This is better than most soaps I've watched.
I agree with you wholeheartedly Wednesday!
surely these two events/situations/happenings mean little, nothing even, to those in the real world.. but since we're witnesses( some participatory) to them, they've affected us.. alot "went down" in a relatively short period of time.. do you feel the effects have been mostly positive, an opportunity to grow perhaps?.
or do you feel adversely affected?.
what about any lasting effects( positive or negative) you think they may have on the way ex-jws interact as a community?.

greets all.
well yesterday i went to his website,,and posted something for his guestbook.
just wondering if he would update me.
Isn't it possible that Trevor can log-in to his website from anywhere on the internet?
How does Trevor's virtual presence on his website prove that he is at home?
That's the same thing I was thinking! He could log from practically anywhere with internet access.
the city of philadelphia has decided to punish the boy scouts of america because it will not allow homosexuals to serve as scout leaders.
city officials said they will charge the cradle of liberty scouts council $200,000 a year to use the city-owned headquarters.
the council was paying $1 per year (since 1928).
Frequent Fader Miles- Homosexuality and Pedophilia are two separate things! I'm a heterosexual woman; just because I find men attractive doesn't mean I'd ever feel attraction for a child!
They certainly are separate things. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that a homosexual man would be a pedophile as well, but there's just a chance it could happen. You never know what ideas would pop into the human mind if the circumstances permit.

OK, so now if he is monitoring this site he knows that you are "Diane"
Oooops! I guess "Diane" will be disfellowhsipped now .... oh dear!
anyone know if this has been mentioned in the congregations ?.
maybe it is so we can donate money for the literature that we download ?

Hypocrites is an understatement! This is one of the directives that makes the Pharisees look angelic.

I suppose they view the rule more as discriminatory than protective, but where's the wisdom in giving a homosexual man free access to young boys?
if you see that something a poster states is actually inconsistent or inaccurate, will radar go off in your head to call the person on it?
i think we should be more aware, not paranoid or judgmental, but more alert to phony posters or those that try to spread inaccurate information.
Did you find the wedding picture of David Hasselhoff and Paris Hilton (standing in for Linda and Trevor) entertaining? I certainly did!
everyone's so busy posting on that "funeral arrangements for linda" thread that they've forgotten about the others.
lol that post has been viewed over 20,000 times!

trev received this email earlier from someone who is studying with the jws, and he has allowed me to post it.
dear trevor.
however i have a legal background and am consequently.
The principle of elders taking to task members of
the congregation who offend Christian values is, to
me, no more than I would expect. And no more than was
practiced in the first century. I see nothing
draconian or sinister here in principle
It is these very elders who make it quite difficult for a member to leave of his own free will. All family and social ties within the congregation must be cut. Despite the fact that God himself endowed mankind with free will, there's no easy way for a JW to leave even though no "Christian values" were offended. Jesus pontificated the importance of love in Christianity, going as far as to encourage love for one's enemies. However, one who leaves is treated as an outcast ... even worse than an enemy! How draconian is that?
