    No, no one peed in my cheerios LOL....Unfortunately, though....any question within the orginization is generally regarded as "a complaint" And no I don't believe JEHOVAH WOULD do these things at all!!!! I am arguing with others interpretations. I believe that is what other would have me believe, and I'm saying....no...I'm not going to believe anymore that he would do things like this. And we do have a different concept of time and space than spirit creatures, The scriptures even tell that Jehovah views one thousand years as a day. I mean..to a human, when they hear about things that happened in 1500 it's ancient history, but in reality it only happened 500 years ago, only half a day for God! And I'm just saying that the God that others would have me believe in, would let his children continue to endure death and pain for thousands and thousands of years...It just doesn't make sense to me, and never has...not after 30 years of bible study.

    And I truly feel bad that I was so forceful in my letter that I wrote...Just 30 years of pent up emotion coming out in one fell swoop I'm afraid.<as open discussion *without WTBTS info in hand* in not the forte of Jehovah's Witnesses> I have never been allowed free thought, and it is only now that I finally have had to the courage to attempt my first pitiful efforts at it. unfortunately I guess I botched it up a bit. <sigh> Please, please don't everyone think I'm awful? I'm not really....I've been crying for 3 days straight worrying that I totally freaked everybody out at the KH.

    Eyes,

    Unfortunately, I didn't get to see your questions, but from most of the responses you've received, I'd say they must have been good ones.

    Welcome to the board.

    Hey guys :) I had just posted a copy of the letter I had sent to the sister who told me it ok to send her any questions I had. I'm afraid however my letter was a bit sarcastic around the edges <not what I really intended...but I come from a family of wise guys and this is just a way of speaking for us>

    Sure Sass It had a Subject at one time...then I felt bad about having sent the letter so I took it off, as well as the subject line, but now I've brought it back as there were a few who wanted to take a peek. I am one dizzy wench. What was I doing again? <looking around>
    I don't know if you can tell, but I'm new to this message group business.....
