by dmouse inhttp://www.sky.com/skynews/home
myra hindley, who helped in the torture and killing of five children in the 1960's, died today.. good riddance.. there had been attempts to have her released, because she was no longer a threat to the public!.

Children in need
by dmouse in.
while the jehovah's witnesses avoid giving to charity - after all why bother?, they are going to die at armageddon soon anyway, the rest of the world do their best to help those in dire need.. every year the bbc 'children in need' appeal raises millions to help disadvantaged children everywhere.. uk posters will know what i'm talkng about.. send some money to pudsey!.

Update on my wife and son.
by dmouse inthis is an update on my earlier post about the treatment my son is getting from the elders, posted here:.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=37408&site=3.
well, benjamin informs me that today his mum drove him to the sunday meeting and kept him in the car until the meeting started, and then took him straight out after it had finished, so that the elders couldn't talk to him.. apparently an elder saw my wife in the street and approached her, but she told him to get stuffed (politely) but he informed her of what they intend to do.. it will be officially announced from the platform that benjamin no longer qualifies as an unbaptised publisher.. where do these bastards learn to be such bullies of children?

British Branch to answer to Government!!!!
by dmouse inimmediately after the panorama episode which dealt with the jehovahs witness problem with paedophiles i contacted my local mp, patricia hewitt, to voice my concerns.
it appears that she forwarded my concerns to the parliamentary under secretary of state, hilary ben mp.
this is a copy of the letter she received back, which came in the post this morning.

Will my JW wife and son get into trouble for this?
by dmouse insome of you may remember my son's struggle with his beliefs about a year ago.
benjamin was brought up as a jw and was heavily involved, used extensively on the platform as a good jw role model.
however, about a year ago (when he was 13) he started to have doubts and went through a cycle of depression, even contemplating suicide.
