  They didn't know 18 to 20 years ago, that pedophiles were harmful?

  that explains it all.

  they just didn't know, that it would be harmful to a child.

  I don't know if this counts:

  I had a White Shiraz by Maddies Perch last week.

  EWwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

  It tasted like cherry cough syrup.

  It was nasty. Very very very nasty.

  How long before you tell people you were once a Jehovah's Witness?

  by Trevanian in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  most of the people i've met since i left don't know that i spent years of my life as a door knocker.. i have very dear friends who don't know.

  i've even had lovers who didn't know.

  my last partner knew, and found it vaguely amusing.. i guess i find it deeply embarrassing, although over the years it's become easier to mention it.

  It doesn't bother me really if people know right away.

  So if comes up in conversation right away, so be it. If it comes up two years later, that's fine too.

  Sherri Shepard EXJW On "The View"

  by Sunspot in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i am watching this program....and sherri shepard just said she was raised as a jw and how strict their beliefs were.

  she was asked what jws believe---and she answered that they teach that when jesus comes back to destroy the earth, that only jws will be allowed to live on the new earth that will be made.. she also said how she hated going out on saturday mornings to knock on doors, and that it was tough when her father got disassociated (she had to stop and explain what that meant) and that she could no longer talk to him.. a lot of women (who are at home :o) watch this show.....and i am applauding her saying this so all who are watching this will hear these two points and remeber them the next time jws call at their houses!.

  facts that only jws will be saved when jesus comes back---and jws told not to speak to those who leave or are kicked out of the religion.....two great points to be aired like this on national tv!.

  Well on The View's web site there is (as was mentioned) a place to email.

  I still think it couldn't hurt to send mail to The View itself.

  One might always add at the header:
