Yes Kaytee, Trev and myself, at differrent times, were fooled by the pretty pictures. We didn't see the ugly reality of being a jw till much later, when it was too late to back out.
I'd like to get people like Rutherford and Knorr on a polygraph. Unless the machine was faulty, they'd fail the test miserably, especially booze Rutherford, who after all made most of the crap they preach up himself, whereas the others who followed him merely refined it.
