  my poor wife went to get those big ol' injections in her spine on thursday and right after she said she would like to go see her dad.

  i feel for you TOTH, It's hard to take insults from anyone, but especially from jerks who have absolutely no room to talk! Like you I'm dealing with family who are badmouthing me to others. It hurts.

  The "Invisible" HEADSCARF and VEIL

  by Terry in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  right this minute you already have an answer in place inside your own head that you absolutely hold to be true.. because of your "invisible" headscarf and veil your actions, your acceptance, your loyalty is driven by your submission to unchallenged ideas.

  nature is filled with winners and losers .. winners rule, dominate, lead, conquer, devour and hold sway.. losers submit, obey, follow, surrender, die or knuckle under.. .

  animals establish territory and defend their turf.

  When i was a JW I didn't mind being in "submission" because I didn't have a bully for a husband. I expected to be taken care of as the "weaker vessel" and played it to the hilt. There are many variables to the idea of submission. For example, we are ALL in submission to gravity- like it or not. We are in submission to the governments we live in. To some extent, we are even in submission to the things that make us human. Like death, sleep, eating, etc. etc. Try to rebel and see if it works.

  OPRESSION is different. Opression takes things to an unhealthy, undesirable, level.In this case, the headscarf is worse than the alternative.

  Guess what? The person I'm referring to was born a woman and and became a man. The same answer was given. I read somewhere that one out of 1000 babies are born with ambiguous(sp?) sex organs . The doc and parents make the decision as to what the gender will be. Many get it WRONG. Is this the childs fault????

  Raw intelligence, IQ, is different than education. I know little about British public schools but I suspect they are far better than those in the US. It continually shocks me how illiterate US High School graduates frequently are.
