3. I do NOT want to be known, I'm not giving out my name, etc.
That's OK; I'll do it.
You must be Estephan the Great (gasbag) . Off your meds again, I see. And you were doing so well, too.

Just write something completely goofy!
by awildflower inso this is inspired by my favorite poet edgar allen john doe!
sometimes we just need to say something completely goofy to relieve tension and have fun.
the pineapple king, with a feather in his hat and a spring in his step, finally helped the chicken cross the road!.

Not mine but,
The centipede was happy, quite
Until a frog in fun,
Asked, "Pray, which leg goes after which?"
This worked his mind to such a pitch
He lay distracted in a ditch
Considering how to run.

They're not working for Jehovah; they're working for the WTS.
And because their cult shelters child abusers and murders children through its blood ban, pity is the last thing I feel about them.

Funerals and Disfellowshipped Individuals
by lepermessiah innot to "hijack" dogpatch's recent thread, but the experience he relayed in the above topic struck a nerve and i was curious for more input.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/jw/friends/188715/1/my-aunts-funeral-at-the-kingdom-hall.
if there is ever a time when a shred of human dignity and compassion is deserved, it is at a funeral.. i am appalled by the way disfellowshipped individuals are treated, but especially at witness funerals.. the flesh and blood relatives have the right to be there if they choose.
if you are a witness and you are offended by a disfellowshipped person attending, dont let the door hit you in the @$$ on the way out.

Thanks all for your support and sympathy.
Tirebiter: If your Mom wants you to be there, needs you to be there, then you should be there with her.
If I could bring myself to do it, I would. But my mother cut me off more than four months ago, telling me she didn't want to see me, which also forced the situation that my father couldn't see me either. He never dared to contradict her decisions, however unfair they were. So, because of my mother, I lost the last four months of my father's life. I'm finding it very hard to forgive her for that.
I also had made a pledge to myself a long time ago that I would never again set foot in a KH. The thought of going there to be shunned by dubs when I need compassion, to listen to their hour-long advertisement for the WTS as my father's life is ignored, to sit still through the hypocrisy -- all of it is more than I can take. If it means the end of my relationship with my mom, so be it. It wasn't in very good shape anyway.
I'll say goodbye to my father on Friday with my family around me. I'll tell my mother my decision about the Saturday service after the viewing. There's no one in the KH that can make anything better for me, and there's not one word they can say that would offer any comfort.
lepermessiah, sorry about hijacking your thread. I meant my comments to serve as an illustration of the points you made.

Here is southeast Pennsylvania, we're completely snowed in. There's at least 3 feet of snow down. Interstates and many other highways have been closed. No mail delivery; even if there was, our mailbox is covered. Don't know if Rendell has declared a state of emergency. It's almost as bad as the winter of '95-'96.
On the other hand, if you don't have to travel in it, the snow is incredibly beautiful.
