before my dad went into surgery he asked that i contact the people on this board and let them know how much it ment to him much it ment to him over the past month or so to be able to talk with all of you.. this is one of the few things in his life he could still enjoy.dad wanted to especially thank craig (ona ) for accepting him and apologies for anything he said that might have offended you.. my father was in so much pain over the past seven years ,god must have thought it was time,dad passed a few houres after surgery.. dad asked not to have a service and will be cremated than placed in an urn ( as he said "so he can keep an eye on mom" ) we all loved him deeply and he will be missed.

i will leave the company email should anyone want to,i will print them out for mom and the family to read.. again thanks to all, our love is with each and every one of you.. matthew mc cune [email protected]

do you think it is better to just live and let live with family that are witnesses, or will not confronting them with their beliefs come back to haunt you?

The Final Solution...

by happysunshine in

how could anyone feel good about a paradise built on the bodies of 6,000,000,000 massacred people?

how could you join this religion and feel like you are doing "the right thing", be happy about such a paradise, rejoice in its righteousness, goodness, and wholesomeness?

i can understand being raised (forced) in it, but joining it?!

I'm back ... now READ THIS

by Simon in

we've just got back from out holidays after travelling with 2 young kids for 24+ hours and logged on to see the same old people complaining about the same old things with the same worn out arguments.. the topics seem to be along the lines of:posters should be allowed to say anything they want.we want absolute free speech and seem to be under the mistaken illusion that the usa has it.there is mass moderation happening on this forum and censorship is rife.

... and so on.. all of these claims are utter crap as far as i am concerned.. now, i am not going to put up with people trying to stir things up and interfere with the majority of posters who want to use this forum properly and see me and moderation as the main topic of conversation.. keep harping on and you will be deleted.

harsh?

Nicely done Simon - if they want that kind of board, they can start their own. Don't worry about that 'free America' stuff, its a catch all phrase sometimes used to cover bad behaviour here in North America.

What is a JW childhood like?

i was wondering what it is like to experience childhood in the org.

i am an aspiring writer ad the org has always interested me...not in the sense that i'd like to join.

please send me some replies.

Man, I feel the experiences inside, physically, just reading everyones posts. I have a feeling most of our experiences are like an iceberg - the majority of what it repressents remains unexpressed. Where do we go from here? - J
