  the following is copied from off another forum, as i thought it ought to be given as wide a publicity as possible because it seems most people here don't have a really good understanding of the issue and policy of the wts.. can jws be df'd just for believing differently?.

  Ruby:

  You already wrote me but thought I would answer I am in community college and finished my first sememster, I passed with a 3.5 and am tickled purple! I also had a teacher that submitted an excerpt from my novel(not to be confused with the novel my husband has written and getting published not sure I'll ever get my done LOL) to the creative writing teacher and she waived the prerequisite for her class YEA!!!! She loved my writing, which is so weird cause I never would show anyone until I put a poem I wrote on Silent Lambs for the victims.

  I see people my age (errrrr 38ish) and older at the school so Ruby go for it. I'm getting my associates then I will transfer to Park and gor for either PR or Graphic Design.

  I think I enjoy it more knowing I was told I couldn't do it for so long!!!

  To All:

  Did you get the excerpt I know Utopian_Raindrops did!!! and I thank her. I talked to hubby he said chat away about the book on the forum. He would like you to copy your critique and send to us if you don't mind.

  I hope we get a few more people that wish to read it. Utopian found some spelling errors the EDITOR missed thank you Utop Good money for shoddy work huh.

  If anyone would like part of their critique in the book please let me know and whether to use your real name or user name.

  to those of you who have had the misfortune of receiving mr. bowen's silentlambs newsletter.

  unfortunately mr. bowen feels the need to lie to you all, and slander the name of abuse survivors he claims to protect and serve.

  a copy of his most recent attack is below my short response.

  Rev:

  First off I'm so confused by the letter it wasn't signed like all the others??? Was it from Bill and if it was HELLLLLLLLLOOOOOOO does he know how to spell L-I-B-E-L gessh lousieI did write back and received no response this is why I'm wondering if someone is F******g with us all ya know

  Do remember Bill is just getting a taste of the real world(no excuse I know) and arrogance and power are tools of one that has been an elder for awhile.

  I am staying of Silent lambs until this is straight I wil write Bill and hope I get a friggin answer.

  If not Rev stiff upper lip matey if B po's me a staunch supporter of him you have it made with everyone else LOL

  I hate arguing and bickering I mean didn't we get enough abuse as DUB's? To Bill if you come here Shame on YOU for your comment and airing to all what you have no clue about.

  i find it incredibly difficult to read between the lines in current threads on bb closing the sl forums and deleting posts etc, it would be helpful to know what is really going on?

  its important.

  i havent been keeping up with the sl forum.

  JW's a FRUSTRATED people?

  2. beliefs

  we know that the wt portrays the jw's as a "happy" people.

  the wt would have the world believe that the wt organization as a whole is a "happy" organization.

  yet somehow they still believe that jw's are a "happy" people.

  this afternoon i was sitting in my kitchen watching my three year old son playing.

  he was humming to himself while playing w/trucks.

  i watched his little hands as they moved the toys around, i listened to his sweet little voice.

  My son is leaving in June to join the Marine's (see thread about the military) so I am having countless flashbacks of him when he was a little fart. My daughter is now a Mom and just turned 20 and I can't believe how wonderful it is to see her with her daughter, we ALWAYS butted heads she was way too bright I always joked that if I had it to do over I would pray not for my kids to be healthy and intelligent but healthy and kinda dumb!(this is just a joke) She didn't hardly speak to me for two years because I was the MOM but once she became pregnant I was omnipotent,omnicient and all that!!!She calls me all the time (she lives 2 miles away) and puts baby Makayla on the phone to "talk" to me. Mak is now 6 months I am SOOOOO damn happy that baby won't be subjected to the crap my daughter was. The endless service and meeting and assemblies!!! So to all that don't have kids, they ARE THE BEST THING IN LIFE (well next to sex) <JUSSSSSSSST Jokin> and for those that have little one's enjoy EVERY moment they grow up too DAMN fast

  ok so i'm on the phone talking to my friend, when i hear a knock so light i wasn't even sure if it was a knock.... (the doorbell, lighted, works just fine).. i open the door.

  two attractive young ladies in their early 20s are standing there, don't even make eye contact.

  one reaches into her bookbag and pulls out the lasts watchtower and asnake magazines and proceeds to ramble incoherently for the next 30 seconds.
