  the last 3 year's have been like a rollercoaster ,,,the bubble that is life as a true believer has been burst, after nearly 20 years as an elder i declined to accept the position after my wife and i moved from the cong.

  we had been with in seattle to another hall.. the consequences of rejecting a position further strengthened my view that life in the backassward world of jwdom is not an option anymore.

  dec.4th 2001 was our last meeting, i had just had enough, haven't been back and won't go back.. these board's have been a real therapuetic event.the good,the bad and the ugly all post here.

  straight from the horse's mouth.........

  the horse in this case is district overseer aimee .

  commenting on what brooklyn is doing about the wtc tradgedy he said that after the initial lock down, [ done because of security concerns due to lack of police in areas as they were all down town] as if that excuses it, they are now providing assistance in the form of a shuttle for fireman from brooklyn to the downtown area as well as the providing of cutting torches and equiptment which may be needed.. he made it sound as if they were actively doing something but i think it was merely an offer as opposed to an act done.

  i am sure their pr machine will have a glowing report of their activity in the days ahead.. he also said that brooklyn bethel has provided all po's in us with a sermon outline incorporating this tradgedy in order to give "hope to others".
