY all that we have?
To be killed or die at a young from a car accident or cancer of some sort? And a "LOVING" god is "okay" with this?? I don't get it.

@MOUTHY- Oh, honey, I am so sorry you went thru that! But, remember, I went thru it to. The brothers and OLDER sisters in the org told me that I was wrong for even complaining. I was to have a "quiet spirit" and I did. It made me so full of resentment over the years and it takes a lot of deprogramming.
I've forgiven my husband. I had to learn that to have peace w/in myself. I also learned divorce was even the remedy. I wished I had the balls to do it so much sooner.
Nolonger are the sisters staying in marriages for 20, 30, 40 years. This generation is jetting after just 2 or 3 years AND are taking their children! This
new breed will even STRUGGLE a while on there own just to have peace of mind and normalcy. And actually have gotten on their feet and have
prospered!! Kudos!!! The problem enlies here: they continue to be a part of the org with their new lives! The society sees this and it is scary to
them! This shows a "new" type of entity amongst the org and the brothers don't like it because it promotes a spirit of "I can do this ALL by myself"
So, you don't have "family units" in the org and it doesn't have the "appearance" of the true religion. It looks REALLY bad.
This "new breed" is no damn joke!

@MORBIDZBZBY - You are HILARIOUS!!!!!!!! Yes! No matter how much you you crya nd scream that YOU need help, you are the under demonic influence (basically) for not taking the force-fed sh** in the marriage!!! EVERYBODY DOES NOT WANT TO EAT SH** FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES!!!!
Yes, the ending of my marriage CAN be my fault!!! Like you said, you can trail this man for years and kiss his ass day and night to keep the marriage going. It doesn't always work!!!! I did it for years! Once I turned around and started treating him like the scum of the F'ing earth, THEN AND ONLY THEN, am FINALLY treated like a human! Finally, I was treated like a human!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, I told all, I will take ALL the blame and glory as to the dissolution of this marriage. I've even dreamt of having seminars to show J-dubb sisters on "how" to get out of their bad marriages. Also, to SHOW them that it is OKAY to DISSOLVE it when it nolonger works for either party. I've seen brothers hold station as elders/servants/c.o./d.o and they had been having affairs on their wives FOR YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I instruct them to get out, get a formal education and live their lives.
@LOSTGENERATION- Right!!!!!!! PURE BEHAVIORAL CONTROL! I understand because I was and allowed myself to be controlled for soooooo many years/too many years.
I can tell you actually what is happening: Get baptized young 10-17 y.o.), get married at 19 y.o., marriage is "cute" because you are both pioneering and he is reaching out in congregation, you're helping out at all the 'quick-builds', hand and hand singing at the assemblies and you're considered as a "young spiritual couple"....and it's soooo damned cute to the on lookers.
After 2-5 years of marriage: REAL LIFE HAPPENS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Start having babies, late for the meetings, too damned tired to go to the meetings, hubby wants hot meals 2-3 times a day just like you did when you first got married
because you were trying to impress with all you "homemaker" skills but now those days are far and in between because you both work 40-45 hours a week, hubby starts
(or already has been hanging out w/other brothers over single sisters homes and ex-girlfriends homes and strip clubs and w/the women at hteir jobs, BUT they still
attend meetings and go out in field service and give Sunday talks and want to knock you upside your head because you and the kids are not ready for field service and
meetings on time, etc, etc, etc............... NOW the 2 of you argue like bitches and sometimes get into physical altercations where the wife scatches up the husband
because he's still drunk from the night before w/his other "christian" boys, etc, etc, etc....................
.......THRU IT ALL YOU ARE TOLD TO TRUST IN jEHOVAH AND BE A GOOD LITTLE DUMB-A$$ WIFE AND HE WILL COME AROUND OR EVENTUALLY THE ANGELS WILL KICK HIM OUT OF THE ORGANIZATION........
.......but, until then, you have given up your YOUTH from the age of 19 thru 47 y.o...........
--As told by a woman who is no longer in the Jehovah's Witness Organization, but now happily divorced, educated and living a WONDERFUL LIFE while extensively traveling w/her children and now has a generous 401k investment because she realised that life is truly too damned short and this just may be the ONLY one you get...
..........PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!!!

My heart goes out to your niece. My daughter is 16 y.o. at the moment. I tell her I DO NOT want her to marry until she has:
1) gone to college
2) have a REAL career (as MANY J-dubbs do not have)
3) travel, have fun, have a FEW boyfriends to find out what YOU wannt and what YOU like
4) live on your own by the morals I have taught you.................... BUTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5) do not subject yourself to ANY religious organizations until you have lived YOUR OWN LIFE. This would help you to figure out if this religion IS what YOU WANT.
As J-dubbs....YOU have absolutely NO CHOICES in life.
Please encourage your niece to live HER life. Jehovah gave it to her at "free-will".

The drama -- I basically laughed hysterically!
I guess marriages are breaking up left and right within the organization. A couple got married young. Neither one had advanced "in the truth". But, the young married sister wanted "peace of mind in her life." The "wholesome" sister told her she didn't have any "proof" that her husband was cheating on her. The sister tells her they have grown apart and the arguments are daily and becoming violent and she just NEEDS out.
She is basically told to STAY IN YOUR MARRIAGE AND SUFFER!!!!! Of course, the sister who wants the divorce talks to her husband and they "lovingly" decide to stay in the marriage regardless of unhappiness. (((smh)))
So, of course, my family was hoping that I had change of heart and would have Holy Spirit come down on me and turn me, once again, into a Stepford Wife. LOL!!! No dice!!!
So, again, they have duped these dumb-a$$, J-dubb sisters into staying miserable as hell in these awful marriages. Bottom line: STAY IN YOUR F'd-UP MARRIAGE!
Did anyone else get that message???? Just curious................
