  Weird, the link just disappeared in the time it took me to read responses and then back to original post. Anyone able to relink? thanks in advance

  Fisherman, you are an outright liar to say people are free to leave the borg and suffer no harm. There is no graceful way of leaving and keeping friends, family and sometimes employment. In a normal church if one wants to go down the street to a different church the current congregants may say that is too bad but wish them well on their spiritual journey and greet them with affection on the street, store, etc...

  wedding dresses & veils and wedding parties

  their reject Jesus memorial

  using herbal medicines or alternative health practices - usually came from Paganism (witch doctors, shamanism, etc...)

  freedom of speech and loss of rights

  by enoughisenough in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i was thinking about freedom of speech after watching a clip about the jw suing kevin mcfree.

  they wanted to take away his freedom of speech.

  but in thinking about it, that is the way of the organization, save they want to control thought as well.

  If anything they said was actually Biblical they wouldn't need copyright, I believe any copyright from the writers of the Bible has long since run out. (yes, I know there was no such thing as copyright in those days)

  They just don't like people pointing out the ungodliness of their org and having it splashed all over the place for the world to see the real insidious nature of their cult.

  non US folks and pumpkin pie

  by carla in

  sorry, i didn't know how to classify this- on some cooking boards i am on i came across how some do not understand pumpkin pie at all, particularly down under.

  there was a whole thread about picking up libby's pumpkin pie filling (and the expense) and then came the subject of vegemite which does not sound good to me but can't say as i have never had it.

  with all the sugar and spices what is not to like about it?

With all the sugar and spices what is not to like about it? then add the whipped cream and it is a holiday main dish practically! What do non US folks have to say about this silly topic?

  (ps- you know you can use any of the yellow/orange squashes in place of actual pumpkin)

  You could also write NY and ask them why something like this even occurred. Ask in all earnestness why a jw mother would have to be with another man and group of people instead of taking care of her own child while the head of the house is doing his job and providing for family? Tell them you are trying to explain it to your work but cannot find a sensible reason, can they provide you with one so can keep your job?

  Letters do make it back to the cong, I know because I have written them and a certain person had to write me an apology and I heard her name was mud for awhile.
