  Blue - He sounded like he felt bad for me, like there was nothing I could do to get out of the situation I am in...

  Cute poem Sacolton!

  He is in a rut Mr. Flipper. I don't know if he realizes it or not. They treat him like complete crap at the hall. They won't appoint him to MS even though he is a really loving person.

  Plus, I find it hard to believe that he can be as close to his daughter as I believe he can. The society puts a wedge between family members regarding the blood issue. I mean, the society says to kill your family members if it came down to it. How can you be very close to somebody knowing that you could one day be put in a situation where you would have to make that decision.

  I must say though, I don't think he would ever let our daughter die because of the blood issue. But, he always has this religion pressuring him into making these decisions that they have him believing is the right, loving thing to do before God...

  Is The MJ Situation Damaging to the WTS

  with so many articles and news stories on-line regarding michael jackson, his involvement with the jws and now his children being taken to the kingdom hall, will this damage the reputation of the watch tower society?

  many of these articles have comments from exjws telling the truth about 'the truth', plus google searches are throwing people onto freeminds..

  I do! Hubby would never have googled anything JWs if it hadn't been for MJ. So, for our family, it has made a big difference.

  here's the site: http://www.accessmylibrary.com/coms2/summary_0286-2020252_itm.

  notice this paragraph:.

  the french tax administration has now launched a serious attack on the freedom of religious association and worship by enforcing a 60% tax on "hand donations" made by more than 200,000 jehovah's witnesses in the last four years.

  Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions regarding "attention seekers"?

  we all love it when people pay attention to us or our opinions.

  but what i am talking about is people who crave and force attention from others.

  not just people who talk a lot, but those that force everyone around them to focus on them and them only.. in one of my classes there is a woman who raises her hand to ask a question, but never really has a question to ask.
