    I miss Dansk and his positivity.

    Hillary's being misunderstood, is an understatement. But I'm sure he loved pushing buttons. He was like your aggravating kid brother at times or your college professor always showing the class he was still in charge.

    HS could get away with his 'banter', ONLY because this is an internet discussion board.

    Just TRY speaking to someone like he did................... in person.

    Hillary seemed to understand that life after the wts was difficult but that if we didn't pick ourselves up off the floor we would sink even further.

    Warlock you are so so wrong about HS and you too Minimus, he is charming, caring and kind. If people are going to put forward arguments here and in person, should they mind having their assertions challenged, if sometimes in a somewhat robust fashion?

    My friends whilst being very very different have two things in common, they are honest with me and are not afraid to challenge me; and that is the way i personally like it.

    Surely that was the point of this thread ?

    ps

    BTS always makes me think but i do not always agree with him.

    Besty too

    hillary_step is one of the most kind, caring, highly intelligent and big hearted people I've ever met in this life. Maximus was another, but that's a different thread.

    Having said that, I know HS enjoyed being misunderstood. I don't quite understand why, but then I'm a bear of very little brain.

    But back to the original intent of this thread, and that is AlanF's thread about homosexuality and pedophila in the Governing Body. Nina was teetering towards leaving when I first came on this board, and that thread really hit her more than any other. Bloody gobsmacked she was.

    Leoleia is a wealth of information.

    I wish I had a brain like Leoleia's.

    Three posters have really helped me grow as a person:

    Leoleia – for the encouragement to research and examine the motives, situation and contemporary writings when assessing beliefs and the bible and for reinforcing the fact that any spiritual search is path that unique to each individual.

    AuldSoul – for proving from the Bible that many of the Witness' beliefs are false. What comes immediately to mind are his comments on baptism, the Bible Teach Book, the other sheep…… and many others.

    Alan F. – for doing the same thing as AuldSoul but from a scientific perspective. He has a blog somewhere with a wealth of information pertaining to the flood of Noah, the Creation Book and similar subjects.

    Thanks to all three of you!

    Warm regards,

    zarco

    When I first started reading this board everyone was a stranger as far as I knew. Then I saw a poster on here that I grew up with. That really helped in making me feel that I'm not alone in my thinking. You know who you are, buddy. Maybe our kids will marry and we'll have aposta-grandchildren LOL.
