The Memorial...
by Justice-One indoes anyone still go to the memorial?
i was just thinking that although i made it quite clear to my wife that i was not going to go to anymore meetings or conventions (i made a comment about not wanting to be there when the kool-aid came out) that i caught myself thinking the other day that i might go to the memorial just to keep her happy.
but then i thought why?

I too have thought about this. Since my fade has turned into more of a vanish the shock has taken my family and friends by surprise. I've already been invited to an assembly, which I plan on NOT attending, but the memorial I'm not so sure about. I probably will go, albeit to a different hall, just to keep things calm. I sure don't look forward to it though.

however most mags over here - the women's mags at least have a page devoted to comments from readers where readers write in and say they were moved/hated/loved/laughed at articles in previous issues and the best letter gets a prize.
That is correct, my wife's fav. woman mag has at least 1 page dedicated to that....BUT..it is also 190+ pages long and the letters sent are usually a fair mixture of praise and criticism.

The first time I visited NY Bethel a friend took me up to the library at the top of the 90 Sands building. They had every magazine imaginable up there. For some reason Sports Illisustrated stuck in my mind though.

Need marital advice
by lost_light06 ini need some serious advice.
i just found out my wife has been emailing some guy she met at her work.
she gave him her cell # and said she wanted to get together and connect.

What made me suspect is we were getting emails from myspace saying she had new myspace messages from her brother's friend. I don't know her brother's friend very well so I thought it was odd they were emailing each other so much. So I checked her myspace email account. Turns out the messages between her and her bro's friend were totally benign, nothing to worry about, but I found these other messages from this guy she works with.

We are both young, mid 20's. She was really upset with me 8 mo's ago when i told her I didn't believe the "truth" anymore. We have 2 young kids together and I truly love her so, Yes, saving my marriage is very important to me. WC, while I appreciate your advice and would do it if I knew she was cheating the fact is I don't know whats going on. She only first emailed this guy 2 days ago but she has twice asked to connect with him and I think she has called him or text messaged him.

I need some serious advice. I just found out my wife has been emailing some guy she met at her work. She gave him her cell # and said she wanted to “get together” and “connect”. I found out about it because we have been getting emails saying she has new myspace messages. I knew she had a myspace account but never checked it out and didn’t know her password. I got curious so I had her password emailed to our home account. I checked it and saw these messages between her and this guy.
Here’s my question. Since the way I found out about it could be viewed as invading her privacy do I confront her about it now or wait until I have more evidence. My fear is that by waiting something more might happen and I’ll lose my wife. I really need some good advice.

"....you will be like gods, knowing good and evil."
by Lilycurly ini know this has been mentioned before, but i'd like to bring that question to the front again.
not only from a jw's perspective, but also from all other christians.. who lied to man and woman in the eden story?.
yahweh god says to men: 17 "nevertheless of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you are not to eat, for on the day you eat of it you shall most surely die.

I think the assumption is supported by the fact that the serpent in Genesis does appear to be directly in philosophical opposition to Yahweh, much as Satan appears to be.
Yes, but the Good vs. Evil concept is present in all stories therefore you can’t make that claim simply because there is an evil opposition to God in the Adamic account. I’m no scholor, barely literate really, but it seems to me the mere mention of Satan in the bible isn’t until much later (many centuries). Making that assumption is saying “Satan is God’s nemesis so the Serpent must be Satan”. There is no way of knowing if “Satan” as he is understood in Revelation was even a concept at the time of Genesis. -

also about the snake being the same person as Satan:"so the great dragon was cast out , the serpent of old, called the devil and satan, who deceives the whole world"......Rev 12:'9
That scripture is in Revelation which was written centuries later. The Genesis account does not specify the serpant was Satan therefore to say he was is simply an assumpition by the WT, the writer of Revelation and anyone else who makes that claim.
