  Welcome Sevan,

  Thank you for your story. It's nice to see your husband is supporting you and doesn't mind if you leave.

  is physical and emotional abuse taken seriously in jws ?

  do they address this form of abuse that their members inflict on others?

  The religious leaders in WT mishandle domestic violence and other forms of abuse.

  Me and my family were victims of domestic violence. I have a YouTube explaining it and a JC meeting with the elders.

  If you are interested in hearing what they had to say let me know and I will post it on the thread.

  WoMD ... so where are they?

  now, the war is over, the weapons were not used and of course have not been found.. how threatening could they be if they did not even use them when being invaded by a massive force (of the countries they hate)?!

  perhaps, as many suspect, they didn't use them because they didn't have them?.

  now we're being told that we'll have to be patient and give them time to find them.

  Baker, Malc,

  The 1988 attack of chemical weapons in Iraq. Is not evidence that in 2003 Saddam had chemical weapons to use in the UK and US.

  Chilcot reported that nothing was found after troops invaded in 2003.

  Malc,

  The point is there were no chemical weapons. It was all false Intel. If Blair had investigated it properly he would have known it was false Intel.

  You can't just bomb other countries because you think there is a risk of them bombing your country. You need some kind of substantiated evidence to support the risk is likely and real.

  I too was against the attack and the British troops being sent to their deaths by Tony Blair.

  Chilcot exposed there was no evidence of chemical weapons and Blair acted on the false accusations from MI6

  British politicians eh?

  so some may have read the long and boring post about our last vacation and some of the things that my wife came to tell me during our time away.

  i am adding the link here but i can summarize it for time's sake.. https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/5768475763015680/vacation-time-reality-closing-up-on-my-wife.

  in a nutshell, right before we left, we found out of a jw couple we know well.

  What is the current suicide and mental illness rate among JWs and previous members

  by 060702015 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there seems to be no current data on this information and there is questions concerning the validation of past data.

  apparently there is high rate of mental illness and suicide.

  jehovahs witnesses suicide rate 5 to 10 times above average.

  Jesus Knows the Day & Hour Now?

  by KillerJones in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was skimming the july 2016 wt study article and came across a paragraph indicating that, despite scriptural evidence, the governing body indeed feels that god's son now knows the exact day and hour of armageddon.

  is this 'new light'?

  from the second study article, page 14, pgh 4:.

  I would love it if WT actually printed a date. That would be fun. It would be another 1975 fiasco.

  "more than half of the people in the u.k either aren't saving at all or they aren't saving enough to give themselves the standard of living they hope for" ( the money advice service).

  how do you have your retirement planned?.

  as for myself, i never botherd with putting money in a pension, i opted instead to invest in buy to let properties.

  Lol haha. I grew up in Hatch End actually. It was still a 01 for London phone number.

  At least we agree that the young can't actually buy property in London unless they have some sort of inheritance.
