  many, many years ago lived an emperor, who thought so much.

  emperor's clothes were more admired.. .

  By accident! First contact thought it was a JW site. I freaked out and signed off. Sometime later happen to hear on another site mentioning the name regarding a controversary with SL. I needed to check it out.

  Glad I came back because it would had been my loss! And to further my healing process.

  hey folks, not to send chills through anyones spine, but it has come to my attention, there was a former member to this forum that seems to be causing some members (women) some problems and unnecessary grief.

  Thanks Ray!

  I gave out my email recently on another site. And shortly after received some religious garbage!

  I realized people are not always upfront and I need to keep it to the sites PM. A learning experience.

  Watchtower to pay for Silentlambs trip

  by Dogpatch in

  2. friends

  from silentlambs (bill bowen):.

  on thursday of this week world wide work money will again be spent to protect a pedophile.

  in addition it will also be spent to pay money to a disfellowshipped person in order to find a way to prevent them from assisting the court case of abuse survivors.

  I support Bill Bowen efforts. What little I know of him personally. I"m sure he has his ducks in row. This sounds like a huge step for SilentLambs.

  I find it odd for the wt paying his expenses. Considering he is a Apostate!!!!!

  I need to put my 2 cents with ButterKnife of Blah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  BKofB quote" I expect the WT to defend themselves and not make some disgruntled witness rich with our donations."

  All the tea in china will not change the memories and feelings of abuse. Far as I am concern they are scars for life. No amount of money will change that. It is'nt about getting rich is saying that there won't be anymore abuse tolerated in the orgainzation. And their policies need to be address.

  The point of it all is to make it safe for all children!!!!

  Are You As Zealous An Ex-Witness As You Were A Jehovah's Witness?

  I did'nt see myself zealous in the org. I was one of those hanger arounds in the trooth!!

  My zeal is channeled in the direction of making a awareness with others and fighting the cause of child abuse, sexual abuse, Alcohol , drugs, domestic abuse and rape. This is a committment to self and others.

  For me zeal is not worn on shirt sleeve but whats in the heart.

  Ex-husband MS at the time. Was busted by the police for being a peeping tom. Charges pressed. Court hearing recommended counseling. Which he lasted one session.

  There were no consequences given from the Elders. He told me that he told them. The response "was you know how men are?" And supposedly excused his behavior. I have a sense the ex was not telling the truth.

  Shortly after we moved. Thats the pattern when situations get hot. Move out of Dodge!!!!

  The guy has been running ever since 1971!!!!!!
