Female Subjugation
by out4good3 ini'm aware of many couples where the man, usually the breadwinner, can no longer tolerate following the wt party line anymore.
i myself am the only breadwinner in my family and although my wife works hard to appear as the staunch jw, i never berate or hold it against her in any way as do most other men i know in similar situations.
she knows how i feel about the wt so she almost never asks my opinion on soceity related matters.. but, what of the couples where it is the woman whose fallen away but finds herself totally dependent upon her staunch jw husband for support?.

What do you do...?
by Brummie inwhat do you do when you see jw family or jws who were once good friends on the street?

My dilemma
by eyeslice ini have been associated with the jws all my life, recently turning 50 years old.
i was a true believer, a hard working elder, very zealous for the truth, a pillar in the congregation, and a fine speaker and teacher.
i even served in an extremely difficult foreign land for a while with my family.. i always knew we had our problems, but felt that it was my responsibility to effect change from within.

Elder Resigns Because Of 9---11
by minimus inlast night i talked to an elder that resigned early this year and he told me that he resigned as an elder because of 9--11. he felt that after seeing thousands of people dying in such a horrifying way, there was just no way god would destroy 99 and 9 tenths of the world and only spare jehovah's witnesses.
he also felt that since the kingdom message could not be adequately preached by a handful of jw's so that people could get life, the whole thing is a sham.
he no longer goes to meetings and his wife crys to everybody about her husband.

Watchtower & Sex
by JH indo you think that witnesses in general have a good sex life?
with all the pressure they have to produce and assist meetings, they have less time left on their hands for other things, like sex.
asked to be spiritual, reading the bible, talking about god and angels, takes their mind off sex.
