Karate really helped me with my self esteem...

Not because I thought I could go out and kick everybody's a$$...but it made me realize that everyone is made of flesh and blood. It gave me more of a respect for others and also made me less afraid of what they could do to me.

The other thing that helped my self esteem...and I should have mentioned this first; is the belief that God loves us unconditionally and that there is nothing we can do to earn it...takes the pressure of trying to be perfect away.

ok, bear with me, i am a little shook up.

most everyone knows we just left town one day to work, and never went back to the kingdom hall.

that was over a year ago.

Dont let those guilt feelings settle in. Remember these things:

1. You arent going to prison for leaving the Dubs.

2. This is a free country and you are free to worship or not worship as you choose

3. You know about the lies and deception that are within the organization. Take comfort in knowing that you arent apart of them.

4. That elder most likely has a good heart...he is just seriously mislead...by all means...show him love and respect...but dont be afraid to disagree with him. Show him that you appreciate his concern for you and your family.

5. Remember the reasons that you left the organization. Find strength in that.

in bibleexaminer's thread (letter read tonight) the question was asked what else we'd like to see from the society, assuming their instructions to canada legal to direct all callers to the police turns out to be correct.. i'd like to see unambiguous declarations in upcoming watchtowers--a public admission of guilt, and clear instructions to the r&f regarding contacting the authorities, so no future crackpot elders could pressure them into silence.

in an effort to help out the boys in writing, i've written the first few paragraphs and questions for them:.
