  2. friends

  the elders just called us.

  one called and another one got on the phone first to ask if my husband would meet with them.

  my husband told them he had nothing to say, and if they are going to make any announcement from the platform that slanders our name in any way we will sue them personally, and if we do meet with them we would only do it if our lawyers come and to tell jr brown and mario marino to come also.

  Be vocal as you can about the horrible things they are doing and have done.....
  I commend Simon and Kent for their boards and for the SilentLambs as they help to do this...

  thats a bit neat - and shows the diffrences in the US..in Pa when the old cong. I was in went to start the plans for a new hall - they had no windows in it..
  I felt it was to keep the persons attendind from being known..so to speak...it was one of the things I had a problem with..Oh well...

  Who Draws The Line and Why?

  by hillary_step in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wish to present three situations that are true to life and open up a discussion on these different scenarios and how would would personally act toward them.. 1) a 75 year old person has been a jw for the past 40 years.

  most of their friends are jws.

  they look forward to the fellowship at the meetings and though the congregation is far from perfect, they are pleased with the fact that they have a purpose in life.

  I would think that instead of trying to show them what is wrong with their religon - I'd do the opposite...
  I'd make freinds with them and show them instead of just telling them..
  this way they would have to start questioning on their own..
  and gently explain when the questions come up eventually..
  kind-of using the Borg's lessons on how to talk to householders against them..
  The persons you describe are dependent on the congregations..
  to free them from that is what is needed....
  not lectures..
  jut my thoughts..

  Braindead Journalists!

  by Kent in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  unfortunately, journalists are quite often braindead, and prints what they are told without checking the facts.

  here is an exaple of a guy who should be fired for being absolutely hopeless!.

  jehovah's witnesses: victory for human rights in eastern europe; christian religion sets legal precedent in bulgaria.. issue: oct 9, 1998. new york, oct. 9 /prnewswire/ -- after years of arrests, beatings, and loss of property, jehovah's witnesses have regained legal recognition in bulgaria.

  Just another thing that costs the members of the country more..wonder how the "loving congregations" would feel knowing that they are causing many who need to have surgery to be passed over so they can champion their cause??

  I guess it just infuriates me to know that because of the blood issue - my daughter went through a week of tests to determine what was wrong with her - and they overlooked the real cause due to the bloodissue!!! She was transfused 1 unit - a fact tha a Dr. in another hospital stated was unnessisary if they would have realised she had E. Coli to begin with..
  She almost died..all due to the Blood issue...
  Yet they allow certain parts of the blood to be given - as antibodies and such...
  i don't remember the verse in the bible saying you could take it apart..hummm......

  Sorry - this upset me and I had to vent..
