It's like a train wreck...I can't stop reading it. The dubs posting there look like such fools....I want to run outside and scream, hit my head with a brick, then go and drink a martini.
Elohim Dammit...this is frustrating.

I added two comments on that thread. (I used my real name). I pointed to my article about Whitney (http://ex-jw.com/tragedy-in-gresham-oregon) and have had over 200 hits originating from that posting.
There is a lot of arguing about doctrinal issues and the whole thing has veered away from anything supporting Whitney and her family.
My comment was in response to an obvious JW girl who spewed a total lie about Ray Franz. Here is my segment of that thread:
----------------------------------------
" Angie Pangie 24 pts rjscmw People really should educate themselves about JW's. Don't just read the websites that support them. Make sure to read the book Crisis of Conscience by Raymond Franz. My in-laws are JW's and they are some messed up people.
Timaaa Gonzales 20 pts That makes absolutely no sense. If you want to learn the truth about someone you don't go to their enemies. If you wan't to learn about someone or an organization you go to them first. This way you get the facts and not someones twisted view of them. Timaaa Gonzales 20 pts Raymond Franz was nothing more then a disgruntled JW. The fact that his movement is all but dead and gone is proof that he did not have divine backing. The fact that JW's is progressively moving forward as an organization and that millions have chosen to dedicate and live up to their dedication by serving as God's witnesses proves that God's spirit is upon them. John Hoyle 0 pts Timaaa Gonzales: Raymond Franz led no movements against the JWs. He did write two books about his experiences while part of the 1970s era Governing Body, but he never took the lead in the ex-JW movements. It does nothing for the memory of Miss Heichel to try to defend the Watchtower Society by passing on false information about those who have left the religion due to their own reasons of conscience. unknown 13 pts John Hoyle It also does nothing for the memory of Miss Heihel to defend Raymond Franz. John Hoyle 0 pts Angie Pangie: rjscmw Here is a link to a supportive article written about Whitney Heichel on a JW discussion website. There is much more to this story than meets the untrained eye: http://ex-jw.com/tragedy-in-gresham-oregon. We have all felt the loss of Whitney and grieve along with her family. " ------------------------------------------ "unknown" was awarded 13 points for that little jab back at me - and yet never said a thing about Timaaa Gonzales' jab and total lie about Ray? Geez... So yes, I tried to represent our side of the story briefly, but was not about to get into a cat fight over who was lying to the masses. JV -

Actually I did post there. I mentioned how a JW might be desensitized to the death of someone because of allowing their own children to die for lack of medical treatment. Some troll popped up and said that was untrue. I replied with 3 links of JW children who died. Troll bashes the media as being unreliable.
I also got asked what religion I am. Replied I am not a religion, religion is a snare and a racket. Troll backed away from that one.
Then I showered to get the icky feeling off of me and had a glass of wine.

Now this brother has chimed in setting the record straight.
"Who is the man accused of murdering Whitney Heichel?"
http://www.katu.com/news/local/Jonathan-Holt-Whitney-Heichel-murder-175511261.htmlMorden said I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses, and I wanted to clear up a misconception made about us by haters on this message thread. Being "irregular" is not some kind of mark against a person. It just means that someone does not make it to every one of the 4 meeting we have each week, plus our door to door ministry. Most Witnesses are irregular at some time or another. It does not mean that you are somehow considered less spiritual than those ones who attend every meaning, or that you are not in good standing as a Witness. Our meetings usually have a 70% attendance rate. Mr. Holt was a baptized Jehovah's Witness in good standing, was active in the door to door ministry and had privileges in the congregation. It disgusts me to see the haters and opposers here who have slandered him and tried to make him out to be some kind of worldly person when he is not one.
