Hay, very one loves a good story.
middle tenn late 70s.
first there was the child the high school girl had out of wedlock.
the term rape was bandied about after she began to show.
BFD
I remember one like that too...It was the Azusa Califorina Congergation about 1968.
This guy come into the "truth" to marry this sister, has they are walking out of the hall after the wedding...He turns to her and says "Thats the last time I'm ever going back in there!" Their marriage ended about 10 years later.

"there is an esoteric agenda behind every facet of life that was once believed to be disconnected.
there is an elite faction guiding most ... all every political, economic, social, corporate, some non-governmental or even anti-establishment organizations.
Very good!
I agree with 95% fo it which is huge.
NEW BOY...opps I mean New Boy
middle tenn late 70s.
first there was the child the high school girl had out of wedlock.

My Sister married this real winner, his name was George Pinzari...Anyway my father (inactive at the time) knew this guy was going to be real trouble, so he offered him $10,000 bucks to not marry my sister...and to get out of her life!
George said "no way" and told my sister..Both of them gave my father a bunch of shit because of the offer.
I must say I thought it a little strange too. I was a self rightious Bethellite at the time, on vacation.Now I see the pure wisdom in it.
So they got married out in our back yard. It had to be over 90 degrees that day we had wool tuxs on.
Oh, by the way George hadn't sleep in 2 days, he was trying to catch up on all his janitoral work, before the honeymoon...he looked real bad and was very nervous.
So I got a bottle of Jack Daniels and gave him a few shots.
So back to the wedding....hotter then hell...This guy starts giving the wedding talk from hell. Starting with Adam and Eve...we lost our first brides maid 25 minutes into the talk...passed out, fell flat on her face.
15 minutes later with no end in sight, the speaker looks at George (who looks green) and says "Are you alright?" To which George says "No"..
My father stands up and says "Your not backing out of this!".....Everyone laughs. They get George a chair to set down on. A wet towel over his head, my sister standing next to him. What a sight.
After the hour talk it's over. George walks pass me in the wedding procession and says "I'll never forgive you for that."....funniest damn wedding I was ever at.
P.S Six years later when their marriage was toast...and my sister left George, George went to my father and asked him, if the offer for the 10k was still good...My dad chased him out of the house. What a winner!
i am not sure if anyone has asked this before but i am curious.
does anyone know approximately how many of us have left the watchtower society in the past 20 years.
it seems to me that it is compounding monthly lately.
Well since you wanted to know
438,789...as of 10 minutes ago..opps
438,790!
or, at least made progress in healing yourselves.... right now i feel like i have made a lot of progress.. i did the following that helped tremendously:.
joined this forum!
faced my husband regarding how i felt and feel that we have met eachother 1/2 way on this - even researched and prepared how to talk to him in a better way (i have a blunt, tactless way of bringing things up - in case you guys didn't notice, lol.
You are on the fast track my friend....
All this just since the first of the year...
You are doing in months, things that many haven't done in years.
Keep up the good work!
there are so many.... i remember my exfather inlaw...ben regan, he was made an elder in newport r.i and that's enough to make you doubt the whole holy spirit thing right there.. i was sitting in his living room one sunday and the phone rings...some poor black sister just got the crap beat out of her and she was crying to him on the phone, she was looking for help.. ben said.
"well you must have done something really bad to make him so mad at you...i know but...what you need to do is just have another beer and forget the whole thing"....good by.. thank god must women are not putting up with this anymore, from their husbands or religions that really don't care about them.

This bull shit came from the very TOP down.
It is a male dominated organization just look at Knorr and the rest of the "good old boys."
I seem to remember WT articles telling wifes to stay with unbeleiving husbands who were abusive "So by their actions the scum bags might come into the borg too"....what logic!
Be a punching bag for the lord!
back in november the wife of someone who i had been engage to, many years ago, died.
i sent a card of condolence to him.
he googled my name, found my email addy and responded.
Who knows...maybe you can help him "out."
how many here have had jw friends that can only have a good time when they drink?
i've known plenty - ones with obvious drinking problems.
not necessarialy alcoholics, but ones that equate good times with drinking, and drinking alone.
Personally.....I don't drink anyone...
I don't drink any less...either
