    Well put.

    Wonderful post SIAM,

    I find it especially telling that none of the JWs in your hotel felt inclined at all to "share" their marvelous religion with you.

    Jws have become very insular Now and yes they seem to not want to share anything unless they have to at or during thier special time for service. It's weird how many times you hear stuff like don't record this meeting or share your notes etc. Crazy

    Your posting has touched me deeply and my heart goes out to you and your wife.

    I dearly hope we will live to see those seven psychopaths being brought to justice.

    At some stage there must be a point when they cross the final line and cause a clear and public outcry reaching the ears of people influential enough to put an end to this and get those lunatics locked up!

    Completely vile convention programme.

    How anyone can sit through that shit and believe that it's all so right astonishes me. Families suffering everywhere, needlessly.

    People who practice religiously based shunning should be outed and then harrassed at their job or place of business until they are brought to tears.

    I will be going to the convention end of July. I don't know how I will get through it, but I do know I will need alcohol to recover afterwords. I will probably stay at the hotel one day with sever stomach issues, aka pool day.

    Reminds me of when first I realized that if the WTS kept up its staunch anti-education rhetoric, before too long, they'd be stuck with a "worldwide body" of morons.

    Fill a water bottle with vodka for during the convention. Nobody will be the wiser.

    Didn't you know?

    They'd be "suffering for righteousness' sake".
