    Between us, here on this forum, there must be 10,000 years of experience as witnesses before we came out of the religion.

    Anything I would say as to 'how' to do it, has been said better than I could say it. Just know we are there for you - the healing will take a time period. It has taken me about three years to get where I am, but of course I had to erase 40+ years of indoctrination. Stick with us - we are here to help.

    God Bless you -

    Jeff

    You may call your local Library and ask if they have the book CoC by Ray Franz.

    Fly & Elinor--Welcome! Yes it is extremely overwhelming at first to realize all the lies that we believed without question.

    But you are young, and have not started a family yet so you are lucky! Take it one day at a time. There is an abundance of information available now that your eyes have been opened to the real world.

    I use to be into ALL the bibles. I believe that one is one of the toughest ones to get for free since it is copyrighted. Don't think it's available for free though.

    Fly, welcome to the board,

    I wanna have that NIV bible, anyway to download it off the net?

    Go here and download a bunch of bibles: http://www.e-sword.net/extras.html E sword is a great program and its free. You can also import the New World Translation bible into the program, I'd have to send you the zip file for that.
