I am new to this forum but the reason I joined is because Im fed up. The death of one of my wifes friends was the last straw. She was a faithful sister who was loyal to her husband children and friends and they found her dead in her car about a month ago. She committed suicide, from what we gathered she just could not hold on any longer plus she was dealing with some emotional issues. Why does this sort of thing go unchecked? We hear of this kind of tragedy affecting alot of people but it really hits home when its someone you know. We loved her very much first time I met her we had words but soon we became good friends(real genuine friendship) I believe God has a plan for all of us when we pass on, We both want to see her again and I know we will. The WTS really hurts alot more people than they realize, it took the death of a friend to open our eyes to the truth of our families situation and this saddens us very much. The WTS is right about one thing this is the time of the end but they are not free from judgement as they may think the veil of lies and deciet is slowly being lifted and I sincerely believe that what is happening now is Gods will. Gods judgement is reserved for ALL who prey upon others not just those who are a part of "Christendom". She often told us about her feelings of inadequacy, wished she could do more in "service" to God and she felt he was disappointed in her. Her husband that she left behind is a good man he loved her very much.

Spring Equinox, Full Moon, Reject symbols of Christ Jesus, and....this year was not celebrated on the REAL date of Nisan 14 which is really in April according to the Jewish calendar. The celebration is governed by the Roman calendar which is set up according to Pagan tradition.

One more thing(Im sorry I have alot to say) Philanthropy may not be perfect but that is not the issue God knows we are imperfect but if we GIVE in spite of this flaw. Just like a loving father he will take that into consideration and he will be proud of our SINCERE effort.

I have not sent a red cent to the society in about 9 years and my life has been so much more stress free since. To equate my devotion to God by how much money I offer was a mistake on my part God does not nor has he ever needed any money from me. But this attitude toward charity or fellow feeling does not just pertain to any monitary contributions one might give while a member of the JW religion. Let me give you an example.... About 5 years ago my wife and I just had our little baby girl we were at a Sunday morning meeting when all of a sudden a young boy who was sitting with his mom and 2 other siblings(you know the one the with the single mom with financial and emotional problems?) he threw up in his lap very sick we noticed right away and what only amounted to 10 seconds(an eternity if you ask me) everyone in the row along with attendants just looked at the family with looks that said "you are disturbing the meeting". Totally disgusted my wife and I went over to help them baby in hand my wife assisted me in helping the boy only one other brother who was coming out of the bathroom helped us no one else made a move. She thanked us after the meeting and from that day forward it began to feel as if the elders had some issue with me did I step on their toes? Was I out of line? Y,now I really dont care.
