I am finding this utterly fascinating. I cannot wait until he is well rested to continue with more, as promised.

Any guesses as to whom he is speaking of?

Only a local could tell. But who cares? More serious is the coverup not the pervert's name. I would be more interested in the names of those who did the coverup.

Surely some are indeed.

Fascinating though, yes?

Sorry, dear Skals (peace to you!), but the link appears to be for a post on JWN and I'm banned there. I don't want to disrespect Simon/Angharad/any Mods there and disregard their rule... because we don't want folks to do that HERE... so I am unable to read the post at this time. For that reason, I cannot comment.

Just wanted you to know, so you didn't think I was purposefully ignoring your thread. I am not.

Peace!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar

As you'll recall, I am banned there too. It's in a public category, so I'm able to read it. Not sure why you are not.

You'd be fascinated too, I'm sure. Yet, maybe not. I do not Know.

I don't think I am UNABLE to see it, dear Skals (peace to you!); I just have no desire to visit the place where I must in ORDER to see it.

And while I understand what you're saying, dear, dear Sher'f (peace to you, both!), I don't think I can agree. To the contrary, if those dear folks don't want me ON their site, SURELY they don't want me reading what's on it! Even so, I don't particularly WANT to read what's posted on a site that I am prohibited from actively participating on. Like only being allowed to stand OUTSIDE the candy store, drooling over what's INSIDE, but not being allowed to ENTER and have a piece of candy. Why would I even take that route home? Makes no sense to ME. I would just take another route and avoid the candy store altogether... rather than put myself through the "torture." I mean, sooner or later, I MIGHT throw a rock (into the window), you know? I AM human... LOLOLOL!

Also, too much like some others folks we know. You know, those folks who no longer consider some as "members"... indeed, do all they can to prohibit others, even loved ones, from even speaking to them... but won't stop including them in their "worldwide" tally ('cause they want others to be impressed at how much they're "growing" because that is some kind of "proof" that "Jehovah" is "blessing" them). Kinda hypocritical, IMHO, and I certainly don't want to contribute to anyone else's being a hypocrite (well, except perhaps those "worldwide" folks - I have NO problem taking on my part in exposing THAT!).

So, no, I'm good! I'll take both of your's word for it, that it's a good account... but leave it to those who can access it without having to sneak and do so.

I hope that helps!

Again, peace to you, both!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar, who, in all honesty, can't quite figure out why folks who claim to have no interest in and/or a problem with what's posted HERE somehow can't bring themselves to stop looking at what's posted HERE. That makes absolutely NO sense to me, either...

But he is as much as all of us banned there. We can only read the public section. You see JWN is a faithful copy of the WT with its shunning policy. Hypocrites!

Just to be clear (peace to you, all!)... I don't have a problem with Simon/Angharad at ALL. I just want to FULLY respect their wishes, as those appear to ME. Doing that makes it easy for ME to FULLY stay away. Which is how I prefer it. I am really not a "window shopper." If I (know I) can't buy... either because I can't afford it... or because the merchandise isn't to my taste... I tend not to even look.

Even if I CAN buy, whether or not I go in depends on two things: (1) whether the "store" has anything I want... and (2) my experience with their "customer service." Of course, I realize the owner/management can't/don't want to always control their sales representatives/other customers... but after so many... mmmmmmm... bad shopping experiences, I tend to just do my shopping elsewhere. Just my "way," is all.

But I hold no personal illwill toward the store owner/management. They are absolutely free to run their business any way they want to.

We will now return to our previous programming... uh, thread topic...

Peace!

A slave of Christ,

Shellamar

If you'd rather not look at it, that is fine. I can understand you not wanting to talk about pedophilia, again. So, no need to explain the particulars anymore Shelby. I get it.

Anyone else get a chance to read it and would like to comment on it, feel free. I wish I could tell the guy he has a lot of support he doesn't even know about.

Don't do that, dear Skals (mornin' and peace to you!). It's deceitful. You're trying to attribute to me a motive that is not true at all. I have no problem discussing pedophilia. I absolutely think those who don't know/believe it, SHOULD know/be made aware of it. So that is not an issue at all... and your attempt to imply that it is... is... well, just wrong. You are trying to create an impression that is false.

So, please... don't. Because I explained why I don't want to go WHERE the information IS so as to access it. For MY purposes. I have no delusions that pedophilia doesn't exist within that harlot, perhaps all the way at the top. No surprise, at least not for ME. I don't need to read about it to know about it - she is unclean in EVERY sense, and of COURSE she allows harm to be done to children - she allows harm to be done to those who are CALLED to be chosen ones (who become so if they HEED the call and get OUT of her!). Why would anyone assume she doesn't harm/allow harm to be done to children, too? Of course, she does/will!

If you want to make the matter of issue HERE... then you could:

1. Post the actual information here, or
2. Privately invite the poster to do so here

If you don't want to/can't do that... or if the poster declines... well, there you go. But, I am not going to discuss HERE... things that are ONLY able to discussed with the OP THERE. What would be the point for me? Why "shop", if I can't "spend/buy"? Because it's in the window? What is the POINT? I KNOW there's a dress in the window... but I can't BUY it... so why give in to the "desire of [my] eyes"? Why not "keep [my] eye SIMPLE"? Reading it there doesn't allow for FULL discussion, including commenting/propounding questions, if desired... to the OP. And so... I am not interested.

On the other hand, folks, including you and/or the OP, are MORE than welcome to discuss what they will here, so long as it comports with our guidelines, including not challenging mod decisions and, understandably, not stating that your purpose FOR being here is to attack anyone in particular.

So, if you wish to consider THAT, then... we're golden. Otherwise, again, don't imply false motives to me. I don't like it and won't let such lie but will respond to make sure the matter is clear... and TRUE.

Now, you are more than welcome to get back to the real topic of your thread, if you wish.

Peace to you!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar

So long as it:

1. Doesn't violate the forum guidelines here; including

2. Is not done out of maliciousness, etc., either toward someone here, someone on another forum, or toward another forum in general; and/or

3. Doesn't violate the copyrights of anyone else and/or another forum...

WE wouldn't have a problem with it, dear Skals (peace to you!).

Regarding No. 3, the source site MIGHT have their own copyright protection disclaimers. Even if they don't, they might take offense, so I would suggest you consider doing the courteous thing... and checking with them, first. If they say yes, great! If not, well...

Alternatively, you might consider finding a way to request permission from the OP, because that will suffice. if the OP says it's okay... you don't need permission from anyone else.

Otherwise, we probably wouldn't allow it. First, in order to protect our own interests and avoid nay potential liability, and second, we have our own disclaimer that we want folks to respect, so blowing off others... well, that would be hypocritical...

Otherwise... no problem HERE.

Peace to you!

Your servant and a slave of Christ,

Shellamar
