  My first reaction is pure anger...

  How dare the JW's continue this bullshit shunning in the light of a family emergency! My second thought is that ToesUp is right: your wife is your primary concern and this JW stuff needs to take a back burner. Really, does it matter that much? This is your wife... she is sick - gravely ill... your mom is helping not them. grrrrr

  Tell these nosey idiots to take a hike. Stand up for your mom and stand up for your wife.

  -calms down-

  and, i am so very sorry you are going through this. my thoughts are with you. hopefully your wife will heal well and quickly. <3

  ok so i have a question.

  i was a very, very true believer until i saw the child molesters in my hall and how that whole thing was handled.. my husband is older than i am and had been an elder for 12 when we married.

  so fast forward to 06, we are in a hall where i thought all the elders were ok at the worst and great at the best.

  Born in - Elders daughter - diehard believer - found info not conducive to believing the lie - read - understood - split - went through hell for many years (15ish) - It's all gone and I don't give a widows wart for any of it or any of them any longer, ex family included.

  so, yes, you can get it out of your system and go on to live a full and productive guilt free happy life.

  You are not crazy, the guy is a creep. Why are you still going to the hall at all? Why are you doubting yourself and your instincts. Why are you still even talking to these nutjobs.

  move on...

  Looter,

  Not sure how to take these latest posts. Look, I'm certainly not 'looking down my nose' at you for being a bible believer, but nor should you dismiss an athiests many years of heartfelt study and prayer to come to their conclusions.

  That's right, I prayed... a lot. I researched. I spent years in higher education. I studied everything; Bible, Quran, Talmud... Estern Religions, History, Science. I looked at archaeology and geologic sciences... it just didn't pan out to support any modern religious dogma.

  Keep in mind, I WANTED to BELIEVE. What I found tho is that science just doesn't support it. You want respect for your belief in god, and that's fine. Just don't disrespect others belief in science and the geologic record by saying that we need to 'look harder'. We have been searching for decades and found no compelling argument.

  People are leaving religion because the facts as revealed by modern scientific evidence as well as continued archaeology and the indisputable geological record of this planet continue to disprove 'intelligent design' of any means as well as the bible and other religious texts; they fall more in line with a sometimes violent (mutation) but mostly painfully slow evolution over eons of time. It does not 'jibe' with religion in almost any form so people are leaving it behind. It's a good thing. The most religious countries on the planet are the most illiterate, violent, backwards and economically desolated communities whereas the more secular countries have a more stable community across the board.

  There is a reason we call the most 'religious' time period in Europe "The Dark Ages." Religion devastated the continent. We are still paying the cost in modern times of that evil time.
