I was so sure that the knowledge of the organization being in bed with the UN for 10 years would have moved many to wake up and smell the coffee but so many were unfazed by it so I don't think it's in the cards, but it's a nice dream.

I'm not so sure a bigger awakening is going to happen anymore
by bradford inwhen i left in march officially i started reading the forums here.
i had this excitement that more people would be leaving soon because of the crazy broadcasts, the crazy "new light" that the gb was dishing out, and more recently the australian royal commission lighting up geoffrey.
this past saturday i had an elder stop by to chat for the first time since i left.

She's scared. I used to give my husband the silent treatment if he missed a meeting. Now we are both out.
Take her out on a date, maybe out to eat and a movie. Tell her that any talk of religion, God, anything spiritual is off limits. If there is something you both enjoy doing, try doing it together. What brought you two together to start with? Focus on those things. If you have kids pull out photo albums of when they were young of photos of when you were first married. She also may be going through menopause if you've been married for 27 years, the sex drive does lessen.
Hope this helps.

"I do not recall" is a convenient way to save yourself without lying. You are not saying that you cannot remember, just choosing not to recall it at the moment. Learned that from watching Bill Clinton under interrogation. -

I just watched the CNN-Australia clip. I have a feeling this is just the tip of the iceberg.
We should all type "Jehovah's Witnesses" into the Google and Yahoo search engines (and any others) to keep it in the fore-front.

I've had it several times before and take Sudafed at the onset, however, if yours has been going on for days then you need to go to a doctor. I know people that have been hospitalized because of it, don't mess around. -

There is an elder in my hometown congregation that always helps those in needs, too numerous to list. He does it without any hoopla or anyone knowing about it. He's not perfect, drinks too much and cusses too much for an elder but takes to heart the scripture to look after orphans and widows. If all elders were like him, there would probably be a lot more staying in the organization. -

After twenty years of marriage…
by John Aquila ini just got a call from a friend who informed me that a brother whom i've known for a while and is an elder, just found out last night that his wife of 20+ years declared she was gay, and left him..
i still need to confirm but my friend is very reliable and was close friends with the family.
heres the thing, she spent 20+ years with this man, has children with him and now decides she wants to follow her heart.

I am friends with a couple that was married for 30 years before the husband came out. I always felt he was gay as we all grew up together but he never gave into his feelings due to the religion. Once he finally came out, he said that he had known all his life that he was gay. He is now happy living as a gay man and his ex is remarried to someone else. They remain best friends with each other and none are in the religion any longer.
