TotallyADD --- agree w/you --- Toxic Parents is an incredible reality book and I was going to recommend same. Another great read is Drama of the Gifted Child --- Alice Miller, an unbelievable psychiatrist, opens the eyes. Learning to deal w/our family of origin is quite an education and the cOda.org is a free meeting people can attend to learn to deal w/family, life. I highly recommend this group to learn life skills and meet individuals learning to be safe, healthy, individuals.

The Danger of Credulous Research of Jehovah's Witnesses on the Internet
by Spade inhttp://www.watchtower21.org/2011/02/danger-of-naive-and-credulous-research.html.
it's been my experience so far, that anything a person wants to find out about jehovahs witnesses, they can find out from jehovahs witnesses.
any and all information ever published by jehovah witnesses is accessible to all.

Is Deporting Illegal Immigrants The Answer To American's Economic Woe? What Do You Think?
by Scott77 in"... deporting the millions of illegal aliens in the united states will cost trillions and will make this country bankrupt; the beginning of slippery slope that eventually will destroy our country the working immigrants is part of the backbone of our country and they have always been and will always be.. i guess, you are blind to the myriad of studies concluding that immigrants benefits our culture and economy.
a study was released by the center for american progress (cap) that establishes that the enforcement-only approach these restrictionist groups ad-nauseam advocate isnt sustainable in the long-term.
the study estimates that a strategy aimed at deporting the nations population of illegal immigrants would cost the government approximately $285 billion over five years.

many are here to commit crimes and abuse the legal citizens (hiring many, i could write a book). i know they need money to support their families and some are very industrious. a lot of them are doing jobs that americans WILL NOT DO, and we've created a society of entitlement.

it's a good-ole boys pecking club --- however, i think there are several honest-hearted, God fearing MEN, brainwashed, who reach out to serve/climbing the ladder and working into the hierarchy believing they're serving their creator.

Learning the "Truth" Is not true is like...................
by foolsparadise inafter 33 years of being mind controlled at 5 meetings a week, field service meetings, special day assembly, curcuit assembly,district assembly, finding out "the truth" is just a big hoax is like getting punched in the stomach-uppercut in the jaw-being kicked in the balls from behind and then having the rug ripped out from under you and smashing your head on the ground.
what was it like for everyone else?.

YES, DEFINITELY! was so distressed the few yrs. attending trying to be molded and when i did pray it was to endure my misery, bad mental health which was injurious to my physical health. beyond miserable trying to ENDURE and left before the internet to have peace of mind knowing God would have to read hearts, and i he didn't so be it --- did not want to be part of paradise earth w/those people. worse yrs. of my life except growing up w/narcissistic/evil bio-mother. realized i'd had a much closer relationship w/God before i became brainwashed w/this chosen religion. talk about being STUPID!
