I found an old poem I wrote in 1983 (about Christianity)
by TerryWalstrom inrummaging through old boxes i happened upon a poem i wrote in 1983 about (of all things) the history of christianity!yipes!i don't know that it is worth the effort of transcribing...but--how could i deprive you all of such a strange poem, eh?_______christianity?________.
in the beginning, the pagans were winningthe romans were fomenting blame,christians were tested in being arrested entirely because of their "name.".
when rome was set burning, 'twas nero whose churningout rumors brought christians alarmsoon fed to the lions and even while dyingwould not recant braving such harm!.

He says yes, that he is prepared to work for Jehovah (WTH), and that it will be a wonderful time. Life during the 1,000 reign never sounded appealing to me even as a kid, it sounded scary! I encourage my brother to do more research into the 1,000 reign, but he's not a big reader. He only goes off what the brothers have said from the stage.

22 q. just on that point, mr jackson, has the governing body23 considered apologising to survivors of child sexual abuse24 at the hands of elders within the organisation?25 a. i haven't been in any discussions with regard to that.26 27 q. is that something that you foresee might happen ‐ in 28 other words, that an apology at least be considered?29 a. the governing body has apologised on other matters, so30 for me to say ‐ i can't speak collectively for everybody, 31 but we have apologised on things in the past, in other32 areas, so it is perceivable.. .
