Where do you think evil (or bad behavior) comes from?
by wordlywife inbeing worldly i try to get my head around this sometimes, and wondered what others opinions are.
being that my husband is a long time witness i know what the witness view is, it is all satan's doing.
since most of you are "out", has your view on the source of evil/unacceptable behavior, (whatever you personally find just out-right wrong, for me it is child sexual abuse), changed?

Is this swearing, to a JW?
by wordlywife insaying "jesus" or "judas priest", as when watching a football game and a call or play is bad?
my jw husband does this frequently.. .
would this be considered swearing by the average witness?.

A thinking, reasoning person........
by wordlywife inthe debate with my husband over my step-daughter's df has begun, just barely.
he used a phase about me being "a thinking, reasoning person" and he doesn't understand why i don't "see" bible principles.
i said that phrase is an insult to me, and then it went sour.

Rant about the term "WORLDLY"!!!!
by wordlywife inmy husband was talking at the table with his young adult daughter last night.
for those of you that don't know, he is a long time witness, and his children are of course witnesses also.
we were married when he was df'd, and i knew all about him being a witness and wanting to return.

Bringing reproach on Jehovah's name? My step-daughter to be DF'd
by wordlywife inwhy is it considered that a person's bad/poor actions bring reproach upon god?
i don't understand this one bit when i hear my husband talk about it.
my stepdaughter is most likely going to be df'd soon (for being a typical teeneager as far as my worldly views).
