"I have read that many XJW's become Born-Again Christians. What's this religion? For me it sounds really mishmash. As JW's we were far from these beliefs, or have I missed something?"
I think Born-Againers have some appeal because they do two things that JW's didn't: (1) they emphasize Jesus a lot more (2) they emphasize the heavenly hope to those who thought they couldn't have one. But then one would have to swallow other things like the Trinity belief. Never appealed to me.
