Xandria esp. and Shakita, jgnat, Narkissos and others - advice appreciated
by formerout ini have followed mario's tragic story from the beginning.
especially in this last battle he is in i have respected very much all your advice to him, especially xandria, who seems to have people at her availability with a lot of experience in this field.. mario is certainly dealing with it very well.
what i liked mostly about all your advice regarding marina is that you encouraged him to keep control of marina legally but also let her believe she has freedom to do what she wants right now.

The Watchtower's big......(Homer Simpson-like)....... DOH'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
by formerout ini was just reading another thread where i was reminded about how the wtbts decided that it was "ok" to have babies again.
i believe this was after the 1975 fiasco where, prior to this they were, in essence, telling people to drop everything, including having a family.. their great revelation about how it was now "ok to have babies" may have been a rush to judgement.
the fact is that a lot of people left because they were "pissed" at being lied to.

I'm looking for a specific Watchtower quote, please.
by formerout infor any who are unaware, i am going through a custody battle with my ex-wife.
despite the fact that she stopped attending about 8 years ago and hates the jw religion, she has been encouraged by her pioneer mother to use every jw trick in the book.. i was on the www.freeminds.org site last nite, reading the "theocratic warfare" section.
i only got about a third of the way through it and didn't find yet what i was looking for.

The WTBTS's proactive steps at preventing child molestation.
by formerout inbrobennett, you made this comment in another post:.
breeding pedophiles are more common in other religions since they are kept in circulation and not taken out of the religion.
by the way, brobennett, do you have kids?.

Your favorite quote about religion/God?
by formerout ini was going to add this to a comment to a post of mine in rune's topic "why?
" (if anybody was paying attention to it) but i figured i would start my own thread on it.. i have always liked quotes, especially very profound life lessons revealed in a short quip.. one of my favorites is by michel de montaigne: .
"man is surely stark mad.

What is your most ridiculous example of being shunned?
by formerout ini was just having lunch in a wendy's near my house an hour ago.
an elder and his wife entered and got in line to order without seeing me seated in the eating area.
after a minute the wife turned and saw me.

What makes people really excel?
by formerout ini was just watching nightline (i think it was) with diane sawyer.
the stars from ocean's twelve were on there.
i am not a person who normally gives too much praise to celebs or athletes but these guys/gals (brad pitt, catherine zeta-jones, andy garcia, george clooney, matt damon and don cheadle) were pretty brilliant.

"Kids say the darndest things."
by formerout ini have personally been reading a lot more of the "serious" posts lately and thought it would be good for me (and hopefully others) to share a bit of humour.
i will start by telling a funny little story about what my six year-old daughter said this weekend:.
i played touch football this fall on weekends.
