LDH..just about every day of my life...I regret stupid things I say
I just find it ironic that he has the nerve to call women "inferior" The saying "The pot calling the kettle black" comes to mind.
I never heard him say he regretted making that comment.
Peace

I will never perceive Muhammad as a cultural icon,maybe it has something to do with this comment he made.
"Our women should be honoured,but they should understand their inferiority. Man gotta look down on women and women up to men whether they are standing up or laying down. I don't take any sass."
i just feel sick to my stomach.
a close friend of mine (no longer in the borg) just called me bawling her eyes out, because she just found out through her brother (also no longer in the borg) that her nephews have been sexually molested by his ex-wife's half-brother, "bert" for the last 4 years.
if that's not bad enough, his stinking, lousy whore of an ex, knew this was going on, and did absolutely nothing.

i have spoken with a number of you already about my journey this winter, but i thought i'd share the story with all of you before i leave this thursday.
this fall i was asked by one of the professors at my school to go with her on a mission to guatemala.
her proposal sounded very interesting, but i didn't think i would be able to go because of my family's financial situation (my widowed mother has been paying my tuition and my brother's tuition while we both attend private institutions).
You are as beautiful inside as out!!
Not to undermine the work of missionaries around the world, but people should be willing to travel and contribute without proclaiming the "good news" or promising impoverished natives that loving Jesus will somehow improve their lives. It is better, in my opinion, to be open-minded and show them that they matter regardless of their beliefs, and that their indigenous cultures are beautiful just as admirable as Western Culture (if not more so).
Right On!!
Have a great journey!! Can't wait for the pics..Take Care.
not priests!.
i posted earlier today about colored shirts.
that was the way a "man" dressed west of the appalachians.
Golden Girl....love that story!! Dog collars??? How funny!! and laying in the tub..never heard that one.
I love a man that can fill out a pair of Levis...mmmmmm. Far from gay looking!!
In my schools you were'nt cool if you did'nt wear Levis!
Comf...good one!!

not sure where all this rambling i'm going to do will end up, but i'm sure there will be words reminding myself how grateful i am for recovery from religious abuse.
some may remember i orginally came aboard sites such as this doing research for a fence-riding jw sibling.
after years of no contact we were able to begin anew.

2 tim.2:15 says," do your utmost to present yourself approved to god, a workman with nothing to be ashamed of,handling the word of the truth aright.
" when you were at work, school or play did you find yourself ashamed to tell anyone that you were a witness?
what if they found out anyway?
I was never a JW!! You mean this forum is for Ex-JW's??
Ruby of.. the still in denial.. class.
after 16 beautiful days off with my children, sleeping in late, actually making family breakfest and all the other wonderfully "mommy" things to do without rushing - i'm back at work (bluck!!!!
) and the kids are back to school so the rushing begins again.
regardless of how people feel about christmas, i find that 2 week period of time my highlight of the entire year.
