End of School for Now ( I should be excited.........but)
by out4good3 init's been a hard fought couple of years, but, finally, with great trepidation, i find myself graduating next weekend with the college degree i should've graduated with 25 years ago.
oh, i've got both two year college degrees under my belt, but this time it is the big kahuna, a bachelors degree.
summa cum laude with a near perfect gpa to boot.. i think back on the time when i first proposed going back to school with my wife......how she and the elders who visited me poo-pooed education and exclaimed that it would be a big waste of time.

America's Most Wanted profiles JW Elder Child Molester
by out4good3 inlast night on amw, they profiled the jw elder child molester.
they detailed how he'd planned to be on the run by stashing money all around his house, how he quickly got a divorce when he was being investigated, sold off his assets in a race car business and disappeared.
one lady interviewed incognito, told of how he was a trusted member in the congregation with privileges.. did anyone else see this segment?

For your singing pleasure.
by out4good3 into the tune of "if you're happy and you know it".
if you cannot find osama, bomb iraq.. if the markets are a drama, bomb iraq.. if the terrorists are frisky,.

Female Subjugation
by out4good3 ini'm aware of many couples where the man, usually the breadwinner, can no longer tolerate following the wt party line anymore.
i myself am the only breadwinner in my family and although my wife works hard to appear as the staunch jw, i never berate or hold it against her in any way as do most other men i know in similar situations.
she knows how i feel about the wt so she almost never asks my opinion on soceity related matters.. but, what of the couples where it is the woman whose fallen away but finds herself totally dependent upon her staunch jw husband for support?.

Old WT Graphic
by out4good3 insomeone had a graphic picture which represented the tru nature of being a jw to a tee.
it was a picture of what looked like a naked woman in white silhouette with a closed cage around her head and possibly her hands bound.
i vaguely remember something in the picture that pictured the wt having the key to the cage.

WT "Chains of Command"
by out4good3 inhow many people here are avid star trek fans?.
i've just finished watching parts i and ii of the episode "chains of command" and a couple of sequences in the episode reminded me of how the wt controls people.
in the episode capt picard is tortured and forced to believe he's seeing 5 lights when in fact there is only four.. what brought this to mind is the irrational statements i've heard from people in the "trooth", statements whereby they've suspended all common sense and choose only to believe anything the wt organization tells them.
