  Hi Yadira,
  I'm happy to read your post and to know that you are content with the faith of your choice.
  My first husband was an alcoholic and I know the misery that goes along with that desease. We are divorced now and I have been married to my second husband for 16 years. He knows of my JW background and could care less. I don't have to worry about him ever wanting to take up that crazy religion because he tells me he could never give up birthday cakes and Christmas and all the pirks that go along with those celebrations.
  I'm so glad that Blue saw this religious cult for what it is and left. You must feel a burden has been lifted off your heart. I'm lucky, my children want nothing to do with it because they have been witness to what it has done to my side of their family. My wish for you is that your other daughter will come to her sences and leave someday. Until then you have Blue for comfort.

  I guess it's, "One down and one to go"

  today i took a few minutes to do a extensive search of the web for ideas of how people have "enjoyed" playing with jehovah's witnesses and other religious solicitors when they come to their door.

  i found a few sites that were quite funny.

  links and ideas follow.... 1. how to dodge religious solicitors, from the door, a christian magazine.

  satan's time lessens

  the wts is the closest thing to the restoration of true worship that exists on the face of the earth today, all it needs now is to be perfected.

  and it certainly has its enemies.

  Yadirf,
  This is not a good day for your crap.
  Maybe some other time would be more appropriate

  Dearest Sharon,

  My most heartfelt sympathy goes out to you.

  I care about you and so wish there were some way I could make this burden just a little lighter.
  As you search for some way to understand what happened, remember, there are no answers for some questions.
  My thoughts are with you,

  it is hard for me to transcibe certain feelings into written words especially since i'm not what you would consider to be a real emotional person.

  i have also mastered the art of rarely showing any outward emotional expression.

  i will try and do my best to give you some of the feelings i experienced today through my eyes, so please bare with me.. i drove the hour to mcminnville which is a small town about forty miles south of portland.

  the following is the contents of a hand-written letter i just received from my (21 year old) sister, who is getting married may 18. for some reason, i thought that she would let love and compassion be stronger than wt programming.

  but i was wrong.

  yeah, it sucks.. *** my question for the board ***.

  Quotes,

  This is a tough one.
  I know you love your sister and I guess she loves you too.

  Do what your heart tells you to do, and that may not be easy. Think about how you may feel in the future about your actions on that day. Maybe that will help you.

  Its up to you!

  Sunny

  PS YoYo, why do you have to be such a numb nuts? All the words you have written to Quotes could have been said in a much kinder way.
  Then you wonder why you get slammed back by the posters here.

  YYM..Quote...."she knows what the Bible says"...No, she knows what the WTS teaches that the Bible says. Its their interpretation (their sad, sick, interpretation).

  this last week, i did a short internship in a school system.

  we had to do one home visit because the little girl we were going to see has been ill and has not been able to attend her early child program.

  she is 3 and has a disease where half of her brain did not form and she does not have a pitutary gland.

  WW,

  Regardless what is being said to you by SG & AM, you and I know the facts here.

  Fact 1,

  JW kids are beat every "meeting" night and we know why!

  Fact 2

  You and I have both been witness (pardon the pun)to it!

  Fact 3

  JWs are taught that "to spare the rod" is to spoil the child!

  I've been out of the borg for a long time but I remember well many a child coming back in from outside with big tears in their eyes and everyone was well aware of what they had been to. And yes some of them were just past the infant stage. Of course many in the audience were nodding their approval...that in itself makes me sick!

  Jumping to conclusions?

  I don't think so!

  "let's accept that the organization is imperfect because it is made up of imperfect humans.".

  but let's analyse why that statement is made.

  i have heard it used when i made points like: "how can it the organization be spirit directed if it makes mistakes and chanages its doctrines?
