smiddy3, Yes I'm still here, sorry about not replying sooner. The information that everyone has given has really helped a lot. When it comes to talking to my husband about things he is not familiar with, it takes a bit longer, because he deals with ADD. Thank you very much for the information.

Need help in finding some information regarding the Adam and Eve tale.
by Tameria2001 ini am finally at the point in my life i no longer believe in the tales of the bible.
my husband feels for the most part that it too is stuff made up.
there are just a few things that he wants to get cleared up, and one of those being the story of adam and eve.

There was a three month period where I had attended my last meeting, to the time I was forced to send in my DA letter. Or at least felt like I had to send one in. I did not know of any support groups, so I didn't have any other input from other former witnesses on what I should have done or not done. But to narrow it down even further, at the time of my research I came across information about the Watchtower and I was literally seeing red. I was so pissed off that I threw away everything and anything that the Watchtower had ever printed up. My husband asked me what was wrong and if I was angry at him. When I told him I was not angry at him but rather those lying dogs, he was just relieved that I was not mad at him. lol

Does anyone know of any good links that really goes into the actual facts?

Welcome to the group. For your own peace of mind, I would suggest research. There is a lot of information out there. I remember when I was leaving I was in turmoil, about quite a few things involving the religion. Also don't hesitate to ask questions, if you have any. I don't know what your plans are on the night they are going to make the announcement, but I would suggest missing that meeting.

Why I lost my religion
by Sour Grapes ini was a jw for over 50 years and recently just stopped cold turkey going to the meetings.
years of sitting at the meetings with the boredom, the gloom and doom, repetition of doctrine, the gloom and doom, the fake love, the gloom and doom, the end being so close, do more - do more, just got to be too much for me to stomach.
i stopped praying to god and no longer thank god for the food before i eat.

Even if the girl did have a previous conversation with that man, it still does not excuse him for not telling the mother who he is, and then later for hitting the mother.

I tried the Vegetarian diet for a couple of years but gave it up. When it comes to meat, my fish is limited, because all the toxins in the water, and I don't eat pork because I have an allergy to it. I do eat red meat from time to time, but not very fond of it, to me, it tastes like eating dirt. I do like some poultry though.

The only reason I pay any attention to it is that I have a few relatives who are stubbornly sticking to it.
