Is it wholly acceptable that our 'new and vibrant' religion should allow fat people to join its ranks without fear of ridicule and being 'marked' as a person without self-control and abuse of ones own body?
yes?........o.k. count me in!!

this combine with a at long times experience of ignoring facts is why many stays even they see a lot of changes from the borg and sometimes even bad things .

The biggest fear they have is loneliness.My mother has been a witness
for thirty years and has slowly come to realize that her life has been wasted.She excepts that the religion she gave her life to now offers her nothing....except routine.She knows nothing else but this life!If she left she would lose every friend she had.We often sit together and chat about mundane things but we always end up discussing the pro's and con's of leaving the "truth".She looks into my eyes every time and says, "but what would I do?"She's right, what would she do?? -

Maybe if we did "name and shame" then the message would suddenly become very personal indeed.Thanks
