Wife wants a Family Study after the special talk...but initially refuses Bible only study.
by garyneal inmy wife asked me to attend the special talk with her because she wants to attend something like this as a family and feels that she "enjoys worshipping together" as a family.
i have not been to church for at least a year and have pretty much abandoned the practicing of my faith but i can remember how i used to want to have a church going family so i obliged.
i feel kind of apprehensive about doing these things because she wants the kids and i to be on our best behavior and has even fussed at me for playing tablet games during other talks.

Gary, if you want to protect your children, join another church and bring your kids, get involved with children's programs and social events so that they make friends. Choose a nice liberal church that doesn't teach hełł, and stick with it. Be involved in your children's social life. Your wife won't do it, so you organize play dates with non witness families.
there are lots of good children's bible study books, you can go to a bookstore and check them out.

Hypocritically, there are many scriptures the witnesses think are odd and ignore, which don't agree with their doctrine. But they agree with Christendom. You need to step out of the religion and look at them again before they make sense.
Fiddler I've got to look for those Enoch segments, thanks for that.

Speaking of false prophesies, Hey does anyone have that picture that shows how Russell used the steps inside the Great Pyramid to prove the end of the world was coming in 1914? -

Well, I made some arguments and encouragements for research on the trinity above. Not so eloquent but I hope you do look into it some more.
From what I've seen, witnesses are the only religion that never frankly apologizes for its mistakes. I read a lot about religion, and they all apologize. Even the Catholic Church apologizes. For JW's to call Christendom pompous really takes the cake.
No, none of them are perfect, but most are less flawed than the witnesses, seriously, and a lot less self aggrandizing. You're going to do what you want to do. It would be good tho to keep an open mind on this as you go through the next few years. Keep your eyes open. Talk to people in other churches.
