My fiance has studied the bible for about 5 years, and wants very much to become a baptised JW. I had no religious inclinations before we met.
The more I learn, the more it makes sense.
My family is devestated that I would consider marrying a JW.
Mom and Dad aren't religous but love the holidays....
They have said they will not support me in getting married and that if we have children, they would view raising them as JW as child abuse.....
I would never be abusive to a child! I don't see not celebrating Birthdays and Christmas as abuse.
My family ( brother, sisters, parents and grandparents) have all said they are against this and the words "disowned" have been mentioned.
My fiance and I are very much in love, and I can not imagine being with out him.....but the guilt of turning my back on my family and their beliefs is aweful...
