    I didn't read all the replies, so maybe this was already addressed...

    But your subject question was, "Shall I continue in the truth?"

    Why would you leave the truth if it REALLY is the truth?? You are more devoted to a culture than to what truth is, because pursuing truth will always lead to making uncomfortable or painful choices. Already, what you call the "truth" is inconvenient, and you want to do something else.

    So... decide if the truth matters at all. Or if it matters at all to you.

    If the truth really isn't important to you, then please don't call anything the "truth" because you don't know/don't care to be sure.

    If the truth does matter to you, you must discern if the JWs alone really have the "truth".

    I am convinced that they do not, despite their passionate assertions that they do.

    The thing is- you have to determine what is real and what is concept. Real is a person who unselfishly loves you and will care for you. Sin, an organization, obedience are all concepts. Problems come when people choose concepts over reality.

    Of course, always give yourself enough time to detemine whether or not your initial impressions are correct.

    If you believe in god... consider this your sign.

    This is a board primarily for people who made the VERY decision you are struggling with. If you decide to leave the Witnesses, you will find LOTS of support here.

    Thanks to all friends with the support and advice...I knew the answer would be to find the truth myself, it's just taking some time for me..I guess. I am certain you all felt d same way in d past, difficult in realizing d facts r there and opinions suggest such. I am positive in my thinking about my future with a man, I just wanted to see if d discoveries I found and will further accept is d right decision.

    U can call it new born or in d middle or ??? I just hope and pray for me and everyone to b able to enjoy life with certainties and the faith that I have is to the only God. But I was just wondering why there aren't any real forums with real JW? Is it because of d lack of interest in finding the real world and real truth or am I d only 1 questioning my faith in such a way that it depresses me? I am only 35 and hope to be able to discover more, afterall it's not the end of the world, right?

    I only hope the man I will be in d future will have fine traits, loving and most of all understanding...BTW I told my close friends all about the support I am getting from this forum , he asks me to thank all of u. God bless.

    I will look into this forum once in a while.
