"Montgomery was given a chance to address the court but chose not to."
I think that if the son was making it all up the mother would have something to say about her innocence.

satan: "you certainly will not die!".
rutherford: "millions now living will never die!
"when satan told his lie, adam and eve both died despite his assurances.
i'm in dire need of assitance, and i have decided to humbly come here.... first, let me reintroduce myself.
my name is kolabomi, a nigerian and a proud one too.
i am a graduate student in one of my country's leading university.
I dunno... seems legit.
"A few of my JW relatives and friends too had thawed and were on civil if not friendly terms."
Wait, no, it's a scam.
apparently it was announced last night.
i was not informed (for 'legal reasons'), but they phoned my dad and told him.
i understand it is due to my apostate book.

Sad to hear Maksutov, but not hugely surprising I should imagine?
Chin up! You're a brave person!
its easy to look around and say if a singular all powerful were real he would stop the suffering of man and animal, a position i support.
however there is another even more basic premise i have pondered at times as well (im sure im not the first of course) : would any loving parent ever hide from their children?
consider it... our all knowing all loving father hides from us even though we cry out to know him.
Not only that, but he abandons them in a house which is full of things which can kill them!
AND if the kids go in daddy's "special" cupboard and find his "special mags" then he'll kill them himself!
i find it hard to believe that adults on this forum make such a big deal about not celebrating birthdays, x-mas, easter, halloween, etc, etc, etc.
i grew up as a jw kid and it actually made me feel good, being different from the other kids in school.
we went to meetings.
Esse quam videri , as you have returned to this thread and aren't just another of those drive-by posters can I ask you if you have read this site: http://www.jwfacts.com/ ?
We can talk about our personal experiences and opinions 'til the cows come home but what really matters is facts.
If the JW's do have "The Truth" and are God's representatives on earth then it doesn't matter what anybody's opinion about birthdays or blood or any other subject are. If, on the other hand the JW religion does not have the truth, are deliberately misleading and even tell outright lies then none of their commands have any validity.
That's the crux of the matter and until you have the facts any other discussion is just gum flapping.

i have very recently come out of a bout of severe depression which lasted for years.
i have ginormous underlying issues which i hardly talk about, especially to my family.. today my sister came in, wanting to force me to do something she wanted.
her strategy was to make me feel bad for feeling bad, just to show me that my problem (which she has no idea of but thinks she does) wasn't the biggest in the world.
Teacup, you could try saying "I don't need a lecture, I need a hug." That's what my wife tells me when I try to be helpful and "fix" her. :)
