Hello Simon and thank you for accepting my registration. This is my first post here. At some point, when I become acclimated to the site I will post an introduction thread. For now, I just want to thank you and the community for being here.
I am not and have never been a baptized JW. I do, however, have two family members who are and I have begun scouring the web for practical information regarding TWBTS, Inc. to help me learn how to begin breaking the spell they are under.
I studied decades ago but could not bring myself to commit even though my parents did and pressured me to do the same. Recently, I thought I was divinely led back to the JW's and started a new Bible study. My study lasted six weeks. I terminated it 2 days ago when I learned about the UN/NGO incident, which led me here (and elsewhere on the net.)
I am grateful to have found and been accepted into your community. I hope I will be permitted to remain a member. If not, I will still read the comments from the membership as they have already provided me with more information than I ever thought possible to find.
Regards,
Wholly
