What should I do?
by MrsBee inlong story short, hubby is a dfd dub who is trying to get back wasnt raised one, became one when he was like 25 .. anyhoo, i have issues with the dubs due to knowing so many kids in my hs who were miserable growing up, but ive been to the kh a few times once when i was an impressionable teenager open minded to what they had to say due to my boyfriend at the time.
they made a statement about all other religions are babylon or harlots or something like that and i knew from that point on that i would never be a part of it.
fast forward to a few yrs ago me and hubby met back up after being separated for 10 years he said he used to be a dub, i said r u going back, he said prob not.

Some Advice .... for an UBM
by MrsBee inmy husband is a dfd dub even though he still believes all the crap.. .
we have a discussion yesterday where i basically said i feel like i was bamboozled because i didnt really have the option to choose.
if i had the choice, knowing what i know (growing up around a lot of jws in my life) i wouldnt make the choice to marry into the religion because i think its wacked, lol .

Looking for some help about marriage
by Matt_fs inhope this isnt a repost, couldnt find anything on the subject.. have a friend who is marrying a jw.
he isn't a jw but she is (even though she doesnt really go or believe in it), her parents are strict jw's but wont goto their wedding cause of something about being unevenly yoked?
now they both want her parents to go, but the parents tend to think they are not allowed to go.

Misleading advice at the Hall.
by edmond dantes inwords of wisdom at the kingdom hall went something like " don't marry for looks because looks fade.
" what i want to know is if the person you married turns out to be a crabby old miserable so and so how do you cope with ugly personality plus ugly looks.i mean if you marry a looker at least you have enjoyed some vision of delight, if you get stuck with both you are in a double bind.

Anyone heard this one about Home Studies??
by aniron ini picked this up on another forum the poster said the following.. i was also told by a witness at the door that they are no longer doing real home bible studies with new 'suckers'.
instead they are doing 'doorstep studies' because everyone is 'so busy'.
in other words they can't get anyone to let them in for an hour so they now call their little 'preach and runs' bible studies.

New Watchtower - Who is the Antichrist?
by TheKings ini admit to being curious as soon as i saw this new bit of propoganda put on the dining room table 'casually' in my view by my mother.
i know i can't look at any of the magazines without being questioned why...so i took a look while i had some private time.. what a fine lot of manure... :p. .
they must be getting scared in brooklyn.
