    cute little blue thing. What is that, anyhow?)

    My daughter just saw this avatar, ( 3 yrs old) and informed me that it is a cartoon on Nickelodean I think, called Foster and his imaginary friends. She is also drawn to yours Jeanne, she loves Betty Boop. And my son makes me scroll back everytime he sees Sith's avatar.

    Yes I'd help them in an emergency situation. No I would not help them get a job.Why? Because I wouldn't want to work with one, especially the "preaching all the time" kind and I wouldn't want to inflict that upon anyone else either.

    Yes, I would. For a job, I don't know.

    I would do exactly as Jesus would do; I would help them.

    Absolutely. And with only one condition if they wanted a job. They would have to sign an affidavit that they would treat every other employee with respect and courtesy and engage in conversation with them no matter what their background. That would circumvent the WT shunning policy. I work with 3 dubs. All of them are hateful and disrespectful to me for one reason. I left the JW cult in order to worship my God and Lord, Jesus.

    Damn I typed a reply, and it got sucked into cyber space...

    I think if the person was a kind hearted dub, then perhaps a display of unconditional support and friendship might just be enough to melt their icy jw hearts. Might just plant a seed of doubt at the "apostate" label the WT has appropriated for many of us. Agree though that you shouldn't put yourself out on a limb for any dub. Anything that is going to cause you emotional strain isn't worth it, we've had enough of that already. frog

    If a dub needed your help as in a medical emergency or in getting employment/job contract or in getting your support in a dispute with someone on a non religious issue or in some other way such as in a car break down would you help them?

    It's good to be a "good Samaritan", no? Having said that.... To help a JW gain employment in a position where they may violate another's right to privacy/confidentiality....not so good.http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/91765/1.ashx

    Sure. I'll gladly help a dub.

    I dont divide people into dubs/non-dubs any more.
