So sorry to hear about your grandmother
You should do what your "conscience" tells you to do. It's your grandmother, honor her in "your way".

Re: *PLEASE READ* GOD VS. THE GAVEL: RELIGION & THE RULE OF LAW
by AndersonsInfo inmarci a. hamilton is an internationally recognized constitutional expert specializing in church/state relations.
professor hamilton's new book, god vs. the gavel: religion and the rule of law is one of the brightest lights on the horizon in a difficult time of prosecuting religions that cause harm.
ms. hamilton states -- "while religious conduct provides many benefits to society, it is not always benign.

IM from a dub who is disgusted at my presence on this board
by stillajwexelder ini have read your posts and am suprised, shocked and disgusted at the fact you still are an active witness who goes to the meetings 70% of the time and at the same time go to apostefests and curse and talk bad about the truth.
dont you know that the bible said people like you would quietly slip in the congregation and subvert the faith of some?
are you not afraid of god and jesus?

I was appalled by the person who left you that IM.
I am so sorry someone was so cruel to judge you and not themselves.
I guess they haven't read this scripture from Romans 14:10-12:
"But why do you JUDGE your brother? Or why do you also look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgement seat of God:
For it is written: "As I live, says Jehovah, to me every knee will bend down, and every tongue will make open acknowledgement to God". So, then, each of us will render an account for HIMSELF to God.

How I got out of JWs, they showed me the way!
by out of the box ini have been writing 'my story' in bits and pieces here.
it was pouring out, one of the kids sick, jw husband wasn't going.
i got in the car (this little hatch-back car was a loaner from the garage because our larger car was being repaired) i was stopped at a stop sign and i was on time for the meeting.. i heard something and turned in time to see something coming at me fast.

(((Out of the Box)))
I am so sorry for your accident and your physical pain...but what those JW's said to you is horrible!!! SHAME on them!!!!
Lack of love...they are not showing brotherly love at all.................................
That is why I left..on top of the UN scandal and the pedophile crap (after being raised a JW)...
Please take care of yourself........and your husband should too!!!
hugs,

Last xmas at the last "fest" I atteneded, there was a a certain person that caused a lot of tension for everybody.
I couldn't sleep for 2 nights after that fest.....it caused me a lot of trauma and I know the host had a lot of trauma as a result as well
It will be a long time before I attend another "fest".......I will only go where I "know" people......
Leaving a cult is traumatic in itself, I don't need any more traumas added to my life....
