  Morphs law

  by _Morpheus in

  2. entertainment

  regarding morphs laws and its simple expression: its a direct parallel to godwins law on internet debates.

  goodwins law states:.

  as an online discussion grows longer, the greater the probability of a comparison involving hitler approaches.

  ... they've accepted me!

  finance is already sorted - they're waiting for me to give them my new student number so that they can start paying me.

  just need to formally accept bristol's offer and sort out accommodation.. accommodation should be ok - i've been told priority is given to new students, plus i'm enrolling onto a program for a real degree as a postgraduate - i won't be studying gender studies or some crap like that.

  Whoop whoop! That is fantastic!

  Give yourself a huge pat on the back. Bristol is such a beautiful city, I know a few who have studied and worked there.

  Very exciting indeed, well done x

  i have been on the phone the last to two weeks calling people i've known over the last forty years most of who are still jehovah's witnesses.

  some of these people who didn't know i was "out" talked to me and some who knew i was "out" still talked to me.

  some of the those people are even elders.. by book new boy will be dedicated to all the people who have killed themselves because of being a jehovah's witness or knowing others who were jehovah's witnesses.

  I imagine we all know exJW’s or JW’s who killed themselves or tried to. This forum itself has suffered the loss of good people to suicide and JW pain. It’s a very real issue.

  I don’t understand your purpose. If you are asking to find out if anecdotally exjw’s commit suicide, you already know the answer. If you are hoping to get some statistics then that will prove near impossible and for sure you won’t get them from asking for numbers on a forum post. If you are asking for personal accounts of suicide then expect people to not want to offer that up to a stranger online.

  Exactly what are you hoping to achieve ? Are you after statistics, anecdotal stories or personal accounts?

  You may find yourself in court if you write stories about suicides based on forum hearsay.

  I understand your intent and I can feel your anger, we all shared it at one time.

  Trust me.... please... just write YOUR story. That will suffice for you and your conscience.

  As for outing people that have chosen to be a bit more human and speak to you when they shouldn’t..... maybe show them the same humanity back and keep them out of it too.

  You can still help a lot of people and it can still be therapeutic for you. I also agree that we shouldn’t live by their rules anymore.... however they are living in an emotional/spiritual/psychological concentration camp and announcing names for the ‘guards’ to hear who has broken the rules, especially in showing you a small kindness, will not bring anything but more suffering. This time however you are helping police the sheep.

  All the best with your book.

  I don’t remember you being so unpleasant. Shame. Apologies about thinking you were an elder or still attended. I sincerely thought you were.

  I’ll leave it there.....
