Looks like SATAN is persecuting me!!!
by amama2six ini just got off the phone with my stepmother (who is in the hospital with a shattered femur and wrist from a moped accident).
i had previously thought that her and my father were inactive, but now it appears they may be on their way back in to the borg.
we were talking about a visit she'd had with my daughter and how my daughter's father was calling constantly to "check up" on what was going on (nice little rant about what a jerk he is) when i hear her say "yeah, it was really irritating for him to be calling so much, we were getting calls from the brothers and didn't want him interrupting us!

JW`s and the "NAME"Jehovah
by smiddy inwhen the "aid to bible understanding"first came out their was a lot written as to why jw`s settled on the name jehovah.i found it curious,they leant heavily on the acceptance of biblical scholars common usage of the name".it was the most widely accepted form in common use by christendom".on the one hand they claim christendom is the anti-christ,the whole world outside jw`s is under the control of satan the devil,and yet they quote these sources to back up their use of jehovah in spite of the fact,the same "aid" book admitted that yaweh was more nearer the correct pronunciation.at the time i thought that was curious.also that first printing of the "aid" book had no reference to "elders"and yet it was only a few months later that the elder arrangement came into force.divine inspiration ?
i dont think so!

Nun Pleads No Contest in Sex Abuse
by RR innun pleads no contest in sex abuse by catrin einhornpublished: november 13, 2007a roman catholic nun pleaded no contest yesterday to two counts of indecent behavior with a child in connection with accusations from the 1960s when she was a principal and teacher at a catholic school in milwaukee.. the nun, norma giannini, 79, faces up to 20 years in prison for what prosecutors say was sexual abuse of two male students.
although dozens of nuns have been accused of sexual abuse, often in civil lawsuits, sister giannini is one of the first to face criminal charges, said anne barrett doyle, co-director of bishopaccountability.org, a group that compiles reports about abuse in the roman catholic church.
mary pat fox, president of voice of the faithful, a lay group formed in response to the catholic sexual abuse scandal, said she hoped the case would encourage more victims of nuns to come forward.

by dawg inhomecoming has come and gone, old friends have either came and left for home, or are still downtown trying to get some, but they have left happy memories for us to share in the future, just like so many times before... .
i remember when i left the wt religion, i was scared shit less, i met many of these folks then and they really helped me alone... .
to those of you that have left this religion and are scared... be brave.. it will get better, and you'll meet new people and they will love for who you are... they will respect what you think.. they won't require you to goose step in line with their beliefs... .
