Should BrotherDan Be Encouraged To Stay Or Go?

Hi All,

I, for my part, strongly encourage BrotherDan to stay here on JWN and to the extent possible, contribute as needed depending on his schedule. I value his thoughful posts. Please, type and post, 'Yes, I agree' or 'No, I do not'

Neither. Why does it have to be yes or no? I respectfully say i don't think his presence should be the subject of a poll.

Dan has stated his position and is going to make his own decision for his own reasons.

That in itself is a marvelous testament to his growing independance and exercise of personal choices.

If he goes he will be missed by some, maybe not by others, his comments would be good to have stay, but it's not the end of the world if they dissapear too.

If he stays, he may be glad, he may not be.

It's up to him

all the best BrotherDan. May you find and live in peace.

I strongly encourage Dan :)

Personally I think he shouldn't come here for now, he has enough on his plate without coming here for a second helping.

Blessings in Christ,

If coming here is getting on his nerves too much, then he should stay away by all means.

It is his choice.We should not pressure him either way. Also there are Christian XJW boards if he wants to avoid atheist threads.

I think he needs to make his own personal decision without anyone trying to sway him one way or the other.

There is no question if he should or should not. Let him come and go as his pleases. This board serves its purposes differently for everyone, if he feels it's served his and it's time he moved on, so be it. I like BroDan and enjoyed his postings regardless of which way his belief system leaned.

None of us have the right to tell someone else if they should stay or go here. If that were the case, lets block all the apologetics too, they're the ones that this question should be asked.

... just my opinion of course...

I am impressed by how many people on this board have showed BrotherDan such great sympathy. However -

As for me, I think I am completely worn out with the pity-party that has gone on with this for days now on several threads.

I am with OUTLAW and others - I strongly suspect we are being played for patsies by a drama-queen. The plea to Lady Lee "please delete my account so that I cannot post here again against my will" was the final straw.

I can understand brotherdan and where he's at..... his loved one is a captive of a concept... and if he continues here and is found out, he's df'd for sure, and his wife will either lose her mind or leave him...or worse. My guess is that he's torn because he loves it here, its a big part of his life, and the plea to delete his account is his way of saying that he really wants to be here but he can't and doesn't want to be tempted, but he still loves the place and the people here.

I went through the same thing with an ex-JW Pharisee Bible-worshiping forum very recently..... so I know how it is.

"Encouraging" him one way or another is fine, he still is going to do what is best for what he's going through right now. I really feel for the guy. Being trapped in the JW cult with a love one or loved ones who still believe the shit is a rough place to be....

Maybe that kind of forum is where BrotherDan needs to be - he has denounced practically everybody here as Atheist God-Haters.
