I am going to start this debate of by saying that those of us who were raised in the so called truth, and I being one of them, can only come to terms with our past by accepting that our parents infected our minds like a virus infects a computer.
For example:
We wouldn't categorise children according to their parents' political stance, since they are too young to make up their minds about such matters. But they (JW) segregate them from the world. Whereby they are taught superstitions drawn from ancient scriptures of dubious origin, which promote a 'contradictory and poisonous system of morals'.
What I mean by this is that religious believes that are passed onto children from their parents is a virus that infects the young and impressionable mind imposing religion on young people who are to young to make up their minds by judging it for themselves.
Children are uniquely vulnerable and if they fail to question and shake off such superstition, they remain in a state of perpetual infancy. Inasmuch that we dare not question the authority of our parents.
How many of us who have left the Org had a real debate with our parents who are still believers over the fact that we were given no choice. Exactly not many of us.
There have been many books written on this subject, I for one endorse the ideal of Religion as being an absolute virus of the mind. A believe system of faith based on inept and unfounded promises rather than on scientific fact is almost obscene.
So would you join another religion? surely they are all the same.
