i was given the link to a bit of information regarding on old poster/moderator of this forum.

i was not sure of the validity of the information so have been trying to find out if it is true.. earlier today craig's estranged wife, kate, (bikerchic) confirmed that craig died at his home on aug 10, 2011.. i am sure that many people here remember craig's time here and how he went out of his way to offer support to posters, even calling them, to give whatever help he could as they adjusted to their post-jw lives.. i know many people here will grieve his loss.. --------------.

ps i tried posting this earlier but the computer i was working with would not allow the posts.

Many many years ago I had the privilege of talking to Craig on the phone. He was a fantastic person and so was his wife Kate.

Allegheny Pyramid Desecrated

by RolRod in

sometime within the last 2 weeks, someone took a sledgehammer to the pyramid monument in allegheny.

they stole the topstone, smashed the cross and crown emblem and removed the seal.. personally i'm surprised it lasted this long untouched.

although through the years russell's grave has been vandalized, it was always repaired by the bible students..

Thanks for the info Dr. Who.

The person who took the video should have followed the truck carrying the remains to see where it went.

Not much different than those who are having confederate statues and whatever else is deemed racist these days removed. Rewrite and forget the true history of everything.

Jesus and his disciples had TV but he took the viewing privileges away from them after the transfiguration. Matthew 17:9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell (th)e vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.

1996 University Of Cleveland Convocation Center, Cleveland, Ohio. About 3 months after my wife died in April, 1996, I drove to the convention. It was the first convention I ever had to attend by myself. When I got there, I saw others from my congregation and exchanged pleasantries. After a couple of agonizing hours and just before the lunch break, I decided that I didn't want this anymore. I left and drove the almost 3 hours back home and never went to another convention. It took another 4-5 years for me to do my fade and I have never looked back. Life is wonderful without Watchtower and congregation goons deciding your life for you.

for any who can't (like me) muster the masochism necessary to sit through an 18-or-so hour commentary on a 30 minute talk from a certain famous/infamous commentator, here is a link to a transcript from splane's saturday afternoon "apostate" talk:.

https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/ot7z2e/splanes_apostate_rant_transcription/.

there are many topics worthy of consideration, but this particular section really stood out to me:.

Splane's talk just tells me that they are monitoring this site as well as Reddit and whatever other forums there are.

In the early 1970's my brother-in-law and I knocked on a door and this gorgeous woman opened up and she had on a see through neglegee with nothing else. It was a beautiful sight and we both had a "hard" time trying to keep eye contact while we gave our spiel.
