For inquiring minds:
by SheilaM injust wanted you all to know i have finally got my hubby to visit the forum.

we of course have the same ip address in case you noticed that, just didn't want you to think i had a personality disorder lol you will find we differ on everything but that is what makes for good conversation after almost 19 years lol.

Did you ever get anyone baptized?
by freedom96 inwith all the door to door work, actually finding someone to study with was difficult enough, and then to actually bring them to the point of baptizm, that seemed nearly impossible.
but it has happened.
did you ever achieve that?

I've only spoken maybe 3 times at the door in my life, so I never had the privilege of helping in the soul saving. But I was amazed with the Mormons that used to come visit me. The one missionary said he had baptized 20 people in his two years out here, and he was embarrassed by the low figure. I guess their average is MUCH higher. No wonder they're growing so fast, they baptize them on the first visit apparently!

I think my threat to sue anyone involved with cutting my son off from me was taken very seriously
LB - This is the reason why I asked about it. I thought the fact that you stated you'd 'single them out' was brilliant. I don't think it'll be worth the hassle for them. It's one thing to have the congregation sued, but it's another to have to go through that alone. Great thinking!
Jes - We all have our days, and I'm certainly no expert on tact :)
I'd give Gil a job myself, but what I do won't work out in Vegas, I've tried :(
and it's very demanding work, not really anything for someone already in a tight spot, since it's commission only, great money though for the right area.
And Heaven - I mean that, I can picture my mom coming in here slapping us all around, she'd have us in line in no time flat!

No, it didn't look like an attack LB, that's why I didn't say it was :)
I was just speaking in general.
By the way, I read your DA letter to the Elders. How's that working out for you? They giving you any trouble?

If I've ever seen anyone with a victim mentality it's you my friend. Your success lays in your own hands. Time to take charge of your life.
This may be the case, but then there are ways to go about helping him if people care so much. Listen, I see crap here over and over and over again, and does it annoy me? Sure, but then I just leave it alone. It's none of my business unless I make it my business. So what kind of mentality is it when we attack someone that obviously needs some sort of help, even if it's therapy to build confidence? I don't know Gil's history, I've never seen one of his posts, but when there are people trying to be supportive, let them be. It's really not hurting anyone. It's like when my son annoys my daughter, I tell her to ignore it, she's older, and if he insists on wearing a sock on his head, let him be (I've never actually witnessed him with a sock on his head btw). We all go through different spells in our lives, and different things effect us, but surely attacking a guy looking for help is no cure. The simple fact of the matter is, if he is constantly posting the same things, he's going through some sort of faze, or he's reaching out to us for whatever reason. Hell, maybe it has nothing to do with employment problems. For all we know he might just have a serious underlying problem he's trying to deal with, and if we shut him out, we can't help him, and if we don't want to help? Then go read something about Ray Franz or something, that kept us occupied for a while, haha. Bottom line is, if something is annoying here, why not just walk away without insulting someone? What is the harm in him posting this stuff even 1000 times, if it doesn't interest you, move on. We're all grown ups, and we have that power. He's NOT harming anyone, and if he posts this stuff until no-one listens, then he's posting to himself. I don't know, call me crazy, but I'm always willing to help a guy out, and if I get screwed in the end, so what, I did what was right and that's all that matters. And of course, as my momma always said "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all", and sometimes I think this board needs a big dose of my momma.Rev

However, I think that the idea about being a truck driver would be a good idea. Thanks RevMalk. I will looking into it.
Gil, you're in Vegas? I 'might' be able to help you out if you're interested in driving truck. Let me know, and I can make some calls for you.

PS. Give the guy a break, it's hard being down on your luck, and hitting that depression. Some support you guys are giving, if you don't like his venting, then read another thread, that simple. It's not like he asked for money or anything, he was upset and he looked to YOU for a little support. And that was his first mistake apparently!
