my dear know_you: .
having been moved by your recent posts, i find myself terrified by my precarious position as one associated with scurrilous apostate scum.
i have supped at the table of demons, cavorted with the devious likes of farkle, alanf, seven006, ginnytosken, and others of their ilk.

I must agree with you IW. This would be a tremendous embarrassment for the Society. If they were published, would there be any way that the Society could deny their authenticity?

this is just an update on an earlier post about jw youth dies in car crash.
long story short, he was killed when his car struck a pole because he fell asleep at the wheel.
his father had recently kicked him out of the house (he was only 18) becuase he was missing meetings.
Yes, I must agree that their tendancy to believe that anything happening to those who aren't as active is a result of their "inactivity", etc., is ridiculous and childish.
I had to laugh when reading your post, Scully. Everyone's been waiting with bated breath for something bad to happen to me for about 15 years now. Even my wife, who is still in, was commenting on it one time.
I looked at her and grinned. "Honey, I'm quite sure that when I die at 105 years of age that someone will be around saying, 'See! I told you it would catch up to him!' " She broke out laughing.

Welllllll ---- let's phrase it this way --- I am approaching something that, while certainly not a complete truth, is decidedly satisfying.
There's a phenominal amount to it though, and isn't something that one can write out in 25 words or less. I'll say this though. Many times during such times of puzzlement it is advantageous to back up and look for a bigger picture. That's what I've done, and from that standpoint there is very little that doesn't make sense.
If you're interested in seeing a couple of examples of what I mean, look for these two posts in the archives under my name:
"What Is Truth"
"The Natural Life Cycle of a Religion"
I'd post the addresses, but I'd probably lose what I've written here if I left this screen and searched for them. But, I think both of them will include things that you haven't seen before. (GGG)

suit targets jehovahs witnesses
benton complaint about sex abuse and church policy is said to be the first of hundreds across the u.s.. .
the setup is such that the elders are the voice of the watchtower, and the watchtower is the voice of christ.
This suit was one of the stories on radio news this morning at 7:30 in Eugene, Oregon. It had been used as a teaser to advertise the news show for hours beforehand.
Path --- I wholeheartedly agree with you. Concise definitions of Watchtower phrasology and matching arguments are desperately needed.

hi, this is windrider,.
i've spent a great deal of time and research into all that has been occuring within the watchtower world, especially since the "siege" on 9/27/02.having personally experienced the stupidity of the watchtower spin doctors during the "seige", i can in all honestly say that these people have committed "theocratic treason" against the god they claim to worship and betrayl against the sheep they claim to "protect.
" the entire scope of who they really are is very obvious, when one examines it's infrastructure.

i have just been informed that our good friend queenie is in the hospital due to compications caused by diabetes.
she is likely to remain in the hospital for at least a couple of weeks.
i am sure that you will all join me in wishing our queenie a speedy recovery.
I was talking to a couple of her interns a little while ago. They said that she was cuter than a bug's ear, but that it was rather disconcerting the way she kept biting them in the ankles.

received this in email tonight and thought you all would like it, especially you dads;.
lew wthe cost of kids .
i have seen repeatedly, the breakdown of the cost of raising a kid, .
DakotaRed --- Isn't that the truth? We had six, and I love them of all ages. Our situation was different as the last 4 were all deliberate. The youngest would get about 6 years old and then my wife couldn't stand it anymore as she loved babies. So she'd want another. She lasted 8 years on the last one, and then came to me: "Just one more?" So they are spread from 17 to 41 years old.
We got a letter from my 3rd daughter a while back and I laughed until the tears were rolling down my cheeks. I wrote it up as a small article in case I could use it later. Here it is:
Childs Play
We received a letter from our daughter Judy the other day. She lives out of state with her husband Daniel and two little ones, Lindy, 6 years old, and Saylor, 4. She recounts an instance that, if there ever was one, demonstrates the wonderful and wacky world that parents of tiny ones live in. Those of us who are parents should identify with the picture of a young mother or father throwing their hands up in the air and hollering, "NOW what am I supposed to do????"
The following are her words, quoted verbatim:
"We had a little excitement (thats the wrong word) the other day. Saylor and Lindy were playing with Saylor's tiny Batman characters. (About one inch high.) Saylor got the bright idea to stick one (Robin) in his butt crack.
"I wasn't home at the time and Daniel was sleeping. Lindy came running in the bedroom crying in horror. "Saylor's Batman got lost up his butt!!"
"Needless to say, Daniel was a little confused at his rude awakening! He finally woke up enough to get the whole story, but didn't quite know what to do.
"Then I got home. He took me in the bedroom privately and told me about it. I was sure he was just playing a trick on me. How could Saylor possibly have a toy stuck up his butt, and why would he do such a thing?!? But he promised me that he was telling the truth.
"Then I got really concerned my son was getting too curious about his body. So I had a talk with Saylor privately. But most of my fears disappeared when he explained everything --- "Mom", he says, "I wanted to put Robin in my butt crack because I'm waiting for a humongus toot to come out so Robin can explode across the room!"
"I tried really hard, but I could not keep a straight face. So we discussed together why that wasn't really a good idea. But we laughed together too. Now the only problem was getting it out!
"Well, for three days we checked the toilet every time he went poop. But we never found poor Robin. Then one day as I was vacuuming, guess who I almost ran over? Yes, Robin. He must have fallen out of Saylor's butt crack and never got lost in there at all!
"Saylor hugged me so hard when I showed him who I had found. Ive been his hero ever since.
"Well, that's what life is like with Saylor --- never boring!!!"
Ahh, yes --- Ain't life grand?
