Extremely good to have made your acquaintance, GG. WELCOME!
Stick around, read a lot and post more whenever you're ready (if you think your story is long you should read some of the others here, including mine).
Best wishes for a long and happy stay,
Ian
would someone seriously consider arranging for an apostafest up in scotland next year?
i know i'm asking this early but i feel it would be good to put the feelers out now.. obviously, it would have to be a location easy to get to - so that means stornoway is out!
sorry, ross & xena.
Zico,
I wanna come! I've never been to one before.
You'll love it! The "apostates" are great people.
Claire and I will be staying over to make a weekend of it. I got good news from the hospital today so it looks very much on for us!

Scottie,
Hope to be there, but might be in Toronto.
How can you possibly vacate the country when the next 'Apostameal' is in your neck of the woods? Ian
a very good friend of mine is in charge of plant maintenance at a local factory.
there are 300 people working in this factory and two of them are muslims.
the muslims have requested that they require special toilets just for themselves.
Gilberto:
But we do have a little one to think of
Bring him/her!

i got the idea for this thread unashamedly from snowbird: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/148005/1.ashx.
the women here are terrific.
obviously i'm going to miss someone out but it's not deliberate:.
No mention of his own daughter. How special do I feel.....
You're a woman, you post here so you are awesome! Love, Dad xxxxxxxxxxxx
i liked this post, it's thoughtful and say s exactly what it should.
i agree, too.
i hate the fact that in some places local to me, we are only allowed white lights around trees, very benign things that don't point obviously to christmas.
But the thing is, the Muslims aren't bothered,
EXACTLY! It's the idiots in the council who think they will be.

Ian, I have never met you, but I would love to do so.
Maybe one day I will attend an apostofest.
How about Edinburgh next April?

Sorry Ian, looks like I'd picked up the broad brush everyone else is using lol.
I find the tone of a number of comments on this thread to be repellant.
It's OK. You have good reason to be passionate about your response. Being a gay man you will be familiar with discrimination, ignorance and arrogance. Ian

Not all responses, I hope!

standing in the way of stem cell research.
by alan i. leshner and james a. thomsonmonday, december 3, 2007; page a17 .
a new way to trick skin cells into acting like embryos changes both everything and nothing at all.
Hi Never,
I'm afraid it's a sad indictment on the American government and its leanings towards Christian fundamentalism in stopping beneficial stem cell research.
You know of my own recovery from a life-threatening illness through having an allogeneic stem cell transplant (i.e. from receiving a donor's cells). While my own medication didn't involve embryonic stems cells it is well known by doctors and other scientists that such cells could help in potential cures for many presently incurable diseases. Frankly, until such ones are in a similar pitiable condition to those who are suffering they will have no idea as to the consequences of their legislation - and then it will be too late for them and too late for millions more Americans.
