Ah, yes.....New Light! has shone forth on their molestation policy, they are now in compliance with CPS....remember when they said they would never allow disgruntled apostates to dictate policy to them .....well, keep on keeping on you disgruntled apostates, gravity is present. LDH..so true, for them, its still about their image and not the victims welfare. May that organization be relegated to the trash heap it justly deserves.

Hey Grunt..and everyone else who is consumed with WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION; ... wasn't it three hijacked airliners that caused the 9/11 attack? WOW!! I think they then referred to it as "low tech" terrorism. Bush's attack on Afganistan went well didn't it? Like, where is Osama? And didn't we hear today about a fire fight over there that was the worse since the invasion? Something is not quite right with this administrations gauge for "success"

Rather than comment on things as arbitrary as the notion that "if a person has a lot of money, he obviously worked harder than most"(which is just one of many fallacies that highlights why having a lot of money is so appealing; image, baby, image), lets talk of things that were said by this administration in justifying their rationale for tax cuts. We're told it will help the economy because those getting the break will RE-INVEST it. Riiiight! The reality is that the majority of those who would qualify for the break (and I'm not referring here to those that barely make it at $300,000.00, like some on this illustrious site) have oodles of cash for investment right now. If there not investing at present, what is going to motivate them to do so after than tax-cut? And please don't play that propagandized sympathy card about it allowing older dividend recepients not to have to eat cat food in their golden years. This country has truly become a "corpocracy" and the president is sitting on the board.

More Confirmation
by worf inhere in jamaica queens new york, one of the congregations is named, rochdale congregation.
my brother-in-law went to the meeting at this congregation this past sunday and he saw that notices from the wts have been posted on the bulletin board which officially say that the wts is moving all printing operations upstate to either patterson or wallkill.
evaluating.

Yes, legal fees and settlements do add-up. I just hope that many R&F witnesses will see through whatever spin is put on this and wake up to the fact that the WBTS has gained such valued property holdings by squeezing millions from those that are usually struggling financially themselves....JWS..I heard that in one area a Kingdom Hall was sold not to long ago and turned into a funeral home...reports say that current owners take better care of it than the previous ones.

A tale of three sisters.........
by Tatiana init started in 1956. a girl was born.
with lovely strawberry blonde, curly hair.
dad and mom kissing.

Dear Tatiana,
Horrific!
I am one of many sisters. Four have the same parents. We four no longer attend the KH. We four have had similar struggles. Much in your story I could identify with.
I agree with you. Education is the way out. I work 40+ hrs a week and go to college. I am in my mid forties. I read something beautiful on the board at school the other day:
"Knowledge is not information, Knowledge is transformation".
I have my share of PostTraumaticStressDisorder, Al-Anon Issues, Abandonment & Rejection issues etc. All I can say is, if you are triggered or frightened or despairing, get help. Reach out. Go to Al-Anon or CoDependents Anonymous or a Women's Shelter. Find out why we repeat harmful patterns in our life. First and Foremost, Love yourself, nurture and care for yourself the way you wish your Mother would have. She is incapable of stepping up and doing that job. Only you can do it now.
All the best. No criticism. Only Empathy.

confused and disfellowshipped
by daddysgirl inhello, ive been disfellowshipped for being with my boyfriend who is a witness also, i'm sad and dont know what to do now, so ive been looking around for answers, and found this site.
i don't want to go back because the people i thought i loved, the fellow brothers and sisters , didnt seem to care when i was having problems, and i wondered where the "love" was in the organization.
so there is my problem.

Daddysgirl,
Welcome to this site. You have made a very important first step in finding real help. Something to consider about "going back"; do you know that many battered women feel the need to "go back" or stay with their abuser? Why is that? Do some research and you'll see that there are many similarities with the "Organization".

This site mentioned in California paper
by dannyboy inthis website has received a brief but favorable mention in the sacramento, california "bee" in an article about the bryant tragedy (in oregon).
the bryants had lived in the sacramento area, hence the paper's interest.
here's a link to the on-line story: .

Dannyboy,
Thanks for the article. I'm sure it is receiving a lot of coverage in that large metro area. We are close to Placerville and will try to make the memorial.
