World Aids Day
by truthseeker inthe latest news about aids is very disturbing, this truly is a global epidemic.. rather than give drug users needles and sex workers condoms, people who actively encourage the spread of the disease should cease and desist from their destructive behavior.
it is not the fault of children who aquire the disease through the mother.
unfortuantely, children with aids are being abandoned, neglected and dumped in the street.. people who work in the sex industry are responsible for their own demise, and that of others if they do not stop their trade.

I agree. You have to really be careful. I'm also involved in breast cancer awareness. But due to the sheer scope of the problem, AIDS is really a horrible global epidemic.I hope they keep dumping money into treatment and finding a cure because of the millions of children who'll continue to die from AIDS, and the countless innocent spouses whose unfaithful spouses infected them, and for those infected by a tainted blood supply.
Even here in the US where treatment is available, I'm sure everyone knows someone who's died from AIDS. Some who weren't promiscuous or a drug addict. Some who made one bad mistake. And some who were bound to catch something sooner or later.
If everyone on this board who's ever stupidly had unprotected sex or experimented with drugs "got what they deserve" (according to some), there would be very few of us left.

I think it's everybody's problem because just about everybody will lose friends, acquaintences, family members to this disease. A bad decision shouldn't have to be a death sentence.

Do you care if DefD stays a JW or not?
by AlmostAtheist indefd/derrick is a current-jw posting on this board.
he's been on for quite some time now, maybe not a year, but awhile.
many have tried to show him the many ways the watchtower doesn't live up to its claim of being god's organization, but he seems unflappable.. so where do you stand on him now?

Defd has had plenty of threads specifically about him. I rather think he enjoys them as long as they're sincere.

We make a paper chain of different colored links, each saying "___ days until Christmas". And we let the kids take off one link each day. We also make chains when Daddy's out of town.

Further update on my son and i having coffee...
by orbison11 inwell, first thanks all for the posts before i left,.
it went great,,,,i did not recognize him,,,,i couldnt believe it,,what a fine young man he became,,,,we had 2 hours of wonderful talking together (bad grammer but i am still in a fog:).
when it was over we stood outside coffee shot for a few min and i am sure i saw a few tears, then he hugged me, for quite a few seconds...and basically he said he would leave in my hands to contact him,,,,here i was worried he wouldnt want to see me for another 9 years.
