JW's and the (in?)ability to write coherently

Billygoat

I've been a member of this board since summer of last year. I'm also a member of several JW groups on Yahoo. I love posting stories on the pedophilia scandal or the UN stuff just to see what everyone else says. What amazes me (on a pretty consistent basis) is a JW's inability to communicate, TYPE correctly, or use correct syntax in their sentences.

Would it be catty of me to post something of the following?

There are these neat little things called "periods". They are used to stop a sentence and look like this [.]. It is where you take a breath before moving to the next point.

There are also capital letters, which are used at the first word of every sentence. It shows the beginning of a sentence and it looks like this: [See Bob run.]

A person's name is not just a noun, but a proper noun, which means you also capitalize the first letter of the word. For instance: [Bob, Jill, or Andi] versus [dog, cat, or apple]

I really don't mean to sound like an educated elitist (I'm not BTW, I have only one year of college under me!), but cripes sake!!! Can't these people at least pretend to have a junior high level education???

Just venting this morning...

Hell, nowadays no one even needs to be able to spell and/or type properly! Just get a frikking word processor, for crying out loud! If you don't want to spend lavish quantities of $$$ on a commercial product, bite bullet and install Linux, which comes with Abiword and the StarOffice suites, both absolutely free! There is no excuse!

you seem to lack basic reading writing skill. you suppose to acquire those things in secondary school afore university or college. do not blame org for your inability to write and strang words together! blame your secondary or primary teachers. i thought you native speaker english

hi Billygoat,

I'm one who hardly ever uses caps when I type. I do use them ALL the time when I write though. ( I capitalize the correct words when writing. I admit that I suck at typing though. secretarial material, I'm not.

I visit an aol chat room called "JWs and Friends. The one thing that urks me when I speak to JWs on the UN or pedophile issue is that rather than ask questions about it, they will immediately say things such as " get a life" or "gwen, you're sick. take ana asprin". my heart goes out to victims who try and talk about what has happened to them and get those kind of heartless and evil responses from a group of people that puff themselves up with pride by constantly telling other people that they are "known to be the most loving people on earth". I have yet to see it. my opinion is that 95% will insult you before showing any love, compassion, or understanding. There are many many victims of sexual abuse out on the net that want to talk about it. It's part of their healing process. They are not allowed to talk to JWs without being insulted, unless the abuse happened when they were in a different religion when the abuse happened. If that's the case, ONLY then will a JW show fake love with the intent to rake them in with " JWs don't do that. we alone are god's clean people, and you will only find safety and security with us".

peace,
somebody
P.S. Sorry for my sucky typing skills.

On the other hand....

it could also be a game played by trolls with multiple personas to try to trick the rest of us into thinking that they are separate individuals.

Just a thought...
