The quote is obviously not accurate. They quote him as saying "God came to earth...."

Prince (the JW/singer) endorses Republicans and bashes gay marriage
by Gopher ini thought jw's were supposed to be politically neutral.
prince lives and proselytizes in l.a., and he came out in favor of the republican party and strongly for proposition 8 (the anti-gay marriage amendment that won the popular vote in california two weeks ago).. this guy is confused.
a political jw???.

The parallels are indeed strikingly similar. In fact, I didn't get very far in to it before I blew the storyline for the folks I was watching it with

started to realize how the Organization really worked. I realized that historically, it was always wrong! I saw that as a group, we were NOT encouraged to be loving......Eventually I knew I had to get out and fade.........And I did!
Bravo!

You are worthy of being LOVED unconditionaly, and if you will believe and open up to it, love will find you. The darkenss will pass. It did for me, it will for you. Love~Kate
Thanks Kate, this is exactly the place I was at. I've struggled for sometime with the feeling of not being good enough to be loved. To have that confirmed by my mother is what sent me over the edge. Well that, and my 2.1 blood alcohol level. ;)

I tried to kill myself over the weekend. Slit my wrists to watch the bath tub fill with blood. This was after a phone call with my mother telling me can't love me because I don't love Jehovah. I'm okay. I survived thankfully. I had teh presence of mind to call someone, and that person had teh presence of mind to take me seriously. The police and paramedics got to me in time. I certainly don't recommend this for anyone. It REALLY sucks. It doesnt punish anyone but yourself. I learned a valuable lesson: sometimes things just have to stay broken. I'm okay REALLY. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this info. DON'T do it. There is absolutely NOTHING to be accomplished by it. (yes I'm teh one who posted about it on another board)

Thee absolute Vicious, Hateful, Malicious comment......
by whyamihere inyesterday, i was having a horrible day....(some of you may know).

Brooke, you are a wonderful mother, you KNOW that. Even more so because your kids wont grow up with the guilt and warped view of life that the JW's teach. Bringing ones kids up and making judgements on teh parenting you do is the below the belt card they use with so many people. I was told I didn't love my child because I wouldn't teach him about Jehovah, and I wanted him to die at Armageddon. It sucks bad, it's mean and malicious. Forgive them, they know not what they do. All that matters is that you can look yourself and your children in teh face and know better. And know that when they become adults they will thank you for saving them from that perverse life.
*muah*

No, It's not BIG news
by ApagaLaLuz ini'm sorry, i do not see this as being big news.
the ties to the un, yes that was huge for me.
the child abuse, yes, even bigger.

Swalker, I absolutely agree with you. INTENT, especially intent to deceive.Or motive rather. Last thing I could be called is a JW appologist. BUT, besides a non-JW parent who was affected, I don't see this making much of an impact as implied before. If someone could provide me the proof that the JWs deceived their believers based on the misrepresentation of SECULAR info, I would kindly shut up. The verbage from a "blood card" is a great place to start. My appologies I no longer have mine, I burned it years ago. Please let me say I mean no disrespect to Barbara at all. I think she and her associates are GREAT people, pioneers in the true sense of the word. I just don't see this as a "toppling" announcement.

I've explained it to you no less than 4 times on Slip's. You said you might be too drunk tonight to understand. You must be. Go to bed, try it again in the morning. This is getting tiresome Odrade, don't patronize me. BTW, it was only twice.
