  Sunday School Teacher Indicted for Murder and Rape - Still Lots of ?????

  by flipper in

  as some of you may have heard about the tragic rape and death of an 8 year old sandra cantu here in california in the town of tracy - there are still a lot of unanswered questions which beg to be answered and indeed the young girl's brutal murder cries out for an answer.. in case you missed it, to sum up briefly this young girl went missing from her mobile home park the end of march and for about 10 days the police and volunteers put on a massive manhunt .

  then finally after 10 days some farmworkers found sandra's body in a suitcase in an irrigation pond only about 2 miles from her home.

  search warrants were put out and neighbors were questioned including a baptist minister , his wife, and his 28 year old grandaughter melissa huckaby whose 5 year old daughter played with sandra all the time.

  I have heard the story and Nancy Grace is coverning some of it. The thing that stands out to me is, a so called religious person is behind the death of this child. I am so sick of these creeps hiding behind a religion.

  hi.. im new to the posting-part of this forum and was wondering if there s any other ex-witnesses from sweden in here?.

  i v been reading a lot of the topics here and i have to admit it have helped me to start seeing the bigger picture.

  it took almost a whole year as a ex-borg before i grew the courage to start reading "apostate" information.

  i'm new to this forum and look forward to getting to know you guys.. just a short summary about me, i was raised a jw, baptized at 15, married at 25, moved a few states away, started fading away about a year and a half ago.

  started doing some searching about some long-standing doubts and completely sure now that this isnt the truth.

  being out is still new and very difficult, but i'm making strides every day.. as i said, i look forward to getting to know you all..

  The Memorial is a fraud

  by truthseeker in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i received my memorial invite this weekend.. the title of this tract is "keep doing this in remembrance of me".

  those who are used to celebrating mass and partaking of the bread and wine could be forgiven for imagining that the same thing would happen if they accepted an invite to the memorial.. the memorial speaker tells the audience all that jesus has done for us.. this is where the fraud comes in.

  he describes two flocks with two different hopes, the great crowd has the earthly hope and those of the little flock have the heavenly hope.. many of those interested ones who accepted the invitation to attend the memorial may already have the heavenly hope, but the memorial talk shuts the "kingdom of heaven" to these ones.. there is also nothing in the scriptures to indicate that jesus only allowed the little flock to partake of the emblems.. and so the audience engages in a kind of pass the parcel game, with the bread and the wine, not knowing who, if anyone is actually going to partake.

  The WT Memorial is a disgrace if you really love Jesus and His sacrifice. There is nothing uplifting or loving about it. I have attended 2 memorials and both were the most boring religious ceremonies I have ever attended. Even though they don't practice Easter, I still think its their Easter and they get to don their Easter outfits. Funny, my daughters pioneer mother in law bought my grand-daughter a new dress to wear to it, very pretty and frilly, like an Easter dress. Such phonies with double standards!

  I am sorry your family is putting so much pressure on you when you don't feel well. Maybe if you get sick you could throw up right there in your seat next to your aunt and wife. I know that sounds ugly, but the demand they are putting on you is an ugly thing for them to do.

  My grandson called me last night to let me know his baseball game had been moved from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. and that he won't be able to play his game because of the memorial. I said, you sound very sad, are you sad you have to miss your game and he said yes in a VERY sad voice. I told him to put mom on the phone. I asked her ( his mom, my daughter) if she would like us to take him to his game while they go to the memorial, her response was: " NO! He has a lot of baseball games, he is NOT missing the memorial for one game ".

  I felt like he wanted me to rescue him so he could go to his ball game. So sad.
