Somehow I keep hitting a nerve. Why is that? I'm nobody!
Here is the again infamous post I made that Alanf seemed to think was some sort of attack on HS.
Hillary,
You said: "Well, you have to admit it most DA letters are boring"
I know your post was a spoof but I just wanted to say that many of us who chose DA did so over life and death matters; what we thought was life with God or death with the slime that led the Watchtower!!
You make the mistake in thinking these questions are open for jovial jocular repartee, sorry they are not. You do not understand!!
Have you left yet? If you have left tell us why, if you have not left please tell us why not. It is not a light matter is it?

Island Women,
Just relax for a moment. Click on the image just below your profile that shows threads that you have started. Read your own threads.
You are well aware of the destructive pain that you caused others on this Board a few weeks ago but seemed to have learned little from the experience and now you want to start a scrap again. I have been very patient with you in the past, despite the fact that you publicly published portions of a private e mail that I sent to you last April, an unforgivable intrusion on my privacy.
You have no justification for taking the high ground over any issue IW, given your track record. I would also put it to you that your concern with my affairs and those of my friends is a little on the obsessive side and I would respectfully suggest that you look to yourself.
It seems to me that contentiousness and mischief are part of your life. Please do not make them part of mine.
I will not respond to any further comments by you that deliberately try to inflame the Board to wars.

I know I sounded hard on HS, but it was NOT AN ATTACK it was a call for sympathy! Not for me, but for all the little Raymond Franz's out there, the little brother or sister who has lost so much, who would like to be able to be heard but are not. That's all it was!
I was just trying to say that some of us are hurting so bad, so bad.
So bad that we cannot joke about it because we have lost so much, we may not have the name of Raymond Franz or Dunlap but we have lost just as much, EVERYTHING!
The words from Hillary;
"You have no justification for taking the high ground over any issue IW, given your track record."
Prompted the topic, "How long has this been going on".
Why? Because I am sick and tired of some xJWs feeling they are God's gift to Apostates! HS was vilified when he first posted here, he was put down badly yet he has found the "new light": Play the Game and You Will be Accepted!
That's OK, we each should have the right not only to our opinion but our choice of friends. I would just like to have that right too!
When the American Colonies rebelled against England and won their Revolution they were for some time anglophobic, they distrusted anything that smacked of the English Monarchy.
I have left another Monarchy, the Watchtower monarchy, I too distrust anything and anyone who sounds or acts as they have.
If my posts here are too inflamatory etc., then I request Simon to close my account because I will continue to speak my mind.
What AlanF feels is attacks etc., is no more than free expression, yes, I do at times oppose the prevailing winds, excuse me!!!!
On Randy's site there is a tape recording by Raymond Franz, on it he said that at times when speaking to some former JWs he feels as if he is back with the Governing Body. I too have felt that way, AlanF has proven that my "feelings" are not false ones!
