Well damn, everyone is in my corner of this world.
You can learn alot about life from a country music song.
Posters are puttin up the popular musicians...but if you want to really go for a good time, rockin' country band . . . try "The Tractors". Listen to the song "I wouldn't tell you no lie." http://www.thetractors.com/albums/allamerican2_mp3.php

ALERT: All Child Abuse Lawsuits have been settled. Millions cashed out???
by What-A-Coincidence inre: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/8/116108/1.ashx.
a bethel insider in the know told me that all of the child abuse lawsuits where the watchtower bible and tract society was one of the defendants were settled back in the beginning of this year.
i questioned it and called napa myself and they were absolutely settled back then.

To settle out of court - does not mean defeat. I wonder if there is a gag order on the amount and individual cases. This could be why Love & Norris are not talking.
Attorneys are required to communicate every settlement offer to their clients and the client always has the final say as to whether to settle the case. The attorney will input his//her experience as to whether or not to settle, but it is ultimately the client's decision. Unscrupulous attorneys will give advice to settle for "easy money" rather than take the case to court where millions could be won. In the end, the client is looking at the money, the trauma of going through court, and the possibility of losing. It's very much like "Deal or No Deal", but in this case conjuring up one's past sexual abuse.

Welcome Mr. Blue,
Your story reminds me of a popular country song....."Brand New Girlfriend"
Seriously, sounds like you're getting better. Sorry about the immediate family. It takes time. The best thing is to have a good life.

About 6 years ago, my relatives were on a campaign to make me a more faithful Jdub. They glowingly said, "The Society changed, they now allow advanced education." I was supposed to take new change as gospel, while I high tailed it back to the KH to be more regular. Now, my relatives don't say anything....especially about higher education. This article proves why. The Society is back to its "no advanced education" mantra.
God made each of us unique, with our own special talent. Some are gifted with auto body work (see "Pimp My Ride" and, my favorite, "Trick My Truck"). This trade needs technical school or apprenticship. Others, include EMTs, bookkeepers, plumbers. These trades takes hard work and dedication.
Others are going to want to be doctors, nurses, attorneys, architects, enginners, grade school teachers, urban planners, insurance brokers, real estate brokers, etc. etc. etc. Yes, these trades require hard work and dedication....just like the above jobs. Where would we be, and the Watchtower be, without these people?.
The Watchtower Society thwarts the talent of its followers, for the Watchtower Society's bidding. To waste a God given talent is blasphemy to His face!

Hate to say it, but I think X-Jws are more guilty in this regard.
XJWs are an angry lot with alot to say! But, are we ruder, more disrespectful of JWs? Ask an ex-JW who was shunned, not invited to funerals, weddings, births, etc. Yes, XJWs are an angry lot with alot to say. And, that can make them a ruder and a tad disrepectful of JW propaganda.
