There is a rat on this forum

i think someone on this forum is a rat....or troll as i think they are called.. i am sitting at home last night watching fear factor, and there was a knock at the door.. i opened it to find two elders from my old hall.

they did not seem very sincere when they apologized for disturbing me without notice.. they said the purpose of there visit was to just to check up on me, find out if my circumstances or opinions had changed.

we ended up in a huge conversation about my "inactivity", they wanted to know if there was anything keeping or holding me back from the truth, and wanted to know if there was anything i needed to get of my chest, cause guilt has away of keeping people back.

i wanted to thank you for your kind comments to my "crucifixion" thread.

that whole time of my life was a tremendous kick in the teeth from the elders and the wts.

i wanted thru words to mock and lambast the whole organization for there foul treatment of suicide, there heartless actions and there crucifixion of those just like the thousands that are members here.

29 have been accused of spousal abuse.

i remember baking in the hot sun, with the outdoor district conventions.

the only thing i liked about them was lunch time.

back in the day, then i could grab the little coupons, ten to a page, each worth 10 cents.

The single question of simplicity

having made the somewhat selfish decision to minimize my wts research, it has been necessary for me to attempt several generalizations and summaries for the sake of personal closure.

this investigative process consumed approximately two of my years and i'm approaching my oh-so-sought-after final statement, for my own finality and for anyone who may also have interest.

because i consider many of you my friends i felt it appropriate to ask your opinion and comment.

vancouver bc - backround info
by jesusstolemyhotrod in

2. friends
i am hoping someone out there maybe from the vancouver area and help me out......i am looking for some background info.

during the late 70's and 80's, i was still quite young and all the bad or nasty stuff was hidden from young ears.

i do remember though catching wind of certain scandals and mass disfellowshippings etc.....but the details were hidden from children and quietly whispered about by the adults.

although i am out, my parents are still involved with the jw's.

after the fiasco they went thru with me and my brother.

they have remained "faithful", but at the same time deal with there own feelings of doubt and disgruntlement.
