  Holiday thoughts

  there was always a bible (watchtower)-based reason not to celebrate.

  heads were cut off.

  fertility rites were involved.

  Nilfun,

  I've been away for approx. 6 years and feel the same as you do. It's hard to shake what we learned.The scriptures go thru my mind constantly, like an endless tape. "Jehovah is a Jealous God,"......"The broad path that leads to destruction."....."what sharing does the light have with darkness"........and on and on and on.

  But I never had too much trouble with Thanksgiving, always enjoyed it. Now you've got me thinking about its real origins.....ripping off the native Americans. More guilt.

  Dear garybuss,

  That is one of the most heart-wrenching stories I've ever read. What is wrong with these people!

  Have to get their service hours in--what a crock of shit. What a horrible time it must have been for you.

  PS I'm not a very eloquent writer or very good at exprssing my emotions, but my heart goes out to you. I'm sure someone will be able to comment on the WT insensitivity.

  Gnam said Hughes, instead of blaming the Jehovah's Witnesses, should take some responsibility as a father who introduced his daughter to the faith and taught her many of the church's beliefs.
  "He was the one teaching his daughter ...."

  This just blows me away.

  we had a total of 5 people show up, including myself, bruce baker presented the lamb, and left a press packet on the door, with copys of the new york times articles.

  i got some pictures and video, and we had a reporter for the seattle times, and komo tv 4 show up, they both talked with us for almost an hour.

  it was great to have a couple of people share they're personal experiences about being molested with the reporters.

  Grits,

  Btw, who is Bruce Baker and what is his story? Is it on this forum somewhere?

  Try this, Zev responded concerning the Society making money on conventions.....

  www.watchtowernews.org/tacomapark.htm It mentions Bruce Baker, one and the same?

  i found out the other day that i have endometrial cancer.

  needless to say, i'm shocked, angry and desperate.

  i blame this on my incompetent doctor who did absolutely nothing when i first went to him two years ago and said "there's something wrong here.
