i was born into a violent abusive JW family
by ania inthe abuser was my father, we were all (7 children) abused severely (including our mother) as a child i did not understand what exactly was going on but after many years of councelling and so-forth (my counceller tells me, my case is the most severe she has had in her 12 years as a counceller) i discovered that my father was (is) a sado-masichist.
he got sexual enjoyment from beating us all.
i already knew this to an extent i just never realised there was actually a name for what he got out of it.. after 20 odd years of this abuse, my mother had tried to go through the right channels (the elders, in several congregations we moved to etc) in order to get permission to take her children and live separate to her husband who was a constant threat to our very lives (he was a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic & incrediably unpredictable) she was however told time and again that if she left her husband she and her unbaptised children (under 18) would most certainly lose out on everlasting life.

Ooooh - which Church? (am assuming Cornwall, England) - will you be on 'Songs Of Praise'? (is that still on?) - anyone remember 'The Vicar Of Dibley' episode?

The 'tote' bag would be ideal for 'sisters' to carry the Watchtowers in during service.

Class-Questions for JW's
by Emma ina woman i work with is going to a class at her church on how to talk to jw's.
i told her one question to ask when they come knocking is if jesus is their mediator since most dubs don't know he isn't according to their own teachings.. any other simple questions one might ask?.

"beyond what is written".
Even more petty - beards! I bet there's loads of examples of this. I imagine that JW don't interpret this Scripture in this way though.
Can someone point me to the FDS usurping Jesus as mediator?

My son showed this very scripture Deuteronomy 22: 25-28 to a couple of Elders and about 2 weeks later he was DF for apostasy
He only has his himself to blame - using the BIBLE instead of the Watchtower, tsk, tsk.

MOSHE = When my daughter was 13 a black boy was intersted in her. He came by after school often. I finally asked him one day "James , do you believe that Black is beautiful?" He replied "Yes"- I then told him, " Then, why don't you go find yourself a Black girlfriend?" He had the strangest look on his face and he stopped calling and coming by anymore..
Blimey, now THAT'S a LEADING QUESTION. How else would the lad answer? I bet he'd have answered 'yes' if you'd have asked him, ''Do you believe WHITE is beautiful'' - but then YOU'D have been stuck for a response.
As a 13 year old lad, I imagine he just liked your daughter regardless of her colour.

2007 IKEA catalogue controversy
by Scully inhttp://www.ctv.ca/servlet/articlenews/story/ctvnews/20060825/ikea_photo_060825/20060825?hub=world.
this sounds strangely similar to janet jackson's "wardrobe failure" publicity stunt.
is it a dog's leg?

Sorry Monkeyshine - I was trying to distinguish. I know what you mean. There is no excuse for today's racism. I remembeer years ago my grandmother didn't 'understand' black people - and didn't see one till she was in her 70s. Living in a very English community (there were NO black/ethnic pupils at the school I attended), the only experience of anyone of a different race was through stories and stereotypes.
I imagine that gill's 'in-law' is ignorant, never having met a white person and so is only relying on stereotypes.
