  Hello Skeptic,
  Maybe you missed other threads where rex insulted everyone who disagreed with him Too bad he doesnt show others the respect he showed you.. He shows a mean nasty character in those threads. If he can dish out insults and nasty names,he can take it too. That may be the reason many are not kindly disposed to him.

  Evil Men/silentlambs

  this was a post i made six months ago, some of you may have missed it.

  i have watched many responses from those within the organization that endeavor to defend the current watchtower policy toward pedophiles.

  the most common response seems to be that any accused child molester is reported to the watchtower legal department and then reported to local authorities with cooperation from the local elders.

  Yep Francoise,
  Very true. The 'short-eyes' are segregated in prisons. Even hardened criminals have a heirarchy to crimes they will and wont tolerate. Puts the WTS firmly at the bottom of the heap.hugs,Tina

  I totally agree with your post. There are disorders diseases where there is just NO substitute for blood. I'm thinking of some of the aplastic anemias (like Negli's) that require packed rc's ....et al. Anyway,just throwing in my dos centavos lol.luv ya,T

  Hi tiger
  Welcome to the board! Let me echo the others by saying stay in school! Like Gsark,I too was a 'late-starter' thanks to wts idiocy and it can be accomplished but it's very very rough later on.
  Enjoy your studies,make new friends,let go of the guilt they've burdened you with. You're doing the right thing.regards,Tina

  Schizophrenia

  by larc in

  2. friends

  sf started a thread called "wow", where he posted a long convoluted narrative.

  she also provided a link to a diary by the same person named ann.

  after reading the diary, i stated that this was the classic writing of a paranoid schizophrenic.

  Hi larc,
  Those lines are so obviously psychotic.
  One can see the delusions of suspicion,paranoia grandiosity and reference that are the motif of this severe illness.
  'morsalcoda' caught my attention. A clear example of the disorganized speech in this disorder.
  Schizophrenia is truly heartbreaking. As it affects the social and occupational functioning of not only the sufferer but of the family as well.
  We had a woman in the clinic once who manifested severe symptoms of schiz. She was sure the clocks on the wall were telling her what to do. Another time a man was sure he was getting messages from the FBI thru the arms of his glasses. Seems a common delusion is persecutory or religious. Oftentimes they hear god/jesus talking to them.(auditory hallucinations)(FBI seems to crop up a lot,especially if one peruses cases studies in psych lit.
  That whole post held several of the diagnostic criteria for that disorder. These folks are notorious for being medically non-compliant.
  The ones that are show signs of tardive dyskinesia......this is a no win disorder. Bottom line I believe you are on the money here.Thanks for the insights.hugs,Tina

  Hi ozzie,
  Im not being sensitive. Atheism is NOT a belief system. No trigger being pulled here. Uh,I don't need you to translate what he wrote. I understand it perfectly. Amos doesnt realize atheism is not a system of belief,its more of a logical conclusion.
  And I cant ask him why he lumped it in with religious beliefs? Tina
  BTW Welcome to the board Amos.

  What is "Right?"

  by Farkel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i responded to your comments on another post, but i feel this issue is just too important and deserves its own thread.. -----------------------------------------------------.

  : even the most righteous believer of god would tend to quote abraham: is the judge of all the earth not going to do what is right?

  (gen 18:25).
