I miss music
by White Dove inhas anyone else had music pretty much taken from them?
i'm doing the best i can with my djembe and old familiar songs that i can guess from hearing them, but i really miss the piano and listening to pretty music.
this is kind of a depressing spin-off from the musician thread.. got me to thinking.. oh, and i'm really angry about the false advertizing about cochlear implants.. they say they give a person music.

My heart goes out to you as well, White Dove. I'm listening to Joe Cocker's Woodstock rendition of "With a Little Help From My Friends" in your honor right now.
PS - He was as high as a kite while singing that and probably heard lots of music that wasn't there.

Sad situation unfolding on FB
by Mickey mouse inthere are reports on one of the facebook ex jw groups that a 19 year old girl who disassociated herself last week was physically attacked by her family and so she tried to commit sucide by shooting herself.
she's in a critical state in hospital.
i don't know all the details but it would appear that she had endured sexual abuse.. please keep her in your thoughts.. .

I hope that it is a hoax...the story is pretty awful if true.
Lots of folks getting whipped into a frenzy...never seen that before . At least nobody was asking for money.

He argues that a person's actions are only truly 'good' if it they are done for Allah. Therefore, anyone who does not subscribe to Islam can never be truly 'good'. If they are not 'good', then they must be 'evil', because Allah gave them life and yet they "invent their own way of worship" and will go to hell.
He then indulges in some sick fantasies of what hell will be like for these people.
It's all very nice.
Edit: LWT is right, it's just a different flavor of the same fundamentalism.

Why on earth would WT use a FEMALE lawyer to defend it in Australia case?
by hamsterbait inhow many of us here find the use of a female to conduct the defence unusual?.
the wt religion is notoriously misogynistic.
anybody with a penis is preferable to do a non menial job.. why the change here?.

I used to be in the Engineering and Design department on our RBC. My supervisor was a local elder, and his supervisor was a licensed Architect at Bethel - a woman. I got a kick out of him having to run everything past her for approval - I think it threw him for a loop.
JWs are strange in that the organization is outwardly male-dominated and misogynistic in its formal structure, but the reality at the branch offices can be very different. Of course, very few JWs even know that there are women like Barb Anderson, Jolene Chu, and other lawyers, accountants, architects, engineers, etc. being used to further the organization's interests.

Welcome, MissAloha.
You may be thinking of the answers to the "Oral Review" that is conducted during the Theocratic Ministry School every few months. An answer sheet is provided for the elder conducting the review, and he will read out each answer verbatim after people have had a chance to comment.

Here is the funeral talk outline. VERY discraceful.
by stillstuckcruz inthis is truly terrible.
i just love the statement "instead of eulogizing the deceased, use the material in this outline to give a fine witness concerning the truth.
" in other words, utterly disregard the deceased.

These funeral discources are the last chance that the WT will get to use that individual to recruit.
So true, MrFreeze...except when it's a child dying due to his/her parents' refusal of blood. Then the exploitation may continue.
What a shitty religion.

Wonderful news about Ali....and something to warm your heart
by coffee_black inas i have posted, my daughter ali has been in the cardiac intensive care unit since thursday.
her bp, heartrate and blood sugar went sky high, due to horrible coughing spells from a chest cold that left her gasping for air.. she has congestive heart failure, and has been treated for almost a year now.
she has improved over that year, but this was a real setback.. ali called me today with amazing news.

Well, it's official, I am a rabid, mentally diseased Apostate!
by serenitynow! inso an apostabuddy wanted to stage a silent protest at the assembly hall where she was baptized.
we went today.
the plan was to wear these apostate t-shirts that had stuff printed on them about thinking for yourself, and a bunch of websites.

All those poor defenseless JWs there had their worst fears realized: hateful, mentally diseased apostates are real, and they have excellent taste in footwear!
