Happy hunting Dave I hope you are able to
accomplish some real good in your endevors, pursute's,
U know what I mean.
I know you chose not to believe there is a God but
God bless you anyway. It does say in the Bible that
'that is basiclly what he's looking for, some people
with pure hearts. So you might have to say Hey there
to him someday like or not.

Well, being one of the skeptics, I am not suprised, yet, I am disappointed that this turned out the way it did.
Next, doesn't this degenerate kylishhlee claim not to be a JW?
So, we certainly cannot not blame her/his/its behavior on being a witness. Now, I did have an exchange with "her" in chat, and "she" did seem very sincere and asked valid questions. However, I know she/he/it monitors this board, and has probably learned how to "act". Unfortunately, this will probably not be the last time a depraved wacko is going to pull this kind of pathetic fraud.Who is going to pay for this? All those individuals, that might have a similiar situation, in their own lives, that come here for support. Plus, I believe that there are those that try to keep the board in constant turmoil. Instead of resources being spent on supporting and helping those that sincerely need help, we spend it chasing smoke and mirrors. Also, because the hoaxes, I have seen, perpetrated here involve child abuse, when questions are raised about the credibility of the story, we fight, sometimes viciously, amongst ourselves.
I refused, however, to become jaded. This hoax is NOT going to rob from me my compassion towards those that suffered at the hands of the WTS. I will still question when a situation doesn't "ring" right. However, I will keep on open mind so that those in the future that come here for an compassionate ear will not find the discussion board door slammed in their face.

Well,
I was afraid that something was afoul here.
All the long postings and dramatics I went through on here comes down to two points that I think people are better off following.
1) Stick to facts. Don't be ashamed to require rationale and an understanding of a situation before you scream approval or denunciation at it.
2) Freedom from the Watchtower and our past does not mean that we have to humiliate people who are still Jehovah's Witnesses or in our anger be willing to believe anything anyone anti-Watchtower says.
I've started praying again. I've decided to see what path that leads me down.
As always, peace
Joel

Teejay,
I have not known you to be anything but blunt. As I said, I don't think Alan read your post in the same light I did. I understood your comment about laughing to be just as you stated it. You and Alan have some history and from what I can see it isn't a favorable one. You and I have had a few exchanges and I think we have both came to a peaceful understanding. I have no problem with you but Alan does. That is between you and him. If you want to make a point of stating that you did not believe this whole thing from the start then your comments are noted. Nothing more and nothing less. If Alan called you a hypocrite then maybe that comment is based more on your history with him than it was on the issue in question. That is something you need to discuss with him, not me.
You have emailed me several times stating that you feel you are not very well liked on this board. I don't let things like that persuade my own thoughts and feelings. I am not on this board to get people to like me but by trying to be more understanding and giving people the benefit of the doubt I have come to be in a position that I think has made me a lot of good friends here. That is more important to me than being right all the time.
It is more important to me to get along with people and try to understand them then it is for me to try and show how smart I am and win an argument. If I am wrong I admit it. If I am right I let others come to their own conclusions and do not try to prove to anyone that my thinking or ability to be right is more important than their friendship. I have done some incredible things in my life and in years past developed a huge ego because of it. I hated that fact and I hated my ego. No one likes to hear someone say "I told you so" just to bring attention to themselves and prove that they have the ability to be right. I think it takes a stronger person to admit their mistakes than it does for someone to constantly point out their successes.
It's all about respect and the ability to deal with your own insecurities. I am a very secure person and I think my ability to get along with most people shows that. If some look at what I do and how I do it as a weakness than that is their problem, not mine. If I have to look less than perfect and make a few mistakes and admit them in order to keep a friend or gain someone's respect then so be it. My life is not all about winning but more abut understanding. Sometimes that leads me into a situation where I came to a wrong conclusion. I can deal with that and it does not change who I am or lower my level of intelligence, it only proves that I do not know everything about everything. I am fine with that.
I would not feel comfortable being in a position that I am not very well liked on this board because I tell it like it is no matter who's feelings it hurts. Being right or having a strong opinion about something is not as important to me as keeping the friendships that I have made on this board. I do try to be fair when it comes to blanket statements about the JW's but at times I make such statements. I do not try to point out all the bad in people but instead try and look for the good. It is not my job to point out everyone's mistakes. There are enough people on this board who feel that is their duty in life.
Once again, I think we understand each other and that is all I ask. If you or Alan care to talk things over it is you two that may need to talk on the phone. Once I got Alan and DannyBear to talk on the phone they became friends. It ended a little feud they had going and I hated it because I considered both of them friends. Now they are friends and to me, that's what it is all about. We are all in this leaky boat together, the less we make it rock the better off we are. Everything else is just stuff!
Take care,
Dave

Alan,
That is a much better photo choice. You must be in a good mood today.

plmkrzy,
Thanks for your comment. I have never said that I did not believe in god, my mind is still open to that possibility. I have said that I do not believe in the bible or the god of the bible. There is a difference.
If someone needs to put a label on my way of thinking in regard to god stuff I guess I would be labeled as an agnostic. If it wasn't for religion I may have a stronger need to believe in god. But as it stands now, I think religion is the worst thing that ever happened to the concept of god. If I were god, Id be pretty pissed off about it.
Take care,
Dave
