    hi everyone this is my first time to do any like send an email to strangers but from reading a lot of your comments i feel

    i can talk heres my history i joined the jws in the early 80s i was with them for about 4 yrs i was in centeral in dublin

    i left at about the time of john may and martin merryman and others although i couldnt fully accept thier rules when the split came it was easy for me to leave and now back to the present ! incedentally i always believed i was wrong so for over 20yrs i had a guilty concience a couple of months started to think about jehovah again so i started to put my affairs in order but i didnt consider what my and chrildrens reactions would be but thats for another day suffice to say one of my sons was wise enough to search the net and found raymond franz book crisis of concience i read everything i could get hold of inc this site i thank GOD i can now search for him without every scripture in the bible accusing me looking forward toreading your responces AMAN

    Welcome Aman! I am glad you have seen the real truth of this organization and can now start looking forward to a real life. I personally feel that all religion is man-made and totally unrequired in fulfilling one's own Spirituality.

    I'm glad you had the courage to join us here and I look forward to your input.

    Welcome.

    Dublin is a beautiful city!

    The GB treated John May and Martin Merriman very disrespectfully.

    Then again, what could they say to them that would have made any sense?

    Welcome AMAN! Whew! I'm very glad your son found Ray's book and that you read it and found out the truth. I guess this is like emailing strangers - that made me smile. I hadn't thought of it like that. I'm glad you did.

    Good luck!
