take care because satan is using every means to leave jehovahs organisation! (QUOTE FROM JW WEBSITE PROVIDED BY HOME AND DRY)
This confirms my long-held belief that Satan is a part of the organization that purports to be "Jehovah's organization." It also confirms that they suck so bad that even Satan wants out!

Really, does it get any more pathetic than this?
Skeptic, I'm not sure what motivated you to divulge the details of your relationship with XW, which, in my opinion, is pathetic and unworthy of the attention you've sought by posting it here. If your rationale is to seek out female posters who might feel sorry for you, that is even more pathetic than the relationship you described.

Monster: Thanks for your response and your statements regarding generalizations about JWs. The point I was trying to make is that like JWs, attorneys are just people and it is unfair to negatively stereotype or make sweeping generalizations about any group of people based solely on the misconduct of a few.
Having said that, congratulations on your volunteer efforts. It is the efforts of volunteers like yourself that really make a difference in the lives of others!

Monster,
Many lawyers volunteer some of their time for various charitable causes as well, including free legal representation for the indigent. But like you, the vast majority do not volunteer all of their time; they need to make a living. You've spewed venom regarding lawyers working solely for the money yet you've revealed that you own your own business. Until you start devoting 100% of your business proceeds to charitable causes you have no basis for condemning others for expecting compensation for their work.
As for your experiences regarding the integrity of lawyers, attorneys are like anyone else. Birds of a feather . . .

Francois and others here have made a generalization about the honesty of lawyers and JWs, yet there is no empirical basis for their claims. Is their hatred for lawyers attributable to incidents in their own lives where they've failed to exercise proper judgment and gotten burnt as a result?
Francois, it's obvious you have a lot of pain likely resulting from your exposure to the Witnesses. However, that doesn't excuse the unprovoked, hostile personal attack you made against Downunder. We've all experienced a lot of hell as a result of our past and present JW associations - some worse than others. That shouldn't influence the manner in which you treat others.
Monster, you seem upset that lawyers are "in it for the money." I wonder what you work for? Do you volunteer all of your time, or do you expect to be paid for working? If you aren't a full-time volunteer, then isn't it a bit hypocritical for you to gripe that lawyers get paid for their work?

If someone can show me how to embed an mp3 file here, I can provide an audio excerpt from a Simpson's episode that is very relevant and on point for this board. Simon - don't worry, it falls within the "fair use" exception to the U.S. copyright laws.
