I'm 18 years old and I started having doubt last year while my two olders sisters had to shun my parents. That's where I saw all the hypocrisy of this religion. I think that my story is a particular one because I'm inactive as a jw since I was 12 because my parents left the thruth at this period but I still had those feeling of culpabilities. Fortunately, I decided to free my mind from this jail, instead of going back to this false religion.
Black holes are where God divided by zero.
I'm 23 and I became innactive a year ago. Over the past two years I became less and less happy with "the truth" and decided just to leave altogether. Since then I have graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in CIS, and have more opportunities to grow and progress than I could never dream of when I was a Ministerial Servant in the congregation. I don't go here on JW.com that much, not becuase I'm disinterested but becuase I don't have the time.I really need any support from my experience as a JW, but I would still love to talk, and have a pen pal.
