Hi everybody.
Well, I've been lurking for a few weeks & have made a few posts, so it's time to bravely introduce myself some more...
I was raised in the religion, baptized & then DF'd in 1992. I live in sydney and youll be pleased to hear i have survived Armageddon (also known as the Hottest day on record for sydney 45.6C).
Ive never looked at any witness related stuff online, but my son showed me something about the conti case and i was so intrigued!!!! Following links led me to this & other websites....
Since then I have spent literally hours on the Internet discovering all this information. So many late nights/early mornings. Everything i remember is from 20 years ago, so its been shocking for me to read about all the changes/backflips/deceits of the Borg. And there's no book study group, whaaaat????
Discovering this community has meant discovering people who have had lives similar to mine, which has made me feel less isolated (and a bit emotional). I've never really spoken about my experiences. Mainly because its just so hard to explain to non JW.
im so happy to realize that there's so many of us out there.
its great to meet you all!
