  My wife and I have suffered through two miscarriages. You can't really understand it until you experience it. The best thing you can do for her is SUPPORT her! She thinks it is her fault, that she is less of a women. She probably hasn't told you that. Reassure her. Whatever you do, never blame her, and don't let her second guess herself. "Maybe if I hadn't walked up the stairs so fast, or if I had only slept more and eaten better." Those are the kinds of irrational thoughts that a women who has miscarried will feel.

  She feels a sense of profound loss that us men can never begin to understand. Take the loss you feel right now and multiply it my a million.

  I hope the best for both of you!

  with all the emphasis on kh builds, construction work has long been emphasized in watchtower world.

  do you enjoy construction?

  my dad did it for awhile and is quite handy.. lots of people get great satisfaction out of it.

  There do tend to be a lot of JW construction workers. I guess they're training for all the rebuilding they're gonna do after the big guy in the sky gets done with his magic wrecking ball. I wonder if they'll put windows in all the new buildings in paradise?

  Transparency

  by truthsetsonefree in

  president obama just stated that if he doesn't want something disclosed is not enough.

  that determination must be confirmed by a separate authority.

  simply because one has the legal power to withhold something does not mean that they always should.

  My sister called! I've written her a letter...

  by Confession in

  2. experiences

  i was working in corpus christi this past weekend, when my sister called out of the blue on sunday.

  she, like the rest of my family, is a very zealous jw, and since i am recognized as an apostate, i haven't seen nor spoken to her in about four years.

  i was completely shocked that she called.

  What a wonderful letter Jon! I hope you don't mind, but I've saved portions to use as reference for my own letter. Glad to hear that you are enjoying some peace and love in your life.

  Nicely done Coondog! Both in your conversation and in being back in college! I've also decided to get my degree. I've been plugging away part time since 2005 and have finally reached the point that I can devote myself full time to it.

  Like many here, I feel as if my childhood were stolen from me. Now that we have wised up and are back in school, how frustrating is it to see JW's there as well hawking their message. If anything a college campus should be a JW free zone, yet they even have the audacity to try and ruin that for us.

  One more point, my beautiful wife will graduate this spring with honors! I am so very proud of her! She was one of the most hardcore JW's I ever knew. She pioneered throughout high school, went to pioneer school, and financed her way to the Dominican Republic right after graduation to witness for a summer. It took years for her to see the light. She finally read CoC, and never looked back. She went right to college, applied for one of the most difficult and highly selective programs on campus, and kicked the $hit out of it. This spring she will walk down the aisle with colors around her neck, and her head held high!

  Any of us can do this. JW's have stolen much from us, but they do not have to take the rest of our lives.....we can chart our own paths!

  ok. so this farmer dies for 7 minutes and goes to heaven.

  he returns with this information:.

  president-elect obama will never take office.. bush will extend his term until "the problem" can be resolved.. violence will erupt within the usa due to "this problem".

  You just can't make this stuff up. Why can't more of these nut jobs be like the Hale-Bopp Comet cult and just punch out?

  Deconstructing Apostasy - New Video

  by Moxie in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  my apologies for not posting this here sooner, but i've been swamped with a very big project... one that i will share with you in the not too distant future.. this is my most recent youtube video and addresses a subject i've identified as extremely important to many of us ex witnesses.. it's called deconstructing apostasy, and basically it examines apostasy according to watchtower... my hope is that the message will start to break down the barriers of what an apostate is and how the watchtower uses that term to effectively subjugate its members by silencing any conscientious questioners.. hopefully you'll be able to see it below, otherwise here's the link (it's best viewed on youtube in high definition) - deconstructing apostasy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3j5hkv2cnw.

  It's funny that FiveShadows started an entire new thread just to clear the air; and the two arguers are both here touting their respective sides.

  Now I've been in a few heated online discussions before, so I know how easy it is to get sucked into one; but come on guys give it a rest already. Why don't you both go hug it out or something? It's obvious that both of you are VERY good people with good intentions.
