to Utopian Reformist re: the Black Panther Party
by reagan_oconnor in<i posted this on the "two down and counting" thread, but figured it would be seen here.. for those of you who did not see the thread, utopian reformist said:.
earlier reagan o'connor stated that internal and external terrorist groups should be examined equally and treated in the same manner.. while i agree with the statement, i disagree with the sampling of internal terrorist she included in her statement.. the kkk and aryan nation can and should be considered terrorists.
burning crosses, public lynchings and hate mobs should be obvious to all.

(US) Gary Condit is giving thanks...
by reagan_oconnor in...that he's finally out of the limelight.. before it struck home how actually horrific this whole thing was, i cracked a joke about how much gary condit paid to have those two planes rammed into the wtc, just to get himself out of the top news story spot.... i apologized to the person i made the comment to, and still feel guilty.
reagan.

Missed you guys, had "The Talk" with ...
by reagan_oconnor init's been about a month since i posted... sorry to stay away so long.. many of you are aware that my parents stopped speaking to me last year, and the only time i've seen them in a year is when my dad had a heart attack.
i got an e-mail from my mom that asked how i "felt about their religion" since i'm celebrating holidays.. i sat down with mom on saturday and told her that regardless of our differences in beliefs, that we're still family, and that will never change.
i told her that i understand that she's conflicted because of her beliefs, and that it's been difficult for her.

Christmas Star = Satan?!
by reagan_oconnor ini was talking with my husband the other day about the jw's belief that the "christmas star" that guided the magi to christ was the doings of satan.
he didn't believe me; this is what i found in the "my book of bible stories" (copied verbatim from cd-rom).
who do you think made that new star to shine?

Question re: children/adults <totally off to...
by reagan_oconnor inthis is completely unrelated to jw, but i would like to garner some opinions on this.... i was raised to call adults in the congregation "brother" and "sister.
" non-jw adults were mr. or mrs. unless they advised me to call them by their first names.. we have a neighbor who allows her 3 and 4 year old sons to call my husband and i by our first names.
my husband corrected one of the boys in front of his father, telling him, "please call me mr.
