She knows they're wrong, but she doesn't care . .
by indireneed ini posted some questions a while ago about my wife, and now i'm lost.
i put together a 200 page exposition on how the governing body are false witnesses using only watchtower literature (scans and the cd) and showing how they claim to be the salvation and that people shouldn't think for themselves, showed it to my wife, and she simply told me that she knew all those things and that if she could she would divorce me.
it's all in the bible.. the weird thing is though, the next morning, she pretended like things are fine.

How do you explain Christmas to a JW?
by indireneed ini've come upon a rather perplexing problem .
my wife, who became a jw after we married, recently decided to help me to understand how i am actually worshipping christmas and thus all sorts of terrible false gods.. this caught me so off guard i was unable to mount a good defense.
we just ended up fighting.. her case is the following:.

How to Disperse the UN Story
by indireneed inas i always am when i turn to your discussion board.. after reading the unbelievable news about the bestiality practiced by the governing body, i have been looking for a way to break the news in my local area.
i would really like to have the newspaper to pick up the story so it could in turn provoke a discussion with my wife.. i was thinking an opinion / letter to the editor article might help in this respect, and so i wrote one up.
i am posting it here to see if anyone has any comments or suggestions.. the worship of the seemingly powerful.

What's in a name?
by indireneed inlast wednesday i had the absolute joy of attending the theocratic ministry school and the sales meeting.
my wife was giving a talk and i chose to support her by being there to here her speech.. one thing i found extremely funny was a point they made about what 'the name' really means.
see if you think this makes sense:.

Incontrovertible Evidence
by indireneed ini am writing to gather consensus on what are the most incontrovertible evidences against jws.
i am working to 'deprogram' my wife and am trying to compile a list of those things that are the most difficult to stand against.. for example, i believe that the jw treatment of 'false prophets' and their distinction between those who are simply overzealous and those who are just plain wrong looks silly in the face of their historical blunders.. any opinions would be very helpful, especially with web-site references for good sources of information.. thank, y'all are super helpful.
