i know jw's are abusive psychologicaly to their members, however so are other churches.

case in point, i knew a woman who would not marry b/c the pope said not to use birth control.

she did not want children, and she could not find it within herself to go against the pope.

this has been a most dreadful 2 weeks for me.

my mother, a faithful jw, finally died after a long illness.i had been by her side all the way., my brother& wife , the jw ,rarely made an apperance-but showed up at last minute to make sure he got her jewelry.

he rarely showed up because i am not active so not considered good association.also he had no close feelings for her.

1. jw
2. experiences
i have been a jw all my life and i'm in mid to late 40's.

i've seen much abuse.currently i am inactive/attend occ meeting.. my husband who is also a jw and attends some meetings but has been inactive in service for some time due to depression.not at all responsive to me talking to him about this site.he defends jw to the end.my question has to do with other religions than jw.

my husband says that issues like child molestation/ abuse and rape have not generally been dealt well with by anybody until lately.i am from texas and here the baptist and church of christ are major religions.

being in the org for a very long time i have seen people do all kinds of things .

one thing that i have never really seen discussed is how common it is for an elder to have a mistress in the background.

oh he may not be actually sleeping with her, but i personally for over 20 years was a second "wife "to an elder.
