Were you a "Born-In", or were you "Converted"? (page 5)

Kudra

My mom got baptized when I was ?? 8 to 10- I can't remember.

Thank god my dad didn't ever believe or convert.

I was a good dub kid and got baptized in 1994 (or 5?) at the age of 18. Although I kind of had troubles believing some of the more ridiculous stuff the dubs said, like worldly people=evil or any of their stuff about science.

Stopped going to meetings 2003. Finally got the courage to look at "apostate stuff" a month or so before I joined JWD ~2005 or so.

Very happy now!

Basically born in my mother joined when I was a baby. Was df'd in 1980 and have never been in a KH since. Best thing that ever happened to me, even though I lost my whole family. But still worth it for the peace of mind.

Born in, 4th generation on both sides

Baptized at 15, pioneered at 18 for 5 years. Got married and had kids and came to my senses...

Haven't been to a mtg in 3 months and never went to memorial. Broke the "news" to my sister last night and was told that I am considered dead to the family. Nice loving religion they've got going... (did I mention I am not even df'd, I have just faded and left on my own and they still have the nerve to treat me like I don't exist...)
