Maybe she learned something the hard way (not that she may ever apologize to you) that turning you in to the elders didn't help you or change you, and eventually she paid a price, a broken marriage. If she does the same thing about your son, then she will lose another relationship and no doubt, your son will move on as he deserves to have a life.

My son and I had a talk after back from JW dad's
by milligal inwell some of you know that i gave my son over (custody) to his jw dad after a vicious 7 year long custody battle.
it broke my heart but i ran out of ways to keep fighting and it was tearing our family apart.
anyway for the last 1& 1/2 years he's lived with his dad and spent all holidays and summer break w/me.

You can offer unconditional love and his father & JWs never will have that for him.

How is the Internet changing us?
by Narkissos inopen question: i really don't have any ready answer for that one.... my basic assumption is that mankind has always been different.
every period and situation of history can be construed as a "system" involving specific political, economical, social and technical conditions and a corresponding set of ideas, or beliefs, allowing for a certain type of self-, community- and world-understanding.
just to follow one particular line among many: .

Other than time, the Internet is the JWs worst enemy.

That they feel comfort is well and good. However, JWs belief system teaches that their loved ones are coming back "SOON" in the resurrection because the end is coming so soon. As their delayed 'soon' goes on and on, decade after decade, JWs often have a delayed mourning process of dealing with reality. I was told the same thing about my mom dying of cancer, almost 40 years ago.

WTS Will Stop Charging Interest on Loans
by doinmypart inthe org will stop charging interest on kh building fund loans effective sep 1, 2008. current loan payment amounts will remain the same so the loans can be paid off sooner.. congregations should continue to donate to the kh building fund, and publishers can donate directly to the fund by sending donations directly to the branch.
congregations are encouraged to forward surplus congregation and operating funds to the branch until the time those funds are needed by the congregation (this was actually read to the congregation...talk about full disclosure).. this is for all branches and congregations, not just the u.s..

I suspect new Kingdom Hall builds will slow down quite a bit now. Then the WTS will blame the rank and file that it is their fault for not donating enough.

After all this time of getting away with it, now it just stops. ??? Seems like some legalese is involved. How can a 'charitable' organization charge interest on services to helping people. Seems clearly like such a contradiction, doesn't it?

Sister dies (?) at DC
by DoomVoyager inno, this is not a joke.
having actually managed to survive through the entire 3 grueling days of the dc after attending the friday session today (hit sat and sun last weekend) i was initially going to make a criticism of some of the parts & points at the dc.
however, something that i witnessed today changed my mind.

Shows how mind control can work to be so uneffected by a profound reality and so unfazed by it. Then at the JW funerals, not much word about the deceased other than 'this is how so-so believed' and then still just going with another talk. Absurd!

Lawrence Hughes case
by isaacaustin inisn't there supposed to be a decsion frday regarding his motion to procede with his lawsuit against the wt?

There was another Canadian case recently that JWs lost on the blood issue. I hope that helps Lawrence's case. It really is a case of little David against Goliath. But I do hope. I think that if the JWs lost that case also that there could be a 'new light' by the GB on the horizon.
