    This was posted in my guestbook and I thought I would share it. Loris was threatened by two elders who were sent by WT, with df for her letter to newsweek if she said anything more publicly about the child abuse issue. I believe this mother of eight has more courage in her little finger than those elders do in their whole body. I think she just threw a stone today.

    The Df'ng is a battle scar. A medal of honor. Wear it proudly. It proves a very vital point. The WTS is lashing out at the innocent in a mad thrashing attempt to regain control. It is a maniac clearly out of control. I wrote a poem today while thinking about Bill fighting the Dragon (i.e. the WTS)****

    The Dragon Slayers

    by Loris J Matheny *

    The Dragon Slayers have come;

    The strong of heart,

    Great battles they have won.

    The Dragon Slayers have come;

    They fight a fine fight,

    Never do they turn and run.

    One by one they come;

    A challenge for the Dragon,

    But they are slain- every one.

    Two by two they come;

    They fight in teams

    Because two are stronger than one.

    Ten by ten they come;

    The Dragon leaves the safety of the cave,

    In the open it fights on.

    Legion by legion they come;

    The Dragon fights, the Dragon tires,

    The dead cover the ground like dung.

    The small child has come;

    The Dragon is weak from years of battle,

    The child throws a single stone.

    The end for the Dragon has come;

    Defeated by the Dragon Slayers,

    Brought down in the end by one.

    Wear them down Bill so that the Lambs can have a chance to fight the Dragon, too.

    Thanks for posting this. Maybe we should start a list of former JWs who were DF / DA for making an issue of the Watchtower child abuse policies. The list is already long. Maybe NBC would like to know of the list, because it would support any follow-up story.

    AWESOME!!!

    The dubs say that they are to rejoice when they are persecuted (Matt. 5:11, 12). The DFd can do the same for the shunning persecution we recieve for doing what is right.

    Brave on, Bill!
