    I just saw Simone, this morning from her home in Bergenbach. She looks great for 94 yrs young! She answered some questions from young children. Talk about survival and protection from Jehovah! He did not remove the trial she faced but helped her to focus on the bigger picture! She and her parents survived. The experience of her sent to a prison reform school and what she went through for 2 yrs. No talking, not allowed. Those who broke this rulr wwrs punished extremely. The children were from 5 yrs of age up to 14 yrs old. The beatings, the rape and other horrors. But never at any time was this dear lady punished by or raped by those in charge of the reform prison. Her experience has courage and deep faith in Almight God, whose name is Jehovah! Psalms 83:18 (LORD is a title not a personal name)

    Never was she rude or disrespectful towards the Catholic faith. People need to READ her book for more clarification and understanding. English (clearly) isn't her 1st language so you lose some context when she speaks. Read the book ppl, you'll will learn so much and have a clearer understandingof this discussion.

    I was brought up Catholic but I'm sick and tired of all these religious differences. I have no inclination to read the Bible either. I never ask people what their beliefs are, I accept them as they are.

    amazing personal story.....such firmly held beliefs! does show the dark side of the 'christain's' who threw aside the first commandment!!!! such faith . the powers of the drums of war to drown out...'love one another' --wasn't that crucial commandment!!..JW's remembered! good for them.

      It is more than having a religious belief. The witnesses were the only prisoners who could sign a letter to be released from the camps. They had to say they renounced gods kingdom as the only hope for humanity. Very few signed the letter and most remained in tne camps despite the terrible conditions, rather than comprise their faith. That's faith.

      She has nothing to be ashamed of.
      The Nazis and the Pope/Vatican had a very cordial relationship during the holocaust years.
      Priests blessed Hitlers Army and encouraged them to fight the good fight for Germany not caring if Catholics were killing Catholics.
      Tell me of any Jehovah's Witnesses who have encouraged war or praised the killing of other witnesses?
      You can't because it goes against our beliefs and what the Bible teaches.
