  does anyone know who the guy in the devil costume is?

  .

  seems to be backfiring but smiles from some onlookers....makes u wonder how it would look though if there was and orderly protest of 1000's of ex jws outnumbering those in attendance...now that wouldnt play out that well for the wtbts..

  Whether or not we think that 11 year olds should be having sex is irrelevent because they are. I think that in a perfect world children should be children and not mini grown-ups. I would rather see an 11 year old that is having sex be protected from pregnancy and disease than not. That being said, I, too, think it is a sad reality our world has become.

  Update on family reunion and other things

  by dawg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  ok, it's been awhile and i thought i'd tell you guys what happened about the family reunion situation.

  to rehash... i wrote a letter telling all the jw's in my family that i wasn't going to take any crap off them anymore, that i would embarass their dumba#* if they treated me badly in anyway at funerals and reunions and the like.

  i told them i was going to bring information about the idiot jw's to every family event and i was going to get in their faces if they chose to treat me badly cause i refuse to follow the fools at the wtbts.

  Good job! I agree with what you did. By writing that letter and sticking up for yourself as a person of worth, you take away some of the WTS's power over you and your family.

  I feel very sorry for the honest hearted JWs (most, IMHO) that sincerely believe it is the "truth" and are trying their hardest to live up to it. I don't hate them at all. I do hate their cruel, unloving, definitely not Christian policies/beliefs, ie. shunning, moral superiority, intolerance, etc.

  sad little picture

  by Hortensia in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  isn't this the saddest little face?

  this is my 16-year-old cat lily - the new kitten popped her in the eye and she got an infection.

  she won't leave it alone so the vet sewed her eye shut with med inside, and put the cone on her so she can't take the stitches out by herself.

  Poor, Lily. I hope she recovers fast. On the plus side, she could always be 'The Flying Nun' for Halloween.

  Did she fall when she tried to run? That's the other thing that gets me. If someone is chasing me the shoes come off and I haul A$$ without looking back!

  LOL.That always bugs me, too.

  He has the heart of a lion. He looks just as kind and sweet as I pictured him in my mind's eye.
