Never stop trying to get them out
by Free2Bme ini know there are people on this board who despite earnest efforts to reach the hearts of friends or family still in the wt org feel they have to give up or that they are flogging a dead horse.. someone very close to me is preparing herself to leave.
her heart has already left.
she finally sees the true colours of the organisation she has faithfully followed for over 30 years.. but it has not been easy or swift.

Watchtower Website to Report Child Molestations
by Ray Skyhorse inive been reading a lot on the issue of child molestion and the watchtower society.
ive read some things about the borg settling cases out-of-court but i havent heard many details.. does anyone know if the watchtower has agreed to any terms for settling a case that involve non-monetary terms?
for example, today i read in the l.a. daily journal about the catholic church settling a case that involved these terms:.

Largest Pretrial Settlement for Abuse Case
by Ray Skyhorse inthe los angeles daily journal today reports that the archdioceses of los angeles and orange counties have agreed to pay $5.2 milllion to a man who alleged that he was sexually molested by a priest.
the daily journal quotes the plaintiff's attorney who states that the settlement is the largest pretrial settlement in the country for a molestation allegations against a priest.. while these child abuse cases are unfortunately all too common for the church, i thought that the terms of the settlement are well worth noting:.
1) the priest must give up his collar.

falling in love
by kid B inok, heres my story.... i am 21 years old, male, and i am not a j.w., but i have hopelessly fallen in love with one.
unfortuntately, i do not believe what she believes in (i use the word unfortuntately because i wish i could believe, but i cant and it tears me apart).
i'm sure that this has happened a million times before, and you guys probably hear about it a lot, but i'm finding it very difficult to deal with, since she has also fallen deeply in love with me, but she feels like the only option is to let it go.
