  well, since i've been rather "inactive" and haven't started any new threads in a coupla months at least, i want to get your thoughts on this subject.. i've been reading a fair deal (since i'm a fast reader, i've always been able to keep up with most of the posts.

  ) but lately (past month) i really haven't been feeling drawn to jw.com.

  i have nothing but admiration for simon, ang, bill and shiela but i do have some questions worth raising.

  I am sorry lDH, if you think I am a ''lurker'', and a ''troll''. I didnt even know what that meant until my sister explained it to me just today.

  I posted a sentence or two, that I explained earlier. At that time, I had no interest in these boards. I didnt think I had any relevent info for anybody.

  However, I read many posts from people who felt they are abandonded by their mothers, and that hit me hard.

  When I switched ISP's, and tried to post on the board, I had to have an email address. I couldnt use my old one, naturally, I had to enter my new email.

  Also, after talking to my sister, who is teaching me about the internet, I logged in under a username. I remain who I am, and still kept my same ISP username, only with the new domain extention. Simon knows this is true.

  I did not attack you, LDH, but surely you realize the title of your post was infammatory, and hurtful.

  I am a ''newbie'', and a single post does not make me otherwise.

  I am trying to copy and paste posts, so I can use your own words, but boo hoo, no luck. So what I will say now is not a direct quote,

  LDH in essence said that this board wasn't created for the purpose of protecting peoples emotions.

  I cant think of a reason it was created other than to heal, and help those who have shared experiences. I was just about to write, ''this will be my last thread on this subject''. But something tells me LDH will say something that requires further comment, and if I respond, she will say, ''See i told you she was a liar''.

  My posts are my posts, I am a ''newbie", I am honest. Thanks to those of you who believe me...

  multiple user?

  lets clarify. a couple of months ago I stumbled onto jw.com. I read a few threads, and one popped out, by ''YOU KNOW'' that I responded to, it is archieved if you want to see it. I told him to toast a marshmallow, and wait around while the LSD wore off.

  I signed in under my real name, fool that I am. Since then, I changed ISP servers, cheaper, thats all there is to it. I am not ashamed of my identity, but am naive about message boards. I am learning.

  I am still at a loss as to how someone can be seemingly ''jeolous'' of an abuse victim..

  theres the big mystery, please dont disfellowship me!

  so, if signing in twice, because i switched servers makes me a ''multiple user'' , then I am guilty as charged.

  I still find the thread's title offensive. I wish I could switch places with you, so I wouldn't be a ''holy grail''

  All right sister, you asked for it... I may be a ''newbie'', but here and now is where I speak my peace.

  You say, you dont ''roll out the red carpet to victims of sexual abuse"" blah, blah blah.

  Well here is a news flash for ya, You are not the owner of this board, nor do you control the contents. (Thank God)

  Who the hell elected you judge and jury over anyone elses experience, and whether or not they are truthful?

  I have also noticed that many or YOUR posts are of a sexual, winky, winky nature, even out of context to the origianal post.

  You speak with such authority to the belittlement of others, so I just wanted to tell you how abrasive you are.

  ga head, respond, I'm a big girl, I can take it.

  devastated youth...my sister was sucked in

  by notawitness in

  2. experiences

  my sister married into a family of witnesses.

  her husband isn't a witness though, he never believed, but was forced to attend meetings untill he turned 18. when he married my sister she got sucked in to his family's beliefs.

  now she won't spend time with us, says she was born into worldly things and she doesn't think it would be good of her to come back.

  I know it is very painful to watch your sister get sucked in. I hope you just keep loving her, even when it is taxing. I went through the same thing with my sister, and she eventually came to her senses.

  Being a jw is really hard. Most people cant live up to their standards, and have to find stress relief. Give your sister everything she does not give you, love, acceptance, and comfort. She will come around. Don't tell her she is wrong, or mistaken. It assaults them to the core. Just be there, and let her learn for herself.

  DJ,

  I just posted to one of your older posts, I like reading your opinions. Please reconsider leaving the boards. I'm a ''newbie'' too, and am very sensitive.

  Some people do not realize how fragile we are when we are at a crisis. There are many people on the boards, and we are all just people. We all have opinions and experiences unique to us. I hope you change your mind and stay around, like I said before, I like your input and find your posts meaningful.

  i am having a very difficult time and i am here right now because i know in my heart, that when i explain what has just happened to me a few minutes ago, you will understand.

  many of you are no doubt going through the same thing.. within several posts here, i have spoken of my mother.

  my dear sweet mother, who just turned 78, and who has been a faithful jw since 1959. she abandoned me in 1981, when i decided to leave the borg, and for twelve years she did not speak to me, write to me, call me, or visit me.

  Sentinel,

  My heart is breaking for you. How sad. It is like losing your mother, over, and over and over. I am so sad for you baby doll....

  Farkel, I am sad for you too. I am proud of you though. To say '' enough is enough, and too much is nasty"!

  Anyway, We all have these sad, sad "stories", that are really our lives, and I am just so glad we have a place to meet and talk about our feelings, and make friends. God knows we cant find it in our families...

  Hey, if you wanna go to church, go with my blessings, dear.

  I choose twenty years of no ''organized religion''. I studied all kinds of religions and the theories of those with no religion at all. I ended up attending a couple of churches, until I found one right for me.

  It was a Baptist Church. Very loving. In fact, it started the homeless shelter-food kitchen in the basement, and secured it a home across the street. We could tithe, or not tithe. We could tithe, and designate the money to wherever we chose, and were given proof that it was given.

  We have since moved away, and miss our church very much. We now have started having the Lord's Supper in our kitchen, an informal affair, but adequate. And try to just love and support the hurting. Some people tell us that we should "Beware" of organized religion, but I dont agree. My only advice to you is, take time to read the bible for yourself. No interpretations, no analogies, no b.s.

  Christianity is a learning process. Dont let anyone rob you of your intellect. You are just as powerful a Christian as any preacher, minister, priest, etc. I hope you have a wonderful experience at church. I remember my first partaking of the Lord's supper, and I cried tears of joy! It was great.
