    Hi Rosalie, I am "Restrangled" not the hubby. I have been reading this thread over it's several day progression, and have refrained from responding.

    I must ask you some questions that might have been asked several times. Maybe I missed the answers, but would you please answer the following in a straightforward, honest manner?

    I am not accusing you of anything, calling you names or attributing ulterior motives and I would appreciate the same from you.

    Why, if you don't have any doubts, are you here?

    Were you looking to convince someone on this board whether it be a poster or lurker to change their thinking, feelings, or viewpoint?

    Do you have questions of your own that are difficult to admit to and yet feel you have to defend your integral beliefs?

    Why are you fighting so fiercely on a website that is absolutely banned by the Governing Body?

    Thanks r for asking these questions once again. If Rosalee can be honest with herself, she may be ok.

    Carla won't have any trouble copying this thread in it's entirety to show off typical JW responses. Way to go rosalee!

    Perhaps a general apology(a sincere one) directed at those you've offended is in order.

    Nvr, you will never read a sincere apology from Rosalee, because that would mean Rosalee would have to have ''Christian'' qualities that Rosaleee professes to posess, but has proven otherwise by her words, and disrespect of those here.

    Actually Rosalee did not apologize at all. Her statement of "apology" was more of her condemnation of the people here.

    That is dead on correct.

    Exactly Gary1914! I hope Rosalee can get the help she needs. Her behavior is antisocial. But close association with the WTS can have that effect on even the best of persons.

    Nvr

    to assume she could be lumped in with the ''best of persons'' takes a very good imagination, but we can imagine the impossible nonetheless

    nevergoingback:

    You say I am antisocial.

    Webster's : 1. avoiding association with others; unsociable.

    On the contrary, I am very sociable. On every occasion, I try to converse with all and every person I can. The last thing I'd do is avoid being around people.

    It would appear that you and your friends here fit the description quite well. Rather than going out among the general population, you isolate yourselves in this 'safe cacoon', where you continually cry foul for supposed past misdeeds.

    If normal people kept to themselves like you lot do, society in general would be in much worse shape.

    Time for a reality check .. one and all.

    When I left the borg, I asked my non witness family to forgive me for any offence that I had caused in word or deed while I was a JW.

    They all smiled and said they had already forgiven me (even though sometimes my "making a stand" drove them nuts) You see I felt I had to give a good witness, it was my way of proving I had faith........

    Rosalee..................you have really made me cringe, that maybe, just maybe I had the same arrogant, self righteous attitude as you have. You may not think it but you are displaying the WT to a T, well done. And that my friend has nothing to do with doing God will or doing what the bible tells us.

    I just wanted to add that if ever you want to be completely honest, about the witness world, and have any doubts or questions, the majority here will completely embrace you, as would I

    Wow, I am stunned that this thread continues. Why is anyone answering Rosalees broad, unsupported assertions. It is only the most ignorant of people that believe that only members of their cult truly worship God. Rosalee is regurgitating, there is no logic behind it. When the mind is in that state nothing will get through to it. (Though i must admit that is some benfit as anyone reading this thread will see quite clearly the conceit that witnesses hold.)

    jwfacts:

    Your words:

    "Wow, I am stunned that this thread continues."

    YOU just posted on it and wonder why??????

    "There is no logic behind it." YOUR words.

    How much logic is there in posting on a thread and then wondering why it is still around?
