A Party For The Elders
by Mrs. Witness inat the risk of outing myself and my hubby, i just had to run this by everyone to see if it was just me.... last night i attended a function that the women of hubby's hell put together to honor their boe.
there was much food and they put the guys up on a stage and played "name that elder" and then interviewed each one.
the mc of the event gave deep commentary regarding his feelings of each of the elders.. i thought the elders weren't special...that they were just regular joes with more responsibility...certainly not guys that should be lauded for doing what they have been given the "priviledge" of doing.... am i wrong?.

it started out by me asking him what his definition of politics is.
i asked because he sits watching cnn and knows all about the current campaign...and it occurred to me that he was "participating" in politics, albeit on the fringe.

Death in the Bible
by Mrs. Witness inthis morning it occured to me how much death is in the bible.
just off the top of my head: cain & abel, the flood, the guy who was going to sacrifice his son (isaac?
), the slaughter at jericho, jesus (and that includes torture), and all the death in revelation.

Calling all Non-JW spouses of JW's or others in mixed marriages!!
by Mrs. Witness inin therapy yesterday, i came to the conclusion that i've either got to figure out how to live with my jw hubby or abandon ship.
i'm looking for stories here...successful mixed marriages, divorce stories and how you got there, all of it.
i need to figure out my breaking point and others' experiences, i'm sure, will give me insight!

Where's the Great Crowd?
by Mrs. Witness insorry if this has been discussed ad nauseum, but i'm at work and don't have time to search...i'm having a discussion (argument) with my jw hubby about the location of the great crowd.
we've looked at rev.
