  the remarkable sister pettifog.

  this morning i arrived on my bicycle at the local starbucks early, before the intensity of the texas sun boiled to full blaze rendering me a soggy, wrung out mess.. i took up my perch on the outdoor patio in the shade, eager to work on my book of short stories.

  this will be my 3rd book and i’ve been enjoying the process daily.. .

  When Conventions were in Perth, Scotland (absolutely freezing btw) the media would fall over themselves to paint the witnesses in good light.

  Suppose it brought some money into an otherwise shitty, no mark of a town.

  The manager of the local Tesco ALWAYS got a mention about how pleased he was to receive the witnesses into his store. They don't half talk themselves up at the end of the conventions.

  My wife blew my mind, Seth Andrews, and more....

  by pronomono in

  so i recently had the opportunity to hear seth andrews speak in person at a local unitarian universalist church.

  for those of you who know my past, i've had a bit of a difficult time dealing with the emotional aspects of a fade with a wife that says she believes but doesn't put forth the works that demonstrate that faith.

  we've kind of been in a rocky point in our relationship because we've both been afraid to test the waters on where each of us stand.

  My thoughts on the shunning part at the convention

  by stuckinamovement in

  the wts has gone off the rails and is "unrepentantly" hateful.

  they are blatantly requiring mothers and fathers to disown/hate their own children that they have loved and cared for since birth simply because they don't comply with the orgs demands.

  how is this love?

  Completely vile convention programme.

  How anyone can sit through that shit and believe that it's all so right astonishes me. Families suffering everywhere, needlessly.

  2. friends

  i was speaking to my mom the other day.

  she stays in the group to retain a relationship with the rest of our in family.

  she told me that she heard from one of my brothers that the reason lett makes all those weird facial gestures has something to do with a stroke or aneurysm when he was a younger man.

  Exactly the reason why I banned my children from this cult.

  To have them raised with such beliefs would be absolutely against everything I stand for.

  Vile cult.

  i just watched a youtube discussion between marc & cora and unwitness.

  it was regarding their unhappiness over a few prominent individuals in the ex jw community, one individual in particular.

  this individual who on the one hand produces excellent videos highlighting wt issues, yet has been known to peeve a lot of ex jw activists off.

  I'm not keen on Mark and Cora. They come across as a pair of fundamentalist psychopaths in most of their clips.

  I'm positive that there are egos involved here, just like anywhere in life.

  Cedars videos are extremely good and effective at turning people's heads from within the organisation. They speak to me as an atheist of course, which is perhaps why I am more drawn to him.
