  Is Silent Lambs and Bill Bowen still relevant?

  by HappyDad in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  when i joined this forum in 2004, silent lambs was a very important venue for those who suffered the crime of child abuse in the jehovah's witness religion.

  bill bowen was instrumental in exposing a lot of the cover up along with barbara anderson.

  i was wondering if silent lambs is still relevant and does it still help abuse victims?.

  Bill was a pillar in the ExJW scene for many many years and no reason not to still consider him so. He helped a lot of people.

  Like every prominent ExJW he came with his controversies. It really doesn't bother me.

  Bill and those like him can not carry the torch forever. They blazed a trail. It's up to younger generations to pick up the ball. And they are.

  I find satisfaction seeing these hard ballers fade away out of the limelight. It means they are probably completely free from the dark shadow the Watchtower cast over our/their lives.

  An Ex ExJW is to me one of life's greatest accomplishments.

  I didn't even click on the link above, but I think a lot of atheists may have the existence of Jesus wrong.
  

  Prominent historians agree that Jesus existed.

  However, when historians focus on the life of Jesus, they discover a Jesus completely different from the one portrayed by popular culture or by religious texts.

  "Allies-turned-critics"

  Haley said the President's decision to remove US troops from northern Syria during Turkey's plans to launch a military offensive in the region would equate to the US leaving its Kurdish allies "to die."

  After Trump tweeted: "Really bad news! The Baltimore house of Elijah Cummings was robbed. Too bad!"Haley replied, "This is so unnecessary."

  In December 2017, Haley said that the women who had accused President Trump of touching or groping them without their consent "should be heard." On October 9, 2018, she tendered her resignation as the U.N. ambassador, which President Donald Trump accepted.

  I too live in an area 99.9 percent white.

  It's often referred to as the hills have eyes.

  Don't get too worked up. You have at least 30 extra days before the zombies reach you.

  Phoenix, don't you have some Black Lives Matter flyers to rip off of telephone poles in your neighborhood?

  It's game over man. Pancakes will never be the same. Adapt or die.

  so as things are now opening up and food never ran out, i've been dipping into our emergency supplies.

  they say that spam doesn't have a shelf-life, it has a half-life, but i kind of wanted to see if it was like i remembered as a kid.. as it turns out spam fritters are as delicious as i remember, probably better ('cause i did fancy ones).

  i used this recipe and they were glorious.
