This quote from StiLLinTruth in Esmeralda's MS thread:
Hey Ezmie my dear, don't worry about your illness.
It will be gone in the new world..
..providing you make it there!
:)
This attitude of the dedicated 'Witness is the reason I'll never join! This is the closest the bastards can come to expressing empathy: "Do the right thing according to our set of rules, and everything will be fine at some unspecified future date, but DON'T ask us to lift a finger to help!"
I've told the story several times on different boards, but SIT may not have heard it -
The incident which truly convinced me that the WT is not "the Troof" was when a little old lady JW, with the same warm spirit as SIT, came to our door one month after the death of our 8 yo daughter and began ridiculing our belief regarding our daughter's current state. I've never seen such a brass-plated version of the Golden Rule in my life! :(
To Esmeralda:
All the best and I hope tomorrow (it's probably a bit late in the day where you are to say "today") is one of the good days!
