You're way off base with this, Joel. Time to get a grip.
As always, I wish all here peace.
Are you metamorphosing into AGuest?
in the case of silent lambs versus the christian congregation of jehovah's witnesses.. did you ever think that discussing these cases here accompanied by your vitriole against all things watchtower could be used to:.
1. show that ex jehovahs witnesses harbor such a hatred for the watchtower society that they will say anything to discredit them.. 2. show that there is a network of ex jehovahs witnesses that may have helped to create these abuse accusations in the alledged victims' minds or at least have encouraged them, even unwittingly, to exaggerate their claims.. i guarantee you that the watchtower society has documented every word anyone here has said, especially on this issue.
i can easily see a defense team using it to, if not exonerate accused molesters and the watchtower society, to at least create a reasonable doubt regarding their guilt.. if your hatred of the watchtower causes you to join in irrational behavior and accusations, you have to contemplate the fact that you may be adding to the future grief of any real victims.. i present this for your thoughtful consideration.. as always, i wish all here peace.. joel

Women:
His new girlfriend is thinner and better-looking than I am. I'm so happy for them both.
He earned more than I do, so I broke up with him.
I'm sick of dating doctors and lawyers! Give me a good old-fashioned truck driver any day.
We're redecorating the bedroom, and he keeps bugging me to help him with the color choices.
He talks our relationship to death. It's making me crazy!
Why can't I find a guy who'll have a wild carefree night of sex and then just go his separate way for once?
I just realized -- my butt doesn't look fat in this -- my butt IS fat!
Let's skip that sale, I really don't need anything anyway.
What do you mean, today's our anniversary?
Can we not talk to each other tonight? I'd rather just watch TV.
Ohhhhhh, this diamond is wayyyyyyyyy tooooooo big!
Aww, don't stop for directions, I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to get there.
I don't care if it's on sale, $300 is way too much for a designer dress.
Whoa, get a whiff of that one!

if it is possible can you post why you were disfellowshipped?
I have never been disfellowshipped.
life is still good.
every so often we will get a person asking the question should he da himself or not.
as many of you know i am a very strong believer in the power of the net in seeking advice on such an issue.
JT, I wish I'd had you around to give your advice back when I was writing my DA letter. You rock, man!

just to let those of you who were concerned about nute that she's doing fine.
she and i talked on the phone today and all is well.
she was emotional and did not want her story posted here.
Who's Nute?

i am a believer in christ have been df'd since 7/01, but left the jw's in my heart for some time before that.. i feel that the gifts of the spirit didn't end in the 1st and 2nd century but should continue until the church is no longer on earth.. i have been to serveral different christian groups and have heard many speak in tongues, but to be honest i'm not very impressed.. it seems to be, not supernatural,.. but more like the reaction you get when you jump in very cold water, and get a terrible chill that makes your jaw vibrate.. the women seems to be the most prominent ones in speaking in tongues, so i wonder if it is just an emotional response, more than any thing else?.
and if paul said to limit the speaking in tongues to just 2 and only if there is an interpeter, why does the speaking in tongues become so prominent at these meetings?
and how come i never hear a translator interpet what is said?.
Duncan, you should hear a latino do it. They think "feelia" is pronounced FEEL-ya instead of Feh-LI-a, and they get all tangue-tungled on coroborundo, which is pronounced co-ROB-o-RUND-o contrary to their COR-o-bor-UN-do.
