    1- Were you raised a witness or not?

    2-If you were, was your family very "theocratic" or not so much?

    3- Where do you stand on religion now? Christian, pagan, atheist/agnostic, undecided...

    1. mom caught the truuf when I was 6, 1981. So to this point we had holidays/B-days.

    2. She studdied with the PO's daughter, also an Elder's wife. They were former bethel couple, did pionere and circuit work. Last name Lovinger (sp??) We had spotless meeting attendance and even as newbies we sat in the front row. My dad was not too enthused about the JW, but he went along with it for her. She had four little kids. The JWs were impressed with how us kids behaved ourselves, sitting right in the front row. Then divided house, blah blah, dad DF. As a teen my friends were pioners and MS. I'm proud of the fact that I never pionered.

    3. I'm Taoist with pagan leanings, partner is Wiccan. Family out of borg, mom still mourns for JW lifestyle.

    So, what's your theory?
