for the benefit of my children and others that you think might enjoy it.. i recently bought a 40.00 program that allows a teacher or other person to create a quiz or test for students.

i can enter all the info into the quiz and make it available to any and all that want to visit it online to take the quiz but i need help in coming up with some good questions and also the right answers.

the objective is to be able to relevent info into my childrens minds so that they will have less of a chance of being brought back into this cult in the near future.

....watching their videos?.

i am a subscriber to quite a few of the ex jw youtube channels and i enjoy many of the videos.

i do cringe a bit when i hear the person in the video remind the jw that they "should not be watching these videos as it is against the rules and council of the wtbts, gb, elders taking the lead, etc,..".

(that "within the next year" was to throw off anyone trying to figure out who i am).

and i was thinking about a cake for me,... do you think it would be wrong to have one made in the shape of,...."john the baptist head"?.

i was thinking of having it on a large platter we have here in the house.

SmithMandy defection (alleged) what could have prevented this?

i woke up this morning to a few post trying to get the moderators attention to take care of a few post by user smithmandy.. so like a user will do, they start looking for these post to see what is going on.

i was not able to see these post as they had already been edited by the mods.. i've also thought that possibly smithmandy had set their account to autologin and a fmaily member found the site and posted the content.

i was not able to see it so do not know if there was more content that would show something else.
