  so i am trying to understand if i am the only pomo that experiences the situation where the pimi spouse comes back from a meeting a different personanlity.

  it may not be obivious to the untrained eye, but i notice it and i know my sons notice it.

  this last round after all the loyalty bs and armagedon bs it's like she has stayed stuck in it.

  I find it weird I pick her up after the meeting and we go look at Christmas lights.

  ” Isn’t that display pretty “.

  i laugh.

  Her friend works for a construction company and they were on a job in a business that decided to celebrate pride month. As soon as that rainbow flag went up , the crew left and the boss said we won’t be here as long as that flag is up. He wasn’t a witness but a Baptist.

  He referred to him as “ a really religious guy “ that Is why we are not working this week .

  I thought it was a weird thing to say. I laughed , it was kind of a Freudian slip .

  My wife literally remembers nothing from a meeting. I know because I actually test her on it. It’s so weird . They could be reading the phone book and she wouldn’t know the difference. Lucky for me because me because they deal with some pretty disgusting concepts.

  my mother says her prayers protect her. I think she is just stupid. Never marry for looks.

  i have a wife that i would say is a social witness.

  i have never once had a meaningful discussion about the bible or even seen her read the damn thing.

  she puts up a pretty facade of being a good witness but isn’t really a religious person.

  I have a five year old son who is really starting to hate going to the Kingdom Hall. I just feel so terrible for him.

  The problem is I can see his future social circle being all witnesses. He has cousins and two other kids the same age in the hall. Of course being an anti social loner like myself I really don’t offer much. I am currently trying to find some Christian friends with young children.

  Hopefully I can just tell this kid in a few years this is all nonsense is centred around a failed prediction in 1914 and an editing of the New Testament.

  Is there anything I can say or do to save him from this garbage.

  so i use to go this hall that was basically 100 percent white and basically anyone under the age of 40 has either faded or makes a token effort to keep the peace at home, of course outside of the usual dregs of society .

  the hall went from two congs to one and i was quite happy that in ten years they would be lights out.

  then in the last two years about six young filipino families have moved in and three of them are newly baptized .

  The entire country is basically some version of a Christian based cult.

  It’s seems for a religion that once preyed upon on the middle class now seems to be the only people showing an interest are immigrants and the mentally ill.

  I shouldn’t really say racist but think people know what I mean.

  Why?

  My mother’s theory is when you grow up in a third world country you don’t receive the proper nutrition in the womb and it effects your intelligence later in life.

  I feel like a horrible person for thinking like this.

  I remember being in a meeting and some lady going crazy about her trip to bethel and how she got to met some of the anointed and how Jehovah was usually these people in the last days. I couldn’t help but think doesn’t this dingbat realize it’s all made up by seven men. These partakers don’t really do anything.

  It couldn’t have been less than a month later the faithful slave just meant the governing body. I was like no shit Colombo. It was one of the last meeting I went to.

  here is my review after watching the ''roles and responsibilities video''.

  Maybe each cong can send out a couple members to see if they can find a copy of the New Testament with the Tetragrammaton in it.
