  ok so my youngest daughter (17) has been enveloped by her 'spiritual' older siblings and at the same time convinced that her mum is an evil disfellowshipped harlot.... its gutted me for the past 8 months ...i miss her dreadfully and worry so much about her...i thought she knew me better and that we had an unbreakable bond ....the things she's said to me in emails and texts have torn me apart and i cant keep going back for more...much as i love her i cant continue to be a punch bag...it would kill me to go through anymore abuse..... currently she's getting involved via facebook with some of my new hubby's family (not jws) ...i think there's trouble ahead..... loz x.

  Do JW's cherry-pick what to find offensive? Is it hypocricy?

  by Terry in

  to take a stand for true worship, we need to have a viewpoint like that of the prophet isaiah, who told true worshipers: touch nothing unclean.isaiah 52:11.. .

  jehovah's witnesses are preoccupied with religious "cleanliness" and "purity" of worship.

  at least, that's what they say.. for example, jw's aren't permitted to engage in many commonly observed holidays because of connections to pagan false worship.. christmas, easter, thanksgiving are no-no's!

  I understand the WTBS's stand on the celebrations of Xmas and Easter and birthdays....in retrospect I do...these are the times for families...family bonding time...if you remove them then family members are more able to draw apart ....= success...the org is more important to them than family values...=simple...=terribly sad....

  HOW the Watchtower holds its members

  during the great depression in the 1930's people lost their jobs, banks closed and long lines formed in the streets called "bread lines".. you had to stand in line all day to get a free loaf of bread to feed your family!.

  in a cabin in the appalachian mountains there was a family of four.

  two children (a boy and a girl), a mom and a dad who had lost his job.

  by the fact that in under one day we have 2 new members on the board, hadit and thor.

  that people are leaving that nutty religion and doing so in a rather public manner is a wonderful thing so far as i am concerned.

  if you two happen to read this, hadit and thor, please know that seeing you here has made my day!.

  top view... place the penitents feet on the "plates of justice" and flip the buttons and dials and see if the button in the center glows red.. .

  side view..... make sure you're wearing rubber gloves and rubber soled shoes.. neehaw!.

  oh... now you know what's in my elder bag.. .
