Bill Bowen's unfortunate attack
by Jim Penton inlike carl olof jonsson, this is the first time i have ever written to this forum.
i have decided to do so, however, because i am saddened at what bill bowen has chosen to do in reference to ray franz.
let me say that i given bill full marks for publicizing an issue child abuse and the watchtower cover up of it and for taking a stand that has cost him a great deal personally.

Hey Madison!!! It's so nice to have you!!! I look forward to getting to know you better!!! You're probably smart about keeping a low profile. Word got out that I sent a Christmas card and all hell broke lose!!! It turned into a full blown witch hunt. My family is screwed up to begin with and the whole Jehover Witnet thing, it didn't help matters! Actually after time, I've come to realize that I'm better off if I stay away from my hover family anyway. They're a bunch of hypocrites. They're all one big fruit basket!!!
Tell us more about yourself! What part of the world do you live? I'm close to Nashville Tn. My hubby and I D.A. ourselves in 1999. Push came to shove and we had to stand our ground. Long story!!! Glad we're out for good though!!!
Hope you stick around and we see you more on the boards!!!

Jehovah's Witness Ghost Story
by kenpodragon ini was about twelve and a young "brother" invited me to stay the night at his house.
my mom wanted me to be make friends with witness families, so getting permission was not that hard to do.
his mom and dad picked me up at around five and we went back to his house.

LB, same here, I'm glad that you had the guts to stand up and speak your mind. So many people cowardly tip toe around the Jehover Witnit's, afraid that they will be shunned, hoping to just fade out quietly. I've never been one to keep my thoughts to myself! A tell it like it is kind of person! And when it came to the elders, I did just that!
A pat on the back to ya buddy!

Venting *#&(#*!
by Tashawaa ini'm getting that religious people realllly get on my nerves - no matter how "well meaning" they are.
i read in one of the posts some advice to the newly "ex'd" and i appreciated it, especially the point how other's may want to "save" you now that you've left your religion.. get this... i work with 2 born-agains and my boss is a mormon.
they've all made some comments about that "i shouldn't let this experience destroy my faith in jesus" (tolerable, assuming i believed in him) however, one co-worker has a new zeal for her born-again faith and has raised many topics with me because she respects my opinion.

All this reminds me of back when I was a Jehover Witnit and we had a pioneer sister and a brother to get into two separate car accidents the same weekend. The brother was a good brother and worked hard to support his wife and kids, but he didn't survive the accident. I remember how all the brothers and sisters at the hall commented on how Jehover's spirit was with the pioneer sister, how valueble she was to the borg because she was a pioneer. It always pissed me off royally because I felt, was this poor brother less valued because he wasn't a pioneer. I even commented about it to my brother who was a elder. He said I had a bad attitude. That wasn't anything new! They make me sick too.
