My 21 year marriage ended because she chose JWs over our marriage after I became an apostate.
We both agreed the only way for us to save the marriage was for her to quit or for me to return.
Neither of those are going to happen...

Just asked JW wife to quit
by rathernotsay inso i wont get into why i asked my jw wife to leave... theres another thread for that lol... but more out of pure curiosity i asked her just now... "in order to save this marriage would you leave the jws?
", it was a snap call no, like not even a second to pause and think about it, which kinda took me back a bit, followed by a angry "why would you ask me that now?
" (shes going out witnessing with my kids and her friends).

Nothing in life is stable as a Jehovah's Witness...
by silentbuddha inat least in hindsight it would appear so.
i remember as a small kid not making friends because ultimately they were going to die.
i never saved anything because money would be useless in the new world.

It was a false sense of security.
Disappointing is the understatement of the overlapping century... -

Wouldn't be great if it was trump that convinced Russia to stop persecuting the JW's
by nowwhat? inafter all those prayers and letters that didn't do squat.
and it was trump that helped the russian brothers.
then what would the jdub's say?

I'd rather see Putin tell Trump what the ORG really is and move him to investigate the dubs in the USA.

Why remove John 8:1-11 in the NWT if these verses speak highly of Jesus
by I_love_Jeff ini understand these verses were removed in the nwt as well as some other bibles because they were added later & considered uninspired.
jesus protected an adultress so why remove it?
it fits in nicely with his teachings, does it not?

NWT 1984 vs NWT 2013
by Tallon ini recently had a discussion with a jw concerning a change in wording of a scripture - in fact this was my all time favourite scripture, namely, micah 6:8.. my view is that the wtbts have deliberately changed the wording and meaning of the said scripture.
the other person is of the opinion that that is not the case.
micah 6:8.

I am baffled that John 8:1-12 was removed from their bible.
It's a verse that makes judging and shunning impossible if you claim to be Christian.

I feel sorry for the dear older ones ( like my soon to be JW ex-wife ).
They will finally see that they were wrong and it will crush them.
Such a tragedy.
Wasted lives. -

Receiving so much hate recently....
by stuckinarut2 inwell, as you all know, my wife (unstuck) and i are not df or da.. we just stopped attending several years back after my "apostate" online activity was found by a nosey employee of ours while she was working in our office (long story if anyone wants to know - it would have to be another thread).
we never met with any elders - no congregation judicial activity occurred (as we would never consent to do so anyway).
so our policy has been to be the same kind, loving, normal people we have always been.

It seems that the ORG manipulated their/our minds to the point where we didn't have real relationships based on love or trust. It was an ILLUSION.
True love does not shun.
We were under mind control. They still are.It's a nightmare
