My Husband Said "Victims Of Pedophiles Come Forward Soon, Not Fifteen Or Thirty Years Later!" Right?
by AuntConnie inmy husband had gotten into a fight with a couple of victims of different pedophiles, he said in all his years of elderhood, "men and women who were sexually assualted came forward when they were old enough, they did not wait for decades to report they were abused.
you must have some kind of false memory or you are just trying to bring shame to the congregations.
" what is the truth of this?.

Wow, I seem to have made it out alright..
by GoodGuyGreg inhi, new member here, but i've lurked for a while.. for obvious reasons, i won't give too many details about myself, but i thought i'd share my story of what might in the end have been the easiest fade in recorded history.
it's going to be a wall of text, and i'm writing it mostly for myself to get it out of my system, but it is, of course, a pretty open forum, so any comments and most questions are welcome.. here goes:.
what made me realize ttatt was legalism.

lets see the same level of invasion in questioning the society when it does a 'flip-flop' on some idea!

"describe the penetration..."
a screaming example of the absence of even the most basic training in interpersonal skills.
Do they get off on this?

Attention Melbourne: Sister Williams is in town!
by WinstonSmith inattention jws of melbourne, australia!.
i see from the news tonight that sister williams has arrived in your beautiful city to compete in the australian open.
no doubt she will follow the wts advice and keep up with her spiritual routine while away from home for work and pleasure.

But such performances dont account for anything here. Womens weekly may run a story like that or "NO-IDEA" magazine but that will be that.
Aussies dont rate someone by their religion but if she can hit that ball and score the points thats what matters here. Tennis? not interested.

I got so tired (like every year) being asked "Do you have 'new year'?" I began answering saying "No Im sticking with 1993".
Do I celebrate it I would like to as the city council puts on a fantastic fireworks display. But no as i was working the 31st and have to be at work on the 1st, at 0630 I am therefore too bloody tired i didnt celebrate.

"My sister sells sin on the corner,
my mother she makes bath tub gin,
but Oh how the money rolls in "
war time song.
and my past cong is 'raising the money' for a huge kh overhaul. Most are on low wages (funny that) and the rest are pensioners.
