Pervert, eh? Yep, definitely within the organisation.
at the end of part two, i moved to a suburb on the outskirts of one of africas richest cities, johannesburg.
here, suddenly, instead of the pallor and grime of rural south africa, beautiful mansions, bmws, and stylishly dressed people suddenly surrounded us.. .
my family felt a bit left out, since we werent exactly very well off when we arrived.
Wow. You're right...you could have been a great novelist. I was in exactly the same boat as you...the never accepted by anyone "nerd" boat. *sigh* Bad memories this brings back.
crazydrinker claims he has answered my posts in an ethical way here are just some of his posts that were unethical by the way.
i will address these issues that he has.. you know bleep, im sure someone would ask you about 'hellfire' if you knew what you were talking about, but since you dont, i doubt anyone will ask.
since i know that your answer will be wrong, why should i ask the question?
If you are talking about me, which would make sence since i am allways being singled out. I could do that but then I caoul dlearn how to use my toes to type.
Well, you sure haven't learned how to type with your fingers.
a pedophile paradise.. how can that be?.
gods organization is pedophile free.. we refuse to believe it.. we dont want to know.. so abuse defenders know where to go.. the angry apostates .
just make up their lies,.
Hits a personal note with me. *sigh*
we who were 'raised in it' and had no choice about becoming part of this goofy religion, let's discuss our experiences collectively.. personally, i always feel that it was like having parents who were nazi's or members of the kkk.
almost no one can possibly understand what you've been through.
it was so radical.. and so harmful.
For me, growing up was difficult. I didn't know how to think on my own or make my own decisions. Once when we were feeling really brave, we asked my father if it was OK for us to have a differing opinion even if we obeyed him...as in, we do what you say, but we feel differently. His exact words? "No."
I had a lot of learning to do when I moved out on my own. The stupid thing is, my parents are terrible at making decisions. They make the worst ones possible, and are always having trouble because of it.
i noticed (i'm really clever this way) that you had a link for star wars artwork in your siggie.
you sound like a really big fan.
are you on the message boards of the official site?
Ah...was just wondering. I'm a moderator over there, and wondered if I had unknowingly spoken to you already.

Yeah, I like the originals better too. But do you ever visit the official site's message board, to discuss them or just chat in general?

To Bleep:
No one cares. Go away. You're boring.

ahh, mothers.
reading jozb5s thread on her mother made me think of this.
i recently told my husband and he is even more disgusted with my mother.
Thank you for sharing that with us. I know how hard it is to speak of things like that. Your mother doesn't deserve your forgiveness. If you can forgive her, you are a better person than I am. (Which is probably true anyway.)
