Oh well. I'm sorry I posted that. Didn't mean to fuel a bad fire.
btw - the Watchtower and Awake do not give accurate portrayal of *why* people leave. The WTS makes every attempt to villify any member who leaves. What I have learned from this site is that there are alot of people who have left for reasons other than 'just could not live up to bible standards' or 'too haughty'. And by far, the majority do *NOT* start up their own religion - a tale I was told many, many times about DA'd people.
-Aude.
