  just saw this on google news.

  link to letter here.. .

  dear family, i want to tell you that although this has been the worst of my lifes tribulations, that i am still standing.. the obvious reason is that jehovah is the faithful keeper of promises holding to his word that never, would his great love allow his precious children to be tested beyond what we could bear.

  tujw, I was thinking the same thing. How many Jdubs would give up field service time to help find a non jdub. Maybe a few but not too many.

  Hutterites Shunned for education and high school sports

  by puffthedragon in

  i have never heard of this group but i turned on the tv and right now (eastern time) there is a show on national geographic called american colony/hutterites and they are shunning members for allowing their children to have more education than they deem neccessary as well as playing school sports.

  the group also appears to think they are the only ones going to heaven.. anyone know more about this or have experience with them?

  struck a chord with me..

  I knew nothing of Hutterites before this show. As someone said here they do seem to be a more relaxed or open group. The situations do seemd staged but it is "reality tv" after all.

  My fiance and I love the show and cannot wait until next season. :) Claudia and her mother are my favorites. The mother has genuine love for her kids. Too bad the mom (Bertha) is mentally and physically trapped in that world.

  Claudia is going to college! :)

  My Online Conversation With a Jehovah's Witness About Blood

  by cofty in

  the following is from the comments section of the independent article about the 22 year old jw with sickle cell anaemia who died in england last week while refusing blood.

  maria makes aguest sound laconic so i don't blame you if you can't be bothered reading it all but the jw cliches and lies are all too familiar.

  i'm guessing she is at the thursday meeting about now so maybe she will respond again later.. .

  OMG!!! I would be pissed too Sheila. Such cowardly hypocrites!

  My family had an anniversary party several years ago while my father was df'ed and there were non witness family memebers there. I remember my non-jw cousin (has a big mouth and this time I welcomed it) was telling different people at the party just what he thought of the dubs ignoring his uncle. My dad was very hurt by it too and was sitting out on the front porch in defiance, I think. But, sadly, he is now back in the fold defending the org. Thankfully though my family doesn't shun me although sometimes I wish they would. J/k I don't mean to make lite of the situation . . .

  I'm so sorry you are going thru this. Hopefully one day they'll come to their senses.

  LOL @ I Quit's Chichimama comment. Too funny.
