It must be so hard to see you mom like this and then to have to put up with her abuses when you're trying to help. It's enough to rattle anyone's cage. I saw in the newspaper here that the hospital has support groups and that one of them is support for care givers. Have you checked into support groups for yourself? Just an idea.

"But JW's are his chosen people!"
"Oh yeah? Here's a Bible. Prove it!"
"You are my witnesses is the utterance of Jehovah."
"How convenient. Just take up the name and that makes it so."
That is how I would handle it.

At least the feds didn't come in shooting. I'm not exactly clear on what happened at Waco, but I know that the leaders felt forced to kill everyone. Some of them didn't want to die. The feds are screwed up.

I'll be starting a social work degree in the fall. I'll see what I can do about the system, if anything, after I graduate. Maybe I can do something in the pedophile victim area while getting my masters. That can be my graduate project. I will really try. Poor little kids

Would you have gone in SERVICE if you hadnt been required to report time?
by LovesDubs ini remember reading...i think it was ray franz's book (how is ray anyway?
) that the gb said that the sheep "couldnt be trusted" to do anything voluntarily and therefore they couldnt stop the reporting arrangement because nobody would go.. since the statistics clearly clearly clearly indicate that going door to door doesnt work and in fact the number of hours spent bringing just one person into the organization amounts to like 8 hours a day every day for a year...youd think the society would get with the times and eliminate that method.
and...jesus never went door to door anyway.

I have a hard time respecting anyone who lets their pants droop below their waist to show off their underwear. It's just wrong. I want to smack their butts.

I might have gone a few times for socialization but not as much as I did when I had to report it.

Your relationship with Jesus Christ
by real one inwhat kind of a relationship are we suppose to have with jesus christ?

Real One,
Just what was the first question that was asked when you were baptized as a Christian? Didn't you have to admit something? What was that? If you are not a sinner, you don't need JC. I thought people weren't without sin until after the rapture takes them up and they get changed. This is assuming you got baptized in a church, not JW khall.

Sirona,
That's a beautiful thought. I never thought about it like that.

Hard for kids under 6 to name dates, times, and places. You know, that is the second rape victims go through, having to deal with the system over and over and over again and get treated like they are lying because they can't remember everything. No, this can't go on the way it is. Something has to change.

Are elders angels?
by hamilcarr init's amazing to see how all the supernatural beings mentioned in the bible are supposed to have a counterpart in real world, more specifically within the hierarchical wt structure.
a previous wt study pointed out that the governing body corresponds to jehovah in its capacity of sending out representatives.
jesus was said to correspond to the class of missionaries taught by the governing body, just like jesus (or michael) had been instructed by his heavenly father.

Hamillcarr,
So, when I see an elder, am I supposed to see Jesus, too? Hehe
