just wondering, all you non-canucks(canadians) on this forum.

what do you think of canada, and canadians?

be honest, good or bad or in between, it'd be neat to read what impression non-canadians have of us canuckastanis (thanks pat buchanan).

new light?

the oldies who can't attend the memorial can now stay home and get it delivered.

my gut feeling is that this is a sneaky way of confirming to the r&f that annointed are old... like the r&f are going to waste precious ink asking these sorts of questions - they're more likely to be asking: "should we call the police up on the child-molesting po in our congregation?

the repercussions of my argument with my mother on the phone the other week are starting to make themselves felt.

let me be clear: i've been disfellowshipped from the org for two years now.

i'm loving my freedom of thought.. so i was talking to my mom [still in the borg] and started expressing myself on various subjects on which i disagree, or at least see room for philosophical "wiggle room" with the society's viewpoints.

.

another amazing double standard by the society, the william sisters (serena, venus) are allowed to take part in competitive sports while we are told to not do so, and are encouraged not to take part in school activities soccer, football, tennis etc.... its very funny here we are seing venus waiving the american flag during the olympics and we are told not to be nationalistic and not to cheer for a nation over another nation.. the society is double faced and i will be sending a letter to them in the near future about this issues above, i am an active witness (barely) still although im ashamed to be one.

last saturday, a former ministerial servant and pioneer committed suicide in the woodinville washington kingdom hall parking lot.

he was disfellowshipped several years ago, and according to the old sister that related the story to me today, he was depressed because no one would talk to him.

i don't know how i kept calm when she explained to me that "we couldn't talk to him...he was disfellowshipped.".
