  Advice for Young Mothers

  by lowden in

  1. social
  2. humour

  a six year old girl checks out her book at the library.. the librarian stops before she opens it to stamp it and observes the title which says 'advice for young mothers'.. slightly shocked and very inquisitive, but with a wry smile the librarian asks, 'excuse me dear i hope you don't mind me asking , but why are you interested in this subject, aren't you a little young?'.

  'no not at all' says the girl as she waltzes out with the book, 'you can never be too young to start collecting moths'.

  peace.

  Kids referring to older ones as AUNTIE or UNCLE

  i don't know about other patrs of the world but in the uk, youngsters were expected to refer to older ones as auntie or uncle.

  i publicly told my children not to do this, i thought it was reeeeally creepy.

  my main reason for this is that i think it creates trust in people that are strangers to the family unit and for some kids, it's part of the grooming process for molestation.

  inspired by scully's thread it made me think of what one elder used to use as his opening introduction in the ministry, which was the above statement.

  it's very funny now, but at the time i was like..'whhaaat??

  ' he thought it would put them at ease, make them think we had a sense of humour.

  how have you dealt, or how are you dealing with the anger, frustration and rightful indignation that you may feel towards the wts or even god for the way it so negatively impacted on your life?

  since i joined the forum a short while ago i was confronted by the above scandal, hadn't known about it , haven't been in touch with anything to do with the org for a while.

  so i've read all the posts and questions and i think iget the drift, but what i want to kno now is why did they do it?

  i hear their excuse of the library card, but that's obviously a load of tosh.

  Just read 'Jehovah Unmasked'. Here's what i think of it!

  when i first joined the forum a short while ago the aforesaid book was recommended to me after i ranted about the disgusting, genocidal machinations of jehovah.

  nathaniel merritt, although i don't concur with all he says, is a very brave and bright guy.

  his abhorence of the nightmarish evil perpetrated by this god mirrored the thoughts that i've been having for a few years now.

  Do you still believe in JEHOVAH?

  by lowden in

  2. friends

  further to the thread that minimus stated about 'still believing'....what i want to know is do any of you stil believe in jehovah?

  that is, the named god of the bible that sanctioned the genocide of millions of unbelievers.

  as the israelites came into the 'promised land' god told them to devote to destruction 7 populous nations and not let a breathing thing live, or in other words commit genocide!!!

  'I could easily kill someone' said the P.O.

  inspired by one of the other threas on todays board i was remindedof what the po of my 'then' cong' said just befors i left for good.. can't remember what the subject was but he ended up quite proudly announcing.....'if jehovah asked me to.....i would have no trouble killing someone, i would find it easy'!!

  stunned silence.......this man is now a circuit overseer!

  the phrase 'crazed extremist' comes to mind.. what was the most unbelievable, outrageous thing that was uttered in your earshot.
