Welcome Dutchy,
Glad you told us your story. I'd like to hear the rest. How long has it been? How long were you in? What are your thoughts about religion now?

Dana,
Ask your son about the dangers of online Gaming. You start out with the easy levels. That's how they get you hooked. Then you have to spend more and more time just to keep up. Before you know it you've stayed up all night, you can't go to work and your whole life falls apart. I wish I knew the statistics on how many homeless are a direct result of online gaming. Please see someone before starting!!

Nice guys left in the cold
by Elsewhere inbutalbee started the thread "do looks really matter?
i started wondering about the "nice" guys (such as myself).... it's been my experience that women tend not to go for the "nice" guy who has a lot to offer - big heart, kind, good income, etc.
they seem far more likely to go for the aggressive "jerk" or "rebel" who treats them like dirt.. why is that?.

What ya'll don't realize is that you're trying to put men into neat well defined catagories. A nice guy is not always a nice guy. A jerk can be very nice at times. Sometimes when someone says nice guy they mean someone with good manners. Sometimes they mean romantic. Sometimes they mean the guy won't beat up the woman. In reality the perfect guy would be confident good looking, sensitive, strong willed yet open minded, willing to stand up for what he believes in, Etc. Some of these things could make someone look like a jerk. Some men define themselves as nice guys when really they are just stupid guys or maybe scared guys who will be nice to a girl for a while just because they are desperate.
I would fit into just about every catagory there is, depending on when you saw me.
Which turns your head more? A Ford Taurus or a Jaguar? A mobile home or a house on the water? Every choice comes with a price. The nice guys who also have good looks, confidence and strength of character may be asking more than you can pay. Does that make them evil? I don't think so.

This sounds great!
If there is anyone who has reciepts of donations given, I'm sure these would be big help in making a strong case against the WTS.TimB

Thanks guys for the info,
I plan to use a combination of these letter because the situation is a little unique as each case probably is.
Mustang,
Thanks for the link, I knew I had seen that thread a while back but couldn't find it.Mulan,
That's the kind of information I needed. This is more than a little scary since there is so much at stake. The letters sound good but I was wondering if they actually work. I appreciate it.I'll keep you guys posted. (Pardon the pun)

Pathofhorns,
Thank you....I'm not sure I understood you correctly but I don't really agree that it's of little consequence. My sister still has contact and a relationship with hey parents. If she were disfellowshipped that relationship would be over. I know because it happened with my brother.TimB

Has anyone had any success using this letter? What has been the reaction? I'd like to know if this is something that just blows up in your face or not.
Thanks
