  Jehovah witnesses and life insurance

  by Steel in

  2. beliefs

  my wife was recently cornered by the elders about her blood card because she didn't have one.

  so one elder witnessed her sign it and he signed it and one elder made himself her health care agent.. with the memorial coming up i am thinking of maybe having a life insurance policy drawn up, maybe in the amount of 300 or 400 dollars a month and i will ask these two dipshits if they would like to sign it.

  it only seems fair they should be finicially responsible for my son since they made my wife sign a document endangering her safety.. what do you think?.

  "BUT-it is OUTRAGEOUS that they would ask to be her "representative"-- I don't know why you guys think that, I believe that is the way it is for all ubm's and possibly even for those suspected of being 'weak' jw's.

  Here is a story I heard- a guy was home sat morn and enjoying his wife on their couch, door knock, "let's ignore it!" , knock again, again they ignore the knock by the third knock and with time between each knock the kept thinking they would go away, by the third knock the guy was seriously annoyed. Finally he opens the door naked and the jw has the nerve to say, "you shouldn't open your door naked!" The guy had to explain that if someone does not open their door they may not want to be bothered, I was in the midst of making love to my wife and you refused to leave my door! of course I'm naked!" the jw's were still highly offended and had no concept of why the homeowner was miffed about having to answer his door when after the first knock they didn't leave.

  Yes, this guy loves to tell this story and spread the good news about nosy intrusive jw's who won't take no for an answer.

  In today's day I don't understand why anybody opens their door to these people or anybody for that matter. Remember a story a number of years back, down south maybe, where some jw's were actually casing homes to rob later? yeah, yeah, they weren't 'real' jw's, give me a break, they were baptized and went all the time, they were jw's.

  "She just kept saying how I was such a pussy "--- sounds like you could use this to your advantage with the elders. Is this something a submissive jw wife would say? did she egg you on?

  Get all your ducks in a row before you meet with any elders or agree to anything.

  2. friends

  kind of got into it with my jw wife last night for the first time in a long time.. i try to not engage in conversations about doctrinal matters unless she asks me which she did.. anyway, i wont go into details but of course i am "not going to change her mind" and "why is it that you can't see when very smart people can?

  " yada yada yada.

  you probably can imagine.. it makes me so depressed.

  The way we found peace (I am ubm, never been jw, he joined up later in life) was to finally quit talking about any jw crap all-together. The home is a neutral space, no jw literature and no apostate stuff out either. I have no idea why he skips out of meetings when he does but I am always happy when it happens. If he ever leaves jw litter out I will find the most vile stories about jw's and leave them out, without fail. Nice? perhaps not, but it works to keep the wt from being in my face 24/7 and from him reading it in front of me.

  I am a rabid 'apostate' (though I don't officially get the label) and have often delivered anti wt literature and he knew I did as did his entire cong. (I could deliver to 50-100 homes on my way to the grocery store)

  Maybe you should quit going to meetings? and make your home a place for you & your family leaving out all jw-ism or your apostate leanings. Make the home a sanctuary for your marriage.

  It takes quite some time and many tears to reach this point but in the end I have found it quite do-able and we are much happier. We go out, we do things and take vacations together.

  I still hate the wt, I hate meetings, conventions, etc..... I look to you guys to find out what is going on and when.

  It can work and yes, there will always be that wedge between you. That's what cults do. Will you let this puny cult destroy your marriage? or is it worth saving?

  I am of the opinion now after years of trying that a jw must come to TTATT on their own. Think of it this way, could you change the opinion of someone's long held political beliefs? same with religious beliefs especially when they employ thought control/thought stopping, etc... mind control? day after day, week after week of repetitive messages are not easily broken.

  If possible plan some weekends away with her. Yes, she will miss a meeting but so what? she can't catch up? is the marriage worth it to her?

  It is a strange dance we do when we on the rare occasion we bring up anything jw/religious related and speak without really saying it. Hard to describe and that last sentence probably doesn't even make sense.

  I (we) went through hell when he first joined up and I was panic stricken and scared to death. My health suffered. I was not myself.

  It can get better and even good again! really, it can. Will it ever be the same? no. But it can be good and fun again. Find the love and hang on tight. (yeah, pretty shmaltzy but what the heck....)

  Get an attorney versed in jw's & child custody now, before you are in a panic or in dire need. Just so you are aware of all your options. Do what you can to protect your children and teach them critical thinking skills. Perhaps when they are older and not required to see you via the courts they will have learned the truth about the truth and not shun you. Wishing you the best in this difficult situation.

  GB asks every JW to give Putin their home address

  by MrHappy in

  jw's around the globe have been encouraged to write letters to putin and the russian government.

  they are expected to give their personal details on the envelope.

  i appreciate that this might be normal when writing to your own government if they are tolerant, but is this not a bit strange that the gb want to give putin the address of every jw in the world?

  Weird. As a ubm I would not be happy if my jw gave our address and any other info out to anybody. I don't think Putin will give a rats behind about the letters about jw's.

  Though I often wonder why jw's at the door will not give me their address while they are visiting MY door and (later) writing down what I have to say. They won't even give out their names! Heck, they wouldn't even admit they were jw's when they used to come to our house. I would nearly have to browbeat it out of them, "are you jw's?!!!" Thankfully, my house must have big red x on it, stay away from that one! finally.

  How do you find out which kh territory you're in?

  these douche bags left a memorial invitation in my door today, after i have already told them point blank, "do not come to this property ever again," which was months after my trespassing letter.. how dumb can people possibly be?

  is there such a thing as an iq below zero?.

  so i want to send a 2nd letter with the tract ripped up inside, so i will have a 2nd receipt showing another attempt to get them to leave me alone.. how do i know which hall's territory i am in?

  Hey Rebel,

  They don't get it do they? You may have to send multiple letters, say one a week or so for awhile? I like the letter you supplied in the link but you could send the cease & desist one at the link below but the address for the wt needs updating. I do know if you send it to NY it will eventually reach back to the elders in your area. Worked for me anyway.

  https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/153587/cease-desist-letter

  Though I was making a stink with my jw so that probably helped. I also threatened to show up at the kh during a meeting with some paid muscle to protect me, go to the front with a blow up picture of our house and address and tell the whole damn cong that this house was a no call and then leave. Yep, that seemed to help too.

  They are not the brightest bulb so it takes a bit for them to understand you don't want them on your property or their trash.
