"Not Easily Broken" as an eyelid opener for a spouse?
by NeverKnew innot if your spouse is totally indoctrinated but maybe for one with an eyelid open?....
i was asked to watch the movie "not easily broken" with morris chestnut and taraji henson.
i believe my focus was supposed to be on the results of a couple losing sight of the proverbial threefold cord but as the movie progressed, i was struck by something quite different.. the wife is completely caught up with the perceptions of her peer group, the husband has grown weary of fighting for his wife's attention and affection and lastly we have a meddling mother-in-law whose influence over the daughter heavily contributes to the downward spiral of the marriage.

Creating the appearance of transparency to mitigate the appearance of impropriety
by NeverKnew inso, as a non-jw, one of the queries i leverage after taking them to realities within their literature is, "why do the 'worldlies' know this stuff about your religion and you don't?
why didn't they explain the evolution of your doctrines?
" ...and "who really is the faithful and discreet slave and how is the information transmitted again?

Pre-registration process for salvation
by NeverKnew inso, i understand that if you are a partaking jw, you are indicating that you believe you're pre-destined for a heavenly slot and if you are a non-partaking jw, you're indicating that you're going out for the earthy deal.. what is this... a section 8 lottery?.
what makes one believe that they get to shot-call their own fate?
for those who believe in a creator, i gotta believe that if your creator tells you you're going to pluto - you're going to pluto.

For those of you having a tough time integrating...
by NeverKnew ini've been noticing posts that speak of feelings that only others that have been there could possibly understand.
some of the voices belong to imprisoned circumstantially trapped and other voices, the ones that seem to feel the deepest emotional despair, are the ones suffering the cruelest form of human punishment in being cut from a network of family and life-long friends.
the more i read, the more i realize the blessings i've taken for granted.

it seems like i remember it being about 128 pages long and included yoga and exercise program limitations.
could it have been a correspondence department booklet?
