  I think the WBTS is absolutely full of people that "go along to get along", and constantly compromise their integrity, and fail to take a stand for what they know deep down in the truth.

  I think this is what is taught to the children and some continue it through generations and others refuse to continue the madness of it and leave.

  Scarred, I know that is very true.

  And it is also valid as a great lesson learned from the WT experience.

  What is painful here is to see that the tradition of being a WT slave will continue with this person and be passed on to offspring that come along while this person lives a compromised life. The "lesson learned" has, sadly, not made life happier.

  I think, as Jeff said earlier, we must look at ourselves and ask what human frailities we have that made us give up our lives for a lie?

  Scarred for life

  My reason for being on this board is to try and find the answer of why my parents gave up their lives for a lie. I left when I was 15. I refused to live a lie. I am haunted by my parents and many other relatives though. And I am haunted by the wasted time that my family spent on this cult when we could have been spending family time in a constructive, productive ways and building strong relationships. What a loss!
