Thank you for the warm welcome,
I was a member of Applewood congregation in Mississauga, and another one in the same hall I can't remeber the
name. My brother became a member first and then I got intrested. I quickly took all the doctrine since I didn't have
anything in place. If they said there was no hell that was fine with me...I didn't care about that sort of stuff, with AIDS
really hitting it made perfect sense not to use blood products at the time.
At about two years in I started to realize that it wasn't the perfect world with the perfect people. I liked all the dinner
parties and community and I just sort of slowly drifted away. I had made a few friends and I really felt for some of the
family people since they were so tied up in all the bull XXXX.
I was trying to make a living and do other things and all the time studing and meeting, service ....it was imposible to
have a real life, which I guess is the whole idea.
I would have been 24 at baptism and studied for a year or so before that, so I was the right age for this sort of mind control.
My childhood home was sort of broken up with lots of problems so I guess I was ripe for the net.
Thanks again for the hellos. Marty
