i thought you all would enjoy this article and maybe have some comments.
it was sent to me by j phil reed, a white man who is a member of the clergy of the catholic church.
he and my husband went to college together.
This article was zipping among lots and lots of black folks emails
i know for i got it at least 11 times from different black folks
i try to stay out of the racial stuff cause it touches folks so deeply and emotionally many times, but i will share this thought
for many black like myself we realize that good and bad folks are found regardless of race, but many times we see the media and white persons make certain statements that as a black man in my mind are interpeted a certain way- these are 2 statements that just kill me and many other blacks EVERY time we hear them:
1. "How could such a thing happen in this community we live in "AN ALL AMERICAN" COMMUNITY.
2. "Those type things DON'T happen in OUR COMMUNITY"
so for many blacks they see white persons esp here in the USA in denial or padding the facts-
many times when a black kid 12/13 yrs old does something like that he is refered to as:
1. An Animal
2. A Beast
3. A Monster
4. He is a Hoodlum
4. Lock his Black A$$ up and throw away the key. etc
yet many times if it is a white kid we often read
1. He is just a Child
2. He needs Professional Help
3. TIME OUT IS WHAT HE NEEDED. etc
SO FOR many blacks that type of message is interpeted as a Double Standard-
just wanted to give you an inside look into the "HOOD"
just my 2

what have you learnt since you left the borg?.
have you become a better person?
have you worked on traits you didn't like about yourself when you were a witness?.

so along the line of other threads about mortality and every disease known and unknown to man, i pose a question:.
if you are an active jw, how much time per week do you spend on regular exercise (not the sunday afternoon softball game)?.
if you are an inactive or ex-jw, same question, only: how long did it take you to realize that regular exercise should be a part of your life to maintain/improve your health?.

loved your post
my wife is here on floor tripping out
following is a slightly improved version of something i posted onto various web site forums a few months ago.
i hope it helps those working so hard on this subject.
what is revealed about the societys motivations regarding reporting (or not) of child abuse to secular authorities?
Friend is at it again - notice what he says to Tina:
Tina
I do not agree completely with ideas that the Society does not conduct itself charitable at all because I have seen it with my own eyes.
#######################
this is why i love having this guy post on the worldwide web so that NONJW can see the "Mindset" that JW have.
Tina made a "general" statement that the WT is not known for being Charitable as an Org. and Friend comes back and states :
I do not agree completely with ideas that the Society does not conduct itself charitable at all
Did you notice the Legal Jargon once again "charitable at all"
well of course the wt is not 100% uncharitable
but as an Org they are not charitable- friend tries his very best to SEPARATE THE JW PERSONS-- From THE JW ORG
While we all sit back a laugh at him cause we know that the Org IS JW and jw are the org
they live and die by what it says
they don't "Fart" until they know what the SOCIETY SAYS ON THE MATTER
let's take the matter of being charitable- the WT doesn't have 1 ORGANIZED ARRANGEMENT to give out one can of Pork N Beans
think about this folks there are some 100,000 Cong worldwide
yet if any body of elders decided as a congreagation to setup a little Pantry to give out Pork N Beans to ANY PERSON IN TOWN that needed it regardless of whether they studied or not
what would The Service Desk do to them?
so all this Individual stuff friend is talking about is a joke
while it is true that WT will help folks out if there is a diaster,
flood earthquAKE---but to consider that WT is a Billion dollar org with not 1 location on the face of the earth to give out One can of Pork n Beans is sad
but then what would we expect in light of the fact that the WT has no support system in place for it's own missionaries/ traveling men and thier wives
instead they recently KICKED IT OUT TO THE LOCAL JW TO PROVIDE
you have a CO who went on the road in 1961 as a 42 yr old elder thinking and believing the end was around the corner and now he is 82yrs old with no retirement plan and hoping that he and the wife gets called into bethel or that he has made enough friends over the yrs to give him a HOOKUP
BUT FRIEND KNOWS THAT AS AN ORGANIZATION THIS CO HAS been SHAFTED
SO since wt has no charity for thier own people- i guess we really can't be surprised that they have nothing to offer folks who don't sell thier books
just my 2 cents
