Simon and others,
This is KJV, using my uncle's moniker to at least make a statement. First off, I apologize to everyone I offended with the post "Do you swallow?". It was wrong, and I did it in anger. I was trying to make a point, but it failed. You were right for removing me from your board, after all, what should have I expected? I posted on Kent's board my anger and frustration, hoping in my heart that maybe this would surface over here, and it did. The one thing that I have in my corner is that "I am who I am", if you don't believe me, ask Alan F., Farkel, Maximus, JanH., and Amazing. Slipnslidemaster asked a very good question:"Who is this trash KJV?". My answer is this: I am a human being with feelings, who is imperfect who makes terrible mistakes. I have to live with this fact,...this being imperfect. No, I want to cut through the shit...I am nuts!!!! But is that an excuse?? No, it isn't. I would like to share something with you all. I don't care what you think of me(well, I kinda of do care), but we do share one thing in common,...we are all ex-dubs. I look up to ex-dubs...why? Because I know it took courage for all of you to turn on something that you believed and loved so much. We all are in pain. We are. Even Alan F. who makes more money than God himself, must be in a little pain for being lied to. Simon, You must be having the time of your life right now by having the most exciting ex-JW board that has ever been on the net. I should have taken time to really have gotten to know the people on here before I got removed, but I didn't, and because I really didn't know what the hell this board was about, I overreacted. I am sorry. By the way, COMF, when I posted "Do you swallow?", I was sober, so I don't have any excuse, do I?"
As far as my uncle, his head is so jacked up right now I actually worry for him. Too much too soon!! So, even though he is mad at me right now, he may change his tune, he is a very good man.
What have I ever contributed? I will tell you, and ros will back me. I was the one on H20 that pointed out for the very first time ever, that the reason that the Society endorsed the 'bribe" in Mexico is because the Society had regestarded as a "Cultural Organization" in 1946, and if the brothers in Mexico had refused the draft on religous grounds in Mexico, the Mexican goverment would have come back and said:"Hey, wait!..you are a cultural organization, what does this have to do with religion?" If the brothers had refused the draft, it would have ruined their "Cultural Organization" status.
But that is neither here nor there. I wanted to say that I am sorry, and I hope you all can forgive me, I am really a nobody, and I do want to thank those of you who have made an impact in my life. I will never forget you!!

jehovah is nothing more than the very primitive concept of who and what god is that was held by a primitive, savage, illiterate group of nomads inhabiting the middle eastern lavant five thousand years ago.. jehovah is on a par with other middle eastern gods of the time; no more no less.
and we now discover through archaeology that jehovah had a wife.
Sirona,
I don't mind discussing Bible issues, but I'd rather not participate on a thread that's sole purpose is to degrade and insult me. Of the questions that you asked, the Society has provided answers for, you know that. If your not happy with their answers, fine, move on. You did make on error though. You said that 1Peter 3:14,15 is a quotation from Isaiah 8:12,13, and this is incorrect. Only 1Peter 3:14 is a quote of Isaiah 8:12.
my door!
can you imagine that?
don't they know i'm a filthy apostulater!
Why COMF? Are you having a hard time understanding them? Don't tell me you're a jerk too! I thought you were a nice guy!

It is nice to see some reasonable responses to a post written by a jerk.

Sirona,
I am not going to be talked down to. Is that too difficult to understand? Do you liked being talked down to? I wonder if some of the posters here have taken a course in 'rudeness'.

Francois,
Who are you to tell me what to do? Is this the way you talk to people in person? You're a jerk!! At this point, I could care less if you said Jehovah had 10 wives, I am not going to be abused. As far as hair on my ass, it is apparent that you got a hair up yours.
most of the criticism of the usa seems to come from our european brothers and sisters.
i call them such because they primarily settled our continient and are our ancestors.
i have noticed some trends in this and find some fair things on their part for americans to consider.
Hi Amazing,
You made some interesting observations and I wanted to add my two cents. Americans have no identity culturally or racially. There are too many different cultures and races living in this country, who are forced to tolerate each other, and our goverment is allowing more people in every day from other countries whose names we can't even pronounce. Japan has Japanese, China has Chinese, Germany has Germans, Italy has Italians, but who are we? We are culturally, racially mixed nation who is setting itself up for a civil war. We have not even resolved the differences between whites, blacks, hispanics, native Americans, and asians in this country and we are letting in people from Zytrstyprv and Kaswtyzjty. Along with this, we are over fed(there is a fast food on every corner) over entertained, and gluttonous in everyway imaginable, and God forbid if we have to wait too long in a gas line or wait too long in line at a grocery store. We have no patient, and we have a superior attitude. We are kind of like the Lakers and the Yankees. They are money teams that can buy any players they want, unlike the poorer teams who have to groom and train inferior players and build team pride and a tight unity. Look at how Shaq and Koby fight publically while they are making millions yearly. It's being over indulgent, and other countries can see this, even though we can't. Another point I would like to make is that I agree with the Society's teaching that America is the world power in the book of Daniel that is described as the feet and toes of the gold-headed image which is the 'iron mixed with clay'. That describes us to a tee!
do all of you ex-jehovah's witnesses get upset when you are called an apostate?
you all call each other apostates, so why should you all get upset if i call you apostates?
if you don't like being called 'apostate', what title would you prefer?
LB,
No problem! Apology accepted! And I apologize if I offended you...and others! I have a lot to learn, as I am finding out.

larc,
Thank you for sharing. I am going to spend some time researching this. I have to admit that it is embarrasing that I know so little of some of the Society's activities. If what you tell me is true I am going to question the Society and see what they say.
