I am 53 [left at 48]. My best half is 51 [left at 46].
Looks to me like lots of folks wake up late 40's or 50. Interesting.

I am 40 and my hubby is 41. He's been out for years now. I"ve been out for 7 months. Wish I had figured it out sooner.

It takes the average person only about 10 years to break through the religious hoax. After that, it is about guilt and the hassle of disconnecting from the religion. And the witlesses are no different.
Of course, with the witlesses having so many blatant discrepancies between the Bible and the organization, more of them are going to start finding out that they are a scam long before then. Some are even still children, but are forced by parents to get baptized early under threat of being cut off from all "friends". Which leads me to believe they are going to start pushing children to get baptized before they reach age 7, so they cannot find out that it is a scam before it's too late.
Whatever numbers we arrive at here, it is trending down--I wonder how many are only 10 or 12, under force from parents to continue field circus and to get baptized, even though they no longer believe (or, for that matter, never believed in the first place).
