I'm scared of getting too wordy and her missing the punch lines that are there. Does that make sense? She knows I'm an "apostate". I explained it all to her when I left.

Its ok. I think I understand. I wish Dad could walk me down the aisle and you could walk down it too. I'll miss you terribly and with or without you there, I'll still be thinking of you two. I am really excited about the wedding. Its like one last step to having my life back together. For the first time in my life, I'll be happy to be who I am. I wish you two could be proud of me more than anything in this world but even if you never are, I'll have a new family and they will love me for who I am. If you don't want to be part of my life I can understand but know that I will never stop praying for you as long as you are alive. Mom, its not as simple as just coming back. If I did come back, I would have to lie that I believed all of their teachings. After actually reading the Bible and learning that what jehovah's witnesses teach is not what the Bible says, I just can't pretend to believe it. I hope you understand that. You always said that I was a smart girl. -------------------------------------------- I will add that one sentence. My mom got mad at me and yelled because I told her that this was something she was doing and not something I was doing. So, I think we have that clear what I think and that she disagrees. We've only seen each other once in the year. She'll argue with me and forget some of my other sentences if I say that I've not left God. I think you can see that from my praying that I haven't left God but I don't want to give her something to argue about and miss my sentence that says, "After actually reading the Bible and learning that what jehovah's witnesses teach is not what the Bible says, I just can't pretend to believe it." I want her to read that one and fall off of her chair.

Mom's E-mail:
____________________________
Sorry, last week was very hard on me it was one year ago Wednesday that I lost you. I hope that you understand. As a mother this is something that I will never get over. About your wedding I feel that if I come it will put a dark cloud over it. See this is something that I dream of ever since you were born is your wedding day. We would go pick out your dress, flowers, invitations. So, this is a day that you need to enjoy and not worry about me being there. How could I be there and not be walked down the isle, not give you a hugg hold you so tight that it hurts. Your dad give you away. It would kill us just to see you so close yet so far away.But we are fine doing good. Your dad was gone 3 days last week on a convention for pest control.
Got to go. Come back to us.PLEASE.

Marriage all works out great if you each do your 75%. I tried it once and failed and this time it seems wonderful and perfect except that its still kinda new. I'll have more to say in 25 years .. LOL
U should have married a real man who didnt need u do do that shit for him .someone who took u to bed and makes ur toes curl eh
Yeah and being good in bed helps too! hehehehe I agree. You should marry a self sufficient man and not one that expects you to wait on him hand and foot. I guess you could say that there are just some things i am not going to do like my mom did.

What message would you like to say to anyone studying with the JW's?
by JH ini'd say, beware, once you'll be baptized they won't treat you the same way.
they will expect a lot from you, and you'll never be free again to say what you think about the religon or even think for yourself.
they will control your life completely.

The counterfeit money illustration
by I quit! indoes anyone remember this illustration being used at the hall as a means to keep the rank and file from look at any information that wasn't from the watchtower?
they would say that people are trained to spot counterfeit money by looking a the real thing.
in other words there was no need to look at anything else as you had the real thing, "the truth" coming from the watchtower.

I couldn't figure out why the only one who listened was a little girl too. If you are going to make something that took that much time, at least make it helpful to the kids or say something you think is important to adults. This was just insane.

Help replying to this unbelievable email. Puke alert.
by heretic inher jehovah's witness parents refused blood transfusions for her.
his jehovah's witness parents refused blood transfusions for him.

I agree with the last post. I think you could prove that taking blood saves lives and they would still not take it. If they die following God's commandments they are a martyr and therefore automatically get a ticket to the paradise.
You have to show them that scripturally its ok like in the above verses. Or you could point to them that blood is a symbol of life and holding the symbol as more sacred than the life is crazy!
