That's funny. I used to have a cat who liked country music. Not my thing, but we would play it for her in the car on the way to the vet to keep her calm.

Richard is either 14 or he sounds like he is because he's been denied an adequate education.
Richard, hon, learn the rules of debate if you want to engage in one.

JW Sister: raped, pregnant what does she do?, abortion or adoption?
by Olivia Wilde inthis question came out frequently from a situation known to some of us who knew of 2 cases.... if a single or married sister gets rapped by stranger or incest, a pregnancy results, she is not allowed to have an abortion but neither is she allowed to give it up for adoption?...i always question why not up for adoption?...
no you will be blood guilty because the child won't be raised in the "truth"... hmmmmm does anyone heard of that?
is it a matter of consciousness?

Somehow I think TTWSYF just made that 1% of 1% statistic up.
I've known 2 people personally that had fetuses with such severe deformities that they were incompatible with life. They would have had babies who would have died shortly after birth because they could not survive independently.
One of them suffered from anencephaly which means the fetus had no brain. No chance at life.
Both mothers decided to terminate the pregnancies as soon as they found out rather than allow the suffering and immediate death of a full- term delivery. These pregnancies were slightly less than halfway through and the abnormalities were found at the regular midterm ultrasound.
It is these sad pregnancies that I think about when I vote to keep abortion legal. There is no way that I believe it would ever be better to force a full-term pregnancy in cases like these. And, if abortion were illegal, then they would have no ability to reduce suffering by terminating early.

What is your purpose or what do you wish to accomplish while a member of this board?
by Tenacious inwhen i joined this forum i was seeking more people who felt the same way i did in terms of seeing the jehovah's witness organization for what it truly was; a false prophet.. once i found like-minded members i slowly started to open up and participate more in trying to help others that were also exiting mentally and physically.
today, i offer support to anyone who desires it regardless of what they believe or not believe.. so what is your purpose on this board?.
support?

I'm always looking for ways to deal productively with JW family members.
And I try to give advice to those who are struggling if I feel like I have any insight to give.
And I've grown to really like a lot of you. :)

40 years on - and still in Damage Control mode!
by Bungi Bill inearlier this morning, i posted off to the the institute of engineers an application for membership as an "engineering associate":.
- today being just over 40 years since the congregation's retards elders made me abandon my apprenticeship.. (in this part of the world, the pre-1975 hype was taken to that level.
not being content to prevent young persons attending university, they went one step further and treated with hostility any youngster who would "tie up five years of their lives" by entering into an apprenticeship.

Major congratulations! It feels good, doesn't it?
I am not a crier, but I bawled like a baby when I finally got my degree. It's just that emotional.

Heaven, if you like "Stellaluna," consider "Verde" by the same author, Janell Cannon. It's about a young green snake with lots of energy that desperately doesn't want to become an old, boring yellow snake like all of his elders. Does he stay young and green forever?
Glorious illustrations on every page done in "Liquatex acrylics and Prismacolor pencils."
