Rev can you just speak your mind please. This is a pretty outspoken board and freedom of speach is allowed... why have reservations? We should never fear speaking truth.
Ok, I know what you mean, and I should practice what I preach right? Well, this is the thing. I've been doing some thinking, and no matter what I think of the way Bill handles things, he's all the cause has at this time. He's the only one who's getting anything done. So looking at the broader spectrum, I realized that perhaps I've said too much. I don't want to hurt the cause or what people think of it, or Bill, that's just not my place. No matter what drives Bill, he is being driven, and that's what seems to be the important thing. Brummie, if I spoke my full mind here, it wouldn't be good. Simon doesn't have enough space for all that's on my mind at this time, and I'm not sure it would serve anyone purpose.
My main concern at this time is the Abuse Survivors. When Bill told me he was taking the boards down, like I said I was blown away, and ran for everything I could get my hands on to button it down and keep it right where it is. There's obviously a reason why I put it on LambsRoar.com and not silentlambs.org, which I've stated in another thread. I heard all the things everyone says about Bill, and I wanted to make sure it was safe, just in case anything crazy happened. But never in a millions years did I think that was actually going to happen, especially in the first month. I'm not trying to bash the guy or his efforts in any of the statements I've made thus far. Partly for the reason that he's all we have, and partly because he hasn't done an 'evil' thing here, he just hasn't taken the Lambs into consideration with this decision, and I think he needs to start doing that. As people have been pointing out, he supposedly is working for them, so why don't they get a say in these matters? Alot of the things I say are coming from them, some are not posting because they fear what Bill and silentlambs will think, and some are not posting for other similar reasons, but rest assured, they are speaking their minds to me. So some of the things I say and have been saying are directly out of the mouths of the silentlambs supporters. Many are disenchanted over this and other things, some are shocked (all?) and others are through with silentlambs. I'm saddened to see all this happening. I just made a large post in the other thread regarding much of this, so you might want to check there for deeper answers: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=42365&page=3&site=3
I apologize for the lack of detail here, I really have to get going, I have a ton of work to do, but if you have any further questions, feel free to ask.
