    hi there, i'm Nikitaeve and id just like to say hi to everyone here. i used to be a witness and was one for about nine years but I still regard everyone with the warmest of feelings and I still believe the teachings. A little bit about myself; Im from England. I have three children and five crazy cats and Im a writer. Anyway, hope to hear from some of you soon.

    Hi, and welcome to the board! Read a few of the threads in the active topics, you may change your mind about their teachings.

    and I still believe the teachings.

    So, why'd you leave them then?

    Hello wlcome aboard, I am not here to change your mind about beliefs but I am sure as a writer you should have alot to offer. Many people use the board for a variety of reasons, some to vent, soem to find comfort, some to expose the falsehoods and hypocrisy, soem to establish what the Bible says, some to just unwind. For whatever reasons you are here, I hope you enjoy and enlighten us with what you have to offer. I hope this post finds your three children doing well and your cats. Thanks for posting

    Welcome, nikitaeve.

    I was going to ask the same question Poppers did. It doesnt sound like you have left anything other than a location, in that you no longer go to the Kingdom Hall but yet retain the teachings. How do you cope with the dichotomy? It must be very painful for you to tear yourself in two like that.

    Perhaps this will be a place that will help bring things together. Glad you joined us.

    Nice to welcome you to this board - I'm from England too.

    I didn't join this forum for a while after I left the organisation but I find it a very welcoming and diverse place. I look forward to finding out a bit more about you and your circumstances.
