to the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you have peace!.

as you know i have, for many years now, related to you that i hear the voice of the fine shepherd, the holy one of israel and holy spirit, jaheshua mischajah.

over such years i have received many questions and comments, and engaged in various debates regarding the validity of that name.

To the Household of Dog

to the household of dog, hades, and those who go with you... may you have smoke [on the water]!.

as you know i have, for many years now, related to you that i hear the voice of the dog shepherd, the smoked one of hades and vodka spirits, auhsehaj hajahcisim [abbreviated in the ancient texts as grim, a four consonant tetragrammaton meaning smoke, drunk, and savior].

over such years i have received many questions and comments, and engaged in various debates regarding the validity of that name and my translation of it's transmutations throughout the ages including several redacted engagements of the original name.

I'm glad you didn't fall for his attempt at sucking you in again, WD. An invite to walk with a group of ppl with disabilities? Maybe you're deaf but you're not retarded. Perhaps those in the group aren't necessarily either but if an invite for that comes from him, I think it's an insult nonetheless...

Growing-up Witness was Wonderful ...Until My Bubble Broke

by Green Jade in

i was raised by a wonderful and close family.

i loved my congregation growing up.

when i would go to the meetings, i felt i could go to school the next day and deal with the pressures of that day.

Thank you for your story Green Jade. There are a lot of things in there that are familiar to almost any of us here.

Even though my family wasn't the target racism per-se, I understand what it's like to be discriminated against simply because of being "different". My mother is a European with a heavy accent and she is still in denial about discrimination in the JW org and how it has affected her and her children. The lovelessness within various congregations sickened me and made me depressed as well.

I am happy you have such a loving and supportive mate to share your life with. Please, hold tightly on to that. Most of all, don't let any JW guilt you into taking your kids to the meetings as it is almost a sure way of making them mentally ill and "damaged". It's just better to drop the meetings altogether for the sake of your family...

Take care,

Murder mysteries involving religious "cults" are literally a dime a dozen. The blurb alone almost induces a snooze and would be of interest mainly to the very tiny percentage of potential readers who have some connection to the Witnesses. You'd have to beef it up with compelling characters and spine-tingling plot twists - and the title looks all noise and no substance...otherwise your novel will go the same way as the latest Awake or Watchtower: The next available trash can.

OUCH! Not nice dood...
