    Hi Norm,

    What a great post. the "New" light on the 1914 generation was the first thing that made me realize I would never be a jw again. At the time, my mom was pushing real hard about how I was killing her grandbabies, because I refused to go to meetings. But after I found that on the internet, I have never looked back. What does she say when I tell her about the change? (she never realized there was one.) She says "It's no big deal, it didn't change that much.

    Always been too independant for my own good.

    I really do appreciate the fine work Norm, But there is one thing that bothers me the most. I noticed that after you posted your message there were some comments made that really turned me off. This is it. Everyone here makes a claim to be a Christian and I have noticed that not just here but in the past with my experience with the JW`s, they make there claim to be Christian but the foulness that comes from there mouths defiles the teachings of Jesus. We as Christians are to teach,act and love the same as Jesus did, and those of you who make the Christian claim need to go back and read your bible. Jesus loved those who were meek,poor and sinners, those were the ones that Christ taught and not the rich and head strong. Now this site is a christian site where we can all share in Gods teachings and it should be kept spiritually clean and not with your words of hate or discuss. Those of you who make statements that are derogatory or hateful, how can you possibly say you are a christian ? You cannot because Jesus would of never talked to anyone like some of those who oppose what others want to share. I believe we are all here to share in Gods love and Jesus teachings. So I say to you your rudeness towards others comments here are disgusting and I know that Jesus would feel the same.....

    Back to the top because this was an awesome post.

    ps MMetz,if you're still here, Jesus didn't politely escort the money changers from the temple. He used a bullwhip and overturned their tables in the process of kicking them out. So, if you're offended by some words, maybe you should try harder not to be thin skinned. Tima and place for everything.
