today i read at the xjw.com forum that ros died.. since the start of my internet connexion in 1997 i remember the topics of ros.. ros, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
you helped me getting ttatt.
i pray for you and your relatives.. gorbatchov.
This post has sucked the breath out of my lungs and am sitting here mouth agape in shock.
Ros has been pillar in the ex-JW community for at least 15 years. Well researched posts, defending those not capable of defending themselves and a person with a huge heart
I will do a quiet tribute tomorrow for the life of such a tremendous soul. She did it right. RIP Ros. (tear running down my cheek)
lol, just received this email:.
idiots!
you of weak minds that have chosen to leave the truth!
How about this response?

Hey Cog. You are one of the most awesome peeps I have met off this discussion board. And I say that without any views of 'the girls'!! LOL
Strange we are both back on JWD tonight.
Big hugs
september 11, 2013 will fall on a wednesday this year.
as you know, the peace-loving people of islam are seldom more peace-loving than they are on wednesdays.. what are your predictions, speculations and expectations for that day?
should we share our thoughts with president clueless or let him golf without tedious interuptions?.
Considering I am flying to NYC that day, hopefully nothing will happen.
danger witness robinson!
danger!!!
today i added a new article to my blog highlighting the danger of power consolidation along with an overt attempt to ready millions for obeying irrational direction from this power.
Great article Marvin.. as usual.
Old school JW's including older members of the GB (Jaracz included) felt that when 'the time comes', the direction will be that similar to the destruction of Jerusalem, "Get out of the City"
This would come across as irrational as that is where many have homes, work grocery stores, family members. Old timer and respected Bethelite Jack Nathan, used to go on for hours about this and on several occasions told me that is the best advice when the great ribulation comes, when government turns on religion, etc. "Get out of the Cities just like Lot and his family."
I have a feeling that is likely what the authors in Writing had in mind but didn't want to come out with that advice..yet.
My two cents
please view the details on our meetup page:.
http://www.meetup.com/oexjws/events/130630272/.
or pm me.. the southern ontario area has a bunch of awesome exjw's that our group has been knitting together since early in the year, come join us for dinner!.
I was one of the ringleaders over the years along with Rayzorblade, PeterStride, BumbleBee. At the last big one we even imported a few 'Merican xjw's to join the party. It was a good time. We held it at the Mill Street Brewe Pub downttown Toronto. Had a halloween meet up at a restaurant near the airport another time and a mini meet up in Niagara Falls.
The best part is I remember all of them as friends with their real names. I don't necessarily remember all the screen names.
I am hoping to make it to this one and meet JWN-the Next Generation.
good for them!http://www.interfax-religion.com/?act=news&div=9036user access to jehovah's witnesses website restricted in transbaikalia .

this highly explosive six screens of the watchtower april 9-2011 conference call is now up loaded and ready to be heard.
concerned people from all over the world were calling in to get the latest news on what is going on in the world of the watchtower.. our first guest was barbara anderson and she brought us up to speed on the criminal complaint the watchtower organization is facing in australia.
barbara as always wants the facts straight and delivers her information in a very professional,competent manner.. steve guziec a former j.w.
For two old farts like Farkel and I (and Outlaw, well he is just a fart not so sure about the old part) to come out and so publicly denounce this whole scheme should be rather telling.
No I am not comparing myself to Farkel as that would be demeaning to his past efforts, experiences and research. I am best compared as as a flimsy supportive brace that once tried to focus or bridle the passion of Farkel's ex-JWism. I gave up on that effort LOL I still can't believe I tried to moderate Farkel, Jan, Kent, Norm, AlanF et al back in the day. I guess I am past my sado masochistic tendancies :)
Rick has allowed his desire for presence and making a difference to cloud his judgement. That is human. Intentional deciet of others is more evil imo. Hopefully Rick will figure this out.
Farkel - What is it with ex-JW's named Rick anyway?!?!?!
Uzzah

Worry not about the Rick's of this world but rather that you lived up to your conscience and did what you felt was right. The rick's are but mere blips on the greter scheme of things and not worth your fears, dread of conscience or concern
I am not one for prestige on these forums but believe me when I say your good intentions are not lost on the good hearted but rather scorned by those intent on deceit or building a 'reputation'
Trust in your good intentions and keep doing as you see fit.
You defended Six Screens and Johnny as you were able and saw fit to do. I am glad you eventually saw through the fiction but am sorry if you are 'picked on' for doing so.
Stay strong in your beliefs
