Big Tex- do I need two witnesses or do I need a direct revelation from Joho back-up by a few scriptures to fullfill your sick delusions of having the TRUTH about AE?????

Now that I have just pissed off a few poeple I highly respect in your defence (again), I should make it clear to you, that at some point you are going to have to grow a pair and learn how to stand up for yourself! Women are NOT the weaker sex! You dont need a husband or GB to be your HEAD- you have a brain, you can think for yourself!
So come on princess, suck it up then REALLY LET YOUR HAIR DOWN! tell us exactlly what you know you want to say- be yourself, not just what the BG wants you to be, but who God made you to be........

Ok Children, thats enough of that
We are all adults here... I think...
AE is NOT the WTBTS, nor is she the average example of a JW.... She is human... She is a person who has feeling too!
By being all and
it will just show any new 'lurker' JW's who are here that us "so called" Apostates (and I use that word loosely) are just as mean and nasty as the Watch Tower says we are!
Dont get me wronge- I am all 4 TROLL HUNTING but AE is clearly NOT a Troll!
If she wants to let her hair hang down, fine... it's not like she was asking for almost every one to bring out their hack saws and chop it off for her...
i've noticed that when a bible study is conducted, when worldly people have questions a lot of jws say that there question is covered later in the book.
that way, the worldlys get stopped in there tracks all the while feeling like there questions are getting answered while the assimilation takes place.. they either forget there question or the book tells them what the answer is without either giving them biblical proof or twisting scriptures.
i've noticed a lot of paragraphs in books just telling people what the answer is without scriptures or saying something like, "surely it would make sense that...".
Thats probably why the whole "process of assimilation" didn't work on me- I asked lots of questions... then I researched them myself. Thats how I learn- I read, I ask, I cross reference, I seek multiple sources of information, I know that there is two sides to a coin so I study both sides to get the full picture...... critical thinking and an independant personality killed my chances of becomming a convert! Thank Gawd!
Looking back now I see that my study lasted for 18 months because during that time I moved house 3 times, towns twice, had two children under the age of 6, and was busy making and having baby number 3..... by the time all that was said and done, I got motivated enough to "catch up on reading" and actually paid closer attention to what I was learning... I had learned too much! so I left very abrubtly!!!
To her credit- the lady I studied with was good at diverting away from 'touchy' subjects and glossing over the more hard core doctrines and dates like 1914 etc...
The 'what does the bible really teach' book leaves out some the more freaky JW rules and regulations that any worldly person would turn away from... the whole scarf wearing thing if you pray out loud in front of or preach to a baptised male BS/ the materbation will turn you gay business/ how to treat a disfellowshiped person/ flag saluting, voteing, and national anthem singing crap..... this stuff your not supposed to find out untill you've been caught hook line and sinker!!!!
I have heard it said on this board so many times, but I am giong say too now...
"I would rather have questions I can not answer then answers I can not question!"
when i was attending, an elder would never give tacit approval to a jw's participation on a website like this.
back then procedure was a harsh warning followed by disfellowshipping if the behavior were to continue.. when i was being raised a jw, no witness in good standing, let alone a pioneer, would ever consider allowing his/her children to attend a halloween or birthday party.
seems as though the days of "mental regulating of youth" are in the rear view mirror.... how great is that?
Welcome to the board Peacedog... great first post ( I got the sarcasim lol)...
this jdub was out walking his two dogs when attacked by a pit bull, killing one of his dogs and causing injuries to his hand.
he was from texas and now lives in melbourne.
he comes from a very well known us jw family (uncles, grandparents in brooklyn, other uncles c/o & d/o, w/t life story of family...).
Your a sweety Mattieu, I knew you had a heart, and a big one for double checking just to make sure hes OK....
I am up late having a glass or two or maybe even three myself- rice season here at the farm, so they have the scareguns going non stop, at last count it was 15 bangs a minute and I can not find my ear plugs, damn it- but at least enough red for one more glass and great book to pass the time.
Cheers.

Matt.... you are a nice guy, i guess i was just expecting you to show a bit more heart and put a bit more thought to your post that you did- we are all guity of doing this from time to time- sorry if I hit a raw nerve with my posts, but I live near Whitton NSW(google and you'll know why I snapped)

The original artical doesn't even mention the guy's last name- so obviously you know more about him or even know him????
You said in your first post that you too have been attacted by a dog before (so you of all people should know how it feels)... but thats where you leave it... no "oh that poor guy, hope hes Ok", or " OMG that poor kid" comments from you at all.... you just seemed more interested in what religion the guy was/is and who hes related too... like that has anything to do with artical....
Oh wait... I get it... hes originally from America and it was an 'American' Pitty that did it...... I see the irony- Ha HA aaaarh pooot! would it still seem funny if that young girl or that guy was killed by that dog???? didn't think so.....
