    Wouldn't it be wonderful to see something like this about JWs some day?!

    Yeah, it would be really great!

    It would be really great if some people would agree to do something together that is free, anonymous, and easy. And yet only 3 people are willing. There are millions of ex-jws???

    "When you have dozens of people speaking out, it's no longer too credible to say they're all malcontents and criminals," said Jeff Hawkins, a former Scientology marketing guru who defected in 2005. "(The church) is either going to reform or collapse, and I think it's going to be the latter because they're incapable of reform or admitting any wrongdoing."

    "A small group of thoughtful people could change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."-Margaret Mead

    Defections, eh ? Damn, I'll bet the GBodies are wishin' they had thought of THAT word to describe apostates & disfellowshipped peeps. "Worldly" people always go, "disfellow--what ??"

    And..."Disconnected"...what a beauty of a Cult word ...it just drips love, er, contempt.

    My wife saw an article on the Scientology stuff going on and said that that religion is gone, there is trouble with it all all religion will soon be gone....now why is it when another faith has problems there are comments like that, but when the JWs have a problem it is all chalked up to persecution pointing to them as the true faith.......just wondering?
