Tina, you are so right. Healing is a multi-stage process involving multiple emotions. We MUST allow ourselves to experience such things(as painful as it is) in order to move on.

EXPLORER-Hatred, Hurt, and Forgiveness
by BoozeRunner inexplorer spoke about ex-jw's hating jw's and spoke about forgiveness.. i dug up an article from the 12/1/97 watchtower.. in paragraph 15, under the sub-heading, when it seems impossible to forgive, the article stated this:.
what, though, if others sin against us in a way that inflicts the deepest of wounds, and yet there is no acknowledgement of the sin, no repentance, and no apology on the part of the offender?
(proverbs 28:13) the scriptures clearly indicate that jehovah does not forgive unrepentant, hardened sinners.

FINAL PEDOPHIILE POLL RESULTS
by Amazing infinal pedophile poll results .
important note: there is no means at this time to truly ascertain the total number of pedophiles in the usa or in any specific group, such as the jws.
estimates and extrapolations are about the best anyone can do in an attempt to get a handle on the potential scope of the problem.

AMAZING...nice work.
Many of the WTS policies affect people in disturbing ways, but one such as their dealings with pedophiles cuts right thru the heart because the victims are innocent children.
Getting them to change their policy concerning pedophiles is clearly an urgent one.
Keep up the goog work:-)

This situation is one that plagued me years ago. One of my sisters was DF'd in the early 80's. I kept in touch with her, getting all the details of her situation. I flew across the country to visit her, much to my dads dislike. As a result of shunning her, my family missed out on getting to know her daughter-a damn shame. I am my niece's favorite uncle because I never turned my back on them.
After 15 years of barely communicating, my family speaks to her on a regular basis. This has been a result of eye-opening realizations about the WTS, as well as FINALLY hearing my sisters side of the story.
I am happy I stuck by her.

(sidenote here-my niece refused to come to my dads funeral because it conflicted with another important event in her life. She was never made to feel like family, so why ALL-OF-A-SUDDEN should she run here to the east coast? I dont fault her for her decision)

ok... I am NOT going thru 220+ jokes to see if this ones here already, so sorry if its a repeat. :-)
A priest took a sabbatical to a fishing lodge. On the last day of his trip he hooked a monster fish and proceeded to reel it in. The guide, holding a net, yelled, "Look at the size of that Son of a Bitch!"
"Son, I'm a priest. Your language is
uncalled for!" "No, Father, that's what kind of fish it is-a Son of a Bitch fish!" "Really? Well help me land this Son of a Bitch!" Once in the boat, they marveled at the monster. "Father, that is the biggest Son of a Bitch I've ever seen."
"Yes, it is a big Son of a Bitch. What
should I do with it?" "Why, eat it of course. You've never tasted anything as good as that Son of a Bitch!"
Elated, the priest headed home to
the church. While unloading his gear,
and his prize catch, Sister Mary inquired about his trip. "Take a look at this big Son of a Bitch I caught!" Sister Mary gasped and clutched her rosary, "Father!" "It's OK, Sister. That's what kind of fish it is-a Son of a Bitch fish!"
"Oh, well then, what are you going to do with that big Son of a
Bitch?"
"Why, eat it of course. The guide
said nothing compares to the taste of a
Son of a Bitch."
The Sister informed the priest that the
Pope was scheduled to visit in a
few days and that they should fix the Son of a Bitch for dinner. "I'll even clean the Son of a Bitch", she said. As she was cleaning the huge fish, the Friar walked in. "What are you doing Sister?"
"Father wants me to clean this big Son of a Bitch for the Pope's dinner."
"Sister! I'll clean it if you're so upset! Please watch your language!"
"No, no, no. It's called a Son of a Bitch fish. Really." "Oh, well in that case, I'll fix up a great meal and that Son of a Bitch can be the main course! Let me know when you've finished cleaning that
Son of a Bitch."
On the night of the Pope's visit, everything was perfect. The Friar had prepared an excellent meal. There was wine, and the fish was excellent.
"I caught the Son of a Bitch!" proclaimed the proud priest. The Pope's eyes opened wide, but he said nothing. "And I cleaned the Son of a Bitch!" exclaimed the sister. The Pope sat silent in disbelief.
And the friar added, "And I prepared the Son of a Bitch, using a special recipe!"
The Pope looked at each of them. Slowly a big smile crept across his face.
"You fuckers are alright!!"Boozy
