  Yes ,it was a sad situation. I wonder if she had told him upfront maybe the marriage would

  have survived, but the the guy was still coming around even after they became JW's.

  Denying him some good that we should attribute to him, willfully degrading things

  relating to him. Humm, like the million of people he have killed in his name.

  My family are certified top rated shunners,they would shun J.C. if he appeared.

  I bet you they practice on the most effective way to shun you, they are good.

  They have polished their skills to near perfection.

  A young couple we were very close to, we both got baptized at the same assembly.

  I knew the young man well, we went through grade school and high school together.

  He served in the military also, he married before shipping out to Viet Nam.

  I had heard of rumors about his wife while he was overseas. This guy was a virgin when he got

  married, raised in a strict religious family.

  Two years of marriage they were baptized as JW. The rumors were our friend and his wife.

  OK, two years passed(4 years as JW's) and our friend came to town and dropped by to see him (he the JW

  had also heard the rumors). Well he decided to squash the rumors and told his friend, my wife

  told me what happen while I was overseas. Well he got an ear full and it just destroyed, he told

  our friend to leave and never return and he called his wife (she wasn't home) and the elders.

  She and the elders arrived around the same time. He told the elders he want a divorce, the wife

  told him she was sorry.

  The elder told him, this happen before you became a JW and must try to forgive but you don't

  have grounds for a divorce, it's been over 4-5 years since this happen.

  I saw the brother( not a JW) a few years back they divorced after 15 years, he told me he could not get over it, (adultery).

  But he remarried and is very happy.

  But the stupid elder, "this happen before you became a JW", as if adultery is fine if you are not a JW.

  l think the real figure would be a real nail in the coffin for jw believers.lf the elders knew what l knew they would have a field day.many many jdubs live a double life.lovey dovey at the hall and totally different people at home and work.my guess is many dubs are schizophrenic and in need of help.with all the brain washing lm not surprised.what have others observed.

  The wife and I discussing blessing and being tested by Jehovah. Most of her friends church going

  folks and so are my friends and family. The wife and I are having a wonderful life, we are not

  church people so are we blessed or tested by God? Her friends health and financial problems, but

  when you talk with them they are being tested by God, the same with JW family members.

  What is the point for a believer to be tested for his or her faith, they believe in you GOD.

  I guess Satan is blessing me and he don't test people.

  So we have GOD testing you your whole life and maybe some favors in between and Satan don't

  give a damn what you do and you receive gifts from him.

  My JW family tell me Satan is tricking me. LOL

  It should be one test, Do you believe in me and that's it.....

  Speaking of Trump, today after a round of golf with my 8 year old grandson we

  stopped at the store to pick up some items. While checking out he ask the cashier how

  was her day. She said good and thanks for asking and then ask him how did he become

  so polite. He told her I have always been this way. And then he ask her do you like D. Trump.

  I stopped him right there, but she laugh and told him you may be president one day and if

  I'm around I will vote for you. There was one lady behind us in line waiting and I was so happy

  there wasn't a long line of folks. As we were walking out he was still talking to the cashier and

  telling her, Trump is a bad man don't vote for him. She was laughing out loud.

  When we got in the car I told him, don't discuss religion or politics with people you don't know. LOL

  I wish Jehovah would give us the stright dope on what is bad and what is good.

  I'am sure telling lies are bad (world end in 1975), that's a big one.

  So they hate us because we expose their lies, all we are trying to do is to free them

  from ruthless leaders and tell them the truth....

  Help us out Jehovah....
