    Sorry, but this is not an answer to your question. I was just reading your profile Billygoat and I must say that I was very impressed to say the least! Your experience with the witnesses and your father made you in effect a better person. I realize that it must have been extremely hard for you at the time, but afterwards you can discern the blessings you received from God. Having come to realize that Jesus has died for our sins once and for all times and that we are saved by grace so our sins are forgiven. To realize all that Billygoat is to have a new life in the power of Jesus Christ, who is now in you and the Holy Spirit moving you to action.

    I was disfellowshipped in 2000 - That was a turnaround time for me as well - It took me a couple of years to realize that through all the turmoil and hardship I went through, that in reality God has blessed me in so many ways! How could I have seen the real truth if I remained in that cult-like organization which is totally controlled by a super-intelligent wicked spirit Satan the Devil. I feel so very sorry for the people who are still trapped in the Watchtower organization - the only way to help them is to be kind to them (even though they shun you) and pray fervently to God to help you, because only God has the power to make the impossible possible. If we try to do and change them by our own power, then we are actually fighting against Satan and we will never be successful. So keep on praying that Jesus will help you get your father back again - He is Almighty and He will help you accomplish your dreams!

    I was baptized just a month ago, having accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and personal Saviour. My life has turned around completely and I thank God for the blessings he has given me and also given me the strength to carry on in the real truth. I am also praying daily for my daughters who are still devout JW's, that they may some day be able to flee that organization and receive God's grace to live in eternity!

    If anyone is wondering here is the original link to this story:

    http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/9/61455/1.ashx

    But, I have finally convinced John that perhaps his California online girlfriend isn't on the up and up. He's trying to find out information on the internet about her, without any luck. I have a feeling that the name she's given him isn't correct. We have all the information necessary to do a search on her, but we don't know where to begin. We have:

    • Name
    • Address
    • Birthdate
    • Birth location
    • Parents name (although this might be tricky since she claims she's adopted)
    • Among other information...

    Can anyone here give me an idea of where we can go? There is a private investigator that John has found that charges $70/hour. Maybe this is the route to take? He doesn't want to waste his time going out to California. He'd rather hire a private eye to handle things for him. Any ideas/suggestions/recommendations are HIGHLY welcomed!!!

    I wondered what happened with this.. so she still hasn't hooked up with him?? sure is sounding fishier all the time!

    My ex used to be a PI. He could locate people easy but it helped to have a social security number..

    Ugh. I was afraid someone would say that. We don't have a social security number.

    What about a reverse phone number look up? if she isn't unlisted you could at least see if she uses her real name? not sure if it would show you an address..

    although I did have a guy once deliver flowers to my door that I never gave my phone number to or address.. he only knew the town I lived in and my name from talking on the net. He called and I about fell over asking how he got my number.. he said from Ameritech's website, my phone company at the time.. (my number was unlisted too) and it gave my address as well..

    Well, she has an unlisted number. I did do a reverse address lookup and didn't get anything...although that's how I found out the name of her apartment complex when I spoke with the apartment manager.

    That would be helpful if we were sure about her last name, which we aren't. Whenever we do a search on her name we get nothing. I have a feeling that all we'll be able to do is hire a PI.

    I wish my ex and I were on better terms.. I'd ask for a favor...

    but we aren't..

    not sure if he is still doing that any more any way.. sorry..

    Maybe someone will yet reply that lives up there..

    I guess the question might be, what are you wanting them to do if they are? Maybe they are shy about replying without knowing?
