  oh yes it is that time of year again.

  the time that my dogs hide when football starts because of my husband screaming at the tv.

  do you scream at the tv knowing that the players can not hear you?

  Thought I'd read it all....

  this is about one of the strangest "philias" i've ever read about.

  do you think the witnesses would consider this "porneia"?

  would a person be disfellowshipped for an amputation?

  Gosh this is too weird. Just my perspective, coming from the angle of someone who had a brother in a trauma center for 3 months due to a motorcyle accident. He HAD to have 3 amputations on one leg, and what a terrible ordeal for him, both physically, psychologically, emotionally. I cant fathom someone intentionally wanting this, after what I saw him go through, and after what he still goes through, 12 years later.

  I know Simon, I sat there with tears rolling down my face when my husband was watching this on the news. They showed childrens shoes, blood on items like pipes or wood, I dont know, why? Why do they have to show us all this disturbing graphic detail? We get the horrible point already. Guess its about getting the scoop, beating out the competition.

  i am not a jw, my spouse is getting way into it -- 4 times a week.

  i am not sure what she is doing - and i am not interested in jw -- it is not for me or my children.

  a sister was coming to my home -- without my consent and giving a "study" to my children.

  found my youngest in the back seat of a car with two sisters. When I asked what my chld was doing in the car they said they weren't dong anything wrong. they never answer directly...

  Call the police. Elders have no legal authority, cops do. There are two strange women (? I assume) in the back seat of a car with your child. Doesnt sound right no matter whether religion is involved or not. Maybe I am over reacting a little, but if you came home and found your child in the back seat of a car with any adult, and you did not know about the witness thing, wouldnt that be just too weird? And, maybe that would teach them to quit it, it would scare them. Elders nope, not the route to go.

  Also, along the lines of Dmouses comment. Ask your wife what their policy is on Disfellowshippin and shunning. That is one things they do not tell you about up front. You dont find out until it is too late. This policy has destroyed many many familes and lives.

  I am sorry you are facing this right now. Stay on top of it, it means your family.
