  Anyone watch Oprah about Tony Alamo's child brides?

  by NiceDream in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it was so sad to see these children raised in a crazy religion and abused by their preacher (tony alamo).

  what was more disturbing was how similar some things were to jws, such as blaming the victim instead of the abuser.. one child bride made an escape from tony and ran away from his house, running for 2 miles before she reached the home of a complete stranger and asked if they could help her.

  they let her stay the night and gave her money for a bus ticket to her mother in california.

  i haven't been on the board for a while, but i thought you'd dig this.. it was taped last week at a reading from my novel.

  the first part is about the hot girls at assemblies and how we'd sit through doom and gloom talks.

  part 2 is a scene where gabe is found out for having a girlfriend.. http://vimeo.com/12066637.

  Anxious about meeting...

  by gutted in

  2. experiences

  i know there are other topics related to this, i started one earlier similar to this but here goes anyway.. so i skipped a couple of meetings of the co visit to hang out with some "worldly" friends and we went out of town.

  i think some of my closer "friends" at the hall found out from my family and now i am dreading going to the next meeting and hearing their encouring "where were you!?"..

  it fills me with anxiety.

  2. friends

  i've always been told that i have a very good personality, that i'm humorous, etc.. one elder called me over and said that i was "smiling too much".

  the other elders talked to the elder who counseled me and he came back to say that i should be like i was .

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  this may sound like a funny title, but it is actually true.

  just to give a brief background on myself, i've been a jw for nearly 12 years now.

  i didn't grow up in a jw family, nor is anyone else in my immediate family a jw (except my wife and her family).
