Bikerchic, it was Brian Regan. He makes me laugh til I cry.
Zeroday--I am sure the bright light keeps "getting brighter" on this subject.
lisavegas420--sure, go for the gold on that one!
thanks for the love, hugs & advice. It is nice to have a place to go to be understood. I don't think I could stress that enough.

Yes, Indeed. That's when you hit them with this:
Watchtower February 1881 p.188
If we were following a man undoubtedly it would be different
with us; undoubtedly one human idea would contradict another
and that which was light one or two or six years ago would be
regarded as darkness now: But with God there is no
variableness, neither shadow of turning, and so it is with truth;
any knowledge or light coming from God must be like its
author. A new view of truth never can contradict a former truth.
"New light" never extinguishes older "light," but adds to it. If
you were lighting up a building containing seven gas jets you
would not extinguish one every time you lighted another, but
would add one light to another and they would be in harmony
and thus give increase of light: So is it with the light of truth; the
true increase is by adding to, not by substituting one for another.
It may be an old Watchtower but effective.
My best deals in life have been the bad deals I got out of. A contingent relationship with a domineering controlling bigot is a bad deal. It's been a good deal for me to allow those people identify themselves and remove themselves from my life.
I'm not able to grieve getting a jerk out of my life. There's no person living on the earth who started shunning me who has the power to stop the shunning and talk to me as before. By their choice they're gone and I'm glad.
