  FALSE ACCUSATIONS/INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY: DO YOU CARE????

  by berylblue in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i like to post this from time to time, on various boards -----no, it never goes over well, because people infer things which i am not attempting to convey.

  i am merely pointing out that sometimes, when we are soooooooooo damned certain about the guilt of a certain person or persons.... we are wrong.

  no, th case in the hyperlink below does not, on the surface, resemble the mormon case.

  There's been some CHANGES made - and, apparently, not everyone is pleased

  seems likes i'm annoying others and hurting feelings on quite a few occassions when i post here.. oh, well.

  when i first came here, i was a people-pleasing wimp.

  i express my real opinions now and i'll be damned if i ever go back to silencing myself just to fit in.

  Most LUDICROUS thing you've ever heard at the KINGDOM HALL

  by berylblue in

  i certainly have heard a lot of idiotic stuff during my tenure as a witness - but this one is priceless:.

  a neophyte was complaining about the heat, humidity, physical effort, etc., involved in attending the district convention at veteran's stadium in philadelphia - and she was right.

  it was miserable.

  Are there any gods who actually don't HATE WOMEN

  by berylblue in

  and base their laws on the premise that we're inherently stupid, weak and evil?.

  look at islam, for starters.

  (i can't believe a woman would willingly join this sorry excuse for misogynistic laws.

  2. beliefs

  in my maidenform bra.. .

  don't know what made me remember that old ad.. .

  if you're old enough to remember those stupid maidenform advertisements, you're old enough to remember some really bad ads.....sheesh, and the men's rights activists complain about how men are portrayed as dummies in commercials?

  Just curious - to what political organizations, if any, do you belong?

  by berylblue in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  since, as witnesses, we were not permitted to be a part of the world, i am curious as to which organizations some of you may be members.

  might be fun to see in which directions we all went.

  also which charities we support.. mine will surprise you - i'm a member of the national coalition of free men, fathers4justiceus and the aclu.

  Under the table job?

  by berylblue in

  1. social
  2. current

  i really don't approve of working under the table, but i understand that, in some circumstances, it is necessary in order to avoid poverty.

  my step son, who receives state insurance (long, long story) and has crohn's and who has just come to live with us, desperately wants a job in addition to going to school.

  if he earns over $260 or some such, he will lose the insurance.
