Wow, what a situation.
They care more about their imaginary "spritual danger" than the abusive treatment your kids received. Good job stating your case.
today, i was on the scene of the local congregation of jw's where my ex-wife and her husband attend.
physical, emotional and mental abuse has been purpetrated upon my kids for eight years now.
they have been victims of alcoholism, verbal bashings and they have been made to watch their stepfather beat the hell out of their mother and then be halled off to jail without saying a word to anyone for fear fo reprisal from him and their mother.

the short version is: my daughter fell in love several years ago with another teenager; both were dubs in good standing, both later reproved for expressing that love in some manner not platonic.
boy moves away.
girl moves away, in another direction.
My advice would sort of sound like this: Consider it a painful learning experience and move on.

please, please put them back!
don't you know i just look at the pictures???
I've had the same boring avatar for quite some time, and I have no plans to change it, even though it's like...... so 1975.
I always had faith that Star Trek is real. Thanks for confirming it drwstn!

Excuses, excuses, drtwsn.
You mean dead, or just gone from here?
Oh heck, nobody would notice either way.
i used the following quote from mark 9:38-40 in another thread, but thought it might be worthy to have people comment about it in its own thread: .
"john said to him: "teacher, we saw a certain man expeling demons by the use of your name and we tried to prevent him, because he was not accompanying us.
but jesus said: "do not try to prevent him, for there is no one that will do a powerful work on the basis of my name that will quickly be able to revile me, for he that is not against us is for us.
It is different with the religious systems that now preach in Jesus? name. It cannot be said that all these are not against him for that reason, for they are against Jehovah?s faithful witnesses who do preach Jesus and his kingdom. So as they are against the least of these his brothers, they are against him and their mere use of Jesus? name does not gain favorable recognition of them as true followers. Matthew 7:20-23 (NW) applies to them:
By making themselves, rather than Jesus, the focal point of the modern application, the wts craftily gets around the problem.
As Gumby wrote, most religions barely know the jws and don't exert energy opposing them. Most Christians are simply busy trying to tell others about Jesus, and/or busy living their lives, without giving thought to what the jws are up to.
do you remember it?
mine was in the 7th grade by a boy named joe.
it took me by surprise and i was dissapionted, because he tried to swallow my face!
My first kiss was a mirror. I just thought I was so cute!
Narcissist Class.
how would that work?
i know that if they typed in jehovahs witness or whatever, and this site came up then they could surf the site and may happen to stumble on your posts and find you.
but what i dont know is, say your name is jane doe, they type jane doe in google, or whatever they use to search, and jane doe comes up with posts you have made to this site.
It has happened that people have been "busted" for posting here. One poster reported about 2 yrs ago that her relative logged on here and eventually found her posts. Not helping matters was her avatar, which was a photo of her.
Another poster, Joyzabel, was found out as well, and was confronted with it by elders. I'm not exactly sure how she was busted.

Their 'out' is the phrase "the Christian congregation had not yet been set up". They say that once that happened, it would be necessary to be part of the group. To them, Jesus' words had a limited-time-only application.
